Book Notice.
BAtTNscnEiDTttM.—Tlii* is the title of a vol
ume issued from the press of the “Intelligek-
cer Book and Job Officii,” by iU author, Dr.
M. L. Liohtsnstadt—a fellow-citizen of ours
well and favorably known in this community—
a practical Baunscheidtist, according to the sys
tem of the inventor of the Biomstcr, or, as it is
popularly called, the “Needle InstrumentWe
have glanced over the pages of this w ork, and
have been greatly interested in many ol the facts
and theory embraced therein. Since the return
ol Dr. Lichtenstadt from Europe he has had
great success in his practice, and his volume em
braces a large number of certificates Irom citi
zens of the highest respectability in this State
aud Alabama, many of them persons of distinc
tion, as well as from eminent prolessional men
aud others abroad, which testily strongly to the
virtue of the art, aud to his skill aud success in
the practice of iU In this city.especially Dr. L.
has been eminently successful in his Baunscheid-
ti*t, or Needle practice, as any of our readers
will perceive who will get a copy ot his book ;
and as be proposes, we learu, to visit some of
our Southern cities, in his professional capacity
to do all the good he can, we would advise the
afflicted to get a copy of his book, and see if in
tbe use of the “ Need e Instrument ” as applied
by him, thoy cannot be relieved or cured. '1 he
books embraces translations from the various
editions ot Bauuscheidt’s works, on the sell-treat
ment of disease by menus of the “ Needle,” aud
is illustrated with several plates. Both to the
sullcring and curious we commend it, as we do
Du. Ligutbnstadt in the tour which he designs
making throughout this and the adjacent States.
Dr. L. will first visit Augusta and then proceed
to Macon. _
A Vote ul' Tliauki,
The following vote, with the resolution ac
companying it, has been in our possession sev

fested in the present instance, is agreeable to

Atlanta, December 10,1808.
Hon J. I. Whitaker:
Dear Sir—It becomes my duty, as Secretary

Gliurch, South, to convey to you its expressions
ot gratitude lor certain kind services mentioned
in the resolution of thanks.

