We have received the issue for the present year of

Thacker's Indian Directory (Thacker and Spink, Calcutta ; Thacker and Co., London), an enlarged form, as we understand, of what was known as "The Bengal Directory." It is described as "embracing the Pro- vinces of Bengal, Madras, Bombay, North-West Provinces, Punjab, Central Provinces, Burma, Assam, and the Native States of India, with complete and detailed information of the cities of Calcutta, Bombay, and Madras, with almanac, Army List, and general information."
