THE MORNING NEWS AT TWENTY-
FIVE CENTS PER WEEK.
We hayo recently systematized and brought into
operation the old plan of weekly subscriptions to the
Daily Moeniso News, and within the past few weeks
our circulation, under this plan, has largely increased.
We desire to place the HoBsrae News in the hands of
every Mechanic, every laboring man, and every per
son of intelligence ; and knowing that there are many
who cannot afford to pay five or ten dollars right out
of pocket for a six month’s or a year’s subscription,
who would not feel the expenditure of twenty-five
cents per week, for a daily newspaper, we have insti
tuted the plan, and engaged Mr. H. C. Merritt to at
tend to that particular business. Persons in any part
of the city who desire to take the Mobninq News, at
' wenty-five cents per week oan give "their names to
him. or by leaving them at the office, they will beat-
tended to. - Collections will be made every Saturday.
THE AMERICAN BASTILE.
"We have published a brief announcement
of the destruction by fire of Port Lafayette, in
New York harbor, known during the war as
the American Bastile. The destruction of the
. old fortress has been made a theme of com-
"meat by the Northern Democratic press,
some of whom, in their allusions to the po
litical purposes ip which it was put by the
Badical party during the war, and the crimes
against American liberty and civilization that
were perpetrated within" its walls, have in
vested it with an infamy scarcely less hateful
and revolting than that which is associated
with the recollections of the Dungeons of
Chillon, the Castle Blackness of Scotland, or
the old Bastile of Palis.
The Bridgeport Farmer has an article on
the subject in which it relates an interesting
historical fact," explanatory of the manner in
which the fortress came to bear the name of
Lafayette, which we have never seen stated
before. It seems that the fort which occu
pied a small reef about 300 yards from the
shore on the Long Island side of the Bay,
surrounded, at low tide, by about six feet of
water, was originally called Fort Diamond.
The name was changed to that of Fort Lafay
ette in 1824, in honor of General Lafayette,
who was then on a visit to this country.
The old bastile in Paris, says the Firmer,
from its having been used as a dungeon for
political prisoners, became an object of in
tense hatred by the people of that city, and
during a paroxysm of popular rage on the
14th of July, 1789, it was demolished under
orders given by Lafayette. Its destruction
was a matter of great rejoicing among the
Mends of Republican Government in France,
and among those who sympathised with them
in this country. Pictures of the infamous
old fortress, after its destruction, were taken
and widely distributed as a memorial of the
triumph of free principles. One of these
was presented by Lafayette to Gen. Wash
ington, together with a key to one of the
doors of the hated establishment, accom
panied by the following expressions:
“Permit me, my dear General, to offer you
a picture representing the Bastile, such as it
was some days after I had. given orders for
its demolition, I, make yon homage also,
of the principal key of this fortress of des
potism.”
When making this presentation, how little
did the gentleman think that, in the land of
"Washington, a day would eyer.come, when a
fortress bearing his honored name, wonld be
used in like manner," for the same base pur
poses, and by men professing to be the
champions of freedom, liberty, equality, fra
ternity.
.B.sit. mich has been the fact. Daring this
nineteenth century, in this .boasted land. of
liberty, this fortress, built for the defence of
a free city, and bearing the name of this hon
ored defender of free principles, was used,
.four years, for the imprisonment'of "men be
cause their political 'opinions did - not co
incide with those of.the men who were in
power. Indeed, daring one of these four
years, so numerous were the arrests on this
account, that the room in the fortress was
insufficient for the safe-keeping of all who
were sent there for confinement, andnnmbers
had to be transferred to other forts. Since
then, "its name, and the names of those of
ficials who prostituted the fortress to this
base purpose, have been accused. So will
they ever be. All the waters of the ocean
can never wash the foul stain , from their es
cutcheons. We hope pictures of this “for
tress of despotism” are in existence, and that
they will be transmitted to posterity with the
history of the proscriptions and persecutions
for opinion’s sake, in which it was made to
hear so large a port.
Gen. Gbant on his Tbaveis.—The Bridge
port (Conn.) Farmer thus sketches General
Grant’s visit to Massachusetts :
Gen. Grant arrived in Boston -yesterday
morning, at the usual hour of the night train,
and took quarters at the St James Hotel. He
passed through this city in the half-past ten
train, without the knowledge or notice of any
of our citizens. The papers state that herode
in the smoking car from New York to Stam
ford, and in the mail car from Stamford to
Bridgeport Here he took the sleeping car.
