REVELATION of QUACKSand QUACKERY.
By D ET ICTOII.

For notices of this startl ng work see the "Saturday Re-
view" of April 1, entitled "Quacks and Quackery ;" the
" Weekly, D spatch" of April " The Quacks and their
Crimes ;' "The Sun" of April 12, " ‘i./et-a.tor's' Broadside
on Quacks and Quackery."
GUIDE TO TICE 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. Ile has
of ten read, in the pages of "Punch," of a. rtain Quacks, frau-
dulent aril 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" 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. n edful to be known, will be found in the pamphl t
above referred to, which is entitled "Revelations of Quacks
ani Quackery," and is to be had at the "Medical Circular"
Office, 20, King William-street. Strand, W.O.
The vile practices, the monstrous impudence, the cruel
rapacity, and the enormous g..ins 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 publishei. 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 " It evelations of
Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse
you, whi e they invoke your indignation and disgust. Of
coarse 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 tne Quacks that 'Punch' means ?"
Consider what it is to he 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.

EASTERN BENGAL.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held on
Friday at the London Tavern ; Mr. J. F. Leith in the chair.
The report, an abstract of which has appeared in The Sun,
was taken as read.

The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the report,
said the traffic on the line had gradually progressed, and
on the whole he thought they wduld consider it satisfactory.
There was considerable difficulty in diverting the traffic in
India from the ordinary routes, and he thought they might
congratulate themselves on the accession of traffic to their
Kooshtee station on the Ganges. By this means the native
, merchants would avoid sending their goods in boats by
the tedious navigation of the Sunderbunds to Calcutta.
Since the last meeting the directors had ascertained
that the total loss to the company by the late cyclone
did not exceed £12,610. The traffic had gone on
increasing satisfactorily. The gross receipts for the
half-year ending the 31st of December last amounted
to £46,732, and for the corresponding half of 1863 to
£42,603, showing an increase of £4,129. The net receipts
amounted to £21,652 against £20,476 for the corresponding
half-of 1863. The tdtitl =niter of passengers carried-was
539,700 against 514,990 for the same half of 1863, shelving
an increase of 24,710. The increase of traffic on the line
would have been much greater if the feeder roads had been
completed, but he was sorry to say that not one of the feeder
roads had yet been completed to the railway, and conse-
quently the local traffic could not be developed. The chief
increase was from through traffic. Since the end of last
year the traffic had augmented in a greater proportion than
formerly. The receipts for the week ending March 18 last
amounted to £3,973, which was sufficient to pay at the rate
of 54 per cent. per annum on the cost of the railway, which
was about £15,000 a mile. The total cost of the 110 miles
was about £1,650,000. In the subsequent week ending
March 25 the receipts amounted to £4,534, which was a
larger receipt. The total receipts for the first 15 weeks of
the present year amounted for passengers to £23,313, and'
for goods to £19,290; together, £42,603,- which he thought
was very satisfactory. The water communications to
Kooshtee would materially assist them. With regard to the
passenger traffic, the establishment of a fourth class had
given great satisfaction to the native; as it enabled them
to preserve caste. It had also encouraged the natives to use
the railway for residential traffic near Calcutta. The first
and second class fares were lower than on the Past Indian
Railway, and should be raised to make them remunerative.
The first class fares were 12 pice per mile, or lid. ; second
class, 6 pice, or Id. per mile ; third class was 41 pice per
mile, and fourth class 3 pice, or three-eighths of a penny
per mile. The goods traffic consisted chiefly of produce from
the interior to Calcutta, but if the imports were as much the
waggons would not return empty, and they would have
the goods traffic both ways, up and down. The company's
staff had enjoyed good health during the past half-year.
The traffic has already exceeded the original estimate of Mr.
Purdon, their engineer. He had estimated the local traffic
at '.£55,000, and the through 'traffic from the Ganges at
£25,000, making £BO,OOO a-year ; the receipts for the year
1864 amounted to £92,000, which was £12,000 above the
estimate. They had repaid to the Government £82,475 out
of their net revenue on interest account to Dec. 31 last.
Sir F. HALLIDAY seconded the motion for the adoption of
the report, which was carried unanimously.
In reply to questions it was stated,that there was a com-
mission sitting in Calcutta on the subject of a bridge across
the Hooghly. The company's engineer had proposed that
the bridge should cross the river at either of the two points
—one 30 miles above Calcutta, and the other at 16 miles from
Calcutta, at either of which a junction lino could pass over
the bridge from the East Indian Railway to the Eastern of
Bengal Railway. The East Indian Railway Company had
proposed that the bridge should cross the Hooghly as near
their station at Howrah as possible. Howrah was at one
side of the river Hooghly and Calcutta on the other, similar
in position to London and Lambeth on each side of the
Thames. The point selected for crossing the Hooghly was
about 5 miles above Calcutta, and it was proposed to bring
the traffic of the East Indian Railway over the Eastern of
Bengal Railway to a central station at Sealdah, in Calcutta.
On the motion of Mr. FRANKLIN, seconded by Mr.
TUOMPSON, a resolution was unanimously passed requesting
the directors to communicate to the Government the re-
spectful romonstranceof the companyat the non-fulfilment
of expectations held out in reference to the construction of
feeder roads, the absence of which had deprived the com-
pany of remunerative local traffic which otherwise would
have come upon the line. •

The proceedings concluded with a vote of thanks to the
chairman.

