ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.

This Company is formed for the construction and work-
ing of two lines of railway in Peru—one to connect the
seaport of Pisco with the town of Yca ; the other to con-
nect the city of Arequipa with the port of Mejia.
The Peruvian Government guarantees for the period of
twenty-five years—or until the railways have produced
over and above the cost and provision for repair, renova-
tion, and maintenance for the space of two consecutive
years, dividends at the rate of 7 per cent. per annum—
an income of £233,800 per annum, charged upon the public
revenues of the State, and further secured by hypotheca-
tion of the guano shipped to European States. The con-
cessions for the railways contain the usual provision for
reimbursing to the Government (out of any surplus profit
exceeding a 10 per cent. per annum dividend to the share-
holders) such sums, if any, as may have been paid by them
to cover their guarantee.
The concessions are for a period of 99 years from the open-
ing of the railways. A sufficient sum will be set apart to
form a sinking fund for the redemption of the whole capi-
tal, at a premium of £lOO per cont., to be operative yearly
after the first 20 years of the working of the railways.
A contract for the construction of the lines has been
entered into with the International Contract Company
(Limited), according to the estimates of G. P. Bidder, Esq.,
C.E., and J. M. Heppe], Esq., C.E.
In accordance with the terms of each concession the Com-
pany will be converted into a Societ6 Anonyms with shares
to bearer, or, if necessary, into two Societes Anonymes.
The capital of the Socidte Anonyms, or Soci6t6s Ano-
nymes,will be £3,340,000—t0 be issued in shares andbonds.
Applications for shares must be made, addressed to the
Directors ; but no application will be considered unless
accompanied by the receipt of one of the Bankers of the
Company for £1 per share on the number of shares ap-
plied for.

REVELATIOI\f of QUACKS and QUACKERY.
By Db.TECTOB.

For notices of this startling work see the "Saturday Re-
view" of April 1, entitled "Quacks and Quackery ; ' the
"Weekly D;spatch" of April 9, "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. He has
often lead, 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 many of Mr. " Punch's" contemporat les, especially in the
country, may still be enumerated. But now he begs to pub-
lish .he information that a nominal list of these miscreants,
with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning
them, n. edful to be known, will be found in the pamplil. t
above referred to, which is entitled " Revelati,ns of Quacks
an i Quackery." and is to be had 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 cauaat ion of suicide, are auily set for h in "Revelations
of Quacks at.d Qackery." And mark especially that, as
aforesaid, the names of the Quacks a. e published. The
pamphlet iu question thus constitutes a regular Quack Di-
rectory, by codsulting which every young man may know
where he may go if be wk hes to get pl undered and destroyed.
Buy, the More, reader, by all means bay "Revelations of
Quacks and Quackery." 1 s con ents will astonish and amuse
y.tu, whi e they invoke you indignation and disgust. Of
coarse you do not want .t on account of its warnings for your
own sake, but vou doubtless do for .hat of the many simple-
tons with whoin you must be acquaiuted, if your acquaint-
ance is large. " Who are toe Quacks that 'Punch' means 7"
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, go and provide yourself with "Revelations of Quacks
and quackery, ' by Detector.—Punch, April' 12.

tion of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without spriugs, wires,
or ligatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth
as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest
observer; they will never change colour or decay, and will
be found superior to any teeth ever before used. This
method does not require the extraction of roots, or any pain-
ful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are
loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastica-
tion. Decayed teeth stepped and rendered sound and useful
in mastication.