.'At New Haven an expectant crowd of “Bum
mers,” to the number of one hundred or
more, was in waiting at the depot for him—
but he made no response to their calls, and
they" trudged home without the satisfaction of.
having got a peep at the lion. Yesterday he
dined with David Seara, one of the nabobs
of Boston, and Elector at large, and to-day
•heis in the bands of the millionares of Low
ell, for the purpose of being shown through,
their factories.
New England seems to have the President
elect, all to herself. Her people - are civil
-enough to make good use of him.
Badicausm in Washington city seems to be
only another name for rascality Bribery
and corruption, picking and stealing, seems
to be the order of the day, and so thoroughly
are all classes indoctrinated with the cardinal
’ principles of the Government, that the Pres
ident con neither repose confidence in the
high officials who manage Alaska purchases,.
and the collection of the whiskey tax, nor in
the clerks who convey the manuscript copy
of jus message to the printer. A Washington
paper says that copies of both the President’s
message and the report of the Secretary of
-the Treasury have been stolen, in spite of the
utmost precaution, and the main points in
both documents are in the hands of specula
tors in New York, who doubtless paid liberal
rewards to the thieves employed by the Ex
ecutive and Mr. McCulloch-
' Continuance of Mxlttaey Rule.—The New
York Times, classed as a conservative Radi
cal organ," and the sincerest supporter of Gen.
Gbant, endorses the movement to increase
the military force in the South, as follows:
The policy of Congress may be a pretext
Tor murder and robbery, but it is not the
cause. These erimee spring from the remain
ing force of the rebellion, and the Govern
ment will not complete its duty until it shall
have crushed them out of existence. Till
this be done, it were futile to attempt any
diminution of the military force at present
available in the South.
REPUBLICANISM IN SPAIN.
The programme of the. Spanish Govern
ment in favor of monarchy, it is said, was
prepared by Olozaga, the oldest and most de
cided Liberal in the country, who has spent
the greater part of his life in exile. The
difficulty in getting a suitable' man for King
is a great embarrassment, and gijfes many
advantages to the small Republican party.
This party is growing in audacity, if not in
numbers. It has a great orator in M. Cas-
telab, and a very enterprising General in M.
Escalante, who commands the militia .of
Madrid, refuses to take orders from Peim,
and pays no attention to his letters. He
drills his. militia while Pbim reviews the
" - ■ • . C._
army, ana here may be the germ of civil war.
The rumor that Pbim will declare himself
Dictator may be verified by the force of cir
cumstances. He may not desire that result;
and yet, as a patriot, to save his country
from anarchy, he may be constrained into
the position. For him, a new man to be
come Emperor is nothing Out of the way.
Belgium, Portugal, Sweden and France are
all ruled by new men, and why not Spain in
the person of Pbim, who stands as fair as any
of them ?
Fobney thinks that “but for the American
civil war, to-day Spain would be a Republic.
Now,” he thinks “it is not improbable that a
Dictator will ascend the throne.” Certainly
if the people of the United States, after a
test of nearly a century have demonstrated
the worthlessness and unreliability of written
Constitutions—if the American people, after
all their boasting, have proved to the world
the incapacity of man for self-government—
certainly such an example must be dicourag-
ing to the Republicans of Spain. What bet
ter evidence do the people of the Old World
need of the Worthlessness of Republican in
stitutions than is afforded by the Badical
party and press of this country ? Have they
not proven to the world that under the in
fluence of a Republican form of government
the people of thirteen Southern States have
relapsed into barbarism—that they were so
depraved and besotted as to rebel against
“the best Government the world ever saw”—
that they, the white men of the South, have
become utterly unfit to exercise the rights
and franchises of freemen—and that in order
to govern them and keep them within the
pale of civilization it has become necessary to
set aside the Constitution and laws, and to
establish over them a Negro-Carpet-bag dy
nasty supported by the bayonet ? The friends
of civil liberty and good government in Spain,
if they do not discredit the assertions of the
Radical party in this country, can certainly
feel no very particular desire to make the ex
periment of a Republic in the face of such an
example.
For once we give credit to Fobney for utter
ing a truth. His party, in trampling the Con
stitution of the Republic under foot, and es
tablishing military despotism ovei more than
one half the original States of the American
Union, have struck a damaging if not a
fatal blow to Republicanism throughout the
world.
