After sevr ml month reflection what title to
k'iyc it I introduced it to the tmcricau pub-
licunder the tide of Wolfe's Scliieflnni
AromaJi. elniaiM- Schiedam is
the name of the place hi Holland where the
gin 13 manufactured ; "aromatic" derives its
Same from the Italian Juniper berry with
which it fa flavored : and the word Schnapps
is the German for drink eoj;ue dram-
Wolfe's Swhtedam aromatic drink. Xo soon-
er had mv sr'.ninpps been introduced to the
American public and icceivcd with approba-
tion than tho liquor-mixeis of New York
HoPton and Philadelphia started in pursuit
with their mixod aid poisonous etufi; under
various names. In several instanced mv la-
befa ave been so perfectly imitated with on-
ly the addition of a few letters to plead a
tcchnicle avoidance of the law and so care-
fully prepared as to impose on careless pur-
chasers. I understand a larse quantity lias
