WASHINGTON, February 3.-In tho debat on the whiskey tax last night, Schenck, th Chairman of the Ways and Means Cammi tee, said there were a parcel of speculatoi throughout tho country trying to kill th whiskey market, by circulating a story thi the Ways and Means Committee, or son member of the House, would propose to ii crease tho tax on whiskey, or perhaps put back to its old rate. Ho would say that ; far o9 the Ways and Means Committee we concerned, no snob proposition had been i would bo entertained. He hoped the would be no tinkering by the House of th part of tho bill. The joint resolution for an amendment the Constitution, establishing universal si frage, ..which was adopted by the Ho uso Representatives on Saturday last, reads follows: .

CONCLUDED. "Is it quito necessary that. Fortescue should bo whiskerless?" 1 asked, faintly. "Why, judge for yourself; how would a powdered wig look with-them? The worst of is," she added, "that when I under? took the-the part of Maria, it was with the supposition that you would be tho Fortes? cue " Those who are unacquainted with "The Belle of Penzance," must be told that For? tescue is the lover of Maria, and several half-romping, half-amorous scenes aro en? acted between them; knowing this, if they bad known how Ada hesitated, and seen | how she blushed as she spoke, they would not wonder that my breath came short, and a siuging arose in my ears. My left baud closed upon tho fingers which were forming that bridge; my right arm stole uround her form; I felt intoxicated by tbo magnetic halo which floated about the air. "Take care!" she said; "I cannot make my stroke if you como so close." I knew there was such a thing as throw? ing away a race by making the running too eurly. "Hit your own b-b-b-ball iu tho exact centre, aud rather high," I stammered, "and you-you would not like O'Bri-that is, any other fellow to-to take that part, in fact." "I declare I won't answer you!" she cried. "Of course, I know you, and never saw most of the others before, aud such things make all the difference, you kuow. To be kissed, even in make-believe, by a man ono has seen for the firbt time a week before, mukes ouo feel nervous; but there!" Ecstasy! she classed O'Brian with the men "she had only known for a week!" Then sho had not noticed him at all those parties. And she had noticed and remembered me. "Ob, that you knew me still better! Ob, that it was not make-believe! Let us re hearse our parts?" "Where is tho use," sho murmured, "if you will not make a small sacrifice?" And she looked so deliciously shy aud couseious, that E cried in rapture: "I'll do it!" "What! part with those?" and she laid a finger moro beautiful than Aurora's on ono of my whiskers. "Yes." "Yon must give mc ono us a memouto. Cot up; there's some ono coming!" It was Miss Winton and Capt. Seymour, who came just in timo to prevent a formal oller. 1 went off to my bed-room, locked tho door, opened my dressing-case, took out scissors and razor, aud began tho dread? ful task. Infatuated, innd that I was, I inserted tho expanded points of tho fatal shears, gavo a convulsivo clip, and in half a minute the carefully tended growth of years fell to tho dressing-table. I cannot bear to recall how I looked ut that moment. As quickly as it was possible, I cut off tho companion whisker, and then shaved my checks clean. On my way down stairs, I met Sir Thomas, who stopped, stared and asked my name. Ho did not recognize me. Young Winton, who was always late, was break? fasting when I entered tho morning-room. Ho dropped a cup of coffee over his knees, and nearly choked. Leaving him in his misery, I encountered a young lady visitor, who crammed ber pockot handkerchief into her mouth, and fled. But if yon would bo tedious to recount the effect 1 produced upon each individual j member of tbo household. All, oven tho fuithieiss Ada, laughed at my uppearanuo, except O'Brian, who looked upon my trp.ns I formation from a purely dramatic point of viow. Others were divided as to whether 1 i most resembled a plucked fowl or a recently shorn sheep; bat the veritable amateur said, "Sure he will make au elegant For? tescue," aud stuck to that view of tho question. Tho company soon got used to tho altera tion, and the dramatic business now went us smoothly ns a hand passed over my checks. 1 had the intoxicating privilege, the tantalizing element iu which was tem? pered my hope, of making second-hand love to Ada in daily rehearsals, till at last the , day of positive performance arrived. We all knew our parts; but whether we acted them well or not, it is dillicult to judge; our audience was bound in common politeness to bo pleased, and the flattering applause and profuse congratulations we re? ceived cannot bo counted for much. At auy rate, everybody seemed delighted, and | thc whole affair waa voted a success. When a fete w hich had cost sonni time-, thought and labor in its preparation, is over, a heavy weariness ami depression is apt to weigh upon tho principal actors, and this, I believe, was tho case with tho ma? jority of tho company assembled at Winton Half. But 1 felt nothing of this. What were private theatricals or balls, past of future, to me? Means to an end, one end-Ada. How could my mind bc cloudy' if she smiled upon me? How feel depressed when such hopes elevated rae? On the morning following the perform? ance, I awoke early with a firm determina? tion to turn mimic courtship into earnest, and force a plain yes or no from her that very day. To lie in bed with such a prickle in tho pillow was quite impossible, so I got up, dressed and went for a walk. On pass? ing through tho garden on my way back to breakfast, I became aware that some ono else was also in high spirits, for a well known voico behind tho shrubbery was siuging "The Pigs in tho Morning," and on turning the corner of a path which brought mo into a little open dell sacred to rhodo? dendrons, I came upon O'Brian, with his hat stuck on tho back of his head, executing a pas seal to a vocal accompaniment. "Ah !" he cried on seeing me, "sure you havo caught mo making a fool of myself. But it is a good thing my mother's only sou has doue for me this fine morning. Con? gratulate me, my boy!" "Certainly," said I, fccliuga little sicklv. "What on?" "I am going to be married to the pretti? est little angel that ever wore boots and had a nice little sum all at her own disposition in the bargain. Whoop!" It was too tnm; he had stolen a march upon me. I left Winton two hours after? wards. Thank you; yes, my whiskers aro gradu? ally recovering, and I expect to bo able to walk out hy daylight in a month or S?). At present, they are in tho blacking-brush stage. - Chambers' Journal.

