POST-OFFICE LONDON DIRECTORY
For 1842.

" The plaintiff's publication was one of considerable bulk,
and most probably of great utility : and so the Vice Chan-
cellor of England mast 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 Chanceilor Knight Bruce, confirming the Injunc..
tion obtained against the " Post-Office Almanac,' Lir pirating
Post-Office Directory."

The following Revijws 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 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 presnit
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
persons holding situations in the East India House, in the
'dank 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. (here is also some useful information given relative
to the " Money Order-office," to which, if the publio 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
is ued to the various newspapers published throughout England
and Wales 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 dessrves, it appears
to be compiled with indefatigable industry. extreme vigilance,
and an excellent judgment fur art angement.
Morning Chronicle, December 21, 1841.
We have had occasion to commend the extraordinary diligence
and accuracy shown in getting up the " Post office Directory"-
for former years, and no less praise is due to !he 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 app ars
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 carefully made,
and it would be difficult to over-estimate the labour involved
in such corrections. We recommend it to the favourable, cansi.
derationof the public ; and, in fact, it must be regarded as indis-
pensable in every house or office where business is trans-
acted. To those, if there he any, who have not seen it, it isi:l
convey the best notion of the variety of its contents to say, that
the single volume of 1,500 pages contains a Streets' Directory
—Trades' Directory—Law Directory—Cdy—Parliamentary—
Court.—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 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, names, official designations, Parliamentary,
legal, banking, and Post-office references, that are in daily re-
quisition ; and, while it is of the most ample rlimens'ons (ex-
tending over 1,500 pages) is accurate in the minutest particu•
lays. No public office or mercantile house should, in fact, be
without it.
