For notices of this startling work see the " Saturday Re view" of April 1, entitled "Quacks and Quackery ;' the " Weekly , Dispatch" of April e, " The Quacks and their Crimes ;' "The Sun" of April 12, " 'Detector's' Broadside on Quacks and Quackery." GUIDE TO THE QUACKS OF LONDON. A Series of Papers relative to Quacks, which appeared in the " Medical Circular," with the signature of "Detector," has been republished in the form of a short pamphlet. The reader of " Punch" should read this pamphlet also. lie has often read, in the pages of "Punch," of cc rtain Quacks, frau dulent an] noisome, who obtain money by false pretences, and more money by menaces and extortion, from green young =tn._ .1;7 or their names. which ±1.121w.e11!',....wP ir t advertise, he has refert ed his readers to the lower corner of the advertisimr columns of low newspapers, amongst which too mauy of Mr." Punch's' contemporat ies, especially in the country, may still be enumerated. But now he begs to pub lish the information that a nominal list of these mitcreante, with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning them, ntcdfut to be known, will be found in the pamphl.t above referred to, which is entitled "Revelations of Quacks an i Quackery." and is to be had at the " Medictl Circular " Office, 20, Bing William-street, Strand, W.O. The vile practices, the monstrous impudence, the cruel rapacity, and the enormous pins of the obscene tribe of Quacks, the mischief they do, the ruin they work, even to the causation of suicide, are fully set forth in "Revelations of Quacks and Qackery." And mark especially that, as aforesaid, the names of the Quacks are published. The pamphlet in question thus constitutes a regular Quack Di rectory, by consulting which every young man may know where he may go if he wishes to get plundered and destroyed. Buy, therefore, reader, by all means buy " Revelations of Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse you, while they invoke you* indignation and disgust. Of course you do not want it on account of its warnings for your own sake, but you doubtless do for that of the many simple tons with whom you must be acquainted, if your acquaint ance is large. " Who are toe Quacks that 'Punch' means ?" Consider what it is to be able to answer this question of the young and inexperienced, and, for charity's sake, if for no other Quackery," provide yourself with "Revelations of Quacks and by Detector.—Punch, April 12.

He trusted if the magistrate remained of the same opinion as he was when he gave his previous decision, that his friend Mr. Poland will do what he did not do before — seek such an opinion as would give satisfaction to all parties, and by which all parties would be bound. Mr. Tyrwhitt—That was the proper course. It was im possible to shut our eyes to the fact that this was a com plicated matter, and that if ever there was a subject which required the attention of the superior courts this was one. Mr. Roberts—The Acts 10th Geo. 11. and 25th Geo. 11. were passed under circumstances which had long ceased to exist. He would call witnesses, and then he hoped the sensvi of his own dignity would induce the magistrate, from the indignity he had sustained in having the conviction quashed after the able judgment he bad given, would induce him to uphold his previous judgment. Mr. Horace Wigan, lessee of the Olympic Theatre, said— I went to the Royal Alhambra on the 20th May. I gained admission by paying at the door. There were two places for taking money. I found the place fitted up like a theatre, with pit, stalls, and tables for refreshments, galleries, and balconies with chairs. There were also places resembling private boxes. I believe there were tiersof boxes —certainly two tiers. There is a difference in charge between the re served stalls and the seats. There is an orchestra and a stage. The orchestra has musicians, and there is a pro scenium and lights in the usual way. There is a full band, and what I should call a curtain. When the curtain was withdrawn I saw an Oriental scene. There is, as far as I can recollect, every appliance of a theatre. There is a pro scenium and the plan of a stage. There was a scene painted to represen an Oriental landscape, and pieces of scenes painted toi,svp!.esent rocks. I saw a ballot divertissement. Mr. PoTalid—!rajecrto that d.cignntinn of it. Mr. Tyrwhitt—l shall allow it. Mr. Wigan-4 saw a number of ladies dressed in the Ordi nary costume of ballet dancers—from 60 to 70. They came in from a large aperture in the costume that I have described, and then danced down; and those that first descended on the stage performed a serpentine figure, so as to occupy the whole stage. Mr. Wigan described the dancing, as it has already been fully described, to the effect that some ladies came forward, and that an avenue was formed for the pre miere danseuse to pass through. The principal danseuse danced three solo dances. The dance finished by the prin cipal danseuses forming themselves into a sort of bouquet or basket of flowers. It could not have