Times, December 3, 1841.
This useful matter-of-fact volume has just been published by
Mcssrs. 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 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
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. There 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 %rates 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 he 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
extreme Vigilance,

Miming Post, December 29, 1841.
The charge, whether hue or fa se, brought against the " An-
nuals," that, however pretty they may he, they are of little or
no use, cannot in any degree apply to this singular publication.
Within the single volume, neatly brought out by Alessrs. Kelly,
an " Official Directory," with an
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,"
persons holding situations under the

Morning .
We have had occasion to commend the extraordinary diligence
and accuracy shown in getting up the " Post-office i tirectory"
for former years, and no less praise is due to the publication of
the present volume. It contains the same immense miss 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 ; arid, in fact, it must be regarded as
dispensable in every house, or office, where business is trans-
acted. To those, if there be any, who have not seen it, it will
convey the best notion of the variety of its contents to say, that
the single volume of L5OO 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 extremely useful work. It mi.
br ices every point of interest in and near the metropolis that
cat 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 enumeratod all the
Trades, Streets, Names, Official Designations, Parliamentary,