A Conversation with Senatob Cameron.—
In a conversation recently Senator Camebon,
of Pennsylvania, told the Washington corres
pondent of the New York Herald that firm
ness in the administration of the laws will
restore tranquility, and that firmness is what
the country obtains in General Gbant. The
night before the vote was taken on impeach
ment, he said General Gbant visited Ben.
Wade, to urge on him the restoration of Gen.
Shebidan to his command in Louisiana as
soon as he (Wade) became President. Sut
ler, he said, came near being the present
President. Lincoln wanted him to run on
the ticket in 1864 for Vice President, but Gen.
Butler then thought the Vice Presidency an
exceptionable place.
. Suppeb to the Boys inBl&e.—The citizens
of Augusta, desiring to express their appre
ciation of the orderly and soldierlike con
duct of the soldiers of General Sweeney’s
command, now on duty in that city, gave
them a complimentary supper at the City
Hall on Saturday evening. Several promi
nent citizens attended the supper, which
went off greatly to the satisfaction of all
parties. The company officers publish a card
in the Constitutionalist, returning their thanks
for the compliment. The officers and soldiers
of General Sweeney’s command while here
won the respect of our citizens by their or
derly deportment and faithful discharge of
duty.
Conscience Fund.—The conscience busi-‘
ness is beginning to afford a nice little reve
nue to the United States Government It
appears that the anonymous receipts of
“ conscience money” at the Treasury, from
November, 1863, to July 1st, 1867, were $47,-
600; and during the fiscal year ending June
30th, 1868, they amounted to $49,000. If
the one-hundredth part of the money out of
which the Government has been swindled
since it was established were restored as
“ conscience money,” there would be a hand
some redaction of the national debt.
A dispatch to the New York Tribune says:
“A member of Congress, who is already con
spicuous for the part which he has taken in
the investigations of frauds, is here collect
ing data for a resolution that he will intro
duce in the House early in the session, call-,
ing for a committee to examine and report
on the alleged corrupt use of the money in
the Alaska purchase. • He says that, in his
opinion, a very large sum of money was used
in the lobby at the time the bill for the appro
priation of the money to pay for the new
Territory was pending in Congress.
P * ♦- 4 ~i
Stewart’s New Store.—The new addition
to A. T. Stewart’s dry goods store, was
thrown open to the public on Monday. The
building is about 200 by 300 feet, and is said
to be the largest establishment of the kind
in the world. The New York Sun says:
There are upwards of 2,000 people em
ployed in crrrying it on. Last winter there
were 1,400 sewing girls on the books, and
there are at least 500 legitimate salesmen in
these “18 acres of dry goods.” The amount
of business done in the wholesale and retail
departments varies, pf course, with the gen
eral prosperity. Last year, however, was a
specially good one in the sides of this house,
and amounted to $54,000,000.
Tee Last op Bullock’s Outrages.—Bul
lock’s organ makes the following announce
ment:
Colonel John A. Wimpy has received a cer
tificate of election to the Fortieth Congress,
and has, gone to Washington to take his seat
as V member of the House' of Representa
tives.
Colonel Christy was elected by the people
to Congress.
It is said that one of the first acts of the
Committee of Ways and Means, at the open
ing of Congress, will be to fix up a new tax
list' The Radicals repealed a portion of the
old one for political purposes, and after in
creasing the debt some eight or ten xnillions,
now have to add to the weight, of the burden
which is crushing the business.of the land.
Augusta Municipal Officers.—The City
Council of Augusta at their first meeting on
Saturday night, appointed Mr. J. A. Chris
tian, Chief of Police, and Mr. L. T. Blome,
local editor of the Chronicle. Clerk of Coun
cil. Both gentlemen were former incumbents
and popular officers.

Court, referring to me as Register In Bankruptcy the
“Messenger’s Bill of Costs/* in the above stated matter,
to look into and report upon the correctness thereof,

the Bankrupt Act as has reference thereto, and do
hnmbly submit the following report:

- • $54 36
I find that the first, third and fourth items are au
thorized by the forty-seventh section of the Bankrupt
Act. . - —
Item 2.—This charge is for the travel of the Messen
ger from Savannah to Albany and back again, made
for the purpose of making his return of the warrant
and his doings thereon, before the Register presiding
at the first meeting of creditors held at Albany ^pur
suance of the notices published by the authority of the
said warrant. The Messenger claims that it is author
ized by the words in the forty-seventh section, “For
all necessary travel at the rate of five cents a mile
each way."
L Is this necessary travel?
II. If the travel is necessary 1b the charge for it cor
rect?
