    A KNOW NOTHING'S OPINION or JIFFER
SON—The Louisville Cornier (Know-Nothing
organ) has an article professing no disap
pointment in the result of the election in
Virginia, and stuting that "Jefferson too
thoroughly indoctrinated her with his radi
cally heretical doctrines of government."
Gov. Ci-xriK, of New York, has pardoned
a man named Higgins from the penitentiary
of Rochester on condition that he shall
" wholly abstain from using intoxicating li
quors except in case of sickness, when pre
scribed by a regular practising physician."
HYDROPHOBIA— -Mr. Youatt, the celebra
ted cattle dealer, has cured more than 400

ate of silver, which in every instance, pre
vented any symptoms of hydrophobia.

per is unknown in England, and that in those
of a religious kind, religion must be subor
dinate, and secularity reign supreme.
Wisconsin. —The best portion of this State,
it is said, remains unsettled. The timbered
regions contain the best land, are best wa
tered, are most healthy, and in a few years
will lar outstrip tho praries and openings in
wealth ami population.
Small Change. —lt is stated that the U. S.
Treasury is now burlhened with the custody

PERIIAM'S GIFT ENTERPRISE. —The Com
mittee appointed by the shateholders in this
affair, to distribute the 100.000 Gilts amongst
the ticket holders, have deferred the distri
bution until the sih of July, on account ol
there remaining unsold some few thousands
of tickets. Mr. Perlmm, ever anxious to
meet the views of Iris patrons, offers extraor
dinary inducements to Agents to engage in
the sale of the remaining tickets, so that
there ntay be no more delays, which are un
questionably as vexatious to him as to those
who have purchased tickets in his enter
prise. We commend the reading ol his ad
vertisement to our patrons, and hope that
each and all will lend a helping hand to
bring the rrinlter to an early and satisfactory
consummation.
TO THE CITIZENS OF PENNSYLVANIA.
St'IHEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS.
1 beg leave to call the attention of the citi
zens o! Pennsylvania to tho above article,
manufactured by myself exclusively, at my
Factory in Schiedam, in Holland, expressly
for medicinal purposes.
It is made from the best Barley that can be
sejected in Europe and the essence of an ar
omatic Italian berry, of acknowledged and
extraordinary medicinal properties; and it
has long since acquired a higher reputation,
ooth in Europe and America, than any other
dieliu bevetage.
In Gravel, Gout, and Rheumatism; in Ob
structions of the Bladder nod Kidneys, and
Debility of the Urinary Functions, its. ef
fects are prompt, decided, and invariably re
liable. And it is not only a Remedy for these
maladies, but, in all cases in which they are
produced by Drinking Bad Water, which is,
almost universally, the cause of them, it op
erates as a Sure Preventive.
The distressing effect upon the Stomach,
Bowels, and Bladder, to travelers, new resi
dents, and all persons unaccustomed totiiem
produced by (he waters of nearly all our great
inland rivers like the Ohio, Mississippi, and
Alabama, from the large quantity of decay. |
ed \ egetable matter contained in them, in a I
slate ol solution, is well known : as is also j
that of the wuiers of limestone regions, in
producing Gravel, Calculi, and Stone in the
Bladder. The AROMATIC SCHIEDAM
SCHNAPPS is an absolute corrective ol all
these injurious properties of bad tva'er and
consequently prevents the disease which
they occasion. It is also tound lo be a cure
and preventive of Fever and Ague, a com- j
plaint caused by the conjoint effects of vege
table malaria in the atmosphere, and vegeta- i
ble putrescenses in the waters of those dis
tricts in which it principally prevail* The
Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps is consequent
ly in great demand by persons travelling, or
about to settle in those parts of the country
especially; as well as by many in every
community where it has become known on
account of its various other remedial proper
lies.
More than three thousand physicians. !
i amotig whom are numbered the greatest
names belonging to the faculty of medicine
in this country, have certified, over their own
signatures, to the valuable medicinal proper
ties of such an article, as the severest tests
huveproved the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps
to be, and have accepted it as a roost desira
ble uddiiiou lo the materia mcdica.

