POST-OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY, for
1844, in 1,860 closely-printed imperial octavo pages,
price 30s. The earliest copy of the work has been but one
month issued, and the following reviews have appeared in flee
leading metropolitan journals:—
Sun, December 7,1813.—" The present numl er extends to 1,893
pages, and embraces a more comprehensive detail of the vast ma-
chinery which London exhibits than any work of the kind yet pub-
lished. The compiler has confined his labours rather more to sim-
plifying former articles, with indispensable additions to which
circumstances give rise, than to increase the work by new subjects of
reference: in fact, these appear to be nearly exhausted. A slight
glance at the index will show what a va=t field is included in this
multifarious work. sa c there find the following headings, and sub-
joined to these are branches extending to every department :—Court
of Chancery, Admiralty, Army Agents, Assurance Companies,
Banking Directory, City Directory, Commercial and Professional
Directory, Conveyance Directory, Court Directory, Dock Con panics,
I aw Directtry, Parliamentary Directory, Postal Directory, Public
Companies, Ra sways, Street Directory, Trades Directory, Universal
Rates of Postage, and, in short, every species of information that
not only men of business, but pe. sons in all ranks of life, in the
country as well as in London, will find of great service in their daily
transactions. It would be tedious to give specimens of the manner
in which this valuable publication has been arranged, and we may
therefore say that, as regards the Street Directory,' the Postal
Directory,' and the Conveyance Directory,' without including the
varied information on almost every commercial transaction, it is the
most copious and correct Work of the kind yet published."
The lines, December 7, The London Pos, Office Di-
rectory' fir the coming year has just passed through the press, and
DOW forms one of the most useful v. lumes which at this season make
their appearance. Useful is a‘propei term when applied to this pub-
-1 cation, but the term indispensable would be equally appropriate, for
to merchants, bankers, and to all persons in business, the book is so
important that to be without it is almost to be in a stag of ignorance
about what it concerns every man commercially connected or em-
ployed to know. This work, though it .has little of the pretence of
the annuals,' as they are called, has as much real merit as any of
them, and though not precisely the book for the boudoir or the draw-
ing-reom, is the proper annual I'm the counting-house and the shop.
It has been got up with great industry, great labour, great research,
and great expense, and the result is a book of reference tbr every-day
life, and a mass of valuable and accurate information. The volume
for 1844, in addition to all the intelligence conveyed in the volumes
of this year and past years, contains in that portion of it called the
Pos al Directory,' a digest of the most recent arrai•gements in a
comprel.ensive form, so arranged that an easy reference can be made
to whatever under that head the inquirer may want to find out. This
is more p..rticularly to be seen in the tables of Universal Rates on
Postage.' There are other improvements which wi.l be easily seen if
consulting the various divisions of the book, and the whole is so well
arranged that to discover what is sought for is a matter very easily
accomplished. Accura y and fidelit , the great requisites in a publi-
cation of this kind, are visible throughout, and great credit is sue t
the compilers."
Morning Chronicle, December 18, 1843 This is the 45th year of
the publication of this most bulky and most useful of the annuals.
It has yearly been growing in fulness and consequent usefulness, end
it now contains a carefully arranged and elaborated mass of informa-

in London can reasonably expect to find ; and, by extensive addi-
tions, an I the most laborious attention to minute de ails, this Direc-
tory is now ma 'e o perfect, accurate, and comprehensive, as to leave,
as we is agine, no room for the exercise of further ingenuity in the
way of improvement. Every department has been so enlarged as to
render it certain that the required information will be found,
and the system of classification is so well digested and carried
into detail, that, large as the volume is, any si .gle name, or any
item of intelligence, embodied in its multifarious contents,
may be found without an instant's loss of time. Another merit
is, that she information required is never given impeilect. If,
for instance, you look for the name of any banker in the United
Kingdom, you will not only find it with the proper address, but a'so
with the house added with which it has conneetioas in London. So
in every other department; you miss nothing you want, and find
lime • you could not reasonably expect. Among the judicious im.
pi ovements of this year are the addition of .0,000 new names ; a
valuable enla gement of the Con, eye nce Directory,' which now
comprehends every kind of transit made up to the latest date, an 1
the most recent regulations in the Post Office, with tables of the
sates of f reign postage. In its complete ;haste, with an excel-
lent map, a dozen directories in one, with eve r • dwelling in the
metropolis and suburbs marked, with the name of every house.
holder recoreed, and the occupation of every merchant and trader
defined, it presents an example of what may be effacted by the union
of enterprise, capital, skill, and insiustsy when tiny have the dissec-
tion of a city like London for their object, and the certain' y of i s
universal patronage for their reward—the certainty, because in truth
the volume is a public boon, and as ne,essary to all persons engaged
in trade as the commonest implements of the counting-house or the
shoo, as a day-book, for instance, or an ink stand."
Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, December 14, 1513.—" his
huge annual has again made its appearance. The volume for 1544
is larger than the I ist. This is caused in part by the late increase of
buildings is London, but in a greater degree by additions to its use-
fulness. The Commercial, Court, Street, and ether Directories are
considerably enlarged, Ind so classified as to cause no loss of time in
reference. The Parliamentary Directory' embraces the latest
change, in the reps-. sentation—namely, those of the City and Sails.

