SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS.
1 beg leave to call the attention of the citi
tis ol Pennsylvania to the above article,
manufactured by myself exclusively, at my
i Factory in Schiedam, in Holland, expressly
ft for medicinal purposes.
l\ It is made from the best Barley that can be
It selected in Europe and the essence of an ar
il omatic Italian berry, ol acknowledged and
B extraordinary medicinal properties; and it
has long since acquired a higher reputation,
B ooth in Europe and America, than any other
heveiage.
Gravel, Gout, and Rheumatism; in Ob-
H etructious of the Bladder and Kidney s, and
■ Debility of the Urinary Functions, its. ef
■ feels are prompt, decided, aud invariably re
■ liable. And it is not only a Remedy for these
W maladies, but, in all cases in which they are
produced by Drinking Bad Wafer, 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 ell persons unaccustomed tol'nem
produced by the waters of nearly all our great
inland rivers like the Ohio, Mississippi, and
Alabama, from the large quantity of decay
ed vegetable matter contained in them, in a
slate of solution, is well known ; as is also
that of the waters of limestone regions, in
I producing Gravel, Calculi, and Stone in Ike
bladder. The AROMATIC SCHIEDAM
SCHNAPPS is an absolute cnrreclivo ol all
these injurious properties of bad water, and
consequently prevents the disease which
they occasion. It Is also found to be a cure
and preventive of Fever and Ague, a com
plaint caused by the conjoint effects ol vege
table malaria in the atmosphere, and vegeta
ble putrescenses in the waters of those dis
tricts in which it principally prevails Tho
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 whero it has become known on
account of its various other remedial proper
ties.
More than three thousand physicians,
among whom are numbered the greatest
ttaaies belonging to tho faculty of medicine
in this country, have certified over their own
signatures, to the valuable medicinal proper
ties of kucli an article, as the severest tests
haveproved theScbiedam Aromatic Schnapps
. to be, ar.d have accepted it as a most desira
ble addition to the materia medica.

yj I beg leave to call the attention of the pub-
Tito to the following letters from physicians:
f " Laboratory, N. Y., May 2, 1855.
' " Ma. UPDOI.PIIO WOLFE — Dear Sir: I can
not speak to highly of the purity of your Sclii
qdam Schnapps. It is decidedly superior to
anything of the kind in market. It is per
fectly free from the admixture ot lusit nil,
or of any of those amy 1 c compounds which
produce such a mischievous and irreparable
effect upon the constitution, and which very
few samples of alcoholic distilled liquors are
without —most olthem being largely impreg
nated with it. I have personally inspected
' the various process of distillation practiced
at Schiedam, and know (hat unusual care is
taken to aepara'e the noxious elements
(rem the pure alcohol, and your Schnapps is
a striking proof of its success. As a medici
nal agent for chronic and renal affections, I
have successfully prescribed it, and recom
mend it as an agreeable cordial end harm
less stimulant, and shall continue to do so;
as well as to use it as a source of pure ulco
hol for chemical investigations and experi
ments. Yours obedient, ISAIAH DEC*.
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 catarrhnl complaints, fcc. The
letter is dated July 27, 1853:
"1 take 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 degree of
stimulation, I regard it as one of the most
important remedies in chronic catarrhal af
fections, particularly those of tho genito uri
nary apparatus. With much repsect, your
obedient servant, CHARLES A LEAS.
" PHILADELPHIA, July 15, 1853.
" Mr. Udolpho Wolfe, No, caver st., ft.
Y.— Dear Sir : Last season the Writer received
through your agent in this city, a bottle of
your Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, and since
that period has present, ail tbo eame in certain
forma of urinary complainta, also in cases of
debility in aged persona. So far, the Schn'apia
has been of much benefit to those using it
• * In conclusion, where a diuretic and
stimulant ia required, I should use the Aro
matic Schiedam Schnapps. hanking you for
your kindness, I am respectfully yours,
A. D. CHALONER, M. D,
180 South Eighth st.
Tho subjoined letter Irom Dr PAINE, of
Manchester, N. H., relates to one of tho mo6t
valuable medicinal properties possessed by the
Aromatic Schnapps, and shows that it acts as
a a specific in a very painful disease—the Gruv
olr
Mr. WOLTK . Permit mc to address you
a few line#, which you aro at liberty to uso if
yuu think proper, in respect to your medicine,
called Schiedam Schnapps. I have had a very
onstinate caao of gravel and Btone, of omo five
yeare standing, eauaing very acute pain in
every attempt to urinate, After using many
—medics without much relief, I waa indue id to
' ->f vouf medicine. In tho course

must give it my approbation and signature.

To Ihe. Treasurer and Commission
ers of Columbia County.
GENTLEMEN :—You are doubtless aware,
that the semi annual interest on the funded
debt of the Conimouwealih lulls due on the
FIRST DAY OF AUGUST NEXT. I feel
impelled under a sense of duty to call your
attention to the necessity of prompt and im
mediate action to secure an early payment
ol the taxes due the Slate. The reputation
and honor of the Stale are in a great mea
sure committed to your keeping, it is upon
the tax due from lite oovorol oouniies, that I
reply mainly for the means of making pay
ment. lam aware that the late stringency
in the monetary affairs of the country, has
greatly crippled the Manufacturing and Com
mercial interests of the State, that the gener
al drought and consequent failure of last
year's crops lias deprived the farmer of his
nsual ability to pay, and that owing to these
adverse aircumstances, it will requite on
your part a more than usuul ofiort to collect
piomptly. I know tliut the highest incite
ment to duly '.hat can be placed before the
people of this Commonwealtn, is to assure
them that the honor of the Commonwealth
demands such duty at their hands.
' Which I would hold up this higher motive
to you, antf through yon to the people. I
would also remind jou that by the Act of
Assembly of the 28th day of April, 1844, it
is provided that " any county paying into the
Slate Treasury its quota of lax levied on its
adjusted valuation, filteou days prior to the
first day of August, in any year, such eoutity
shall be entitled to ai übatemont of five per
cent, upon the amount so paid." lum dis
posed to give this law a fair and liberal con
siruclion. Where the whole amount has ■
not been paid, but an amount approaching I
near to Ihe whole, Ihe deduction ol five per
cent, will be made. 1 wouid euggest the '
propriety of allowing the abatement of five '
per cent, by the tax collector immediately to
the tax payer, believing that each a course
incite to a more prompt payment than when
the benefit is made accrue to the County
Treasury. |
You will confer a great favor upon me, by
letting me know at as early a date* as it will
be possible for you to do so, with any rea
sonable degree of certainty, what amount of
money you will be able to furnish, and at
what time, Your- respectfully.
