" The plaintiff's publication was one of considerable bulk,
arid most probably of great utility and so the Vice-Chan-
cellor of England must have thought by granting the injunc-
tion ex parte, and continuing that proceeding upon motion made
to dissolve it."
Vide " Times" of 20th December, 1841.—Judgment of his
Honour Vice Chaticetlor Knight Bruce, confirming the Injunc-
tion obtained against the " Post-Office Almanac," for pirating
Pete-Otliee Directory.” - -
Thefollowing Reviews of the Complete Directory have al-
, ready appeared
Times, December 3, 1841.
This useful matter-of-fact volume has just been published by
Messrs. Kelly and Co., of Old Beswell-court, Temple-bar,
and will no doubt be, as it ought to be, in the hawk 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 matter, with
which the preceding. volumes were not furnished—it has an im-
portant addition, " The official Directory," an alphabetical
list of all persons holding situations under the Crown, of all
iaersons holding situations in the East India House, in the
• Bank of England, and in the various law, city offices, and all
'ther, public offices. This addition is of itself enough to show
the great pains talren'-by• the -Proprietors to render the book
perfect.. nitre is aloe some useful information given relative
to the " Money 'Order-officet which, if the public would
pay more attention 'than they have hitherto done, less would.
be heard of the loss of-money by the transmissioloaf remittances
by post. in the manner usually adopted. The number of stamps
issued to the various newspapers:published throughout England
and Wales is given, together with the amount of stamp ditties
en 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 antopinion, and it is next to impossible to pay to
such a work as this the ininute attention it deserves, it appears
to be compiled with indefatigable industry, extreme vigilance,
and an excellent judgment for trraegement. ' " •
- I.llorrinr,: Chronicle, Diecember 21, 1841.
We have had occasiori.to commend the extraordinary diligence
and accuracy shown in getting up the " Post-offic;t Directory"
for former years, and no less praise is due to the publication of
the present valuate. - It contains the same immense mass of
sinformation ielafive to the metropolis, which renders the work
one of the,most astonishing monuments of the greatness of
London that can well be conceived. This inforniation appears
classified, 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'earefully made,
and it would be difficult to over-estimate the labour involved
in such corrections. We recommend it to the favourable cansi-
derat ion of the public ; and, infect, it must be regarded as indis-
pensable in • every house or -office where- business is trans-
acted. To those, if there-be any,.wbo hive not seen it, it will
convey the best notion of the, variety of its Contents to say, that
the single volume of 1,500 page's contains a Streets' Directory
—Trades' Directory—Law Directory—CV—Parliamentary—
Courts—Postage—Banking—and Official and Conveyance
Oirectories—e.tch 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 extremely useful work. It em-
braces every point of intereit in'and near the metropolis that
can. affeot the wants of the community at large, and is se,.vice-
able to all clones of sociqy.. Under one general head, it con-
tains a series of Directories, in which are enumerated all the
trades, streets, names, official designations, Parliamentary,
1441, banking, and Pok-oftlee references, that are in daily re-
quisition ; and, while it is of the most ample dimensions (ex-
tending over 1,500 pages) is accurate in the minutest partico•
lars. No public office or mercantile house should, in fact, be
without it.

The' charge, whether true or false, brought against the
" Annuals," that, however pretty they may be, they are of
little or nu use, cannot in any degree apply to this singular
publicalioz. Within the single volume, neatly brought out
"by Messrs Kelly awl Co.. of Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar,
is comprised all the information that can be useful t.) the
fashionable,
.legal, or commercial communities. "It in-
cludes 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 " Gerieral List of Stamps ;" an
" OfEcial Directory," with an index of six thousand persons
balding situations under the Crown, in the Bank, the East
India House, and other public departments ; the " Commer-
cial Directory," perhaps the fullest and most complete that
has ever yet appeare I, and "a variety of miscellaneous matter
which it is impossible to particularise here. In short, from
our own observation, wo can safely pronounce this work a sine
qua non to everybody who desires to become acquainted kith
the great metropolitan world of London.

Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, Dec. 22, 1841.
On our reference from time to time to the Post-office Direc-
tory of 1141, we felt convinced that nothing could have been
produced more perfect fot the purposes for which the huge
compilation was designed ; it appears, however, we were mis-
taken. The thick volume before us is vastly superior to the
last, and is unquestionably 't the most complete work of the
kind ever published ;" the information is so judiciously classi-
fied,. that although it eitends over some fifteen hundred large
closely printetLptges, every departMent of the compilation
might be consulted in a few seconds. It is surprising hew
such a 'mass of intelligence .can have heed collected and ar-
rati;;;ed so accurately, expeditiously, and cheaply, neither of
which could of course be accomplished without the extensive
and peculiar resources of the General Pont-ollice. No count-
ing,house,.coffec-room, or public office, should be without this
excellent record.

This work is in 1,527 imperial octavo pages and the otudy of
the compilers appears to have been to render each page a speci-
men of systematic arrangement, and of how much information
it is possible to convey in a given space. We do not believe that
any work of the kind exists SO nearly approaching perfection.
fhe resources of-the Post-office, and mighty they are proved to
be, are here wrought out into every useful variety of combina-
tion, and to each division of the book has been imparted a labo-
riousfinisb, that only those accustomed to literary labour can
entirely appreciate. We never before ssw a Directory which