England to the Antipodes•

A most important era in ocean steam navigation
in relation to the communication between England
and the colonies was inaugurated on Thursday and
Saturday last in the trial of the Panama, New Zea-
land, and Australian Royal Mail Company's twin
screw steamship Ruahine, a trial that was attended
in every sense with the most brilliant success, giving
a promise of more rapid and regular communication
than is existing at present between this country and
the most vigorous and flourishing of our colonies,
and also of increased dividends to the shareholders
of an already,very prosperous company, that up to
the present time has performed the inter-colonial
mail service between Sydney and New Zealand and
the various provinces of the latter colony, and for
which a subsidy of £42,000 is paid. The establish-
ment of a direct mail and passenger route between
New Zealand and England via Panama has been
freely agitated in the colony, and urged upon the
attention of tie Government for some time past, and
at length- the required direct service has been sanc-
tioned and will be opened by the Ruahine, the first
completed of several vessels building by the company
to run between Panama and Wellington, New Zea-
land. It is stated that by running boats directbetween
theie two ports the distance between England and
New Zealand will be shortened by 2,000 miles, as
compared with the present route via Point de- Gallen-
while at the same time the always disagreeable voy-
age round Cape Horn, with its attendant dangers of
storms, fogs, and icebergs, will be avoided, and thus
render the passage to England from Sydney via New
Zealand and Panama far preferable in the opinion of
the public to the old route by Point de Galle and
Suez. In building vessels, however, to run between
New Zealand and Panama therewere two paramount
considerations that had to be entertained in prefer-
ence to all others. The first was that, by the terms
of the contract entered into by the company with
the Government, a speed of 10 knots had to be made
from port to port. The second consideration was,
as the distance between the two ports is 7,000 miles,
the selection of an efficient form of vessel and de-
scription of engine, with a sufficient fuel-carrying
capacity. A brief description of the Ruahine, and
of the trial she has undergone so far, will best show
how far these considerations have been met, and
what are the chances of the company successfully
carrying out the conditions of their contract ; the
exact terms of the contract being that if the mail
service is performed between Panama and New Zea-
land at a 10 knot speed the company shall receive a
subsidy of £lOO,OOO. This part of the service be-
tween England and New Zealand will be done by
`the company's own boats, but the Atlantic part of
the service, from Colon to Southampton, will be done
by the boats of the West India Royal Mail Com-
pany, who thus participate in the general scheme,
and give considerable prestige to the younger com-
pany's success in their undertaking. The chief duties
of the boats will be the conveyance of mails, pas-
sengers, and specie, with but very light goods as
cargo. There are six lines of first-class steamboats
all converging at Colon, and it is not unreasonably
expected that all these lines will be to a certain ex-
tent feeders to the new line. Reverting, however, to
the Ruahine—she is a vessel of 1,640 tons, builders'
measurement ; 180 ft. between perpendiculars ; 34ft.
6in. moulded breadth, with a depth of 28ft. from
top of keel to the underside of her spar deck. Her
load draught is 18ft, and her load displacement 2,440
tons. She is fitted with two pairs of engines of the
combined nominal power of 400-horse, with two
pairs of annular cylinders, the diameter of the inner
cylinders being 25.5 in., and of the outer ones 62.5
in., the length of the stroke being 2ft. Working in-
dependently, as is now the rule with twin screw en-
gines, they drive two tii;ee-bladed screws, having a
diameter of 10ft. Gin. and a pitch of 18ft. Gin. The
boilers—and this is one of the peculiarities of the
vessel—are only on a moderate scale, with 10 fur-
naces, having a fire-bar surface of 200 square feet.
The surface condensers are Davis's patent, the water
passing through the tubes with the steam on the out-
side of the tubes, with one air pump and one circu-
lating pump to each condenser, both of which are
driven direct from the piston ; so that these conden-
sers can be used in the ordinary way without any
further trouble than closing one valve and open-
ing a cock, without even slowing the engines. Messrs.
J. and W. Dudgeon, of Millwall, the builders of the
Ruahine and her engines, have by the adoption of
boilers to their 350-horse power engines, the latter
fitted with high expansion gear and with surface
condensers, and the power of the engines be ex-
pended on twin screws, which may be driven toge-
ther separately accordingly as the vessel may have
the wind, thus endeavoured to solve the somewhat
difficult problem of ecenomy of fuel with the main-
tenance of a ten-knot. rate of speed in a stretch of
7,200 miles across the Pacific. The wind may be
said to be nearly abeam each way on the run be-
tween Wellington and Panama, and as the Ruahine
is being rigged she will be enabled to take due ad-
vantage of this circumstance ; but, putting aside
considerations of advantage to be derived from the
vessel's canvas,
her coal bunkers have a measured
stowage for 1,200 tons of fuel—much beyond what
her requirements would be if steaming at full power
all the distance. In her external appearance the
Ruahine is a bold, handsome looking vessel. In-
side she has a wonderful amount of accommodation
for a vessel of her tonnage, carrying on her main
deck berths for 70 first-class passengers, 46 second-
class passengers, and 70 third-class passengers. Her
after saloon, 77ft. in length, is richly yet chastely
fitted, the predominant colour of the fittings and
upholstery work being a pale sea green.
The first trial of the ship took place on Thurs-
day, when she left the City Canal at 2 15 p.m. for
the Maplin Sands, drawing 15ft. 3in. of water aft
and 14ft. 3in. forward, having 350 tons of the
" navigation steam coal" on board, of the kind
stored at Portsmouth Dockyard for the exclusiveuse
of her Majesty's yachts. The tide was at high
water, with the wind light from S.S.W. It was the
builder's trial day, Messrs. Dudgeon very justly de-
siring to have a quiet day's experience of the ship's
power of steaming under ordinary circumstances,
and without any effort being made in the engine-
in any way. This wish
push"builderswt ship
was strictly
adhered to throughout
the day, and under these wholesome conditions the
roofom the to
"
following very satisfactory results were attained :
—Steaming down the river with the first of the
ebb tide, Erith pier was passed at 2 45
p.m., the engines making 88 revolutions, with
a steam pressure of 261 b., and a vacuum of 27 and
26k in., the distance gone over since starting being
10 land miles, the time 30 luinutes, and the rate of
the ship's speed 20 land miles per hour. In running
past the measured mile in Long Reach, the wind
freshened to a force of from 3 to 4 on the vessel's
starboard bow, and the revolutions of the engines
were at the reduced rate of 82 and 84, as it was not
at first intended to time the ship in going over the
measured
course , • but the distance was done in 3
min. 52 sec., which gave the ship a speed of 15.517
knots, nautical. Gravesend town pier, 19i- miles
from Blackwall, was passed just within the hour,
and in running through the Lower Hope the ship
was timed over the Admiralty measured course, her
time in completing the mile being 3 min. 45 sec.,
and her speed 16 knots, the revolutions of the en-
gines being 86, both starboard and port, the steam
pressure 261 b., and the vacuum still maintaining its
rate of 26k and 27k in. In all this work, as in fact
in the entire distance to the Maplin Sands, and the
-Nore Light vessel, the ship had the tide with her,
but the rate at which the vessel was going exceeded
the anticipations of all on board. So far as the run
down the Thames may be looked upon as a test of
the ship's speed, it will suffice to say that the entire
distance between Blackwall pier and the Nore Light
vessel—a measured distance, as shown by " Pryce's
Distance and Knot-tables," of 42 land miles—was
done in 2 h. 5 min., including stoppages and easing

