Complaints have been received from the
leading physicians and families in the
Southern States, Of the sale of cheap init
tations OF the Schiedam Arom attic
Schnapps In those markets; and travellers,
who are in the habit Of using 1t as an anti.
dote to the baneful influence of unwhole-
some 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 subject, and to
forward to him the names of such parties
the atrocious system Of deception. In
conclusion, the undersigned would say
that he has produced, from under the
hands or the most distinguished men OF
science in America, proofs unanswerable
OF the purity and medicinal excellence of
the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he
has expended many thousand dollars in
surrounding it with guarantees and safe
guards, which he designed should protect
the public and himself against fraudulent
limitations; that he has shown it to be the
only liquor in the world that can be uni.
formly depended upon as unadulterated: :
that he has challenged investigation,
ana!ysls, 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, therefore, feels it duty he owes to his
fellow-citizens generally, to the medical
profession and the sick, to denounce and
expose the Charlatans who count, ,rfeit
these evidences of identity, and he calls
upon tho press and the public to aid him
In his efforts to remedy 80 great an evil

feel bound 10 eay, shat regard YOUR
Schnapps as being, in every respect, pre-
emlncntly pure, and deserving OF medical
patronage. AT all events, it is the purest

prescribed by ply sicians.

DEAR SIR: l have made chemical ex-
animation of n sample OF your Schiedam
Schnapps, with the intent of determining
II 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 admixture. have
been unable to discover any trace of the
deletorious substances which are employed
in the adulteration of liquors. 1 would
not hesitate to Use myself, or to recon-
mend to others, for medicinal purposes,
the Schiedam Sclnapps as an excellent
and unobiecsionable variety Of gin. Very
respectfully yours.

DEAR SIR: The want of pure Wines and
Liquors, for medicinal purposes, has been
long felt by the profession, and thousands
or lives have been sacrificed by tho use of
adnlterated articles. Delirium tremens,
and other diseases of the brain and nerves,
80 rife in this country. are very rare in
Europe; owing, in great degree, to the
difference In the purity of the spirits sold.
We have tested the several articles i'm
ported and sold by you, including your
Gin, which you sell under the name of Aro-
matlo Schiedam Schnapps, which we con-
slider justly entitled to the high reputation
it has acquired in this country; and, from
your long experience as foreign impor-
ter, your Bottled Wines and Liquors
should meet with the same demand.
We would recommend you to appoint
some of tho respectable apothecaries in
different parts of the city as agents for the
sale OF your Brandies and Wines, whore
the profession can obtain the same when
needed for medicinal purposes.
Wishing you success in your new enter
prise, we remain your obedient servants.

Saturday Morning, June 13. 1868.
Presidential Canvass in South Caro-
linn.
On the Fourth of July next, the
national Democratic party will meet
in Convention to nominate candi-
date for the Presidency, and to pre-
sent @ declaration Of principles.
After this has been done, then the
issue with radicalism will be joined,
md our work put before us.
We hope that the united Demo-
cracy of the State will then go to
work, from Oconee to Charleston,
and from Abbeville to Horny. The
most important issue that has ever
yet been before the country, will be
presented. It is not only to be con-
sidered, whether the South shall bo
redeemed, but whether, on this con-
tinent, free institutions shall prevail,
or not-whether we shall have Con-
stitutional ruler, or military despot
Here, in South Carolina, the issue
is specially important to us. To carry
the State for the Democratic nomi-
nee, which ought to be our earnest
object, we must go to work, and to
work i'll practical, business-like,
common sense way. In this vital
tourney with radicalism, no car
pet knight will win the day.
In this political struggle, no
kid-glove politician will effect the
object in view. We shall need earn
est working men on the political
field. We shall require men who
will take their coats off, roll up their
sleeves, and work from day to day
work with the pen, work with the
voice, work with their influence.
work in every Legitimate way.
Nor must we disdain to get tho
coiorcd vote, ii we can. AS for our
selves, We shall not decline the honest
conservative colorcd mans aid, when,
invested rs he has been with the right
to vote, he comes forward and offers
TO help us to save tho Commonwealth.
TO win in the coming fight, VIC must
accept every recruit we can get.
But let it not be assumed that we
propose to secure the colorcd voter
by any means inconsistent with our
own principles Oh his interests. The
negro votes. We may not like it.
The negro, nevertheless, does vote,
and this fact we cannot ignore. Now,
that philosophy is the best, which
bravely looks events in tho face, and
accepts, with equanimity, that which
is. Hence, i'll view of surrounding
circumstances, we advocate tho policy
of winning tho colored mans vote,
for lis 0icn interests, 0n0 or 0Wn IN
fcIcStS And this, We conceive, is one
OF the most important objects to be
kept in view. Vote lie c0lorca uuu,
Tor you vote him for your own bcnc-
fit, AMI you cOtc him into It future Eo,.
his O,rn ,ttce.
Let the colorcd man understand,
for it is the truth, that when he
votes anl ties himself to radicalism,
he DEGREES his own doom, but that
when lie attaches himself to the De
mocratic party he has put himself in
tho direction OF the true interests of
his people. IIo lives with Dcmocra-
cy, but with radicalism ho prepares,
as race, to die.

