trict OF New York during that year.
1t might be supposed, py persons unacquainted
with the daring character of the pirates who prey
upon the reputation OF honorable merchants, by
vending deleterious trash under their name that
the projections carefully thrown around these
SchnappB would have precluded the introductions
and sale OF oounterfeits: They seem, however,
only to have stimulated the rapacity Of impoaters
The trade mark OF the proprietor has been stolen:
tho endorsement which his Schedam Aromatic
Schnapps alone received from tho medical pro-
fession has been claimed by mendacious humbugs;
his labels an bottles have been initiated, his ad :
vertisements paraphrased his circulars copied,
and, worse than all. dishonorable retailers after
dlsposng OF the genuine contents of his bottles.
have tiled them up with common Gn the most
deleterious of oil liquors. and thus made his name
and brand a cover for poison.
The public, the medical profession and the sick
Tor whom the Echiedam Aromatic Schnapps is
prescribed as remedy, are equally Interested with
these nefarious practices The genuine article,
manufactured at the establishment OF the under
signed. in Schiedam, Holland, is Distilled from a
barley Of the finest quality, and favored with an
essential extract of the berry Of the Italian
juniper, OF unequalled purity. BY process un-
known IN the preparation of any other liquor, it is
mcnt.
Complaints have been received from the leading
physicians and families in the Southern States,
OF the sale OF cheap limitations OF the Schedam
Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travel
crs, who in the habit of using it as an antidote
to the baneful Influence of unwholesome river
bottles ls frequently pe!ned off upon tho unwarv.
The agents of the undersigned have been requested
to institute inquiries on the subject, and to for
ward to him tho names of such parties as they
may ascertain to be engaged i'll the atrocOus
system of deception. In conclusion, the under
signed would say that he has produced from under
the hands of the most distinguished men of
science in America, proofs unanswcrable OF the
purity and medicinal excellence of the Schiedam
Aromatic Schuapps; 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 imita-
tOns that he has shown it to be the only LIQUOR in
the world that can bo uniformly depended upon
a. unadulturatcd that he has challenged nvesti-
gatlon, analysis, comparison, and experiment in
all Its forms; and from every ordeal the prepa-
ration which bears his name, seal and trade mark,
has come off triumphant. He, therefore, feels it q
duty he owes to his fcllow-citiZens generally, to
the medical profession and tho sick, to denounce
and expose the Char)atans who counterfeit these
evidences of identity, and he calls upon the press
and the public to aid him in his efforts to remedy
so great an evil.
The following letters and certificates, from the
leading physicians and chemists Of this city, will
prove to tho reader that all goods sold by the
undersigned are all they are represented to be.
