NATIONAL LOAN FUND LIFE ASSUR-
AN•CE SOCIETY,

which the work has evidently been got up cannot but recommend
it to very extensive public patronage. A considerable quantity of
matter not contained in its predec.ssors has been added to this publi-
! cation, and the whole is neatly and cleverly printed."
Morning Post, December 9, 1843.—" The new edition of the Cost
Office London Directory' for the ensuing year has just been com-
pleted, being the 45th anneal publication. It contains the names of
a vast number of new people engaged in commerce and trade of
every description. No relaxation appears to have taken place in the
efforts ofthe proprietors to render this a most useful and indispen-
sable volume. The amalgam ition of the nobility, gentry, merchants,
and traders in the Street Directory' is a most excellent plan, and
the Law Counts and Parliamentary divisions have been corrected tip
to the most recent possible date ; the latter, especially, are brought
down to a period as recent as the Salisbury election. The
Postal Directory' contains the latest regulations, and appears to
have been arranged in a form at once comprehensive and easy of
reference."
Morning Herald. December 6, 1843 —" This Directory may be
considered a ne plus ultra in its way. Like Aaron's rod when
changed into a serpent, it has swallowed up all that resembled it, its
principal antagonist, the Directory of Robson, having officially suc-
cumbed to its superior size and en'arged contents. When we men-
tion th it it contains nearly 9,000 closely printed pages of reference to
every conceivable subject that can affect the necessities of the London
resident or visitor, we have only indicated a small part of its value,
which, to be properly appreciated, must be examined with more
minuteness than we have space to detail. To one new feature we
we may, however, direct attention—viz., to that part which contains
the ' Postal Directory,' where a digest will be found, compiled from
the ni,st authentic saurces, of the recent treaties with foreign Powers.
The list entitled Universal Rates of Postage' is a most successful
attempt to produce them in a form at once comprehensive and easy
of reference. Kelly's Directory is, indeed, not only the largest that
we have ever seen, butovithout question, the most perfect."
Morning Advertiser, December 8, 1843.—" The 45th annual pub-
lication of this most useful work h s just appeared, and, having
made a carefnl examination of its contents, we feel it to be an act of
justice to the proprietor to say that the statement made in the preface
as to the great exertions which have been made to render the 'edi-
tion for 1814 worthy of the largest commercial city in the world, is
fully borne out. Great additions have been made in the present
edition as compared with its immediate predecessor, albeit the latter
itself was on so vast a scale. The increase applies chiefly to the
Street,' Commercial,' 'Trades," Law,' and Court' Directories.
It would be difficult, indeed, to give an idea of the gigantic propor-
tions now a sumed by the Directory, and, as for the accuracy with
with which it is compiled, all we can say is, that, after testing it, as
already &seri' ed, we have not been able to discover one single mis-
take. Every information possible connected with a work of this
nature, will be found in it. It is accompanied by an admirable map
of London,"
Weekly Dispatch, December 10, 1843.—" The excellent manner
in which, for years past, this Directory has been conducted, has at
length entirely superseded its contemporary, Robson's London Di-
rectory;' but although the managers have no competitor_ to stimu-
late their exertions for superiority, they have not ceased to devote
their best exertions to justify the patronage they have received, and
in the number just published for the forthcoming year, we find that
the Street Directory' is largely increased, and that it has an en.
tirely new feature—viz., tables of the universal rates of postage,
compiled front official sources, comprehending an easy reference of
the postal arrangements contained in the treaties with foreign
Powers. 1 his, and other information which the work contains,
could only be obtained by those who possess the same advantages
as the gentlemen who manage the' Post-office Directory,' and so
long as they continue to devote the same care and attention to the
work that they have hitherto done, their labours will be appreciated
and rewarded by the public."
Globe, December 7,113.—" The present handsome volume, to
which a large Plan of London is prefixed, and which unites the
characters of a City and Court Directory, must be acknowledged
to be worthy, in the comprehensiveness of its contents, of the
greatest centre of wealth and commerce in the world. It is stated
in the preface that 40,000 names appear in this volume, which
either have not been in print at all, or not at the same addresses ;
and that the 'Street Directory,' which in the edition of 1E43 was
comprised in 366, in the present volume extends to 466 pages. The
Postal i directory' furnishes new tables of rates of postage, In con-
formity with the treaties lately concluded with foreign Powers. On
the whole, the volume is the most complete collection of local infor-
mation that ever before was adapted to wants so enormous in local
range."
Biitannia, December 9, 1843.—" This wonderful volume—for truly
wonderful it is in every respect—i. this year augmented to near 2,01`0
pages, and, what we do not always find to he the case, its value is in-
creased in greater proportion than its bulk. The merit and use•
fulness of any work of this kind depend very greatly on the com-
pleteness of its details, and on its comprising all the information
which the merchant, trader, or any other person engaged in business
in London can reasonably expect to find ; and, by extensive addi-
tions, and the most laborious attention to minute details, this Direc-
tory is now made so perfect, accurate, and comprehensive, as to leave,
as we ircagine, no room for the exercise of further ingenuity in the
way of improvement. Every department has keen 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 any single 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 the information required is never given imperfect. 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 also
with the house added with which it has connections in London. So
in every other department; you miss nothing you want, and find
much you could not reasonably expect. Among the judicious im-
provements of this year are the addition of 00,000 new names ; a
valuable enlargement of the Conveyance Directory,' which now
comprehends every kind of transit made up to the latest date, and