of the engines caused by other vessels being at times
in the Ruahine's course ahead.

After passing the Nore Light the Ruahine was
taken to the Admiralty official trial measured-mile
course off the Maplin Sands, and given a turn over
the course each way, with and against the tide, her
time being taken with the same impartial strictness
that is observed on board her Majesty's ships on
trials, but without their exceptional measures in the
stokehole or engine-room, which can never after-
wards be repeated in fair steaming at sea. The two
runs were accomplished as follows :—No. 1, with
tide—time, 4min. 2sec. ; speed of ship, 14.876
knots. No. 2, against tide—time, 4min. 41 sec. ;

This concluded the trial of the ship on Thursday,
after coming pff the last mile her course was laid up
the river for Gravesend, where she remained in
readiness for her Saturday's trip. The vessel started
from off Gravesend on her second trip on Saturday,
about 2 p.m., with a party of upwards of 200 ladies
and gentlemen on board, including, among the latter,
Lord Claud Hamilton, chairman of the company,
with several directors, and the secretary, Mr. Wor-
ley ; Sir Charles Clifford and Sir Daniel Cooper,
from Sydney and New Zealand ; Admirals the Earl
of Lauderdale and Sir Edward Belcher; Hon. Ralph
Dutton, M.P. ; Captains R.N., Cospetrick, Bs?
Hamilton, G. Blane, H. Caldwell, C. 8., command-
ing her Majesty's ship Asia and the Portsmouth
Steam Reserve ; T. E. Symonds, J. Kennedy, C. 8.,
Mr. John Dinnen, Inspector of Machinery Afloat
to the Admiralty; Messrs. Lubbock and Roberts,
of the city ; Mr. Gellattley (Dunbar and Co.), Capt.
Benson, lately of the General steam ship Argo, &c.
On reaching the Nore Light-vessel, off Sherness,
the time was taken thence to the Mouse Light-ves-
sel, the extremity of the vessel's intended
trip for the day, and the distance was ac-
complished in 21min., and 31sec., giving the
ship a speed, with the tide of over 15 knots. When
the ship's engires were going at the highest rate of
speed the fuel burnt was measured by the represen-
tatives of the company and Messrs. Dudgeon, and
was found to be at the rate of 1 ton per hour—that
is, 1 ton of coal burnt in the furnaces for the rate
of speed the ship attained, the pressure of steam
during the hour the measurement was taken com-
mencing at 251 b. and ending with 271 b. It is con-
fidently anticipated that the Ruahine will make the
passage between Panama and Wellington, New
Zealand, and vice versa, in the space of 25 days, and
that the entire passage from Wellington to South-
ampton will be accomplished in 45 days. Captain
Bird, formerly of the General Steamship Company's
steamers Golden Fleece and Lady Jocelyn, is the
commander of the Ruahine. In returning to
Gravesend the numerous company on board sat
down to a sumptuous dejeuner, provided by Mr.
Atkins, of Tilbury. The vessel reached Gravesend
about 7 p.m., and landed her freight at Tilbury
pier, whence a special train conveyed them to town.

