Denr Sri have made a chemical
examination of a sample of your Scbie-
dam Schnapps, with the intent Of de-
termining If any foreign or injurious
substance had been added to- ths simple,

employed in the adulteration of liquors..

Complaints have been received from
the leading physicians and families in
Southern States of the sale of cheap
limitations OF the Schiedam Aromatic
Schnapps in those markets; and trav-
eller, who are in the habit of using it as
an antidote to the taneful influence of
uuwholesome river water, testify that
cheap gin, put up in Schnapp bottles,
is frequently palmed off upon the un.
wary. The agents Of the undersigned
have been requested to institute inqui-
ries on the subject, and to forward to
him the names of such parties as they
may ascertain to be engaged in the
atrocious system of deception. In con-
clusion, the undersigned would say that
he has produced, from under the hands
of the most distinguished men ofscience
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
safeguards, 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 uniformly depended upon
as unadulterated; that he has challenged
investigation, analysis, comparison and
experiment in all its forms; and from
every ordeal the preparation which
bears his name, seal and trade mark, has

When Governor washburn says in his mes
sage that the law regulating interest is in the
condition Of one thst is WHOLLY disregarded,'
he cannot be using language with exactness.
The law indeed is constantly violated Even the
Savings Banks nowadays daily violate their
charters by taking eight and nine per cent. in
ierest on loans. and little or money probably,
j. loaned outright at six per cent But as to all
accounts running upon interest, interest paid by
or coming to estates passing through the Probate
Courts, and all transactions in which no special
Of interest is specified, the legal rate of six
per cent obtains These different classes of trans
actions form large proportion of those in
voIving the payment Of interest, and as TO these
the law is still of service
The amount of violations of the law has simply
increased since the war. 1t was always violated
more or less. In the old days, when plenty Of
money was loaned at six per cent, there were
many men in the State who always secured ten
and twelve per cent, and did it with IMMUNITY.
Ma 'chusett-, lat year, passed. law per-
hitting cnuAcJs at higher rate Of interest

laturc will CONSIDER carefully the effect of the
change proposed in the interest law, before
adopting them.

fIEal idjauTHmcrg o, the Council OF
CeDsOrS,

The Council Of Censors-the last Of its race
We trusi-has finally adjourned. after complet-
ng lis unfinished business, and drawing its pay.
to supply the funds for which an extra appro-
priation Of $1,000 Was Friday hurried through
the Legislature. Its work, briefly summed up,
has been the calling of a convention, to consist
Of one member from each town, to meet at Mont.
pe'ier in June next, to act upon the following
articles Of amendments Of the Constitution,
submitted by the Council
F0rbdding the creation of corporations by
special acts, except for municipal purposes
Substituting biennial for annual sessions Of
the Legislature, and elections of State and Coun-
ty cfh,ers.
Giving the appointment of Judges of the
Supreme Court to the Governor and Senate, with
term Of six years.
Extending suffrage to women on the same
terms as men.
Abolishing the Council Of Censors, and giving
the power of amending the Constitution to the
legislature and the people.
The Council were by no means unanimouson
al aese articles. 4 majority are understood to
be opposed 10 the abolition Of the Council; but
they considered it their duty to submit the ques-
ton to the people. So several members who
favored the abolition Of the Council, assented to
the woman suffrage article although not in
favor Of woman suffrage, it being understood
that unless that article was submitted, it might
be difficult to get the requisite vote for calling
convention. In other words, the Council agreed
TO let all the proposed amendments 60 to the
convention for adoption or rejection. With some
Of them, We doubt not, the convention will make
quick work.
