52, Fleet-street.
A NEW DISCOVERY in TEETH—Mr
HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet. street, has in-
introduced AN ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIPTION of
A RFIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wir,•s, or li-
gatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth, as not
to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer;
they will NEVER CHANGE COLOUR OR DECAY, and
will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does net require the extraction of roots, or any
painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that
are loose, and are guaranteed to restore articulation and
mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may b•
within reach of the most economical, he has fixed his charges
at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound
and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street. At home from
Ten till Five.

Times, December 3, 1841.

This useful matter-of-fact volume has just been published by
Messrs. Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar,
and will no doubt be, as it ought to be, in the hands of
every merchant, banker, and tradesman in the country. It
is, independently of its utility, by which it is rendered indis-
pensable to every counting-house and shop, a curious sta •
tistical monument of the extent, importance, trade, and
wealth of the metropolis, and as such a document deserving
the attention even of persons who are not immediately in-
terested in commercial and business pursuits. The present
volume for 1842 contains some important new akatier, with
which the preceding volumes were not furnished— as an im-
portant addition, " The offibial Directory," an tlaphabetical
list of all persons holding situations under the Crown, of all
persona holding situations in the East India House, in the
Bank of England, and in the various law, city offices, and all
other public offices. This addition is of itself enough to show
the great pains taken by the Proprietors to render the book
perfect. 'I here is also some useful information given relative
to the " Money Order-office," to which, if the public would
pay more attention than they have hitherto done, less would
be heard of the loss of money by the transmission of remittances
by post in the manner usually adopted. The number of stamps
issued to the various newspapers published throughout England
and Vales is given, together with the amount of stamp duties
on advertisements paid by each paper respectively, and, Indeed,
a mass of information is brought together from which the best
informed may derive some increase of knowledge, and to
which the attention of the most ignorant and careless can
hardly be called in vain. As far as the cursory examination
can justify an opinion, and it is next to impossible to pay to
such a work as this the minute attention it deserves, it appears
to be compiled with indefatigable industry, extreme vigilance,
and an excellent judgment for arrangement.
Morning Post, December 29, 1841.
The charge, whether tine or false, brought against the " An-
nuals," that, however pretty they may be, they are of little or
pa use, cannot in any degree apply to this singular publication.
Within the single volume, neatly brought out by Messrs. Kelly
and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar, is comprised all
the information that can be nseful to the fashionable, legal, or
commercial communities. "It includes a " Court Directory,"
which alone contains about five-and-twenty thousand names ;
a" Law Directory" of the most ample description, giving,
among other details, no fewer than sixteen large pages of a
" General List of Stamps ;" an " Official Directory," with an
index of six thousand persons holding situations under the
Crown, in the Bank, the East India House, and other public
departments; the " Commercial Directory," perhaps the ful-
lest and most complete that has ever yet appeared, and a variety
of miscellaneous matter -which it is impossible to particularise
here. In short, from our own observation, we can safely pro-
nounce this work a " sine qua non" to everybody who desires to
become acquainted with the great metropolitan world of London.

Morning Chronicle, Dec. 21, 1841.
We have had occasion to commend the extraordinary diligence
and accuracy shown in getting up the " Post-office Oirectory"
for former years, and no less praise is due to the publication of
the present volume. It contains the same immense mass of
information relative to the metropolis, 'which renders the work
one of the most astonishing monuments of the greatness of
London that can well be conceived. This information appears
clasaified, distributed, and arranged in a variety of ways so as
to make the facility of reference nearly perfect. The
corrections necessary from the changes of a year appear,
as far as it is possible to judge, to have been carefully made,
and it would be difficult to over-estimate the labour involved
in such corrections. We recommend it to the favourable con-
sideration of the public ; and, in fact, it must be regarded as
disvcnsable in every house, or office, where business is trans-
acted. To those, if there be any, whe have not seen it, it will
convey the best notion of the variety of its contents to ray, that
the single volume of 1,500 pages contains a Streets' Directory
_Trades' Directory—Law Directory—City—Parliamentary—
Courts—Postage—Banking—and Official and Conveyance
Directories—each a large work, and complete in itself, though
the whole are requisite to a publication which professes to be a
Directory for London.
Morning Herald. Nov, 30, 1841.
This is a most complete and extreme 4 useful work. It em-
braces every point of interest in and near the metropolis that
can affect the wants of the community at large, and is service-
able to all classes of society. Under one general head it con-
tains a series of Directories, in which are enumerated all the
Trades, Streets, Nunes, Official Designations, Parliamentary,

Legal, Banking, and Post-office referees's, that are in daily re-
quisition ; and while it is of the most ample dimensions (es-
tending over 1,500 pages) is accurate in the minutest particu-
lars. No public office or mercantile house should, in fact be
without it.

Sun, November 25, 1841.
We have great pleasure in noticing this useful work, of which
we have received an early copy. It exceeds the size of the
Directory of last year, and probably is the most complete and
correct town-guide yet published. The following outline of
the contents will enable the reader to form some idea of the
vast undertaking. It contains an Official Directory, with the
names alphabetically arranged, of all civil officers under Go-
vernment, in the Bank of England, East India House, and all
other public establishments. A Street Directory, which in-
cludes gentry as well as traders ' • and subjoined to this, are two
others, giving the names at full length, of sixty thousand per.
sons engaged in commerce, and lists of two thousand trades
established in the metropolis, with the tradesmen attached to
each, and the subdivisions of every trade accurately defined.
There are separate Directories also for the Court ; the Par-
liament, with the most recent addresses of the Members of
both Houses; the Law, with a list of all officers from the
Lord Chancellor down to the usher of the most inferior Court :
and the City of London, with the names and addresses of all
City Officers, Companies, &c. The Court Directory includes
the names of twenty-five thousand persons not engaged in
trade, and takes a wider range than any other work of the
kind. The information respecting the Post-office will be
found eminently useful to persons of every description ; and
among ether additions made to it for this year is one of great
importance, showing the time at Which a 1 tter from London
should be delivered at any place in England or Wales, and
the time at which the letter-box for London closes in each
place. The facilities afforded by the Postmaster-General give
the compilers advantages which could not otherwise be obtained
The information is furnished from the Post-office gratuitously,
it is of the latest possible date, and has been all collected or
confirmed within the last two months. We have had little
time yet to test its accuracy, but have no doubt that it fully
maintains, in that respect, the high character of that published
for the year 1841. The work is beautitully printed, sold at a
moderate price, and will be sound of greet service to persons in
every rank of e.