been performed without stage accessories. By Mr. Poland—l only saw women on the stage. The daggers were all one shape. They held out mimic poniards and danced, holding out poniards. Believed they were dressed alike. The audience were charged for admission. People sat round the tables on chairs and benches. I did not go with Mr. Donne. The Hon. Mr. Ponsonby is not connected with the theatre. I do not know whether the Hon. Mr. Bentinck is. I throw myself on the protection' of the magistrate, and I do not feel bound to answer these questions. No traps were used in the entertainment. By Mr. Tyrwhitt—There was a great difference in the performance. A ballet had a story, but a ballet divertisse ment had no story. John M'Lean, a comedian, said—l got in by paying, and I saw exactly what Mr. Wigan swears to. The ballet could not be performed without stage accessories. Mr. Milano, ballet-master—l saw the dagger dance per formed. It was originally produced at Drury-lane. By Mr. Poland—lt was the same dance as in Azael per formed at Drury-lane. A ballet divertissement was danc ing with gesture. Should not call the movements in the " Lancers" a gesture ; merely a polite movement. Mr. W. Bonham Donne, in the Lord Chamberlain's Office —I call it a ballet, and an entertainment of the stage. By Mr. Roberts—The Lord Chamberlain has not been in the habit of urging copies of directions for the ballet to be sent to him. The ballet divertissement could be described and examined. In future all ballets were to be sent in like all other pieces. The Lord Chamberlain had interfered in cases of the Italian Opera where the attire of the ladies was objected to. Mr. Poland said ho appeared at that court for the second time for the purpose of discussing whether or not Mr. Strange had violated the act of Parliament. Ho would at the outset say that Mr. Strange having embarked a large capital in the building was desirous of giving to the public the best entertainment the law allowed, without interfering with the rights of the theatres or violating the law. What Mr. Strange contended for, now as before, was this, that as he held a licence from the Middlesex magistrates for music and dancing, the music and dancing which ho gave to the public under the name of a ballet divertissement was war ranted under that license. The question whether this kind of music and dancing was permitted by the Act of 25th Geo. 11. had already been fully discussed at the sessions. Mr. Roberts-1 deny that it was fully discussed. Mr. Poland—The ballet had just been called an interlude, itt it was certainly not an interlude in the legal sense. He came back to the old question, what was the meaningof the 25th Geo. 11. This act licensed another class, and he had admitted that Mr. Strange had no right to present one class of entertainment because he had licence under a different act of Parliament. It had been asserted that music and dancing meant that the public were to dance only. But were the public also to take their flutes and pianos and play to their own dancing ? It was manifest that the meaning of the act was that the public should go to these places, not to perform, but to be amused. If a house was open to the public under licence it was immaterial whether people paid money to dance themselves, or to see others dance who were paid to amuse them. The case of " Clark v. Serle" had been cited, but that would be found to go against the argument of Mr. Roberts.. The present was the first time any distinction had been made between public dancing by the public or by paid performers. Mr. Tyrwhitt—When the act was passed there were no places like the Alhambra. Mr. Poland—The next question was, were the entertain ments at the Alhambra contrary to the Theatrical Act. In the 10th Geo. 11., the word pantomime was omitted, and not noticed until the 6th and 7th Viet., showing thereby that the omission was noticed and supplied. Pantomime meant an entertainment where there was action and plot combined. But it was not possible to call pantomimo ac tion only a pantomime. Suppose the Lancers was danced in plain clothes, would that would be pantomime ? Cer tainly not. Nor could it be made pantomime by dancing the Lancers in fancy costumes. He thought it rather hard that Mr. Strange should be dragged to that court to hear a question discussed and decided over again because the plaintiffs were dissatisfied with the decision of a superior Court, which the Quarter Sessions was. It had been said that the ballet must be a stage entertainment because thero were stage accessories—that there were stage lights and real water. But could any of these things affect the cha racter of the performance ? Attempts had been made by witnesses to prove what were stage accessories but the attempts reminded him of the old story of the author who wrote an article about Chinese metaphysics. When asked how he managed the matter, as he knew nothing about the subject, he said, "I read in the Encyclopedia' the article ' China,' and afterwards the article Metaphysics,' and then I compared the two, and