REVELATIONof QUACKS and QUACKERY.
By D r.TECTOR.
_ • _

For notices of this starting work see the "Saturday Re-
view" of April 1, entitled 'Quacks and Quackery ;" the
" Weekly Dispatch" of April 'v. " 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 " itedical 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. He has
often read, in the pages of "Punch," of certain Quacks, frau-
dulent and noisome, who obtain money by false pretences,
and more money by menaces and extortion, from green
young men. For their names, which "Punch" would not
advertise, he has referred his readers to the lower corner of
the advertising columns of low newspapers, amongst which
too mauy of Mr." Punch's" contemporaries, especially in the
country, may still be enumerated. But now he begs to pub-
lish the information that a nominal list of these miscreants,
with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning
them, needful to be known, will be found in the pamphl, t
above referred to, which is entitled "Revelations of Quacks
and Quackery," and is to be bad at the "Medical Circular "
Office, 20, King William-street, Strand, W.C.
The vile, practices, the monstrous impudence, the cruel
rapacity, and the enormous gains 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 " R.evelations
of Quacks and Qackery." And mark especially that, as
aforesaid, the names of the Quacks are publishe i. The
pamphlet iu question thus constitutes a regular Quack Di-
rectory, bf 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, whi e they invoke your 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 the Quacks that 'Punch' means ?"
Consider what it is to he able to answer Vile 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.

MARKETS---This Day.

Fresh up :to our market to-day the arrivals of wheat
from Essex and Kent were very moderate, and nearly the
whole of the supply was received in good condition. As
regards all qualities, the trade was decidedly firm. A
clearance of the supply brought forward was steadily
effected, and both red and white samples changed hands at
an advance in prices from Monday last of is. per
quarter, making an improvement, as compared with- the
rates current on Monday last, of 2s. per quarter.

The market was but moderately supplied with foreign
wheat, both as regards American and Continental pro-
duce. The trade was firm for all qualities, and for good
and fine old samples rather more money was obtained.
Floating cargoes of grain were in fair average request,
and both wheat and spring corn fully supported previous
rates.

The supply of barley on sale was very moderate. All
descriptions fully supported previous quotations, and a fair
average business was transacted.
The malt trade was quiet on former terms.
With oats the market was well supplied. Most descrip-
tions were in fair average request at full currencies.
Beans were in short supply, and the trade ruled firm at
fully late rates.
Peas commanded the extreme prices of Monday last.
The market was scantily supplied with all qualities.
About an average business was transacted in flour. No
change took place in the prices realised. Barrel flour was
in very short supply.

Particulars.

Death of President Lincoln,

--~

A crowded public meeting was held on Saturday night at
St. James's Hall, for the purpose of expressing the feelings
of detestation with which they had heard of the assassination
of President Lincoln, and their condolence with his widow
and the peopleof the United States. The chair was taken
by Mr. W. Evans. Among the gentlemen present on the
platform were—Mr. Crum Ewing, M.P. ; Mr P. A. Taylor,
M.P. ; Mr. W. E. Forster, M.P. ; Mr. G. Hadfield, M.P.;
Mr. Grenfell, M.P. ; Mr. T. B. Potter, M.P. ; Mr. Caird,
M.P.; Mr. E. Baines, M.P.; Mr. J. White, M.P.; Mr. B.A.
Leatham, M.P.; Mr. J. Stansfeld, M.P. ; Mr. Gurney,:M.P.
for Falmouth; Hon. A. Kinnaird, M.P. ; Hon. Mr. Stanley
(son of Lord Stanley of Alderley), Professor Fawcett, Mr.
Edmund Beales, Mr. Mason Jones, Mr. Vernon Harcourt,
Major Evans Bell (Madras Army), Dr. Hodgkin, Mr. Ser-
geant Parry, Mr. B. Moran (secretary to the American Le-
gation), Judge Winter, Mr. Cyrus H. Field, Dr. Cleveland
(Connecticut, United States), Dr. Bliss, Colonel Hoe, Rev.
R. Everest, and others.
The CHAIRMAN briefly explained the object for which the
meeting was called, and expressed a hope that, although the
country had lost the valuable guidance of President Lincoln,
his successor would be actuated by the same policy and
guided by the same principles as those which had been pro-
fessed and acted upon by the great and good man who had
been the victim of the foul murder which they all deprecated.
Mr. CRESSON, the secretary, read a letter from Sir C. Lyall,
regretting his inability to attend, and stated that he had re-
ceived letters to a similar effect from Lord Hou ghton, Mr
Bazley, M.P., Mr. Goschen, M.P., Mr. Buxton, M.P., and.
others.

Railway and other Companies.

PEMBROKE AND TENBY.
The half-yearly meeting was held at Tenby on
Wednesday, Mr. W. Owen in the chair.
The report stated that the line had been satis-
factorily worked under the agreement with Messrs.
Davies and Roberts, and the traffic had largely in-
creased. A dividend was recommended at the rate
of 5 per cent. per annum for the half-year. The
works on the Whitland extension were being rapidly
pushed forward, and the line to the Begelly coal-
field was expected to be opened in October.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, said they were negotiating with the Great
Western Company to lay down a narrow-gauge
line on part of the South Wales, and unless they
succeeded they must have an independent line of
their own.

