LITERARY.GAZETTE, DECEMBER 1, 1849,

Talking of Annuals, this is the real and veritable Triton of the
Minnows—the genuine useful Repository, the unquestionable Pro-
phetic Almanack, that will guide to thousands of unknown events.
Of its bulky and most intelligent predecessor we observed, that it
could only belong to, and be produced in England; we ought,
perhaps, to have said, in London. We need not repeat our praise
of the industry employed (it must be constantly, from year's end to
year's end), ner our wonder at the mass of minute information thus
collected into one grand volume—a very mountain of distinct par-
ticles I But we must point attention to the lateness of the date to
which this information is brought up. Incidents and changes not
yet a fortnight old are enumerated here with the same precision as
if they had taken place at midsummer. Fifty years' practice has
indeed led to perfection,

ATLAS, NOVEMBER 24, 1849

A stranger would take a week to trace the increase of London
within the last few years. In this most unique of publications he
may see it at a glance Year after year the volume continues en-
larging, till the once modest tome bids fair to become the most
portly octavo ever sent out from tile press. After the reader has
done admiring the astounding immensity of the metropolis, and the
enormous multiplicity of its trades, companies, and buildings, he may
begin to admire the stupendous labour and enterprise with which a
private undertaking like this is begun and carried on. The present
volume is on the plan of former years—a plan combining so much
utility to every one as scarcely to need Improvement. The publica-
tion is carried down to the latest moment ; several important
changes being registered which occurred as late as the 13th of this
present month. This digest of the immensity of London is much
snore than a mere mercantile convenience. As a statistical account,
it has the highest value, forming, In a.any respects, one of the most
extraordinary books in the world.