wrote about Chinese metaphysics." It was equally nonsensical to call dancing exhibitions an entertainment of the stage by combining things that could or did in any way affect the character of the performance. What was an entertainment of the stage ? Would it be a stage- entertainment if the part of "Hamlet " was read, or a song out of an opera sung? Then, with respect to sending a copy of the performance to the Lord Chamber lain, the Legislature never intended that a mere display of pantomimic action should be described and sent. How could a ballet divertissement be described so as to be un derstood by the Lord Chamberlain ? It must be stated thus :—" Young ladies trip to footlights ; young ladies trip back again from a line, and flourish daggers. Chief dancer advances and flourishes one leg about. Chief dancer puts leg to ground." This was all that could be sent, and cer tainly it was not what the Legislature intended the Lord Chamberlain to receive. It was stated that why a copy ought to be sent to the Lord Chamberlain, because if anything improper were in the entertainment it could be stopped, but if any breach of decorum occurred the magistrates could act and put an end to it. The case cited did not show that any- I thing of the kind performed at the Alhambra was a stage play or entertainment. (Mr. Poland here went over the cases cited by Mr. Roberts, and pointed out in detail that they were not applicable to the question now before the Court). Before he concluded, he would call attention to another matter. Mr. Roberts had stated that the magi strate (Mr. Tyrwhitt) had allowed an indignity to be put upon him. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Do not trouble yourself about that. I have a perfect disregard for the whole thing. Mr. Poland—From the statement which has appeared, you were under an entire misunderstanding when you granted the new summons. You stated that the quarter sessions came to the determination of not granting a case previous to giving their decision on the appeal. Mr. Roberts—What was stated was, that the Middlesex magistrates anticipated that an application would be made for'a case, and refused to grant ono. Mr. Poland—lt is not likely the magistrates would have come to any such determination. What really took place was this Mr. Tyrwhitt—l must say I read the statement in one o the papers. Mr. Roberts—lt appeared in The Times. Mr. Tyrwhitt—The application foranother summons was founded on a fresh offence. I could not refuse it ; and the plaintiff, if he is disatisfied, has a right to have the matter heard over and over again. Mr. Poland—l will set the Court right with respect to what occurred at the sessions. After the case was discussed tho magistrates retired to consider their decision. They did come to a decision, and then they took the question of PRICE 4d. STAMPED sd. granting a case, should it be applied for, into consideration. When the magistrates entered the court and declared their decision, in reply to an application for a case, they said " We discussed the matter after we had arrived at our de cision whether we should quash the judgment subject to a case or without a case. We decided to quash the judgment 'without giving a case." I make this explanation to show that the law was in no way ignored—that the matter was fully discussed. Mr. Tyrwhitt—Mr. Wigan was not satisfied with that decision. Mr. Poland—How many decisions will satisfy Mr. Wigan ? He has brought us here three times. I may say— " Thrice the brindled cat hath mew'd," but, perhaps, if I accompany this quotatian from Shak spero with gesture it may be deemed a stage play. It is a great hardship on Mr. Strange, when he had gone to a great expense to take the case to the quarter sessions, that he should be dragged here again and again. Mr. Roberts had stated that the majority of the legal profession dis approved of the decision at quarter sessions. He believed the reverse was the fact. He trusted that this decision would be such as to be final, especially after the expendi ture of between £2OO and £3OO by Mr. Strange. Mr. Tyrwhitt--All I can say is, that Mr. Wigan has a right to come here and get another summons if not satisfied with the decision of the magistrates, by which he need not be bound. The public at large cannot enter into the sub ject. They go to the Alhambra where no doubt they find plenty to eat and drink, and they are satisfied. But this is a dry question of law, and must be decided as such. I adhere to my former opinion, which however may be again upset. I practised for some years at the bar ; my experi ence has been mainly confined to Westminster Hall, and country sessions, but I have not had much to do with the iiiiddlesez. Sessions. What I shall now do will be to dis miss the summons„-&-eOll-1150-of which no - one kaa 4-t4kt to complain, as I shall be ready to grant a case for any court that may be decided upon. I trust that now these ques tions will be removed for ever from courts like this. Tho summons was then dismissed. Unlicensed Theatres—The Alhambra.