the most recent regulations in the Post Office, with tables of the
new rates of foreign postage. In its complete shape, with an excel.
lent map, a dozen directories in one, with every dwelling in the
metropolis and suburbs marked, with the name of every house.
holder recorded, and the occupation of every merchant and trader
defined, it presents an example of what may be effected by the union
of enterprise, capital, skill, and industry when they have the dissec.
tion of a city like London for their object, and the certainty of its
universal patronage for their reward—the certainty, because in truth
the volume is a public boon, and as necessary to all persons engaged
in trade as the commonest implements of the counting-house or the
shop, as a daybook, for instance, or an inkstand."
Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, December 14, 1813.—" This
huge annual has again made its appearance. The volume for 1844
is larger than the last. This is caused in part by the late increase of
buildings in London, but in a greater degree by additions to its use-
fulness. The Commercial, Court, Street, and other Directories are
considerably enlarged, and so classified as to cause no loss of time in
reference. The Parliamentary Directory' embraces the latest
changes in the representation—namely, those of the City and Salis-
bury. The ' Postal Directory' furnishes new tables of rates of post-
age, in conformity with the recent treaties with foreign Powers.
Besides the Banking, Conveyance, and Official Directories, the coun.
try inns throughout the provinces are given ; indeed, every kind of
information that it is possible to expect in such a work is supplied in
the ' Post-office London Directory.' A proof of the importance of
this monster book is that it annihilates all rivalry. Its presence, like
that of Polyphone, is a signal for the disappearance of all who venture
upon the same ground; for we learn from a memorandum attached
to the volume that the Proprietors of Itobson's London Directory'
have declared their inability to compete with the Post-office volume,
and have consequently ceased to publish it. Thus the metropolitan,
like the pastoral monster, has Sung the fatal rock upon its most
formidable rivaL We should not forget to name that tho voluir c
before us is prefaced by a good modern map of London."
Herapath's Journal, December 9, 1843—" Of the extraordinary
productions of the present day, probably this is the one most calcu-
lated to excite astonishment. If these ignorant of the mysteries
of typography are puzzled to think how it has been accomplished,
all accustomed to literary labour, and therefore able to appreciate
the difficulties of the task, must be infinitely more so. The various
classifications have been well considered. Of all the merits of this—
it may be fairly termed—National Directory, not the least is the ex-
treme clearness and simplicity of its arrangement; larger than the
largest ordinary work of the kind, it can throughout be consulted
with the same facility as a dictionary. This has been effected by
judicious sub-division appropriate headings—good indices—and
strict alphabetical arrangement. The book is divided into twelve
subjects, each complete in itself, and yet all more or less connected
with each other. We will take the first:—An arrangement of
all the inhabitants of every street, square, court, and
place within the metropolis, and for some miles round,
from Clapham th Ball's-pond, and from Stratford to Not-
ting-hill. This list is, as, indeed, may be said of very
mat)), others in the volume, unique. It gives the inhabitants of
every place, nobility and gentry, merchants and shopkeepers,
all at one view. This Is a thing that, for obvious reasons, no other
work has attempted A description of the locality is likewise fur-
nished, and as in each street those which intersect it are accurately
described, the entire, as well as being a copious Directory, partakes
of the character of a general map. We have heard before of Mr.
M' Adam, the colossus of roads; but this may be truly called the
colossus of streets. Had such a thing been in existence after the
fire of London, a general and available registry of property would
have been at hand, and, should It happen that a copy survive the
metropolis it so well describes, the future historian or statistician
might from its pages obtain an excellent idea of the wealth, extent,
and magnificence of the greatest commercial city the world has yet
s. en, and of the pursuits of its inhabitants. We observe that in the
Conveyance Directory several thousand new places have been intro-
duced, with all the newest railway information. The cost of the
production of such a book must have been enormous, and to repay
the energetic proprietors the sale must be very great indeed. Of this
there cat), however, be little doubt, as in any place of real business it
cannot I e dispensed with without continued inconvenience."
Mining Journal, December 9, 1843 —" This Diiectory fur the
forthcoming year, evidences the exercise of indefatigable research
in the procuration of an immense mass of valuable information,
and of great talent in its classification and arrangement, so as to be
of the utmost use, and readily available. It presents a complete
Postsoflice vade mecum, and abounds in particulars of such univer-
sal importance as to become an indispensable requisite for the office
of the banker, merchant, or tradesman. The accuracy and perfect
arrangement of this work are deserving of the highsst praise, and
the sale must indeed be considerable to compensate for the expense
and labour entailed on its production."
Spectator, December 9, 184 I.—" This 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 :-.00 pipes more of large and closely-printed
matter being given in the present volume."
John Bull, December 23, Init.—. Nothing less than a Monster
Review' could do complete justice to r his ' Monster Volume,' which
is indeed a remarkable monument of labour, industry, and accuracy.
Among an almost indefinite number of other useful things, it corn-
prises a complete 'Official Directory,' 'Street Directory,' ' Com-
mercial Directory,' Trades Directory,' Law Directory,' Count
Directory,' Postal Directory,' City Directory,' fConveyance
Directory," Banking Directory,'&c. In short there is nothing con-
nected with this huge metropolis in the way of direction 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, while the Street Directory,' which last year was
comprised in 306 pages, now occupies 438 pages. In the Postal
Directory,' the latest regulations have been arranged in the part
headed Universal Rates of Postage,' in a form at once comprehen-
sive and easy of reference."