extract from thk minutes.
On motion of George N. Lester, Esq., the fol
lowing resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That the thanks ot this Conference
are due, and hereby tendered, to the Hon. Jared
I Whitaker, publisher and proprietor ol
the Atlanta Intelligencer, for his generous
declination to charge or accept any compensa
tion for publishing iu his paper the proceedings
to incorporate this body, and that the Secretary
make special communication of this resolution
to Judge Whitaker.
“ Let Ui Have Peace ! ” lu Arkauiai.
We learn from the most loyal ol the radical
papers, that “meu, women, and children, trades
men, laborers, and citizens of all sorts are llj ing
Irom Arkansas” We thought as we commenced
to read the paragraph that we should find that
the Ku Klux Klan, Kedhandod Rebels, Perjured
Traitors, or at least, Copperheads, were the
moving cause of this rapid exodous, this w ide
spread terror, this universal flight among the
good people of reconstructed Arkansas, but we
could hardly believe our eyes when we read
that the loyal uegro militia, organized, armed
aud equipped by the loyal Governor of Arkan
sas, aud commanded by loyal officers, for tbe
purpose of securing life, libirty aud the pursuit
of liappiuess, were the cause ot the panic.
Tbe outrages committed by this armed band
ot savages at the instance of the tieud who
writes himself Governor ot Aikansas would
bring a blush to the face of a Camauche Indian.
Men, women and children are shot down and
bayonetted by scores. The houses and stores of
citizens plundered and burned. Rape, rapine,
murder, mayhem and robbery, m irk the track
ot Clayton’s savages. The whole population ot
a Slate is given over, lied hand aud
loot, to the lust and license ot bands of armed
barbarians, and (he desolation ot the low coun
tries by Alva becomes mild severity as com
pared with the scenes of brutality daily enacted
in 1808 by this infamous carpet-bag despot with
whom tecoustrutliou has cursed a people, under
the pretence of guaranteeing to them a republi
can form ot government. Not a word is said in
Congress „by any radical in rebuke or disap
proval of Clayton or his militia. Nothing is
done or contemplated to stay the hand of de
vastation, and save a defenseless people from
destruction. Bet if a lying newspaper corres
pondent, Lircd lor the purpose, writes a false
btory of an outrage upon a negro or a scalawag,
’nsluntly the cry goes up, “Troops, more troops
to keep the rebels in subjection.”
The fate of Arkansas will be the fate of Geor
gia it Sumner’s bill becomes the act of Congress.
May God in His increy defend us from such a
calamity!
Professors of Trooly Lollir.
Mr. Garfield of Ohio, M. C., proposes that
Congress should empower the President to send
two army officers, and a couple of filers and
drummers to at least one college iu each State as
instructors, the officers, the liters aud the drum
mers to be paid and supplied with books, stores,
camp equipage, arms, and ammunitiou, at the
expense of tbe Treasury.
We would suggest that these instructors be
knowu by tbe name, style, aud title, ot Profes
sors of Trooly Loilty, aud as they will ot course
wear a nnifoim that they wear the well known
motto “ Let us have peace,” in gold Utters
on some conspicuous part of tlicir dress. We
do not exactly see the use ot the fllcis aud the
drummers, except it be that each professor ot
Trooly Loilty, like the old woman ot BaJibnry
Cross, “shall have music wherever he goes.”—
Bat might not this be effected more economi
cally by copying the attire of the old lady be lore
mentioned, and making the professor wear ‘rings
on his fingers and belts on his toes':”
» Ekal Hicks*” ta PrsMItc.
The only veritable man and a brother, whose
black skin proves bis loyalty and whose wool
vouches for his Radicalism, who has been elected
to Congress, is not, and never will be, allowed
to take his seat. We allude to the case of
Menard, the Illinois negro, who claims to repre
sent a district of Louisiana.
He is described as residing in “a tumble-down
rookery” in Washington, “occupied by a super
annuated and impecunious negro barber. He is
dressed in “ a suit ot cheap tweed, with a Jim
Crow hat and slippers," and his food con
gists of corn bread and pork. He complains
bitterly of the way in which he has been neg
lected by the Radicals. “Nobody,” he says,
was inclined to come near me, and I didn’t
want to sit there and be stared at as a curious
kiud of an animal, for nobody cared to talk to
me but two reporters, one of whom wanted to
make a sketch of me, and the other wanted to
get a short history ot my life; aud even the
Louisiana carpet-baggers, Newsham and Sypher,
edged away the moment they saw me in their
neighborhood.”
Without professing to any accurate knowl
edge of the merits ot this case, we would ven
ture to remark that prima facie, tbe great doc
trine of “ekal rights," has been violated in the
treatment of Menard. A “tumble down rook
ery last settling down in the adjacent mud,” is
not a fitting residence for the first negro mem
ber of Congress; nor is it right that “a superan
nuated aud impecunious negro barber” should
be his sole triend, philosopher, and guide.
The best apartments in Buraner’s palatial
mansion should be his home. He should be the
honored guest at the tables of Wade, Colfax,
Butler, Boutwell, and alt the other advocates ot
the new reading of the doctriue that all men are
born tree and equal—that is, that cornfield
blackamoors are superior to Southern white
men. Terrapins and canvass-backed ducks, and
not corubread and pork, should be his food, and
black’broad cloth, aud a shiny stove pipe should
be his raiment, instead of the cheap tweed and
the jim crow hat He ought to be “the fa
vored guest ol every gay and festive
throng,” and no company should be
considered complete until the Honorable Me
nard had graced it by his presence. It is thus
we comprehend ekal rights from a reconstructed
point of view. It is thus that trooly loilty, it it
be geuuine, must construe the 14th constitu
tional auiendmeut, by which it became the
supreme law that negroes are universally eligi
ble to everything, and that their claims to office
need no further proof than their own uncor
roborated statements.
Where is Tilton ? Where is Miss Anna Dick
inson? What says the Anti-Slavery Standard?
Is H. G. silent, and does Henry Ward Beecher
allow such iniquities to pass unrebuked Irom his
platform at Plymouth Church ?
It may be that ekal rights mean that Menard
or any other nigger is good enough to represent
Southerners in Southern States, but not to sit by
Northern men, just as Ohio aud Michigan and
Connecticut declared that every nigger shall
vote in the South, but that not a single nigger
shall vote within their borders. This was said
to be the doctrine of the Chicago platform as
expounded by the Democrats but we thought
that the Democrats were only a set of Copper
heads and rebel sympathizers and that they
could not rise to the level of ekal rights. If it
is not the thing, “it looks mighty like it.” While
Menard is excluded Irom his seat, is the occu
pant of the tumble down rookery, and tbe
superannuated and impecunious barber is his
soie companion, Tilton, Miss Anna, H. G. and
Beecher have not done their duty, Sumner, But
ler and Boutwell are recreaut to their profes
sions, and ekal rights are a delusion and a snare
Where lit Caleb CimIHue f
Who killed Cock Robin? and who struck
Billy Patterson? have long been questions of
absorbing interest because never satisfactorily
answered. For tbe present, however, they are
surpassed by the more recent and exciting ques
tion, whither and wherefore is Caleb Cushing
gone. All sorts of answers are given, but they
only serve to stimulate the fire of public in
quiry. lie is gone to London to help Reverdy
Johnson in adjusting the Alabama claims, tie
is gone to Madrid to offer a couple of hundred
millions in gold for Cuba, with orders to buy it
“regardless of cost.” He is gone to Bogota to
cut a Dutch Gap canal across the Isthmus of
Darien, and unite the Atlantic and Pacific
Oceans. He is gone to Paris to flaner on the
boulevards, and instruct Louis Napoleon in the
management ot the press. He is gone to Con-
staniiuople to teach the Grand Turk the Gre
cian Bend, that potentate finding it rather hard
just now to make the Greeks bend as he desires.
But uoue of these alleged objects of Caieb’s
travels satisfies tbe public. The question is still
heard on all hands, where is Caleb gone ?
For our own part we do not know and do
not care, and iu the words ot the old rhyme we
would say :
“ Joy be with him,
Aud a bottle of mots;
If he never comes back
He’* no great loss."

