Two men, John Sutton and Joseph Brownrigg, were sentenced at the Central Criminal Court on Tuesday to five years' penal servitude each for advertising a work on hydro-phosphate, professing to supply a cure for all diseases. The advertisements of the work had a number of fictitious extracts from medical journals; and "Phosphate Hall," from which they were dated, turned out to be a third-floor back room in Gray's Inn-road.