The advantages of railway communication both to the country
through which it passes and to the projectors, when prudently
undertaken and carried out, are too well known and appreciated
to need any arguments in its favour.
This Railway will be 25 miles in length, and is intended
to connect the important towns of Hastings (including St.
Leonardo), Rye, and Tenterden, with the South-Eastern
Railway at Headcorn, and the forms required by the Standing
Ordei s, preparatory to applying for an Act having been com-
plied with, it is intended to go to Parliament in the ensuing
session for the necessary powers to carry the undertaking into
effect.
A single line of rails will be quite sufficient for the antici-
pated traffic of the proposed railway, and Mr. Errington, on
behalf of Mr. Locke, having examined the piano and sections,
has estimated the expense of constructing a single line, in-
cluding bridges for a double line, and stations and sidings, at
345,000/. The Provisional Committee, from their knowledge
of the district, and from the best information they can obtain,
estimate the cost of land and compensation, Parliamentary ex-
penses, &c., at 55,0001., making a total capital of 400,0001.,
which they feel confident will be amply sufficient for the con-
struction of the line.
The Committee have made careful inquiries front the most
authentic sources, namely, the proprietors of coaches and other
conveyances on the line, the result of which is given in the
traffic table annexed to the prospectus, showing a traffic of 737/.
per week, exclusive of a considerable amount of private traffic,
the returns of which cannot be ascertained.
This traffic, according to the computation allowed by Par-
liamentary Committes as the result of the increased facilities of
railway communication, and which is below the average, as
shown by experience, would make the receipts on the pro-
posed railway amount to 1,474/. per week, making a gross
annual income of