Mr. HULME seconded the adoption of the report,
which was agreed to.
A dividend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum
was unanimously declared for the half-year ; Mr.
Owen and Captain Jackson were re-elected direc-
tors of the company, and Mr. Greenish was re-
elected auditor.

PENARTII.

The half-yearly meeting was held at the offices,
Penarth, Cardiff, on Thursday—Mr. J. H. Insole
in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the
report, an abstract of which has appeared in The
Sun, stated that the docks were in the hands of the
Taff Vale Railway Company since the Ist of July,
and the interest of 41 per cent. on the ordinary
capital expended in construction would commence
from that date.

The report was unanimously adopted, and a divi-
dend at the rate of 5 per cent. per annum was de-
clared on the preference shares, leaving a balance
of £ll4 to be carried forward to the next account.

MANCHESTER, SHEFFIELD, and LINCOLNSHIRE.

The total expenses of this company's railways,
and canals, including rents, tolls, duty, &c., from
the Isc of July to the 27th of Aust, 1865, amounted
to 71,869, as against £66,702 for the correspond-
ing period of 1864. The proportion of the South
Junction receipts according to this company from
Ist of July to the 27th of August amounted to
£6,703, as against £6,542 for the corresponding
period of 1864, and the expenses to £2,736, as
against £2,735.

POLICE IN'

I.—This Day.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.
THE CASE OP MR. HENRY TOWNLEY.—The sitting
magistrate (Mr. Arnold) has received the following letter:
" Worshipful Sir,---I have read a leading article in the
Morning Advertiser of the 23rd ult., respecting the case of
Henry Townley, an old soldier. The article strongly re-
commends the public to assist him, but the journal, as a
rule, declines to receive subscriptions. Being of the
opinion of a subscriber of the Ist of September, that pub-
licity may cause others like myself to subscribe. I trust
your worship will pardon the liberty I have taken, and
receive any subscriptions on behalf of the old soldier.—l
remain, your most obedient servant, J. GOUGH Ilialdon-
road, Haverstock-hill.

The writer has forwarded 255. as his own subscription
and ss. from "R. B." Mr. Townley can have the money
provided for his use by applying at the court.
DETERMINED SUICIDE OF A RIFLE VOLUNTEER.—About
two o'clock this morning it was discovered that a man
about 30 years of age, named Frederick Lawton, a stage
carpenter, and also a member of the 29th Middlesex Rifles,
had committed suicide at No. 38, Great Windmill-street,
Haymarket. It appears that at the time above-stated the
wife of the deceased went home and found the deceased
lying on the floor in a pool of blood. Sergeant Lees, 9C,
and a constable, as also Mr. Harris, surgeon, of Windmill-
street, were called in, when the head of the deceased was
found to be most frightfully shattered, he having dis-
charged the contents of a rifle in his mouth. Attached
to the trigger of the rifle was a loop, into which the de-
ceased had placed his foot, so as to enable him to dis-
charge the rifle. It is said that the deceased was an ex-
cellent shot, and had received several prizes from rifle
corps. Some unpleasantness between the deceased and
his wife is alleged to be the cause of the deceased com-
mitting the desperate act.

DISGRACEFUL TRADE OUTRAGE.—John Banks, a stone-
mason, was charged with wilfully damaging and destroy-
ing six pair of stone trusses, valued at 155., the property
of Mr. George Rogers, Gaisford-street, Kentish-town
builder.

William Edmonds, watchman at some buildings in Islip-
street, Camden-town, said he saw the prisoner, who was
engaged upon the works, enter the premises and break six
stone trusses, which are fixed to support the mantel-pieces.
Having done this ho left the place.

Mr. Rogers deposed the prisoner had been in his employ,
and the property destroyed belonged to him. One was a
pattern he had purchased for him to work by. He was paid
his wages between 1 and 2 on Saturday, when there was a
dispute about the amount. He had made his bill out for
£3, and he had not earned 10s. He was, however,
paid 10s.

Prisoner said he worked the wholo of last week with the
exception of a few hours on Friday afternoon, when he
left to have some beer with a mate. On Friday night he
sent in his bill for £3, thinking to receive it. He, how-
ever, did not receive a quarter of the amount, and that
was no use for him to take home to his eight children.
Seeing the trusses, upon which his son had been at work
he broke them.

Mr. Yardley observed that the prisoner had shown the
character of a spiteful and malicious man, and it would
serve him right if he was sent to hard labour. As there
appeared to have been Bomb dispute about wages, he would
not do that upon this occasion. He would order him to
pay 155., the amount of damage, in addition to 20s. fine,
or be imprisoned for 14 days.

CONCEALMENT OF CHILDBIRTIL—JaIIe Padley, servant,
late of Torriang-avenue, was charged with unlawfully en-
deavouring to conceal the birth of an illegitimate female
child. The evidence was not conclusive as to the conceal-
ment, for she told her mistress of her confinement, and she
had also provided baby linen.
Mr. Yardley discharged her.

CRUELTY TO A CAT.—Joseph York, aged 23, and George
Hopkins, a lad, were charged with cruelty to a cat. The
evidence showed that the prisoner Hopkins held the cat up
by the tail, whilst York poured some turps or vitriol upon
it. A man who saw this done destroyed the cat out of its
agony, and gave the prisoners into custody. York was
fined 30s. or 14 days, and Hopkins ss. or seven days.
