WOLFE'S SCHNAPPS.

We havo tasted a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps, a superlative tonic, diuretic, anti-dyspeptic, and invigorating cordial, and we can justly say that it may bo regarded by every enlightened friend of tem perance as a powerful auxiliary to the cause—as an exception both morally and medically to all other alcoholic liquors in existence. It in fact merits the honorary cognomen of "Temperance Gin" for reasons which we will shortly explain. In flavor it is not unpalatable, and is without any trace of impurity. It differs from every other kind of Holland gin (articles of largo consumption in the colony) in these important particulars. First, because it is flavoured, medicated and aromatised from the berry of the Italian Juniper instead of the Juniperus communis hitherto exclusively used. Second, because it is tinctured with the lighter, more exquisitely aromatic and medicinally diffusive of the two distinctive constituents of which every oil of juniper is now known to be composed. Thirdly, it differs from every other gin in tho new chemical process of its manufacture, by which its absolute purity and other unique qualities are invariably and infallibly maintained in a state of mellow per fection which even maturity cannot improve. We are told that at no time, in any coustry, has there been so appalling an increase of those peculiar and generally fatal diseases which have incontestably an alcoholic origin ; but in all those countries in which good wines and liquors are much cheaper than even the worst are in thi*, and where liquor licenses and restrictive laws are alike un known Buck diseases from that cause are of extremely rare occurrence. Bad liquors only create a vitiated appetite for inordinate and habitual indulgence, whilst those of the beat and purest' quality are proved to hold the first and highest position have a directly contrary tendency, producing a fastidious repugnance not only to inferior liquors, but also bo tho intemperate use of any ; and under this category we may 9afely class Wolfe's Schnapps. Doctors of medicine have sung the praises of Wolfe's Schnapps and will sing them again wherever it is introduced. One learned doctor has laid down that " Whilst the habitual use of alcoholic liquors, even in the most moderate amount, is likely, except in a few rare instances, to be rather injurious than beneficial, great benefit may be derived in the treatment of disease from the medicinal use of alcohol so pure in quality as to be de void of injurious ingredients." This, he goes on to say, has been fully and alone achieved in the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps. Another doctor, in Bpeaking of quantities to be taken, says that they vary according to the nature of the cases and the age and constitution of the patient, but it may be stated that for an adult from half to a teaspoonful will suffice, and to infants a wine glass-full, in hot water and superfine sugar is a pretty safe rule. We beg pardon—we mean a wine glass-full to the adult, and a tea spoonful to the infant. There should bo no mistake about this. There is no doubt that this pure spirit when once it receives a fair trial will become popular, and an article of great consumption here; and if it only succeeds in superseding many of the deleterious compounds sold under the name of spirits it will have a good effect. One of its attributes, and we might say its chief one, is that it will not intoxicate ; and, as such, is deserving of being ranked before the " cup that cheers but not inebriates." At the same time it must be borne in mind that it should be taken in moderate quantities. We would not be answerable for the man who would drink five bottles of it before breakfast, any more than we would back another running a race after consuming three dozen of ginger beer, half-a-dozen of soda-water, and two lemonades and brandy to wash the lot down. We recommend Wolfe's Schnapps to public attention. We observe that Messrs. JL. D. .Nathan and Co. are the agents in New Zea land.

A CHRONICLE.

Once—but no matter when — Their lived—no matter where — A man, whose name —but then I need not that declare. He—well, ho had been born, And so he was alive ; His age—l details scorn — Was somethhigty and five. He lived—how many years I truly can't decide ; But this one fact appears, He lived —until he died. " He died," I have averred, But cannot prove 'twas so. But that he was interred, At any rate, I know. I fancy he'd a son. I hear he had a wife :— Perhaps he'd more than one, I know not on my life ! But whether he was rich Or whether he was poor, Or neither —both —or which, I cannot say, I'm sure. I can't recall his name, Or what he used to do : But then —well, such is fame! 'Twill so serve me and you. And that is why I thus, About this unknown man Would fain create a fuss, To rescue, if I can, From dark oblivion's blow, Some record of his lot : But, ah, I do not know Who, where, when, why, or what!