ROYAL HOSPITAL, CHELSEA, JANUARY 24, 1844.
THE RIGHT HONOURABLE the LORDS
and OTHERS, COMMISSIONERS of this HOS-
PITAL do hereby give notice that they are ready to RECEIVE
'TENDERS from, and to treat with, such persons as may be
willing to CONTRACT for VICTUALLING the IN.
PENSIONERS of the said llospital, from the Ist of April,
1844, to the 31st of March, 1845, both days inclusive, for the
following articles of provisions, viz. : —Beef or Mutton,
Bread, Cheese, Butter, Potatoes, Oatmeal, Salt, Cocoa, and
Sugar, at per head per diem, for the whole ration, according to
thelestablished allowances of the house, as specified in a Form
of Tender. Also, for the supply of the undermentioned
articles, viz.:—
For Milk at per quart, in a separate Tender.
Candles at per dozen lbs.
Yellow Soap at
Soft ditto at —} per cwt. In one Tender.
Pearl Ash at
Pot-herbs at per diem -
Onions or Leeks at per lb.

} In one Tender.

For the supply of Oil, Cotton, &c., and for li.;hting a portion
of the Hospital Lamps.
Forms of Tender for the several articles required, and further
particulars may be obtained, upon application at the office of
the Secretary, any day between the hours of Ten and Three
o'clock, which Tenders must be filled up and delivered sealed,
at the Board-room of the said Hospital, by the party or parties
tendering, or by an agent appointed on his or their behalf, on
Tuesday, February 6, at One o'clock, at which time their Lord •
ships will be prepared to take the same into consideration.

Leaving a net income of £45,988
or upwards of 11 per cent. on the estimated outlay.
The Committee have the satisfaction to state that they have
entered into an arrangement with the Directors of the South
Eastern Company, subject to the approbation of their Proprie-
tors, by which that Company will engage at any time within
five years from its opening to take a lease of the Hastings line
for 21 years, at such a rent as shall guarantee to the Proprietors
4 per cent. per annum on the cost of its coastruction to the ex-
tent of the estimate, with a moiety of the net surplus profits
beyond the rental, thus giving to the Proprietors of this under-
taking the opportunity of working 0-e contemplated line them-
selves fur ive years, with the option, should it be deemed more
advantageous at any time within that period, of requiring the
South Eastern Company to take a lease for 21 years, at a rental
securing to the Proprietors a certain fair return for their ca-
pitai with a proportion of the surplus benefits likely to arise
from union management and a consequent reduction of expenses.
The Committee have looked carefully through the last census
and find that the population in the immeoiate neighbourhood
of the proposed line amounts to upwards of 60,000. And upon
examining the returns made at the respective Custom Houses
of 11astings, Rye, and Shoreham, the Committee find that the
present exports from Hastings and Rye, exceed those of
Shoreham, without allowing for any increase, which will un-
questionably be caused by the intended railway.
Four months' notice will be given of all Calls, and not more
than 21. 10s. per share will be called for at one time.
Power will be applied for in the Act, to allow interest on
the Deposits and paid up Calls, at the rate of 41. per cent. per
annum.
Applications for Shares, to be made to Messrs. Amory
Sewell, and Moores, Throgmorton-street, London; Mr.
Fowlr', Mint-street, Rye; Mr. Shewell, 25, Tokenhouse-vard,

Duncuft, Manchester.

It is further to be observed that the Contractors will be re-
quired to find security fur the due performance of their several
Contracts, and that no tender will be received after the hour
above-mentioned.

pleasing action, which are highly recommended, and allowed to
be a decided improvement. Clothes Brushes, for their flexibi-
lity and conformity to the shape in their use, as well as preserv-
ing the nap of the finest cloth. Horse Brushes (truly the
groom's friend) ; this brush stands unrivalled ; it is difficult
adequately to describe the advantages obtained by its flexibility
when in use. The Flesh, Shoe, Stove, and other Brushes,
possess great advantages over the ordinary stiff backs, for it
will be found that all brushes hitherto made wear out at the
extremities, leaving little of the middle worn, whereas the
Patent Flexible-back Brushes wear alike throughout.