all the inhabitants of every street, square, court, and
place within the metropolis, and for some miles round
from Clapham to Ball's-pond, and from Stratford to Not'
ting-hill. This list is, as, indeed, may be said of very
many others in the volume, unique. It g.ves the inhabitants of
every place, nobility and gentry, merchants and shopkeepers,
all at one view. 'Phis is a thing that, for obvious rea,ons, no other
work has attempted A description of the local ty is likewise fur-
nished, and as in each street those which iteersect it are accurately
described, the entire, as well as being a copious Directory, partakes
cf the character of a general map. We have heard before of Mr.
al'Adam, the colossus of roads; but this may be truly called the
colossus of streets. Had such a thing been in existence alter the
fire of London, a gene rat and available registry of property would
have been at hand, and, should ft happen that a copy survive the
inetrepolis it so well ties ribei, the future historian or statistician
might fom its p ges olyain an excellent idea of the wea'th, extent,
and magnificence of the greatest commercial city the word has ye:
s en, and of :he pursuits of its inhabitants. We observe that in the
Conveyance Directory several taousat d new places have been intro-
need, with all the newest railway informati n The cost of the
production of such a book must have been enormous, aril to repay
the energebc proprietors the ,ale mutt be very great ii deed. Of this
there can, however, be little doubteas in any place of real business it
cannot be dispensed with without continued inconvenience."
Mining Journal, December 9, 184:3 —" This Directory for the
forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research
in the procuration of an immense mass of valuable in for , atien,
and of great talent in its classification and arrangement, so as to be
of the utmost use, and readily available. It presents a complete
Post-office vcde mecum, and abounds in particulars of such univer-
sal importance sto become an indispensable requis to for the office
of the banker, merchant, or tradesman. The accuracy and perfect
arrangement of this work are deserving of the highest praise, and
the sale must indeed be considerable to compensate for the ex; ense
and labour entailed on its produc ion."
Spectator, December 9, la 4 immense volume still con.
tinues adding to its facts and information, though the addition of
new features seems to have stopped at present from the exhaustion
of subjects. To what extent additional minutiae are added, may be
guessed by upwards of 100 p ges more of large and closely-printed
matter being given in the present volume."
John Bull, Decemb. r 23, 1813.—. Nothing less than a Monster
Review' could do complete justice to his' Monster Volume,' which
is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy.
Among an altnost in tetinite number of other useful things, it com-
prises a complete Oirectory,'street Pirectory,' ' Com-
mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' s L:w Directory,' Court
Directory," Po-tat Direc ory,' City Directory,' Conveyance
Dire tory,' Banking Directors-,'&c. In shot t there is nothing con-
nected with this huge metropolis in the way of sir-ction which will
not be found here. It is mentioned that 40,000 names appear in
this volume, which either have not been in print at all, or not at the
same addresses, whsle the ' :Street Directory,' which last. year was
comprised in .6 pages, now occupies 436 pages. In the Postal
Directory,' the latest regulations have been arranged in the part
beaded' Universal Rates of Postage,' in a form at once comprehen-
sive and easy of reference."
The Sentinel, December 31, 1843. • " We were surprised to see, by
an advertisement, that so old a favourite as • Robson's Directory'
was to be discontinued ; but after an examinatlon of the Post office
Directory for 1844, we should be equally aston,shed if any book t f
the same class could be found successfully to compete with it, there
being uowards of 1,600 pages of imperial octievo, closely printed,
containing more than 100,003 names. Not only does its bulk give an
idea of the enormous increase of the metropolitan population, but the
many improvements in its arraneements are such as to impart the
most important facilities in the expeditious dispatch of business.
The discontinuance or the practice of making class distinctions in the
' Street Lists' will be found a great convenience. The information
g:ven on the subject of the Post-office arrangements has been greatly
simplified, while the Map of London, which accompanies the work,
and which has been prepared expressly fin it, extends to a radius in-
cluding the immense suburbs of the metropolis, with its most recent
improvements."