Mr. Frederick Strange, proprietor of the Royal Alham bra, Leicester-square, was summoned before Mr. Tyrwhitt for that his house, being a place of public resort, was kept for the performance of stage plays without having a licence from the Lord Chamberlain. Mr. Roberts appeared in support of the summons Land . f. 'Poland attencted For the Venal - it Mr. Roberts said, in this case Mr. Horace Wigan, of the Olympic Theatre, both for himself and other theatrical managers, summoned Mr. Frederick Strange for a violation of the 26th Vic. cap. 28, sect. 2, in keeping open a place of public resort for the performance of stage plays without a licence. The 23d sect, defined stage plays. The entertain ment complained of was called a "ballet divertissement," and this, he was prepared to contend, was a performance of the stage. It had been argued, and would no doubt be again argued, that if ballets had not been excepted, that would have been named in the act. But at the time the Acts 10th and 25th Geo. 11. were passed, the ballet was then part of the opera, and never performed by itself. Even if a ballet was performed by itself, it did not cease to be a stage en tertainment. " Webster's Dictionary," a good authority, defined a ballet to be a kind of dance, accompanied by music, in which various passions and emotions were repre sented by the movements of the dancers. A divertisse ment, which was a word of French derivation, was also an interlude, and described in " Webster" as an enter tainment exhibited on the stage, between the acts or plays, to amuse the spectators while the actors were chang ing their dresses, or taking breath, or while the scenes were being shifted. In " Beeton's Dictionary of Universal information" an interlude was stated to be a show, play, or dance, accompanied by music, and introduced between the acts of a piece, or a play and afterpiece. A pantomime was no doubt a performance where actions or the passions of the human mind were conveyed by gesture. If love, hatred, grief, or joy were conveyed to the spectators by gesture, that Would be pantomim& The derivation of interlude was from the French, and the French explanation coincided with our explanation. Therefore he contended that the ballet diver tissement partook of all the characteristics of the theatrical definition that had been given. He would not describe the place nor the performances. He would leave that part of his case to the witnesses. He would proceed to read and refer to the different cases in point. The cases of Gallieni and Hardy had been referred to in previous pro ceedings, and at the sessions it was argued that it was nonsense to say that ballets were to be prohibited, for how could a copy of the performance be sent to the Lord Cham berlain ? But he would refer to what Lord Kenyon said in the case of Gallieni. The object of the law was to put all places of diversion under supervision in .order to protect public morals. It was well known that indecent perform ances could be presented by the aid of dancing, and the Lord Chamberlin had lately issued a notice to theatrical managers for them to send, as far as they could, a copy of ballets, divertissements, and every stage dance. Mr. Poland—Was this since these proceedings against managers were commenced ? Mr. Roberts—The notice was sent since these proceed ings had occurred. He would read the notice. Mr. Poland—l object to the notice being road. Mr. Tyrwhitt—lt is not necessary. The only question is this—is a copy necessary to be sent to the Lord Cham berlain? Mr. Roberts—With reference to the case of Gallieni v. Labori, it was thought that Lord Kenyon overruled his judgment in that case when deciding the case of the King v. Hardy, but it was not so, for Lord Kenyon expressly re ferred to his judgment in the case of Gallieni, and stated that it was right, and gave his reasons at length, showing the dif ferent ground on which the two cases stood. In the case of Hardy, Lord Kenyon held that under the 25th George 11., the word dancing meant public dancing. But the point for which he contended, and against which Mr. Strange con tended, was that the 25th George 11. did not give magis trates the power to allow stage-dancing. The magistrates held the contrary opinion ; but he maintained it was not the intention of the Legislature to give magistrates that power. The recital itself of the act ought to convince every one that no such intention existed in the Legislature when they passed the act. He contended that the words public danc ing in the act meant dancing by the frequenters of the place, not dancing by stage performers. He might be wrong, but the real question was whether the 25th Geo. 11. meant to apply to any other kind of dancing than that to which he had referred. The act certainly applied to places taken for dancing purposes. The case of Clarke v. Serle showed that the opinion of Lord Kenyon was that the act applied to all places where persons could gain admission by payment. If stage dancing was not an entertainment of the stage, how could the singing of the song of " The Ship on Fire" be held to be a dramatic entertainment, as was ruled in the case of Russell v. Smith ? The judgment of Lord Denman would be found in 17 Law Journal, 225. At the quarter sessions t!, i e plaintiffs were not allowed to give evidence of ex rom marts. It was stated by the magistrates question for the Court, but Lord Denman's judgmer 4u in the case he had quoted went to favour the that the plaintiffs had a right to the evidence of ex parts.

