ment of 900 leading members N ei1iosl pro
fession, some twenty years ago, its proprietor wa
well aware that it could not wholly escape th
penalty attached to new and useful preparations
He, therefore, endeavored to invest it with tn
strongest possible safeguard against counterfeit
ers and to render all attempts to pirate it Difficult
and dangerous. 1t was submitted to distinguish
Cd chemists for analysis, and pronounced by then
and properties having beon thus asoertained
samples OF the article forwarded to 10 OO
physicians, including all the leading practitioner
In the United States, for purposes OF experiment
circular, requesting a trial Of the preparation
ana report OF the result, accompanied eacl
specimen. 1000 of the most eminent medical me
in the Union promptly responded. Their opinion,
OF the article were unanimously favorable. Suoh
preparation, they said, had long been wanted b,
tho profession. as no reliance could be placed OF
the ordinary liquors of commerce; all of whicl
were more or less adulterated, and, therefore
unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar excel
formed ono of So Of
Sohnapps. together with an unalloyed characte
OF the alcoholic element, give it, in the estimation
OF the faculty, marked superiority over ever,
other dlfusiye stimulant = diurctic tonic an(
restorative.
These satisfactory credentials from professiona

OF the SchnapPs, as one OF the guarantees of it

the proprietor's autograph signature was attache,
to each label and cover. his name and that of til,
preparation were embossed on the bottles and tn,
corks were sealed with his private seal. No article
had ever been sold in this country under the nam,
or Schnapps prior to the introduction of Wolfe'
Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and tb,

trlct OF Now York during that year.
It might be supposed, py persons unacquaintet
with tho daring character OF the pirates who pre-
upon the reputation OF honorable merchants, b;
vending deleterious trash under their name tina
the projections 80 carefully thrown around these
Schnapps would have precluded the introduction,

The trade mark OF the proprietor has been stolen
the endorsement which his Schiedam Aromati,
Schnapps alone received from the medical pro
fession has been claimed by mendac acious humbugs
his labels an bottles have been initiated, his ad
vertisements paraphrased, his circulars copied
dispcsing OF the genuine contents of his bottles
nave filled them up with common gin, the mos
deleterious of all liquors. and thus made his name
an9 brand cover for poison.
Inc public, the medical profession and the sick
Tor whom the Schodam Aromatic Schnapps il
prescribed as remedy are equally Interested with
tho proprietor in the detection and suppression O
these nefarious practices. The genuine article
manufactured at the establishment Of the under

Complaints have been received from the leading
physlclans and families in the Southern States
OF tho sale of cheap limitations of the Schiedan
Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travel
