We tab the following from the columns oE the Sydney Morning Herald-.-'la these days when alcoholic liquors are so largely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether their systems are not being gradually impaired by adulteration, it is weir that one, at least of the popular bevengesof the period is reliable as pure—that is; Wolfe's Aromatic''Schiedam,' Schnapvs, After making reasonable deductions from the varied and niauy active and nufcralising virtues it is said to possess, it is something tobe assured by physicians and others of the scientific, cogaoscenti that we have in this article a genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity, and uudor ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords a beneficial- stimulus to the animal functions, and even taken in exoess leaves but a minimum of the inevitable evils of abuse. The fact that in the latter respect it is incomparably superior to the mass of other liquors of a like class is attributed to the entire absenco of fusel oil; its palatableness, its tonic properties, and its effect in increasing the vital energy may be traccd to tho purity of its main constituent. It differs from other Hollands gin, the produce of juniper communis, the schnapps being made from the Italian jumper, which gives a fine aromatic liquor: If it is noccssary in the interests of the public to denouticc the too common practice of manufacturin" noxious compounds as wines and spirits, it seems only just to point to .this meritorious exception.'' A Yictorian contemporary says it is reported that the celebrated Pere Hyacinth# and the Rev. Henry Ward Becetor will shortly visit these I colonies.
