has been republished in the form of a bilolt pamphlet The
realer of " I'unch" should read this pamphlet also. He has
often read, in the pages of "Punch," of a rtain Quacks, frau-
dulent and noisome, who obtain money by false pretences,
and more money by menaces and extortion, from green
young mmn. For their mimes, which " Punch" would not
advertise, he has refer, t d his readers to the lower corner of
the advertisin columns of low newspapers, amongst which
too many of Mr." Punch's" contemporaries, especially in the
country, may still be enumerated. Hut now he begs to pub-
lish the information that a nominal list of these miscreants,
with c;pies of their puffs and other particulars concerning
them, n edtut to be known, will be found in tr e pamplal t
above ref. rrcd to, which is entitled " Revelations of Quacks
an i Quackery," aid is to be had at the " Medic it Circular "
office, 20, Ring William-street, St. and, WA,-
The vile practices,
the monstrout im:,udence, the cruel
rapacity, and the enormous g tins of the obscene tribe of
Qu rcks, the mischief they do, the ruin they work, even to
the causationof t.ui.cide, are sully set for h in " itevelaiions
of Quacks a,,cl Qaakery." And mark espec'aliy th rt, as
aforesaln, the names of the Quacks are publishe i. The
Di-
rectory, bf
pamphlet question thus constitutes a regular Quack
where he may go if he 'wishes to get plundered and destroyed
Buy, therefore, reader,. by all means buy " develations of
Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse
Con' uuting which every young man may know
whi e
.they invoke your indignation and disgust. Or
course you :o not want It on account of its warnings for you'
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 the Quacks that 'Punch' means ?"
Consider what it is to e able to answer this question of the
young and inexperienced, and, for charity's sake, If for no
other, go and provide yourself with "Revelations of Quacks
and Quackery," by Detector._Punch, April 12.

DR. QUAIN AND HIS PROFESSION.--While Dr.
Quain was giving evidence the other day before a
committee of the House of Commons, Mr. Roebuck said to
him—Do you not think that there would be some protec-
tion for the public if prescriptions were written in English?
Dr. Quain—l do not the lout in the world. Mr. Roebuck—
No check upon your own profession ? Dr. Quain—Not the
least in the world. The amount of Latin that is required
for writing prescriptions is so very small it can be easily
acquired. Mr. Roebuck—l suppose there are not 50 per
cent. of the medical men who could write them if you re-
quired the terminations ? Dr. Quain—l will not say that.
In the course of the same examination Mr. Roebuck asked
prescriptions are written in
—Do you know in France all
French ? Dr. Quain—lt is often illegible French ; and,
moreover, the thing prescribed does but little good or harm
Mr. Roebuck—ls that your opinion of French physicians ?
Dr. Quain—From experience I can say that the French
generally prescribe what does very little good, and certainly
does very little harm.—The Reader.

THUNDERSTORMS.—The long drought in the North
and East Ridings was terminated on Friday night
by a succession of thunderstorms, which were repeated on
Saturday, accompanied with heavy rain,. No accident of
consequence is reported, and the benefits to the crops by
the rains are very great. The weather for several days has
been extremely hot. A most violent thunderstorm occurred
at Birmingham on Saturday. It lasted two hours, from 1
to 3 o'clock p.m., and during the whole of that time there
poured an immense torrent of hail and rain. The hail-
stones were of enormous size, and so thoroughly frozen
that they lay in masses on the roofs of buildings. The
heavy peals of thunder and lightning flashes followed in
rapid succession, and a considerable amount of damage
was done.

A WARNING TO LADIES.—The Publicize of Mar-
seilles announces a new kind of strike—that of
bachelors. Not fewer than 6,000 young men, it states, of
that place, between the age of 20 or 30, held a meeting in
the open air a little way out of the town, and entered into
an agreement not to ask any young woman in marriage
until a complete change shall have been operated in the
manner of living, and particularly in the dress of the fair
sex. The young men insist on greater simplicity in every
respect, and a return to the more modest habits of a cen-
tury or two ago.

The strength of the camp at Aldershott has just
been augmented by the arrival of several regiments
and detachments, including the Ist battalion Grena-
dier Guards, from Wellington Barracks, and the
3d (King's Own) Hussars, from Manchester. The
Guards are under the command of Col. Ponsonby,
and are encamped upon a portion of Cove-com-
mon usually assigned to the regiments of the bri-
gade. The marching-in strength of the battalion
was 21 officers, 36 sergeants, 32 corporals, 29 drum-
mers, and 514 privates—total, 632. The 3d Hussars
are under the command of Lieut.-Col. Howard
Vyse, and are also encamped on Cove-common.
Six troops of the 2d Dragoons (Scots Grays) left
Aldershott Camp on Saturday morning for special
service as follows :—Three troops to Manchester,
under command of Col. Clarke ; one troop to Bury,
one to Ashton, and one to Burnley. The head-
quarters and two troops of the regiment will remain
at Aldershott for the present. The troops compos-
ing the Aldershott division, under the command of
Lieut.-Gen. Sir John Pennefather, K.C.8., con-
tinue to be actively exercised in all the duties of the
military service. Field days occur every week, and
the whole division is taking its turn by regiments
and detachments in " flying columns." On Tuesday
a grand divisional field-day took place at Eelmoor,
when Lieut.-Gen. Sir Hugh Rose, Lieut.-Gen. Lord
Melville, Lieut.-Gen. the Earl of Cardigan, and
other officers were present. On Wednesday and
Thursday the third flying column detached from
the division this season marched for Sandhurst,
there to encamp. The column consisted of the Bth
Hussars, under command of Lieut.-Col. Mac-
naghten D Battery Royal Horse Artillery, under
Lieut.-Col. Michell ; the Ist battalion 14th Regi-
ment, under Col. Budd ; the 69th Regiment, under
Col. Mackirdy ; and the 74th Highlanders, under
Lieut.-Col. M'Leod. The column, which was under
the command of Major-Gen. Hodge, C. 8., was in-
spected on Friday by Lieut.-Gen. Sir J. L. Penne-
father, and put through some interesting field
movements, which were performed with great dex-
terity. According to the orders first issued the
column was to move to Fleetpond on Saturday,
but in all probability it will remain encamped at
Sandhurst until to-morrow, with the exception of
the Royal Horse Artillery and the Bth Hussars,
which will return to their quarters at Aldershot this
day.
The screw steam frigate Constance, 39 guns no-
minal, Capt. Barnard, is appointed to move to-day
from Hamoaze into Plymouth Sound. Her burthen
is 3,213 tons, and it is probable that she will undergo
a trial cruise of three months in the Channel with
her sister frigates the Arethusa, 35, Captain Mac-
donald, of 3,141 tons, and the Octavia, 39, Capt.
Hellyer, 3,161 tons. All three have engines of 500
horse power. After the trial the Constance proceeds
to the West Indies.