LONDON AND NORTH-WESTERN.
An adjourned special meeting of this company was hold
on Saturday at the Euston station, to consider certain bills
now before Parliament; Mr. R. Benson in the chair.
Mr. C. E. Stewart, the secretary, haring read the notice
of adjournment,

The CHAIRMAN said there were only three bills ready to
submit for approval.

The Solicitor read the heads of a bill for conferring ad-
ditional powers on the London and North-Western Railway
Company, in relation to their own undertakings and the
undertakings of other companies in England and Scotland
and for other purposes. The principal object of the bill was
to enable the company to widen their line at Edghill, Man-
chester, and other places, to purchase additional lands, and
to extinguish the Bedford and Cambridge Railway Com-
pany. The capital authorised to bo raised by the bill was
£BOO,OOO, with the usual borrowing powers.
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, a formal resolution
approving the bill was adopted.
The Solicitor then read part of a bill for making a rail-
way from the West Midland Railway to the Coleford,
Monmouth, Usk, and Pontypool Railway ; section 45 gave
power to work the line and to make traffic arrangements.
The bill was approved.
The third bill submitted was a bill to confer further
powers upon the Carnarvon and Llanberis Railway Com-
pany and for other purposes ; section 22 gave permissive
powers to work the line and make traffic arrangements with
the London and North-Western Company.
On the motion of the CHAIRMAN, a formal resolution
'approving the bill was adopted, and the meeting was fur-.
ther adjourned to Thursday next.

SHREWSBITRY AND NORTH WALES.
On Saturday a special meeting of this company was held
at the offices, Broad Sanctuary,Westminster ; Mr. B. Lattey
in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN moved a formal resolution approving a
bill to authorise the construction of a railway in the county
of Salop, to be called the Shrewsbury and Potteries Junc-
tion Railway. lie said that the capital authorised by the
bill was £400,000, and the length of the line 45 miles.
The motion was agreed to unanimously, and the pro-
ceedings terminated.

MOLD AND DENBIGR .ITTNOTION.
A special meeting of this company was held at the offices,
Broad Sanctuary, Westminster, on Saturday; Mr. R. Latty
in the chair.

The CHAIRMAN said they had to consider two bills now
before Parliament ; one was a bill to enable the company
to make certain new lines of railway and to abandon a por-
tion of the authorised railway, and the other a bill to enable
the company to raise additional capital, to divide their
shares, and to make deviations from their authorised line of
railway. He stated that the share capital authorised to be
raised by the first bill was £lOO,OOO, and in the second bill
£155,000. He then moved formal resolutions approving
the bill, and they were agreed to.

THE PRUSSIANS AT KIEL.—Several German
journals mention that M. Kcenig, architect to the Prussian
Government, has left Berlin for Kiel to prepare the con-
struction of maritime establishments required for the for-
mation of a naval station for Prussia in that port:
FATALLOCOMOTIVE BOILER EXPLOSION.-011Fri-
day afternoon, about 5 37, the locomotive attached
to a passenger train going from Manchester to Bury, on
the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway, exploded soon after
the train had been stopped at Miles Platting Station. The
boiler was rent asunder, and portions of it hurled to a great
distance. Tho driver and stoker escaped, though their
safety is almost miraculous. The former was only slightly
hurt on the back of the head, but the stoker was not at all
injured. In a Meld near this station a boy named Dowling,
the son of a labourer, was playing with sane companions,
and was struck by a large fragment of the boiler on the
forehead, and his brains were scattered about, but the other
children were not hurt.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—
Unerring Precision.—When the health is breaking down
from the continuance of some weakening discharge, when
ulcers refuse to heal, and extending mischief is threatened,
then is the time to try the potency of Holloway's healing
ointment and purifying pills. No treatment for giving
ease, and safely leading to a cure, can be compared to this.
The ointment cleans and cools the foulest and most angry
sores, diminishe the inflammation, reduces the swelling,
prevents the growth of proud flesh, and spares both pain
and danger. Thousands testify, from their own personal
experience, to the unvarying success attending the use of
Holloway's medicaments m cases of ulcerated legs, en-
larged veins, scurfy skin, and swelled ankles.

Death of Charles Waterton, the Naturalist.