The Court proceeded to take into consideration a report of the Guildhall Improvement Committee, having reference to the works that have been for a long time going on in the interior of the Guildhall with a view to its restoration to its original condition, as nearly as maybe. This report has been printed, and it recommended certain additional works to be performed in connexion with the proposed alterations at an expense not exceeding £9,330, and also that it should be referred to the Coal, Corn, and Finance Committee to provide this sum, and an additional amount of £5,900 that had already been incurred for works agreed to be executed, and which were not included in the original estimate of the cost of renovating the hall. Mr. J. KELDAY, the Chairman of the Guildhall Improve ment Committee, in moving that the report be agreed to, adverted at some length to the matters in connexion with the subject, and said that although only a portion of the works had yet been completed, he believed that the im provements that had been effected had given complete satisfaction. At 'first there appeared to have been some doubts as to the propriety of the design for the new roof ; but all these doubts were removed upon its completion, and he was justified in saying that some of the most eminent architects and men of science, when they saw it completed, had expressed an opinion that it was a perfect success, and that when all the other improvements were carried out the Guildhall would be second only to Westminster, and would be second to no other hall of a like character in this coun try. He believed that they had gone in the right direction, and that in the result it would be said by the world at large that the Corporation of London was perfectly competent to undertake a great work of this description, and to carry it out successfully. The hon. member then referred to some details of the proposed alterations, and expressed his opinion that the opening of the windows in the hall was one of the grandest efforts for its restoration, and that when they were illuminated, as it was proposed they should be, the effect could hardly be guessed at. He then said that one of the alterations that was proposed to be carried out was to lower the statue and monuments, so as to bring them nearer to the eye, which would give a much better effect, and by a proposed alteration in the pavement of the hall an opportunity would be afforded for warming the building by means of hot-air pipes. Mr. STUART said he should be glad if Mr. Kelday would inform him what was the total amount that was intended to be expended in the improvements of the Guildhall. Mr. KELDAY said ho believed the original sum voted by the Court was £lB,OOO, and £5,900 was afterwards voted. Mr. J. SYMONS asked if the £15,000 now asked for was in addition-to those sums. Mr. KELDAY said that it was. Mr. FINLAY inquired whether the chairman was in a po sition to say in round numbers what those improvements were likely to cost from beginning to end. (A laugh.) Mr. KELDAY said he really was hardly able to answer the question. (Laughter.) All he could do was to assure the Court that no expense should be incurred for this object without their sanction. Mr. It. N. PHILIPPS said that the first estimate for these improvements was about £24,000, this being nearly £6,000 in excess of the original amount, and now they were asked for £15,000 more. Ho expressed his opinion that a great deal of this money had been expended in making altera tions that were not at all consistent with the original char acter of the hall, inasmuch as the matters to which he re ferred were not in existence until nearly two centuries after the Guildhall was erected. He complained of the lavish ex penditure of money by the committee on what, in his opi nion, were very doubtful matters of restoration, and said that if they were to continue in the same course he could not see where it was to end. Upon a division the report of the committee was agreed to by a majority of 40, the numbers being— For the motion Against A motion in which the Corporation was interested was then discussed with closed doors, and after the public were re-admitted some of the business upon tho paper was dia posed of, and the Court adjourned. The Loss of the Maria Somes, OFFICIAL REPORT. The following is the report of the magistrates to the Board of Trade with reference to the loss of the Maria Somes : My Lords,—We, the said justices, have the honour to report that the Maria Somes was a wooden vessel, built at Southtown, in the county of Suffolk, in the year 1841, registered in London, of the bnrthen of 785 9-10 tons. She was owned by Mr. George Seymour, of 116, Fenchurch street, in the city of London, and was commanded by Mr. George Lambton, who holds a certificate of service dated in 1851, and had a crew of 18 hands, all told. The Maria Somes left Sunderland (coal laden) on the 9th of May, bound to Alexandria, in