TO TUB CITIZKNS OF PENNSYLVANIA. SCIIIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS. r I beg leave to oall the attention of tha citi zens ol Pennsylvania to tho above article, manufactured by myself exclusively, at my Factory In Schiedam, In Holland, expressly for medicinal purposes. It is mado from the host Barley that can be selected in Ettropo and the essence of an ar omatic ltaliau.borry, of acknowledged and extraordinary medicinal nronerties; and it hae long since acquired a higher reputation, ooth in Europe and America, than any other fftelio bavetage. lu Gravel, Gout, and Rheumatism; in Ob structions of the Bladder mid Kidneys, and Debility of the Urinary Functions, its. ef fects afe prompt, deckled, 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 Wn'er, which is, almost universally, the causo of them, it op erates as a Sure Preventive. The distressing effect upon tho Stomach, Bowels, and Bladder, to travelers, new resi dents, and all persons unaccustomed to them produced by the waters of nearly all our great inland rivers like the Ohio, Mississippi, and Alabama, from tho largo quantity of decay ed regntable matter contained in them, in a elate of solution, is well known ; as is also that of tho waters of limestone) regions, in Droducing Gravel, Calculi, ami Stone in the Bladder. Tho AROMATIC SCIIIEDAM SCHNAPPS is an absolute corrective of all theee injurious properties of bad water, and consequently prevents tho disease which they occasion. It is also found to be a cure anil preventive of Fever and Ague, a com plaint caused by the conjoin: effects ol vege table malaria in the atmosphere, and vegeta ble pulrescenses in the waters of thoso dis tricts in which it principally prevails. The Aromatio Schiedam Schnapps is consequent ly in great demand by persons travelling, or about to settle in those parts of the country especially ; as welt as by many in every community where it has become known on account of its various blhor remedial proper ties. More ihan threo thousand physicians, among whom are numbered tho greatest names belonging to tho faculty of medicine in this country, have certified, over iheirown signatures, to the valuablo medicinal proper ties of such an article, as tho severest tests have proved the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps to be, and have accepted it as a most desira blajgddition to the materia medica.

Which I would hold up this higher motive lo ymt, ami through yon to tho people. I would also remind you I hat by tho Act ol j Assembly of the 28th day of April, 1811, il I is provided that " any county paying into the Siato Treasury its quota of lux levied on iis ■ adjusted valuation, filteou days prior to the j first day of August, in any year, such county shall bo entitled to an abatement of livo per cent, upon the amount so paid." lam die- | posed to'givo this law a fair and liberal con- < struclion. Whero the whole amount has , not been paid, but an amount approaching near to lho whole, the deduction of fivo per cent, will bo ntudo. I wouid suggest the propriety of allowing the abatement of five percent, by lire tax collector immediately lo the tax payer, believing that such a course incite to a more prompt payment than when the benefit is mado accrue to the County Treasury. You will confer a great favor upon me, by | lotting me know at as early a date as it will I be po.-siblo for you to do so, with any rea- | sor.able degree of certainty, what amount of money yon will be able to furnish, and at what time, Yours respectfully.