The publisher of this paper announces its ex
piration on Christmas Eve. It is »o be suc-
deeded by the Augusta Daily Press, to be con
ducted by Col. C. R. Hanleiter, who anuouuces
the following as bis programme :
The Daily Press will not champion any politi
cian or political organization. Ik will be inde
pendent in its comments on current events. It
will reserve the right lo commend that which is
commendable, aud to rebuke, in dignified lan
guage, that which may be detrimeutal to the
public interests. To contribute to the restora
tion of the old-fashioned prosperity ot Georgia,
and the happiucss of its people, aud to publish
tbe best and cheapest newspaper in the State,
will be the highest ambition ot all connected
with it. I only ask that the paper shall be
judged by its merits

HoUsX OF RBPH56XNTAIIVK8 UNITED STATES, I
Washington, December 16, 1868. j
To the Honorable Judges of the Supreme Court,
Judges of the Superior Courts, Judges of Courts
of Ordinary, and Mayors of Cities in the State
of Georgia :
The present condition of affaire in Georgia is
being investigated before the “Joint Committee
on Reconstruction,” with a purpose of adopting
such action by Congress as may seem to them ne
cessary and proper to insure the faithful and
prompt administration oi the laws, and protec
tion to the rights of all classes of persons and
pioptrty.
Certain parties from Georgia, and among
them her present Governor, with the avowed
people are inflicting upon innocent negroes in
that State.
It is important to the character and interests
of Georgia that the truth should be known on
these subjects, and as one of her representatives
in Congress, I take the liberty to ask you, as an
officer of the State, to furnish me with a brief
statement ot your personal knowledge of the
truth or falshood of the representations which
are being made ot affairs in Georgia, and yonr
opinion of the effect upon the interests ot Geor
gia and the United States of the adoption of the
above measures, which are now being urged
upon Congress.
My object in this communication Is to place
your teslimouy before the Reconstruction Com
mittee, which will meet here January 5, 1869,
and subsequently, if necessary, before Congress •
1. Are the laws of Congress faithfully and im
partially administered ?
2. Is there any orgauized or any unorganized
resistance to the l^w ?
3. Are the officers of the law faithful to their
duties ?
4 What is the disposition, teeling and treat
ment of fhe white people towards the blacks?
5. What towards Republicans?
6. What towards Northern men visiting or
desiring to settle in Georgia ?
7. Do the people desire peace, and a restora
tion ot their prqpcr relation to the Slates aud
government of the Union ?
8. 13 there, in your opinion, any necessity or
justification tor the proposed destruction of the
present government ot Georgia, and the estab
lishment of a military or provisional govern
ment*
Please answer as early as practicable. Very
respectfully, your obedient servant,
Nelson Tift.