ELECTION INTELLIGENCE.

LAMBETH.

A public meeting took place last evening at the

Horns Tavern, Kennington, to hear from Mr. T.
Hughes, author of " Tom Brown's School Days,"
and a candidate for the representation of Lambeth,
an exposition of Iris political sentiments. The Rev.
J. C. Napleton occupied the chair.
Mr. HUGHES, after detailing at some length the
reasons which had induced him to accept the invita-
tion he had received to come forward as a candi-
date, proceeded to state his views upon the principal
political questions of the day. lle said he was no
great admirer of the ballot, but was prepared to sup-
port it if accompanied by a largely extended suffrage,
believing it would be necessary to insure the good
working of that extended suffrage. In regard to the
suffrage itself he was prepared to give a franchise
which would embrace the largest possible number of
the workilg elasses--(hear, hear)—believing that
they were well qualified to possess it. He agreed
with Mr. Gladstone that every man not mentally or
morally incapacitated was entitled to the franchise.

" Oh !" but say some, " this is manhood suffrage."
Possibly so, but he was not to be scared by a mere
word. He thought a manhood suffrage was far pre-
ferable to a brick and mortar suffrage. (Hear.)
Helms a Church of England man, but was opposed
strongly to the system of church rates, which he con-
sidered rather a dragchain than an assistance on the
Church itself. With respect to our present system
of taxation, he thought, on the whole, a mixed
system of indirect and direct taxation was the best
that could be devised, but that the income tax, as at
present levied, was levied most unjustly on the man
of small income of from £lOO to £l5O per annum,
and he should be prepared to assist in removing this
inequality. With regard to the existing agitation
against the liquor traffic he was not prepared to sup-
port the so-called Permissive Bill. He asked espe-
cially for the support of the working class electors,
not only on account of his political principles, but
because he was prepared to enter fully into the
question of labour and capital, now so prominently
before the public. He might also take the opportu-
nity of stating that he was one of two persons who
had drawn up the Industrial and Provident Societies
Act—a measure which had greatly promoted the
establishment of co-operative societies. He was
prepared to support all measures for extending
education among the people. After some further
remarks he concluded by saying he now left his case
in the hands of the meeting.

Mr. HUGH WALLACE moved the following resolu-
tion :—" That this meeting, having heard Mr. Thos.
Hughes's clear and explicit exposition of his political
principles, is of opinion that his sentiments are in
unison with those held by the majority of the elec-
tors of the borough of Lambeth, and that his ac-
quirements and knowledge of public business render
him eminently qualified to represent Lambeth in the
ensuing Parliament."

Mr. WHITLOCK seconded the resolution, which
was carried unanimously.

CARDIFF.

In The Sun of Friday a paragraph appeared in
reference to the representation of this boroughwhich
was not correct in all particulars. It appears that
Col. Stuart, the present member, has no intention of
retiring, and he has already issued an address to the
electors seeking re-election. He will be opposed by
Mr. Hardinge Giffard, Q.C., who comes forward in
the Conservative inteirest, and is supported by the
Carlton Club. It is not yet known how the Bute
influence will go, but the general impression j that
the trustees of the young marquis will remain neutral,
as Col. Stuart, although opposed to them in politics,
is the next heir to the marquisate. The Liberals
are strong in the borough, and there is no doubt
entertained but that they will return the present
member again by a large majority.

PRICE 4d.

Another candidate is spoken of on the Conservative
side—one who fills the position of Mayor of one of
the principal Carnarvonshire boroughs. He has not
as yet published his address.
