To THE CITIZENS OF WASHINGTON.

The proprietor begs leave to call the attention of
strangers and the citizens Of Washington, to very
superior article of Holland e in. which he introduced
to the American public under the name of Wolfe's
Scheldam Aromatic Schnapps.
This Gin Is manufactured by the proprietor ex clu-
sivey at his DIstlllery in Schedam, Holland. 1t Is
made from the best Barley that can be procured in
Europe, at any cost, and favored and indicated
not by the common harsh berry, hut Ivy the most
choice botanical variety of the Aromatic Italian Ju-
nlper Berry, whose more various extract is distiil
ed and reclfed with Its spirtuous solvent and thus
becomes concentrated tincture of exquisite fla
vOrs and aroma altogether transccnding in It's Cor
dial and Medicinal propertlesany alcoholic beverage
heretofore known.
The proprietor has submitted it to nearly the
whole Medical Faculty of the United States, and
has received answers from about four thousand
PLY sicians and Chemists who endorse it over their
signatures a most desirable addition to the Ma
terra Medica.
Persons who purchase should be full to get the
genuine article, as the whole country flooded with
cOunterfeits and limitations.
Put up in quart and pint bottles, in cases of one
dozen each, and for sale all the respectable Drug
Eists and Grocers In the United States.