OF THE SCHUCDAJt AkoMATIC SCHNAPPS, '»
22 Bkavek Street, New York, Nov. 8, Ib58. j
To the People of the Southern States:
When the pure medicinal restorative, now #o widely
known ns Wolfe’s Schiedam Scht-apps, was introduced
into the world under the endorsement of four thousiiud
ending members of the medical profession some twenty
year# ago, its proprietor was well aware that, it could
not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new und
useful preparations. He, therelore, endeavored to in
vest it with strongest possible safeguard against coun
terfeiters, and to render all attempt# to pirate it dilUcult
and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguished
chemists Tor dialysis, and pronounced by them the pu
rest spirits ever manufactured. Its purity uud properties
having been thus ascertained, samples of theartic.e were
forwarded to ten thousand physician#, including all tae
leading practitioners in the United States, for purpose#
of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of tuo p.-,-
paration and report of the result, accompanied each spe
cimen. Foot thousand oi the most eminent medical tmn
in the Union promptly responded. Their opinions ot
the article were unanimously favorable. Kuch a prepara
tion, they said, had long been wanted by the prolession,
as no reliance coaid be placed on the ordinary liquors of
commerce, all of which were more or le#s adulterated,
and therefore nuflt for medical purposes. The peculiar
excellence and strength of the oil of juniper, which form
ed one of the principal ingredients of the Schnapps, to
gether with an unalloyed character ot the alcoholic ele
ment, give it, in the estimation of tne faculty, a marked
superiority over every other diffusive stimulant as a diu
retic, touio, and restorative.
These satisiactory credentials irom professional men
of the highest rank were published in a condensed form,
aud enclosed with each bottle of the Schnapps, as one of
the guarantees of its genuineness. Other precaution#
against fraud were also adopted; a patent was obtained
or the article, the label was copyrighted, a fac simile o
the proprietor’s autograph signature was attache.! to
each label and cover, his name and that of the prepara
tion were embossed on the bottles, and the corks were
st aled with bis private seal. No article had ever been
sold in this country under the name of Schnapps prior
to the introduction of Wolfe’s Schiedam Aromatic
Schuapps, in 1851; and the label was deposited, ns his
trade mark, In the United States District Court for ihe
Southern District of New York during that year.
It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with
the daring character of tbe pirates who prey upon the
reputation of honorable merchants by vending delete
rious trash under their name, that the protection# so
carefully thrown aroond those Schnapps would hat c pre
cluded the introductions and sale ol counterfeits. They
seem, Ugwover, only to have stimulated the rapacity of
impostors. The trade mark of the proprietor b.-is been
stolen; the indorsement which UiB t-cliiedam Aromatic
Schnapps alone received fiom the medical profession
has been claimed by mendacious humbugs; his labels
and bottles have been imitated, his advertisements para
phrased, his circulars copied,.and worse than all, dishon
orable retailers, after disposing of the genuine content#
of his bottles, have filled them up with common gin, the
most deleter.ous of all liquors, and thus made his name
and brand a cover for poison.
The public, the medical profession, and the sick, fot
whom the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is prescribed as
a remedy, are equally interested with the proprietor iu
the detection aud suppression of these nefarious prac
tices. The geuuine article, manufactured at the estab
lishment of the undersigned, in Schiedam, Holland, is
distilled Irom a barley of the finest quality, and flavoted
with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian juni
per, oi uucqualed purity. B« a process unknown in the
preparation of any other liquor, it is freed from every
acrimonious aud corros.ve element.
Complaints have been received from the leading physi
cians and families in the Southern States of the sale of
cheap imitations of ths Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps in
those markets, and travelers who are in the habit of
nsiug it as an antidode to the baneful influence of un
wholesome river water, testify that cheap gin, put up in
Sheridan bottles, is frequently palmed off upon the nu-
wary. The agents of the undersigned have been request
ed to institute inquiries on the subject, and to forward
to him the names of each parties as they may ascertain
to be engaged in the atrocious system of deception, lu
conclusion, the undersigned would say that be has pro
duced, fioin under the hands of the most distinguished
men of science in America, proofs unanswerable of the
purity and medicinal excellence of the Schiedam Aro
matic Schnapps; that he has expended many thousand
dollars iu surrounding it with guarantees and safeguards
which he designed should protect the public and himself
against fraudulent imitations; that he has shown it to be
the only liquor in the world that can be uniformly de
pended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged
investigation, analysis, compuraison, and experiment iu
all its forms; and from every ordeal the preparation
which b ars his name, seal, and trade mark, has come off
triumphant. He therefore ieels it a duty he owes to his
fellow-citizens generally, to the medical profession aud
the sick, to denounce aud expose the charlatans who
counterfeit these evidences of identity, and he calls upon
the press aud the public to aid him in his efforts Lo rem
edy so great an evil.
The following letters and certificates from the leading
physicians and chemists ot this city will prove to the
reader that all goods sold by the undersigned are all they
are represented to he.
UDOLPHO WOLFE.
I feel bound to say that I regard your Schnapps as be
ing in every respect pre-eminently pure, and deserving of
medical patronage. At all events, it Is the purest possi
ble article of Holland Gin, heretofore unobtainable, and
as such may be safely prescribed by physician s.

