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 v, "The Quacks and their
Crime;"
"T 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 CU cular," 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 "Punoh," 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 advertisine 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 misereahts.
with copies of their puffs and other particulars concerning
them, needful to be known, will be found in the pamphi- t
above referred to, which is entitled "Revelations of Quacks
and Quackery." and is to be had at the " Medic el Circular "
Office, 20, King William-street, Strand, W.U.
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 and Qackery." And mark espec,ally that, as
aforesaid, the names of the Quacks are published. 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 " Revelations of
Quacks and Quackery." Its contents will astonish and amuse
you, white they invoke your indignation and disgust. 01
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 tile Quacks that 'Punch' means ?"
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.

ABRIDGED PROSPECTUS.
This Company is formed to extend the workings of the
Dalbeattie and Kirkconnell Granite Quarries, near the
rivers Urr and Nith, Kirkcudbright, in order to supply the
great and increasing demand for this stone, consequent upon
the Metropolitan Board of Works having selected it for
the construction of the Thames Embankment.
The vendor holds, and has partly executed, advantageous
contracts to the amount of more than £lOO,OOO, for sup-
plying material to that important national undertaking, as
well as many orders for architectural, memorial, and orna-
mental works, and for street paving and other economical
purposes.
With these contracts, and the rapidly expanding trade
(met by the constantly increasing powers to execute ex-
tensive orders), there is full and immediately profitable
employment for the capital required.
The Directors have taken power to create a Sinking Fund
by an annual investment with the object of securing to the
Shareholders, as far as may be, the value of their paid-up
capital at the expiration of the 31 years leases of the
quarries ; and the vendor has agreed that for a period of two
years the 2,500 Shares, which are to be allotted to him in
part payment of purchase money, shall receive no dividend,
unless the dividends paid to the Ordinary Shareholders
amount to 10 per cent. per annum.
It is not expected that more than £6 per share will be
called up, the Directors considering that that amount will
be ample to support the anticipated extension of the busi-
ness of the Company.
There are no promoters fees, and the preliminary ex-
penses will be restricted to the moderate outlay absolutely
necessary for the formation of the Company. The Memo-
randum and Articles of Association may be seen at the
offices of the Company's Solicitors, and of the Company.

CITY OF LONDON.
Until within the last few days the City Liberal
Registration Association, which usually takes the
initiative at elections in selecting the candidates
likely to enlist the confidence of the party, had not
brought one forward for the seat about to be vacated
by the retirement of Sir J. Duke. When in the autumn
of last year Sir James publicly intimated his inten-
tion of not again presenting himself for re-election
at the close of the present Parliament, Alderman W.
Lawrence, then lord mayor, became a candidate for
the vacant seat in the Liberal interest, and his ad-
dress has been before the constituency for the last
six months; but up.to Friday last his pretensions
had not been recognised by the association, with-
out whose aid the chance of success would be but
doubtful at any time. On that day, however, at a
special meeting of the society, held at the London
Tavern, to decide upon the four candidates who
should be selected to stand for the representation,
Mr. Lawrence's fitness was admitted, and on the
motion of Mr. J. H. Hankey it was resolved, with
but four dissentients— _ _ _