Egypt. On leaving the port at 3 p.m., she was in charge of Mr. George Telford, a pilot licensed by the Trinity House of Newcastle-upon-Tyne for the North Sea, Eastern Coast of England, and the Baltic, and who also held a certificate of service as a master in the mercantile marine. It would appear from the evidence that Mr. Telford's services as pilot were secured by the ship's husband in the presence of and with the full concurrence of the master, who was to pay half the pilotage to the Downs. The weather on leaving was thick, with rain, and the wind a moderately fresh breeze at N.N.E. The evidence shows that the courses steered, if correctly stated, should have taken the vessel well clear of Whitby Rocks. The ship was lost upon them shortly after midnight, and it is difficult to believe that the courses, as given, could have been correctly steered ; for, if they were, we cannot account for the loss of the ship. Be that as it may, the weather was so thick that neither the land nor the lights were visible in passing along the coast. Yet, nevertheless, the lead was not used till the ship struck, about 200 yards from Whitby Pier end, and became a total wreck. The crew were saved by the Whitby lifeboat. We are of opinion that the pilot was alone responsible for the loss of the said ship ; for, however great his experience of the coast might have been, he was not justified in neglecting the lead in such weather as is described by the witnesses brought before us. From the evidence adduced we find that it is very much the practice of the northern ports, of ships bound foreign, to take a pilot as far as the Downs, and it is thought a pru_ rY m ' aster is but adletnhtoumgehastuhree,prkillorttaigcue liasrnlyotwchomenputhlseo imper fectly acquainted with the navigation of the East Coast of England. We are not prepared to gainsay the Propriety of this custom, but we hold that the fact of having a pilot on board (oven when the pilotage is compulsory) does not exempt the master from the ordinary care and duty of his ship. The pilot so called is there to assist him in tho navigation where the master's knowledge may be presumed to be imperfect, and any laches on the part of the pilot, such as the ordinary precaution of using the lead, ought in strictness to be visited upon the master. In this case the master acted as many others have done before him, by giving up charge to the pilot, he himself not being acquainted with the coast. When the weather became so thick that objects at a very short distance could not be discerned, had the master been at his post instead of be low, it would have been his duty to see that his lead was timely hove—a precaution which in this case would have saved the ship. As we have no power to deal with the pilot under the Merchant Shipping Act, we must leave his neglect to be dealt with by the pilotage authority. But as regards the conduct of the master, seeing that he was unacquainted with the coast, and having full reliance on Given under our hands at the Town-hall in the said borough of Tynemouth, on this 26th day of May, 1865.

(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd) Dr RE ELSH, STEWARD, AND BAILLIE.-A SCENE AT THE COURT. -GREAT HARDSHIP ON WORKING MEN. These bankrupts were described as iron shipbuilders of Poplar, and to-day they mine up to pass their last exami nation, and for the order of discharge. The debts aro stated to be between £BO,OOO and £lOO,OOO, and the assets but limited. There was quite a scone at the court this morning consequent upon the attendance of about one hundred workmen employed by the firm who have been obliged to attend the court to prove debts, due for wages, ranging from 12s. 6d. to £2 14s. The avenues of the court and the street in Basinghall-street, was thronged by the poor fellows, who have been compelled by the rules of the court to lose a day's work in order to attend here and enforce their several claims. A very littlo consideration would have spared all this, as the clerk to the assignees might have communicated with them and made proper:arrangements for their protection. Mr. Bagley (for a widow lady) applied that a portion of a premium paid to the bankrupt upon the apprenticeship of the lady's son to the bankrupt might bo returned. The sum paid was nearly £3OO. _ _ _ Mr: Hilleary (for the assignees) said this was a very seri ous case for the creditors, and it was doubtful whether there would be more than a trifle for the creditors. There was £BOO in hand, but out of this £2OO would be required for wages to workmen, and thensoMe of the clerks nanted salaries. Perhaps.tha t:pprontice's mother would accept zloo. His Honour ordered that £l5O should be returned, sub ject to the usual conditions. His Honour then directed another adjournment. After the order, a creditor made a complaint against tho delay in this matter, and the workmen, who are creditors, were by no means satisfied with the position of affairs.