in yellow paper with my name on the bot

1 beg leas e to call the attention of the pub
lic to the following letters from physicians:
"Laboratory, N. Y., May 2, 1855.
"MR. UPDOLPHO WOLFE— Dear Sir: lean
not speak to highly ol the purity of your Schi
edam Schnapps. It is decidedly superior to
anything of the kind in market. It is per
fectly fieo fiom lite admixture ol fusil oil,
or o! any of those arnjl e compounds which
produce such a mischievous and irreparable
effect upon tint constitution, anil which very
few samples of alcoholic distilled liquors are
without —most ol them being largely impreg
nated with it. 1 have personally inspected
the various piocess of distillation practiced
at Schiedam, and know that unusual care is
taken lo separate the noxious elements
Ircm l tie pure alcohol, and your Schnapps is
a striking proof of its success. As a medici
nal agent for chronic and renal affections, 1
have successfully prescribed it, and recom
mend it as an agreeable cordial and harm
less stimulant, ami shall continue to do so :
as well as to use it as a source of pure alco
i hoi for chemical investigations and experi
ments. Yours obedient, ISAIAH DECK.
Consulting Analytical Chemist."
Dr. Charles A. Leas, Commissioner of
Health, Baltimore, writes as follows in rela
tion to the value of Schnapps as a remedy
in chronic catarrhal complaints, fee. The
letter is dated July 27, 1853:
"I.lake great pleasure in bearing highly
creditable testimony to its efficacy as a rem
edial agent in the diseases for which you rec
ommend it. Having a natural tendency to
the mocous surfaces, with a slight dcree of
stimulation, I regard it as one of the" most
important remedies in chronic catarrhal af
fections, particularly Lioso of the gettito uri
nary apparatus. Willi much repsecl, your
obedient servant, CIIABI.ES A. LEAS.

through your agent in this cilj, s botffo 0 f
your Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, and since
lliut period has prescribed tho tumo in certain
forms of urinary complaints, also in cases of
debility in aged persons. So faq the Schnapr s
fans been of much benefit to those using it
• * In conclusion, where a diuretic and
stimulant is required, 1 should nso the Aro
matic Schiedam Schnapps. Thanking you for
your kiuduess, 1 am respectfully yours

Tho subjoined letter from Dr PAINE, of
Manchester, N. 11., relates to ono of the most
valuable medicinal properties possessed by the
Aromatic Schnapps, and shows that it acta as
a suecifi: in a very painful disease—the Gruv
" Mr. WOLYK Permit me to address you
a few lines, which you are at liberty to uso if
you think proper, in respect lo your medicine,
colled Schiedam Schnapps. 1 have had a very
oustinate case of grovel ond stone, of some five
years standing, causing very acute pain in
eveiy attempt to urinate, After using many
remedies without much relief, I was induced to
try a bottle of your medicine. In tho course
of threco days it proved effectual, dislodging
large pieces of stone, some of which were us
lurge as a marrowfat pes. I contiuued the cor
dial, according to diicctions, and the patient
continued to gain, and is fast recovering, I
think a medicine of so-much value in so dis- ■
Irtssing a complaint, should be know,-, lo tho
public, and the world at large. And i, for ono
must give it my approbation and signature.

At a meeting of the Committee of Share

the Academy llall, Broadway, on Wednes
day Evening, April 18ih, 1855, tire follow
ing preamble and resolutions were adopted
and ordered to be published :
Whereas, in view of the fact that several
enterprises have been started and carried on
with a seeming positive purpose of defraud
ing those who could be persuaded to par
chase tickets therein; and such fraudulent
proceedings have exerted nn injurious influ
ence in the sale of tickets in the enterpiise
of Mr. Durham: and whereas, it is deemed
essential that all the tickets should bo dispo
sed ol before the distribution takes place, be
it therefore
Resolved, That in order to allow time for
that purpose, the distribution be postponed
until the sdi ot July, at such place as may
hereafter be determined on.
Resolved, That the committee have undi
minished confidence in the integrity of Mr.
Perham, and in tiis disposition to conform
