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 eral days. We lay it before our readers for tbe purpose only ot stating to tbe several Christian denominations, whenever they assemble in At lanta, as a presbytery, association, or conven tion, or when calls are made tor cither to con vene, the columns of this paper will ever be open to them free of charge, under its present owner ship and conduct. Nor will its proprietor con ceal that the appreciation of his course, as mani fested in the present instance, is agreeable to him: Atlanta, December 10,1808. Hon J. I. Whitaker: Dear Sir—It becomes my duty, as Secretary of the North Georgia Annual Conlerence, M. E. Gliurch, South, to convey to you its expressions ot gratitude lor certain kind services mentioned in the resolution of thanks. I am, most truly aud respectfully, ATl’lCIIS G. Haygood. 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 Augusta National Republican. 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 Circular from Hon. Nelson Till. The tollowing circular trom the Hon.

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.

Omin oy Udolpho Wo urn, Sole Ihtorter i 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. DAVID L. MOTT. M. D„ Pharmaceutical Chemist, New' York. 26 Fum Btbeet, New York, i Nov. 21, 1867. f 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, (Signed) CHA8. A. BEELY, Chemist. New Yobk, 53 Cbdar Street, I November 26, le67. ( 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. New Yobk, Tuesday, May 1. Udolpho Wbl'e, Ksq.; 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. VALENTINE MOTT, M. D., Professor of Surgery, Un v> rsity Medical College, New York. M. CAKNOOHAN, M.
