REVELATION of QUACKS and QUACKERY,
By DETECTOR.

For notices of this starting work see the "Saturday Re
view" of April 1, entitled "Quacks and Quackery ;' the
" Weekly aspatch" of April "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 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 many of Mr." Punch's" contemporai ies, 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 pull's and other particulars concerning
them, n-.edfut to be known, will be found in the pamphl t
above referred to, which is entitled "Revelation of Quacks
and 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 gains of the obscene tribe of
Quacks, the mischief they do, the ruin they work, even to
the causation of suicide, are iully.set forth in " Revelations
of Quacks ai,d Qackery." And mark espec'ally that, as
aforesaid, the names of the Quacks are publishet 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 " h evelations of
Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse
whi e they invoke your indignation and disgust. 01
coarse you do not want it on account of its warnings for your
own sake, but you doubtless do for ghat 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 V.is 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.

"RIDDEN SPRINGS. By the Rev. J.
PARKER, of Manchester.

" The sermons of Dr. Pirker are especal y noticeable for
clearness of thought and language. All seems as if it were
written with a pencil of light. . . . . Nature is every-
where in the ascendant, and hence its matchless force. . . . .
There is no speakin7, for speaking's sake, no display of any
kind ; every word is an arrow directed to the mark."—Bri-