Mr. Charles Waterton, or, to use the name by
which he was more familiarly known around the
place where he passed the later years of his life,
Squire Waterton, the noted naturalist and traveller,
died at midnight on Friday last, at his residence,
Walton-hall, near Wakefield. Although he had
reached an advanced age, namely, 83, yet up to
Thursday he was hale and vigorous beyond the com-
mon lot of those of his time of life. On that day he
met with an accident by falling from .a rustic bridge
spanning a small stream which runs into the upper
end of the lake surrounding the hall. Dr. Wright
and Mr. Horsfall were called into him, but the shock
which the system had sustained was too great for
the old squire to rally from. The Reverend Canon
Brown before his death administered to him the last
rites of the Roman Catholic Church, and it is under-
stood the Pope telegraphed his benediction. Mr.
Edmund Waterton, the squire's son, was in Rome
with the Pope when the accident took place. As a
naturalist Mr. Waterton was world renowned.
" Waterton's Wanderings in South America" have
been read, we should think, wherever the English
tongue has penetrated ; and the bold characteristic
deed therein narrated—the riding of a caiman to
death—will at once recur to every mind. One of
squire's well-known traits was never to allow a shot
to be fired on his grounds, except to keep down the
rabbits which infested them. The result has been
that in Walton-park many .a rare bird and animal
has made its haunt in safety, and the curious cir-
cumstance may be therein seen of herons and equally
shy members of the feathered tribe remaining un-
moved at the report of a gun. Walton-hall and
grounds have long been the resort during the sum-
mer months of numerous pleasure parties. The in-
structions which the departed squire left behind him
concerning his funeral are somewhat remarkable.
A mausoleum for the reception of his body had long
been: erected near the top end of the lake. This
sepulchre rests beneath the overhanging shade of
two venerable oak trees. The body is not to be car-
ried to its long home by land, but is to be conveyed
over the lake in a boat, the mourners are to follow
in the wake. The funeral is to take place on Satur-
day ; and if the wishes of the deceased squire are to
be consulted, will be strictly private. The squire
had written his own epitaph. It is in Latin. The
translation runs thus Pray for the soul of
Charles Waterton, born June, 1782, died 18—,
whose wearied bones rest here." The following
brief account of his life is taken from Mr. W. H.
Lcatham's lectures, published in 1845 :—" This
celebrated naturalist was born at Walton-hall, near
Wakefield, in the county of York, about 62 years
ao.o. On his father's side he is descended in a direct
line (through his grandmother) from Sir Thomas
More. On his mother's side he is akin to the Be-
dingfields of Oxbury, to the Charletons of Hazle-
side, and to the Swinburnes of Chapheaton. The
Watertons emigrated into Yorkshire some centuries
ago, from their family seat, bearing their own name,
in the island of Axholm, in Lincolnshire. The
Watertons fought at Cressy and Agincourt and at
Marston Moor. They were preferred in Catholic
times to places of great honour and trust, but since
the Reformation they have experienced opposite
fortune. Walton-hall, the family seat, stands on
an island in a lake. The land rises gently from the
water on all sides and is crowned with fine timber,
the whole park being inclosed by a formidable
stone wall. Charles Waterton received his education
at Stonyhurst, Lancashire, where he remained until
nearly 21 years of age. here he became an elegant
Latin scholar, and renounced for ever the use of
wines and spirituous liquors. His love for natural
history often led him into playing truant, but even-
tually his instructors gave him further liberty to
pursue his favourite study. Soon after leaving
Stonyhurst the young squire made a tour into Spain.
Here he met with many strange adventures—fever,
earthquakes, &c., and was seized with sickness on
his return home. In 1804, he went out to superin-
tend his uncle's estates in Demerara. In 1812, his
father and uncle being dead, he delivered up his
trust, and all subsequent visits which he paid to
South America were undertaken with no other ob-
ject in view than the pursuit of natural history.
" The Wanderings" bear testimony to the wonder-
ful adventures of Mr. Waterton during these visits.
The vivacity with which these narratives abound
render them the most charming productions of the
kind in the English language: In 1829, Mr.
Waterton married a Miss Edmonstone, but
their ',felicity was of short duration--she died
within a year, leaving him a son. He has
since made frequent journeys to Belgium
and Italy. His " Essays on Natural History" have
been collected from Loudon's Magazine, and edited
by himself in a handsome volume, to which he pre-
fixed a most amusing autobiography. This work is
as racy as " The Wanderings," and full of interest-
ing and acute observation. In closing this brief
sketch of Mr. Waterton, we must not omit to men..
tion that he is the first bird-stuffer in the world, and
one of the most kind-hearted landlords, and a zealous
and conscientious Catholic. A highly recommen-
datory feature of his writings is, that they uniformly
enjoin kind treatment of animals, and a generous
sympathy with their persecutions. He has lately
published a second series of essays on Natural
History.