REPORT of the BRITISH COLLEGE of
IIEA LTII, New-road, London, for 1843.
In the year 1823 the above F.stablishment was founded by James
Morison, the Hygeist, who, t gether with a great nutnber of indivi.
duals, became members thereof, in order the more effectually to
carry out those pr nciples in medicine known as the " Hygeian s-
tern," which have from interested motives been so violently opposed
by the Faculty, but which they the Hygeists), notwithstanding,
scientionslY believe to be fouwed in truth. 'lime, the test
of all
theories, has re: st certainly proved the truth of that system. The
Hygeian agents in different parts of the world, who are highly r
spectab'e persons, have all concurred in their reports as to the cure
of disease by Morison's Medicines, when many of the parties had
been given over as incurable under the ordinary medical treatment ;
these facts are on record throughout the different parts of the globe,
and, therefore, Hygeists are justified in denouncing the present sys-
tem of doctors (tie organic pathology) a' being altogether founded in
error, which, we submit, is empty proved by the fact of doctors being
at this day quite at variance with one another, both as regards the
theory of disease and its practice--hence have we the Water Cur
Homoeopathy, Mesmerism, &c. The fact of medical men being gene-
rally persons of education is not of Welt' at all conclusive of their
being the most competent to cure aisease, -if it can be proved, as we
say it can, that, from interested motives, the medical schools have
diverged from the path of simple nature, and for profit have made
the science of medicine one of confusion, not to be understood by even
the wisest man that ever lived; in proof of which assertion we refer
the public to the medical works of the day, which contain the most
flagrant contradictions and absurdities. Mr. Morison, on the other
hand, proceeding upon a simple, but true and natural theory—
namely, that all iiiseases, however they may show themselves, have
their origin in an imoure state of the blood aed fluids, so that there
is, in fact, but one disease—wiministers at once the Vegetable Uni-
versal Medicine ; and he, and those connecte.l with his 5) stem, have
invariably found,* tha' when the disease was curable it has been
cured by that simple process, whilst, if the same disease had been
submitted to warned doctors, they would have tried, perhaps innu.
merable prescriptions, all dignified with Latin names, and, alter all,
have left the patient where they found him, if not worse. We say
these are facts of iv ry day occurrence, and 'hat those who will in-
quire into this :nip rtaut question will find them such. We are
aware t hat the practice of a system like the Morisonian w. uld not
sufficiently remunerate doctors, since every person might thus become
his own physician. The public will, therefore, not be much sur, rised that
the Faculty should hare adopted a system founded on organic prin.
ciples, as if the body were a piece of patchwork, which consequently
obliges all persons (except Hygeists) to have recourse to them in
cases of disease ; hence we see, in almost every street, eye and ear
infirmaries, and other establishments for treating different parts of
the body.
Iu conclusion, we have to lay before the public an extract from the
last Report of the Exeter Hygeian Dispensary, together with Lady
Grey's last letter, and the amount paid by us for stamps to the Bri-
tish Governmen , &c., all of which we submit is corroborative of the
foregoing allegation, namely, that the present system of doctors in
treating diseases on organic principles is altogether erroneoes.

• At the Exeter Hygeian Dispensary upwards of 4,000 poor per.
sons have been restored to health by the Hygeian medicines, m..ny
of whom had been declared incurable in the Exeter hospitals under
doctors' treatment. The Dispensary, situate at 91, Fore-street-hill,
Exeter, has now been in full operation during the last eight years,
and is under the direction of Richard Tothill, Esq., to whom the
public is referred as regards the proceedings at that Institution.
Case of Cure reported by L:aly Sophia Grey.
Sandiway, December 7, 1843.
Gentlemen,—By the wish of our labourer, 0. Greaves, I write to
say that he wishes it to be known how greatly he has benefited by
taking your most excellent medicines. When we came to this place
he was a poor sickly young man, so often tied tip with violent attacks
of asthma, that the farmers would not employ him, and Mr. Booth
Grey gave him little jobs when able to do anything. I instantly per-
suaded him to take your Pills in small doses, alternately No. 1 and
No. 2. He Ii s done so, never exceeding seven pills at a dose, and is
now a very he lthv man, and ab'e to wo-k like any other labourer,
and not affected by every change in the weather. I have known se-
veral that have received great benefit from your Pills in this most 014.
tressing complaint. I have several bad cafes in hand, :rid no words
can describe the blossing this medicine is to the poor. I have seve.
ral patients I have never seen, but send the advice by letter; but am
not deceived, as I have friends who watch their progress. As for my.
self I should have been dead years ago if it had not been for your
Pills and the mercy of my Heavenly Father.
I remain, Gentlemen, yours sincerely obliged,
SOPHIA GREY.