Brief Points.

In yesterdays issue, by some acci-
dent, the following article became
strangely mixed-sentences trans
posed and language omitted, and
language put in. It appears cor
rccted thus:
l. It may he we'll to romarlk, thu t
the State is not to be saved, in this
emergency, by craftsmanship
which may be summed up in three
words, to wit: "Damn Me negro. F"
Nor is it to be redeemed from negro
supremacy by reiterating the declara-
tion that "this is a aOhiie man's goce'm-
naent." Instead of repeating Mts state
mcnt. timo and again, let us go to
work and seek to make IL a g0ue'm-
nent untle7. aohitc control.
2. In the Columbia Convention,
General Gary, of Edgefeld, stated
that tho question of suffrage-so
grave subject not to be
controlled ssby beardless, inexpcri-
cnccd men," and added: "It belongs
to those who have made the matter
tho study Of q lifetime, to meet
calmly and decide what shall be the
political action Of the State"
Our friend is strangely inconsistent
here. He makes this suggestion of
modesty, just after saying that he
would not defer to General Hamp-
toms views on the subject IAN older
and more experienced man than he,
and, not long after, saying that ''he
was not ready to pin his faith to the
coat tail of any man."
Now, we have this to say-that, if
the question Of age and experience is
to decide between the two policies
which General Gary discusses, even
then our friend would find that he
has no advantage.
Although peace has been declared
between us, the General will indulge
us in O friendly tilt. Our friend scoms
to think that Edgcficld is unit with
him against anything like suffrage to
tho negro, and yet, in this issue, wo
publish the proceedings of an Edge
field meeting, opposing his views.
But this is not the point we desire to
make.
In the Columbia Convention, Gen.
Gary exhibited the strange incon-
sistcncy of proposing non-action
upon the issue of qualified suffrage,
and Immediately thereafter of speak
ing vchcmently against that feature
Of the April resolutions. However,
let that pass. The matter is no
longer at issue.
But General Gary charges some
body "with the atrocious crime Of
being q young man." Let us say,
that venerable boards often accom-
pany wisdom and moderation; but,
alter nll, better than GeartEs is brains.
And thus, in considering the argu-
monts which different men may put
forth on given subject, it is moro
important to find that the parties
show heacy brains than long beu1ls.
In this friendly thrust, our friend,
the war DcmOcrnt of told E,lrcficlI "
will excuse us for reminding him
that we do not object to his suggcs-
ton that the young ought to be
modest, but rather to his inconsistcn-
cy in not altogether following his
own preccpts. This defect, however,
we suppose, longer practice at the
Edgciicld Bar will correct.
At meeting of the Colorcd Dcmo-
cratic Club Of Columbia, on motion
