Egyptian Hall, Piccadilly, September 21, 1844.

In addition to the lamp-posts of the great metro-
polis serving as direction posts to the receiving houses of
, the General and Twopenny Posts, the truly excellent
plan of using them to point out the streets has been
'adopted by the parish of St. Mary-le-Strand, by fixing
a square of ground glass instead of plain in the side of
the lamp facing the Strand, and the name of the street
4:r court at the end of which the lamp is placed, painted
on it in large black letters, thus obviating the difficulty
hitherto experienced, at night in particular, of finding
the street wanted. To foreigners and those unacquainted
With London, the plan, when adopted throughout the
metropolis, must prove most beneficial.
