SCIIEIDAM
SCH,

Il BEG TO CALL THE ATTENTION. OF THE
Il merchants of California and Oregon to n
superior article of HOLLAND GIN, manufacture
ed by myself, exclusively. ut Scheidam, Holland.
and to distinguish it from every other alcoholic
stimulant in the worli, | gave it the name of
SCHEIDAM AROMATIC SCIINAPPS. 1t is the
pure tincture of the juniper, distilled from the
best barley that can be selec ted at any cost. 1t
is favored and medcatcd, not by the common
harsh berry, but by the choice botanical variety
of the Aromatic Italian Juniper Berry, whose
more vinous extract is distilled and rectified with
its spurious solvent and thus it becomes a con
centrated tncture Of exquisite flavor and aroma,
altogether transcendant in its cordial ana lnedl-
cinal properties to any Holland Gin in the world
Since the Introduction of the celebrated Scheld-
am Aromatic Schnapps, the proprietor has sub
mttcd it to the whole Medical Faculty of the
United States. Over three thou and endorse it,
over their own signatures, to be the purcst alco-
holic stmulant now in use. They also speak OF
the great success they have met with in their
practice in Gravel, Govt, Chronic Rheumatism,
distractions of the Kidneys. Bladder and Urinary
Organs. Persons travelling in the Southern and
Western States should always have supply on
hand as preventative against Agne and Fever,
and change of water. The physicians in New
Orleans and ST. Louis prescribe it with great con
fdence in case of Cholera, on account of the
purity of the article. UDOLPIIO WOLFE.
CAUTION TO THE PUBLIC.
Since the Introduction of my Scheidam Aroma
tic Schnapps into the United States a number of
Liquor Mixers in New York Boston, Philadelphia
and San Francisco, have been engaged in putting
up mixed and poisonous Gin in cases and jugs, to
be palmed off upon the unwary for my genuine
Schnapps. At first, they boldly connterfeited my
namc but soon stopped them by causing several
of them to be arrested. They now coniinc them
selves to closely initiating the appearance and
shape of my bottles and the peculiar wrapper
which have always used, viz: yellow paper
printed with red and blue ink and pastcboard
printed caps

BOGUS SCHNAPPS.
If the Liquor were fit to drink, there would be
no need to palm them off by countcrfciting the
peculiar style and appearance of the genuine
Wolles Schpapps. Adod these mixed and doc
torcd up limitations, as you would avoid shattered
nerves ruined stomach, and delirum tremens.-
The pure and genuine Schnapps have my name

AFTER THE BATTLE.

The drums are all muIled the bugIes are sui
There's q pause in the valley-a halt on the hll
And hearers of standards swerve back win thllh
where sbeaves of the dead bar the way
For great field is reaped Heavens garners to ILL.,
And stern death holds his harvest today
There's a voice on the wind like spirits low cry
,Tis the muster.roll sounding-and who shall reply
For those wan faces glare white to the sky,
With eyes fixed so steadfast and dmIy,
Az they wait that last trump which they may not delay
Whose hands clutch the sword-hilt so grmly
TIL. brave heads, late lifted, are solemnly bowed,
And the rdeIess chargers stand quverng ana co"eu'
As the burial requiem is chanted aloud,
Tho groaps of the deathstricken drowning:
While Victory looks on like queen, pale and proud
Who awaits till the morrow her GROWING.
There is no mocking blazon, as clay sinks to clay
The vain pomps of the peace time are all swept away
In the terrible face Of the dread battleday;
Nor cofins nor Surroundings are here;
Only relics that lay where thickest the Tray
A rent casque and headess spear
Far awav tramp on tramp peals the march of the foe
like storm.wave's rctreating-spent, ftful and Slow
With sound ike their spirits that faint as they go
By yon red d-glowng river whose waters
Shall darken with sorrow the land where they flow
To the eyes of her desoate daughters.
They are ed-they are gone but OH not as they came
In the pride those numbers they staked on the game
Never more shall they stand in the vanguard of fame
Never lift the stained sword which they drew;
Never more shall they boast of a glorious name,
Never march with the feal and the true.
Where the wreck of our legons lay stranded and lon
They stole on our ranks in the mSts OF the morn
Like the giant of GAIA their strength it was shorn
Ere those mists had rolled up to the sky
From tie flash OF steel new daybreak seemed born
As we sprung up-to conquer or die.
The tumult is sienced; the death lots is cast
Ard the heroes of battle are slumberinS their last.
Do ye dream of yon pale form that rode on the blast
Would We free il once more, o ye brave
Yes the broad road Honor is red where ye passed.
And of Glory We asked but-a grave!

Witness the case of Grace Paddy Writing
to Thomas Rankin, one of our missionaries
earliest sent over to America, he says: " ]
have lately been thinking a good deal on one
point wherein perhaps we have all been want
ing. We have not made it a rule as soon as
ever persons were justified to remind them Of
going on to perfection. Whereas this is the
very time preferable to all others. They have
then the simplicity Of little children, and they
are fervent in spirit, ready to cut off the right
hand or pluck out the right eye. But if we
once suffer this fervor to SuhSde, we shall find
it hard enough to bring them again ever to
this point" This letter was written at Ep-
worth. and is dated July 81, lT44.
Had we as people adhered to its doctrines
what a valiant race of Christians would we
have presented to the world How should
one chase a thousand, and two pnt ten thou

world for the worlds Redeemer. And even
now nv spirit seems urged to say that feel
u Divine conviction that if we will but make