" That Baron Lionel de Rothschild, M.P., Mr. R. W
Crawford, M.P., Mr. Goschen, M.P., and Mr. Alderman
Wm. Lawrence, are fit and proper persons to represent the
City of London in the House of Commons in the ensuing
Parliament, and the electors present pledge themselves to
use their best endeavours to secure their return."
At that meeting, which had been announced to be
private, but the proceedings at which have since been
made public, the chairman, Mr. Kirkman D. Hodg-
son, M. 1?., alluding to Mr. Lyall and Mr. R. N.
Fowler, the two Conservative candidates, and to
their professions of Liberalism, remarked that of
them it might be truly said that " the face was the
face of Jacob, but the hands were the hands of
Esau ;" and he urged upon the Liberals the absolute
necessity of standing shoulder to shoulder in the ap-
proaching contest; for, if they did not, the Conser-
vatives would instantly take advantage of their dis-
union, the only chance which their opponents had
lying in their division. Mr. Hankey, too, who had
moved the resolution referred to, observed that it
was the positive duty of the city of London to show
the rest of the kingdom what its true political spirit
wa.s..Mr. George Moore, of Cheapside, in seconding
the resolution, took occasion to refer to theill-health
of Baron Rothschild, but surely, he said, no one
would be ungenerous enough to blame a man for hav-
ing been afflicted by Providence ? When Baron
Rothschild was in full health he was always at their
call, and endeavoured to do his duty to the best
of his ability. Mr. Moore spoke in praise of the ser-
vices which Mr. Crawford had rendered the consti-
tuency, and of the extraordinary promise shown by
Mr. Goschen as a statesman. Adverting to Mr. Law-
rence, he said he was of opinion that the Corporation
ought to share in the representation of the city. He
thought, therefore, they ought to include the alder-
man among the candidates, and with those four he
considered they would have a pretty strong team,
especially in comparison with that of their oppo-
nents. Mr. Bennett, on the other hand, said if Mr.
Lawrence stood he would vote for him, but he was
afraid he was not big enough to fight the two Tories;
and if they thought they could not carry his election,
then be was the wrong man. Mr. Alderman Phillips,
who was among the speakers, observed that much
stress had been laid upon the indisposition of Baron
Rothschild ; but he was sure the Baron would act
according to the wishes and feelings of the consti-
tuency, and if, through any unhappy accident, he
should not be able to f alfil his duties properly, he
would do that which every high-minded gentleman
would do—withdraw from the representation. But
he had no hesitation in saying that his health was
materially improved, and he hoped and believed
that if they were united for the purposes of this elec-
tion they would soon see the Baron in his place in
the House of Commons. Mr. Alderman Lawrence
explained his views at some length to the meeting,
and the grounds on which he sought to take part in
the representation. Mr. Nathaniel Rothschild re-
gretted that his father could not be present, owing
to indisposition. He was sure they could not find
fault with his political opinions, and her was in great
hopes that his health would so improve that he would
be able properly to discharge his duties. Although
he was not speaking with his father's authority, he
was sure that if he continued too unwell he would
do that which they had a right to expect.
On the motion of Mr. Crawford, M.P., seconded
by Mr. Goschen, M.P., Mr. K. Hodgson, M.P., was
appointed chairman of the Liberal Electors' Com-
mittee; and Mr. J. Dillon, Mr. H. R. Grenfell, M.P.,
Mr. 3. P. Gassiot, Mr. John A. Hankey, and Mr.
George Moore were nominated deputy-chairmen.
It is said that there will be a personal canvass of
the constituency by both Liberals and Conserva-
tives. The number of electors on the register is
17,455, of whom 5,535 are liverymen, making to-
gether 22,990, but from these about 2,000 must be
deducted in respect of double entries. The Liberal
party have opened committee-rooms in Cheapside ;
the head-quarters of the Conservatives are at the
London Tavern.
Last night a public meeting was held of the elec-
tors of the City of London at Stapleton's Horse Re-
pository. Mr. Charles Gilpin, M.P., occupied the
chair. The meeting was very numerously attended.
Mr. CHARLRS GILPIN introduced the business of
the meeting, and concluded by calling upon.
Mr. CRAWFORD, M.P., who said that for any ex-
pression of his political views he must refer the elec-
tors to his published address, which he hoped they
had done him the honour of reading. He had had
the honour of addressing the electors of the Ward of
Bishopsgate upon very many occasions. He remem-
bered the time when they used to meet at the White
Hart, but it seemed that-modern improvements re-
moved the old landmarks, and left them no place of
rest. He hoped the electors would afford no resting
place to the advocates of the Tory party. He was
there, not to advocate his own claims to their support,
but the claims of the Liberals ; to advocate a union,
and to ask the electors not to run the risk of allow-
ing a Conservative to slip in through indecision and
disunion in their own ranks.
Mr. N. M. RomscifiLD next addressed the meet-
ing in support of the claims of his father, who was
unable to be present. He disclaimed any wish or in-
tention on his part of dividing the Liberal interest.
Mr. GOSCIIEN, M.P., followed. He observed that
it was but two years ago since he asked the electors
to return him to Parliament. They did so; and he
had done his bestto promote the interests of the elec-
tors, which were bound up with the Liberal party.

He thought there should be no disguising a man's
opinions ; he had spoken his own fairly out upon all
occasions necessary. He was certain that if any
disunion arose in the Liberal ranks it would be
through men disguising their real sentiments. Mr.
Lyall had issued two addresses, and the speaker de-
fied any one from a perusal of those to say whether
Mr. Lyall was a Liberal or a Conservative. Was
he, then, ashamed of his party ? (No ! Yes Con-
fusion.) • He contended that through the measures
passed by the Liberal party the country had been
rendered happy and prosperous, which would not
have been the case had the Conservatives been in
power. He did not deny that changes were neces-
sary, but thought those changes could be better
effected by the Liberal party than any other.
(Cheers and groans.)
Alderman LAWRENCE next addressed the meeting
at some length. He considered the question at
issue a simple one. It was whether the men of
Bishopsgate would do again as they had done be-
fore—that was, throw their whole weight into the
scale to secure the triumph of Liberal principles.
He had no doubt as to the result of the contest. He
considered that some large, comprehensive, and well
considered measure of reform was imperatively ne-
cessary. He belonged to a party which expunged
from its political dictionary the word " finality,"
and believed that as education, commerce, and other
moral influences bearing upon the nation advanced,
its representation should progress in a like ratio.

Mr. K. Hodgson moved, and Mr. J. Richardson
seconded, a resolution pledging the meeting to sup-
port the four candidates who had just addressed
them, which, upon being put to a show of hands,
was carried.