Udolpho Wolfe, Esq., Tresent:
Deak 8ik—I have made a chemical examination of a
sample of your Schiedam Schnapps, with Ihe intuit of
determining if any foreign or Injurious sub.-tauccs had
been added to the simple distilled spirits.
Tho examination has resulted in the conclusion that
the sample contained no poisonons or harmful admix
ture. I have been unable to discover auy trace of the
deleterious substances which are employed in the adul
teration of liquors. I would net hesitate to use myself,
or to recommend to others, lor medicinal purposes, the
Schiedam Schuapps as an excellent and uuobjectionable
variety of gin.
Veiy respect/ally yours,

Udolpho Wolfe, Rtq., Present:
Dear Sib—I have 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 ingredi
ents or falsification ; that it has tbe mark# of being aged
and not recently prepared by mechanical admixture ol
alcohol and aromatics.
Respectfully,
FfiBD. F. MAYER, Chemist.

Dear Sir—The want of pure Wines and liqnors forme
diciual purposes has been long felt by the profession,
and thousands of lives have been sacrificed by the use of
adulterated articles. Delirium tremens, and other dis
eases of the bruin aud nerves so rife in this country, are
very rare in Europe, owing, in a great degree, to the 8if
fertnee in the purity of the spirits sold.
We have tested the several articles imported and sold
by you, including your Gin, which you sell under the
name of Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, which we con
sider justly entitled to ihet Igh reparation it has acquired
lu this country ; und from your long experience as a for
eign importer, yonr Bottled Wines aud Liqnors should
meet with tbe same demand.
We would recommend you to appoint some of the re
spectable apotliecuries in different parts of the eity a
agents for (he sale of your Brandies and Wines, wher
the profe.-sion can obtain the same when needed for
medicinal purposes.
Wishing you snccees in yonr new enterprise,
We remain yonr obedient servants.