First.—Section twelve of the Bankrupt Act (General
Clause 37, Rice Manual) provides, that at the meeting
held in pursuance of the notice one of the Registers of
the Court shall preside, and the Messenger shall make
return of the warrant and of his doings .thereon. The
warrant addressed to the Marshal closes with the words
“And have you then and there this warrant with your
doings thereon.’*
From this it is plain that the travel to the place of
the meeting for the purpose of returning the warrant
is necessary.
As the Register who presided over this meeting
lives at Savannah, and haa hi# principal office there,
and went from there to hold this Court at Albany ; the
necessity for this travel perhaps, might havts been ob
viated by a change in the mandate for return, making
the warrant returnable before the Register at Savan
nah. This however was not done, and I decide that
the travel was necessary.
Second*—The travel being necessary is the charge
for mileage correct ?
By section forty-seven of the Bankrupt Act the Mes
senger is allowed : “For all necessary, travel at the
rate of five cents a mile each way;” and this, were-
there nothing farther upon this subject,would be con
clusive, and I should decide the charge to be correct;
but I find by the same section that the Justices of the
Supreme Court ot the United States are authorized to
prescribe additional fees, or to reduce those fees pre
scribed in this section.
Have they by virtue of this authority passed any
rule or order affecting this lee of mileage ? After a
careful examination of this subject I can come to no
other conclusion than that “Rule Xil, General Orders
in Bankruptcy** was passed to affect this fee. Tiie
rule provides first for the payment of the Register's
traveling and incidental expenses and those of any
clerk or other officer attending him in the performance
of his duties in any case or number of cases which
may be referred to him; second, it provides that the
Marshal shall make return of his actual and necessary
expenses in the service of every warrant addressed to
him, and for custody of property, publication of no
tices and other services and other actual and neces
sary expenses paid by him.
The Act did not provide for the payment of the Reg
ister expenses in attending a Court of Bankruptcy;
this rule does, and also provides for the expenses of a
clerk or messenger, who may attend him at the Court.
The Act did provide mileage lor the necessary travel
of the Messenger in the service of a warrant. This
rule changed or reduced it to “actual and necessary
expenses in the service of every warrant addressed to
him.”
The Act provided his actual and necessary expenses
for custody of property, publication.'of notices and
other services. Rule XII added to these the service of
warrant, giving him instead of mileage his actual and
necessary expenses therefor.
If the expenses of the Messenger, who attends with
the Register at the several places of holding Courts in
this District, and at those Courts returns the several
warrants returnable at each are not provided for under
the first clause of Rule XU are they not under the
words “aciual and necessary expenses in the service
of every warrant in the second paragraph? I am not
at liberty to conclude that the Justices of the Supreme
Court by this rule only intended to provide lor the
manner of the Messenger’s return of his expenses tor
services as provided in Paragraph 4th, Section 48, and
that, the addition of the words “8ervice of Warrant,”
not found in that paragraph was an oversight. Nor
am I at liberty to question their authority for substi
tuting actual and necessary expenses for the service
of a warrant in place of mileage for .necessary travel.
If I were I might have trouble in harmonising this
rule and section forty-seven, which authorizes the jus
tices to make this change, with section 10, which en
acts that “they shall frame General Orders.** * * *
* * * * “For regulating the fees payable and the
charges and costs to be allowed except such as are es
tablished by this act or by law."
I can come to no other conclusion than this, that the
Justices of the Supreme Court decided, that the forty-
seventh section of tne Act gave them the authority to
make Rule XU, General Orders and* Forms, and that
they intended by it that the messenger’s expenses in
the service of every warrant should be in lieu of the
mileage granted to him by theAci. There were sev
eral warrants returned at this Court and at other
Courts held in that vicinity about the same time. It
is my construction of this rule, that where expenses
are incurred in several cases, as in traveling to hold a
Court or to make return of a number of warrants, the
Register or Messenger should equitably apportion the
expenses amOng the several cases for which he incur
red them.
Item 6.—Preparing twenty-seven notices, 118 folios
at 10c., $11 80,1 find no authority for in the Bankrupt
Act. I believe that it is claimed under the Act of Con
gress of February 26th, 1853, providing fees for Mar
shals and other officers.