FOR STOPPING DECAYED TEETH.
MR. THOMAS'S SUCCEDANEUM,
Price 4s. 6d.
Patronised by her Majesty, his Royal Highness Prince Albert,
and her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent.
This valuable SUCCEDANEUM for STOPPING DE-
CAYED TEETH, however large the cavity is far superior to
anything ever before used, as it is placed in the tooth in a soft
state, without any pressure or pain, and in a short time becomes
as hard as the enamel, and will remain firm in the tooth for
many years, rendering extraction unnecessary. It arrests all
further progress of decay, and renders them again useful is'
mastication. _ .

Prepared only by Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Ber-
ners-street, Oxford-street. Price 4s. 6d., and will be sent
free by post to any part of the kingdom.
Mr. Thomas continues to supply the loss of teeth without
springs or wires, and has introduced an entirely NEW DE-
SCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, which will be
found very superior to all ethers, as they will never decay, nor
become discoloured, and their perfect resemblance to nature
defies detection even by the closest observer. This method
does not require the extraction of any teeth or roots, or any
painful operation whatever. The charges will be found much
less than most Dentists.
Mr. Thomas, Surgeon-Dentist, 68, Berners-street, Oxford-
street. At home from eleven till four.

THE OPENING OF PARLIAMENT.
( HER MAJESTY'S SPEECH ANTICIPATED.)
My Lords and Gentlemen,—l'm much delighted
To meet you here, and find you so united.
I still receive, assurances of peace,
Nor are our tranquil prospects like to cease;
Some parts of Britain lately were in riot,
But these are now beginning to be quiet.
And then, again, on looking on our trade,
I'm sure we have no cause to be dismay'd.
A inark'd improvement we may dai'y view
In every branch of trade and commerce, too.
This, it aprears, from those who ought to know,
Is °wine to the MOSES' famed Depot.
I've watched these met. 'aid am of the opinion,
That they're unrivall'di n my wide dominion.
MOSES and SON deserve your thanks I'm sure,
For what they've done to benefit the poor.
If ev'ry tradesman mask the same endeavour,
My people would be better clad than ever.
And now 1 end my speech—yet ere it closes,
I'd add a hint with reerenee to the MOSES',
For favours which those gentlemen bestow,
I trust that you your gratitude will show,
By purchasing your clothes at Their Depot.

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 examination of the Post.office
Directory for 1844, we should be equally astonished if any book of
the same class could be found successfully to compete with it, there
being upwards of 1,900 pages of imperial octavo, closely ',fluted,
containing more than 100,000 names. Not only does its bulk give an
idea of the enormous increase of the metropolitan population, but the
many improvements in its arrangements are such as to impart the
most important facilities in the expeditious dispatch of business.
The discontinuance of the practice of making class distinctions in the
Street Lists' will be found a great convenience. The information
given 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 for it, extends to a radius in-
cluding the immense suburbs of the metropolis, with its most recent
improvements."

CAUTION.—E. Moses and Son regret being obliged to guard

manlike falsehood of being connected with them, or it's the
same concern, has been resorted to in many instances, and for
obvious reasons. They have no connexion whatever with any
other establishment, and those who desire genuine Cheap
Clothing should call or send to 154, Minories, to guard against
disappointment, &c.

TIALSE'S SCORBUTIC DROPS.
DECLARATION OF THE GUARDIANS OF BRENL
DEVON.
We the undersigned, solemnly declare that before Thomas Ito.
bins, one of our parishioners, commenced taking " Halse's Scor-
butic Drops," he was literally covered with large running wounds
,some of them so large that a.person might have laid his fist in
them), that before lie had finished the first bottle he noticed an
improvement, and that by continuing them for some time, he got
completely restored to health, after everything else had failed. He
had tried various sorts of medicines before taking " Halse's Scor-
butic Drops," and had prescriptions from the most celebrated phy.
sitian sin this country, without deriving the least benefit. " Halse's
Scorbutic Drops" have completely cured him, and he is now ena-
bled to attend to his labour as well as any man in our parish. From
other cures also made in this part, we strongly recommend " Halse's
Scorbutic Drops" to the notice of the public.
Signed by John Elliott, sen., Lord of the Manor, John Manning,