The PERlLs OF AN AERONAUT.-Our citizens
are aware that Prof Steiner announced a bal
lon ascension 10 take place from Toronto
yesterday. The Professor with Captain Adam
Dot called on US this morning from whom we
learn the following respecting the ballon Eu-
ropa -
At half past one o'clock the imitation was
completed the baIon having received within
900 feet of ITS capacity, that is IS 600 feet
The Professor took his seat in the car, II which
were his Instruments 400 0pounds Of ballast and
his wooIIcn garments The ropes were cur,
and amid the cheers of the 40 600 spectators
the " Europa rapidly rose TO an altitude Of
5000 feet, when it struck a current which sent
it in a course about two points South Of East
bearing almost direct for Oswego, and fast max
ING for the middle Of the lake. At an average
altitude Of 10000 feet the Professor sailed
along to mid-lakc at which point he could not
see either end of the lake and could but ob
Scurey see the shores. 1t was then about
o'clock and the evening shades were being
spread over land and water. He was at that
time at his greatest altitude, being at an cle
vaton Of about ii 600 feet, and the Professor
says that never on a previous ascension has he
experienced so cold temperature. On near
ing Oswego a strange phenomenon attracted
his attention. He was sailing along through
the cIearcSt atmosphere, when suddenly he was
surrounded and buried in a vapor resembling
steam His balloon shot upwards with light
ming speeG, and as suddenly as the yapor ap-
pcaree so suddenly it disappeared. When the
" Europa " shot up "A discharge of gas was
made, and on reaching the more rarifed air at
once commenced rapidly descending. lie had
discharged all his ballast before this, and now
the question in his mind arose, how he was TO
save himself
The darkness had increased, and only by
lighthouses could he learn his altitude He con-
cluded he was just off Little Sodus and pre-
ferred to descend Oh the land if it could be
done He threw over his shawl, which Eight
cned little, following which went his rigging
grappIe irons, &c and finally tore out the lin
ing Of his car and threw it over He then
gradually rose and reached the shore about six
miles up the lake, the buoyant power being
still sufficient to sustain him he did not descend.

here be asked whether the Dutch had such
mills first as is commonly believed The first
saw-mill was erected in Holland at Saardam.
in the year 1896, and the invention of it is as
cribed to Cornelius CorneliSsen, but be is as lit
tie the inventor as the mathematician of Joach-
imsthal. Perhaps he was the first person who
built saw-mll at that place, which is a village
of great trade, and has still a great many
SawmlS, though the number of them is be-
coming daily less for within the last thirty
years hundred have been given up. The first
mill of this kind in Sweden was erected in the
year 1853
In England saw-niils had at first the same
fate that printing had in Turkey When at
temps were made to introduce them, they were
violently opposed, because it was apprehend.
ed that the sawyers would be deprived by them
of their means of getting subsistence For
this reason it was found necessary to abandon
a saw-mill erected by Dutchman near Lon
don, in 1868 and in the weary 100, when
one HOughton laid before the nation the ad-
vantageS OF such mill, lie expressed his ap-
prehension that it might excite the rage of the
populace What he dreaded was actually the
case in 1867 or l168, when an opu!ent timber
merchant, by the desire and appreciation of the
Society Of Arts, caused a saw-mill, driven by
the wind, to he erected at Lmehouse under
the direction of James StanSfield, who had
learned in Holland and Norway the art of con-
structng and managing machines Of that kind
A mob assembled and pulled the mill to pieces
bat the damage was made good by the nation
and some of the rioters were punished. A new
mill was afterwards erected which was suffer-
ed to work without mOestaton, and which
gave occasion to the erection of others. 1t
appears, however, that this was not the only
mill of the kind then in Great Britain, for one
driven also by wind had been built at Leith, in
SCOTLAND, some years before.
The application OF the steam-engine has in
modern times almost entirely displaced the use
of either water or wind as the source of power
in machinery, in England, at most of the saw
mills now in action especially those on a large
scale, are worked by steam-Beckmann's HIS

THE ORIGIN or CoRoNER's JURIEs-It is
not generally known how or in what manner
corOuer'S iuricS were originated. We believe
it was substantially the result of the following
circumstances A lady in London, after hav-
ing buried six husbands, found n gentleman
hardy enough to make her a wife once more.
For several months their happiness was mutual
a circumstance which seemed to pay no great
compliment to her former partners of her bed,
who as she said, kad diSguSted her by their
Sottshncss, and mfdety. I'm the view OF
knowing the character Of his amOrOuS mate the
gentleman began frequently to absent himself
Of return at late hours, and when he did return
to appear as if intoxicated. y t first reprOaCheS
but afterwards menaCGs, were the consequence
of his conduct The gentleman persisted and
seemed every day more addicted to his bottle
One evening. when she imagined him dead
drunk she uuSewed a leaden weight from one
Of the sleeves of her gown, and having melted
it, she approached her husband pretended still
to he asleep, in order to put it into his ear
through pipe.
Thus convinced of her wickedness, the gen
tleman started up aud seized her when having
procured assistance, he secured her until morn
inc, and conducted her before magistrate who
committed her to prison The bodies of her
six husbands mere dug up, and as marks of this
peculiar kind of violence was still dScoverable
upon each of them, the proof Of her guilt ap-
peared so strong upon her trial, that she was
condemned and executed.
To this circumstance is England indebted
to the useful regulation by which all deaths
not readily accounted for must undergo legal
inspection before interment.