I do not sustain this claim. The Fee Bill of 1853
provided certain fees for the services of a United
States Marshal. The services rendered in this Court
are by a Messenger. The Act establishing the office
:d duties of Messenger has designated the fees apper
taining to the office, and I do not think that the Mes
senger can claim for services rendered under the
Bankrupt Act fees whichVare not designated, in the
Act. The Clerk may, for the Act so provides, vide
Section 47 B. A, but no other officer of this Court can
legally do so. The following language found in the
same Section of the Act ia plain and decisive upon this
point: “The assignee shall pay out of the estate to the
Messenger the following fees and no more."
The United States District Q>urt of Kentucky “In
the matter of John W. Dean, a Bankrupt,” has decided
that this charge is not sanctioned by the “Fee Bill Act
of 1863,” and refused to allow it: vid. The Bankrupt
Register, page 28.
I might add that as the number of creditors in
creases the number of notices and folios also increase,
so that in some cases in this Court the fee for printing
these notices by this system of geometrical progres
sion reaches above two hundred dollars. It cannot
have been intended by the framers of this Act that, a
Bankrupt must pay for.the notices sent to his creditors
so large a fee as this. In the language of a member of
Congress who opposed this Act prior to its amend
ment. “It wonld cost a man more to take the benefit
of it than to pay his debts.” It would defeat the end
and aim of the law, the poor will oe unable to get rid
of the burden of debt.
I am not able to understand for what service the al
lowance of ten cents for each written note to creditor
is intended, if there is a charge for preparing notices
and also one for stamps and envelopes for sending the
notices. - .
It is true that this allowance of ten cents for each
written note to creditor is inadequate for the service
of preparing these notices. And it was with a view
doubtless to remedy this defect in- the Act that Buie
XI of this Court was passed. I know no reason why
whatever the Messenger may pay out to the printer for
printing these notices may not be justly allowed to
him under the head of expenses for “other services”
provided for in Rule XU.
I desire to call the attention of the Court ti the par
agraph in the forty-seventh section of the Act that “for
cause shown and upon hearing thereon such further
allowance may be made as the Court in its discretion
may determine,” so that this Court ia at liberty when
ever it shall decide that the Messenger is not properly
remunerated for his services to allow hirm additional
pay in any case.
Items G, 7,8 and 9 are for expenses incurred and are
correct
Item 10, “For attendance, $1 50,1 find no authority
for and no reason is given for the charge other than
that it is found int he Bill of Fees of. the; Messenger in
other Districts. It is not approved.

jA . Office of Udolpho Wolfe, ^^_
Solo Importer of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps,
22 Bkaveb Street,
New Norlt, Nov. '3, 1868.
To the People of the Southern - States.
When the pure medicinal restorative, now so widely
known as Wolfe's Schiedam Schnapps, was introduced
into the world under the endorsement of four thou
sand leading members of the medical profession some
20 years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it
could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all
newand useful preparations. He, therefore, endeav
ored to invest it with strongest possible safeguards
against counterfeiters, and to render all attempts to
pirate it difficult and dangerous. It was submitted to
distinguished cheminsts for analysis, and pronounced
by them the purest spirit ever manufactured. Its pu
rity and properties having been thus ascertained, sam
ples of the' article were forwarded to ten thousand
physicians, including all the leading practitioners in
the United States, for purposes of experimen. A
circular, requesting a trial of the preparation and are-
port of the resnlt, accompanied each speciment. Four
thousand of the most eminent medical men in the
Union promptly responded. Their opinions of the
article were irnaTiimnuwiy favorable. Such a prepara
tion, they said, had long been wanted by the profes
sion, as no reliance could be placed on the ordinary-
liquors of commerce, all of which were more or less
adulterated, and therefore unfit for medical purposes.
The peculiar excelence and strength of the oil of juni
per, which formed one of the principle ingredients of
the Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of
the alcoholic element, give it, in the estimation of the
faculty, a marked superiority over every other
diffusive stimulant as a diuretic tonic and restorative.
These satisfactory ■ credentials from professional
men of the highest rank were published in a con
densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of the
Schnapps,, as one of the guarantees of its genuine
ness. Other precautions against fraud were also
adopted; a patent was obtained for the article, the
lable was copywrighted, a fac simile of the proprietor’s
autograph signature was attached to each lable and
cover, his name and that of the preparation were em
bossed on the bottles, and the corks were sealed with
his private seal. No article had ever been sold in this
country under the name of Schnapps prior to the in
troduction-of Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps,
in 1851; and the lable was deposited, as his trade mark,
in the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York during that year.
It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with
the daring character of the pirates who prey upon the
reputation of honorable merchants by vending delete
rious trash under their name, that the protections so
carefoljy thrown around these Schnapps wonld have
precluded the introductions and sale of counterfeits.
