REVELATION of QUACKS and QUACKERY.
By DETECTOR.

For notices of this startling work see the "Saturday Re-
view" of April 1, entitled "Quacks and Quackery • ' ' the
" Weekly Dispatch" of April 9, " The Quacks and their
Crimes ;" "The Sun" of April 12, "'Detector's' Broadside
on Quacks and Quackery."
GUIDE TO THE QtrACIES 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 ca•tain 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" contemporaries, especially in the
country, may still be enumerated. But now he begs to pub-
lish the information that a nominal list of these udacreants,
with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning
them, needful to be known, will be found in ti e pamphlet
above referred to, which is entitled " Revelations of Quacks
and Quackery," and is to be had at the "Medical Circular"
Office, 20, King William-street, Stand, 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 " Revelations
of Quacks a a Qackery." And mark especially that, as
aforesaid, the names of the Quacks are published. The
pamphlet iu 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 " Revelations of
Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse
you, while they invoke you" indignation and disgust 01
course yout,o not want it on account of its warnings for your
own sake, but you doubtless do for chat 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 be able to answer this question of the
young anti inexperienced, anti, for charity's sake, if for no
other. go .nd provide yourself with "Revelations of Quacks
and Quackery," by Detector.—Punch, April 12.

THE LONDON FINANCIAL ASSOCIATION
(Limited) offer for SALE by Public Tender. £130,00a,
being the whole of the A PRIORITY STOCK of the
KETTERING, THRAPSTON, and HUNTINGDON
RAILWAY, entitled under powers conferred by the said
Company's Acts of Parliament to a Perpetual Dividend of
5 per cent. per annum, payable half-yearly out of the
Profits, in preference to the Ordinary Stock, and ranking
next to the Company's Debentures.

Interest guaranteed by Messrs. Waring for three years,
from Ist July, 1865.
By the following prospectus it will be seen
that the interest on the Debentures is £3,780
And on the A Priority Stock 6,500

Being together £10,280 annually,
and as the line is to be worked by the Midland Company
for seven years at 40 per cent., a gross receipt of £17,200
per annum will be sufficient to pay interest on the A
Priority Stock as well as on the Debentures.
The coal traffic alone is estimated to produce one-third
more than the above amount, independent of the ordinary
sources of traffic. The A Priority stock is therefore most
amply secured, and presents an eligible investment for
trustees and other parties seeking a security paying a fixed
dividend at a good rate.
With the view of removing any doubt as to the dividend,
and in order to give ample time for the development of
the traffic, Messrs. Waring Brothers guarantee for three
years the interest on the said Priority Shares.
Tenders for the whole, or any portion of the above Stock,
will be received at the offices of the Association, South Sea
House, Threadneedle-street, up to Tuesday, 11th July, at
One o'clock, when the tenders will be publicly opened and
the Stock will be allotted to the highest bidders, provided
the prices offered are not below the minimum, which will
be fixed in the usual manner before the Tenders are opened.
In case of equality of Tenders beyond the amount required
a pro rata distribution on such Tenders will be made.
A deposit of £5 per cent. must accompany each Tender.
The balance to be paid on the 18th July, when the Stock
will be placed in the purchaser's name without expense.

g ~
The total share capital is £230,000 ; of this the A Shares
amountin to £l3O 000 are entitled, under powers con-
ferred by the Company's Acts, to a priority in dividend of
after the £5 per cent, in perpetuity, ranking next
deben-
tures, so that they are substantially preference shares.
P
Messrs. Waring Brothers guarantee the interest on the A
Shares for three years from Ist July, 1865. By
the Acts of Parliament the liability of the shareholders is
limited to the amount of their subscription in the usual
manner. The B or deferred shares receive all the surplus
after payment of five per cont. to the Priority Shareholders.
The railway traverses one of the richest agricultural
districts of England, in which also iron-stone and clay of
fine quality have recently been developed. It is to be
worked under Parliamentary sanction by the Midland
Company, who, by agreement with the Great Eastern
Company, have powers of running onwards from Hunting-
don by St. Ives to Cambridge, so that a complete and most
direct connexion will be established between the whole of
the Great Eastern system and the manufacturing and mine-
ral Midland districts, including Derby, Leicester, Birming-
ham, Nottingham, Sheffield, and the Northern manufac-
turing population. A reference to the map will show the
importance of the line as a connecting link between the
centre and the east of England. The Midland Company
are to work and maintain the lino for 40 per cent. of the
gross receipts during seven years, and for 50 per cent. hi
perpetuity thereafter.
The traffic will obviously, therefore, be large. It is be-
lived, indeed, that the transport of coal alone will furnish
a remunerative return upon the capital now offered to
the public. The greater part of that traffic, now going
into the eastern counties by the circuitous route of Peter-
borough, must hereafter go via Huntingdon, as its shortest
and best course. This quantits estimated at 800,000 tons
a year, which, at the rate of 4d. per ton per mile, would
yield £24,375 gross, or £14,62 net after payment of work-
ing expenses. The net return on coal, therefore, after de-
duction of £3,780, the debenture interest, would be £10,845.
To pay the dividend on the Priority Shares only £6,500
(beyond the debenture interest) is required ; so that, unless
the anticipations of those best qualified to judge are greatly
erroneous, there would be from the coal traffic alone a net
surplus of about £4,350 annually beyond the dividend on
the A Priority Shares.
And if the general traffic from passengers, merchaildige,
cattle, and iron ore should realise only a net amount equal
to that derived from the coal, the Company would have a
clear annual income of £29,000 after deducting working
expenses, whilst the first charges for debenture interest and
dividend on these shares would absorb £10,300 only.
In short, a gross traffic of only £l2 15s. per mile per
week (£25 per mile being the minimum anticipated by the
most competent railway authorities) would suffice to pay
debenture interest and a dividend of five per cent. on the
A or Priority Shares, after deducting working expenses at
40 per cont.