I regret to infvm you that the cholera is making great ravages
in the inte.ior, nd in a part of the black town calle4 Parcherry.
In Madras, during the last nine or ten days, many have fallen

Copy :—To Mr. R. L. Pereira.
Si beg to inform you that one of my relations, a boy 12 years
of age, having been bitten one night, at about half-past eight o'clock,
by a venQmous snake, called by the natives Cataverien, or Carpet
Snake, abou twelve o'clock his whole body became swollen to an
enormous size, and he commenced vomiting blood and rice, accom-
parried with an oppression in the chest, and in the last stage. I
h ve, in the absence of other medicines, given him a dose of twelve
of Morison's No. 2 Pills from the last purcha'e I made from you, and
the boy, half an hour after he had taken the pills, threw up bile and
had a feW motions, whereby he felt instant relief, which gave him
good rest till the next morning, and when he awoke he still
fe t heavy symptoms, upon which a medical practitioner, a
relative of the patient, prepared a draught, and desired the
boy to take it; he peremptorily. refused, and said he would take
no other medicine but the pills he had taken before, because he
benefited thereby ; accordingly, another dose of nine pills
was given him ; about half an hour after he vomited some (green
stuff and had three gr en motions, and entirely recovered. I beg
also to bring to your notice that, notwithstanding the most extra.

fur these pills I IF.,uld to this very day suffer with the severe pain
in the pit of my stomach which used to come on me very fre-
quently for several years before I used them ; in fact, many in my
neighbourhood who knew me to have suffered with the pain, and
that I had cured myself of it with these pills, flock to me fir aid
whenever they are taken lli, and I am obliged to give it to them,
grat.s in some instances. Hoping that, cc these pills are now be.

AFFECTING AND FATAL OCCURRENCE.—We regret
to have this week to record the death of a youth named 111a-
plestone, under circumstances "of a peculiarly afflicting
nature. The unfortunate lad was in the employ of Messrs.
King, merchants, of this city, and formed one of the crew
of the African Queen. The Queen arrived in the roads on
Tuesday, after a long voyage on the coast of Africa, and
young Maplestone went aloft for the purpose of taking down
the Union Jack. He came down the shrouds with the flag
on his arm, and when he had nearly gained the deck he said
to one of the sailors, " There's old England at last; let us
give three cheers for home !" That home, however, he was
never to find, for as he cheered, the wind, which was fresh,
caught the folds of the flag, and in endeavouring to secure it he
was blown overboard. Every effort was made by the captain
and crew to rescue the lad, but, alas ! in vain ; ke buffetted the
billows for a little time, and at last sank, entangled in the flag.
He had on a thick monkey jacket, which no doubt prevented
him from making effectual exertions to save himself. The
body of the poor fellow has not yet been recovered. He was
much beloved, and the sad interest respecting his fate is in-
creased by the fact of his having died in view of his native
land, which, after having breathed the pestilental air of the
Bonny shore, he only saw to bless, and bid farewell to.—Bris-
tol Times.

DESTRUCTION OF TIIE CONTAGION OF THE PLAGUE.—
A Committee of Russian medical authorities have been
making experiments in Egypt on the destruction of the
contagion of the plague by means of hot air. The
woollen articles ,)f clothing were worn by persons deci-
dedly affected by the disease for 24 howl, exposed to a
heat of 144 deg. to 167 dog. Fahr. in a heated room, and
were then worn by persons in perfect health who had
held quarantine in disinfected clothing. These persons
(56 in number) wore the woollen clothing during a fort-
night, and not ime of them became subject to the plague
for several weeks after the experiment.—Medical Ga-
