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.

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.

D. CHALONER, M. D, 180 South Eighth st. Tho subjoined letter Irom Dr PAINE, of Manchester, N.

Bloomsburg, May 16lh 1854-3 m. I fpREASURY OFFICE, j 1 HAURISBURG, Maj 19 1855. j 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.