They seem, however, only to have stimulated the
rapacity of impostors. The trade mark of the proprie
tor has been stolen; the indorsement which his Schie
dam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from the medi
cal profession has been claimed by mendacious hum
bugs; his labels and bottles have been imitated, his ad
vertisements paraphrased, his circulars copied, and
worse than all, dishonorable retailers, after disposing
of the genuine contents of his bottles, have filled them
up with common gin, the most deleterious of all
liquors, and ttfus made his name and brand a cover
for poison.
The public, the medical profession and the sick, for
whom the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is prescribed
as a remedy, arc equally interested with the proprie
tor in the detection and suppression of these nefari
ous practices. The genuine article, manufactured at
the establishment of the undersigned, in Schiedam,
Holland; is distilled from a barley of the finest quality,
and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of
tb«- Italian juniper, of unequalled purity. By a process
uuknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it is
freed from every acrimonious and corrosive element.
Complaints have been received from the leading
physicians and families in the Southern States of the
sale of cheap imitations of the Schiedam Aromatic
Schnapps in those markets; and travellers, who are in
the habit of using it as an antidote to the baneful in-,
fluence of unwholesome river water, testify that cheap
gin, put up in Schiedam bottles, is frequently palmed
off upon the unwary. The agents of the undersigned
have been requested to institute inquiries on the sub
ject, and to forward to him the names of such parties
as they may ascertain to be engaged in the atrocious
system of deception. In conclusion, the undersigned
. would say that he has produced, from under the hands
of the most distinguished men of science in America
proofs unanswerable of the purity and medicinal ex*
cellence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he
has expended many thousand dollars in surrounding
it with guarantees and safeguards, which he designed
should protect the public and himBelf against fradulent
imitations; that he has shown it to be tha^ only liquor
in the world that can be uniformly depended upon as
unadulterated; that lie has challenged investigation,
analysis, comparison, and experiment in all its forms:
and from every ordeal the preparation which bears his
name, seal and trade mark, has come off triumphant.
He therfore feels it a duty he owes to his fellow-citizens
generally, to the medical profession and the sick, to
denounce and expose the charlatans who counterfeit
these evidences of identity, and he calls upon the press
and the public to aid him in his efforts to remedy so
great an eviL

I feel bound to say, that I regard yonr Selina

Udolpho Wolfe, Esq., Present:
Dear Sir: I have made a chemical examination of
a sample of your Schiedam Schnapps, with the intent
of determining if any foreign or injurious substance
had been added to the simple distilled spirits.
The examination has resulted in the conclusion that
the sample contained no poisonous or harmful admix
ture. I have been unable to discover any trace of the
deleterious substances which are employed in the
adulteration of liquors. I would not hesitate to use
myself or to recommend to others, for medical pur
poses, the Schiedam Schnapps as an excellent and un
objectionable variety of gin.
Very respectfully yours,
(Signed) CHAS. A. SEELY, Chemist.
New York, 53 Cedar Street,
November 26, 1867.
Udolpho Wolfe, Esq., Present:
DearSib: I haye submitted to chemical analysis
two bottles of “Schiedam Schnapps,” which I took
from a fresh package in your bonded warehouse, and
find, as before, that the spirituous liquor is free from
injurious ingredients or falsification; that it has the
marks of being aged and not recently prepared by
mechanical admixture of alcohol and aromatics.
Respectfully,
FRED. F. MAYER, Chemist.
New York, Tuesday, May L
Udolpho Wolfe, Esq.: ^
Dear Sib: The want of pure Wines and Liquors for
medicinal purposes has been long felt by the profes
sion, and thousands of lives have been sacrificed by
the use of adulterated, articles. Delirium tremens,
and other diseases of' the brain and nerves, so rife in
this country, are very rare in Europe, owing, in 4
great degree, to the difference in the purity of the
spirits sold.
We have tested the several articles imported and
sold by you, including your Gin, which you sell un
der the name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, which
we consider justly entitled to the high reputation it
has acquired in this countiy; and from your long ex
perience as a foreign importer,your Bottled Wines and
Liquors'should meet with the same demand.
We would recommend you to appoint some of the
respectable apothecaries in different parts of the city
as agents for the sale of yonr Brandies and Wines,
where the profession can obtain the same when need
ed for medicinal purposes.
Wishing you success in yonr new enterprise.
We remain yonr obedient servants,