Office of Udolpho Wolle, SOLI: IMPOST, OF TIII: SCMEDAM AROMATIC .SCHNAITS "2 BEAVEB STREET, NEW YORK, NOV. 3, '08. To the People of Ike Southern Slates. When tho puro medicinal restorative, now KO widely known as Wolfe's SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS, was introduced into tho world, under tho endorse? ment of 1.000 loading members of the medical pro? fession, some twenty years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it could not wholly escapo tho ponalty attached to new and useful preparations. Ho, therefore, endeavored to invest it with the strongest possible safeguard against counterfeit? ers, and to rondcr all attempts lo pirate it difficult and dangerous. It was submitted to distinguish? ed chemists for analysis, and pronounced by them tho purest spirit ever manufactured. Its purity and properties having bm n tints ascertained, samples of tho article wore forwarded to 10,000 ph.Tscians, including nil tho lending practitioners in tho United states, for purposes of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of tho preparation and a report of tho result, accompanied each specimen. 4,000 of thc most eminent medical men in tho Union promptly responded. Their opinions of tho articlo were unanimously favorable. Such a preparation, they said, had long been wanted hy? the profession, as no rclianco could bu placod on tho ordinary liquors of commorco; all of which wore moro or less adulterated, and, therefore, unlit for medical purposes. Tho peculiar excel leneo and strength of tho oil of juniper, which formed one of tho principal ingredients of tho Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of tho alcoholic dumont, give it, in tho estimation of tho faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimulant HS a diuretic, tonic and restorative. Thoso satisfactory credenza!* from professional men of tho highest rank wore published in * condensad form, and enclosed with each bottlo ol the Schnapps, as one of tho guarantees of its genuineness. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted; a patent was obtained tor tho article, thc label was copyrighted, a/<ic simile of tho proprietor's autograph signature waa attaehed to each label and cover, his name and that of tho preparation wore embossed on tho bottles, and the corks were scaled with his private seal. No article had over been auld in this country under the name of Schnapps prior to tho introduction of Wolfe's 8ohiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and tho label was deposited, an his tradu mark, in tho United Htatos District Court fur the Southern Dio trict of Now York during that year. It might bo supposed, oy persons unacquainted with tho daring character of tho pirate? who prey upon the reputation of honorable merchants, l>y vending deleterious ti inh under their name, that tho protections so carefully thrown around these Schnapps would have precluded thc introductions and salo of counterfeits. They seem, however, only to have stimulated tko rapacity of impostors. The trade marl; of tho proprietor luis been stolen: tho endorsement which his Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from tho medical pro fuesioii lias bovnclaiuiod by moudadous humbugs; his labels au bottles have been imitated, his ad? vertisements paraphrased, Iiis circula! H copied, and, worse than all, dishonorable retailers, after disposing of tho genuine contents ul nig bottles, have tilled them up with common ghi, the mott deleterious of all liquors, aie! thus made his name ami brand a cover for poison. The public, the medical profession and the si; k, i for whom tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is proscribed RM n remedy, are canally interested with j tho proprietor in thc dotcclion'and suppression ol j these nefarious practices. The genuine article, manufactured at tho establishment of tho undor ? signed, iu Schiedam, Holland, \A distilled (rom a ; b?rley of tho finost quality, and flavored with au [essential i struct Of thc berry of tho Italian juniper, of unequalled purity. By a process un? known in the preparatiou of any other liquor, it U freed from every acrimonious and corrosive ele? ment. Complaints have been received from thc leading physicians and families in the Southern states, of thc salo of cheap imitations ot the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps m those markets; and travel? ers, who are in the habit of using it as an antidote I to tho baneful influence of unwholesome rivei water, testify that cheap gin, put up in Schiedan bottles, in frequently palmed off upon the unwary The agents of the undersigned have been requested tn instituto inquiries on the subject, and to for ward to him the names of such parties as tho; may ascertain to be engagrd in the atrocioui system of deception. In conclusion, the under signed would s ty that he bas produced, from node the bands of the most distinguished men o science in America, proofs unanswerable of tlc purity and medicinal excellence of tho Schiedan Aromatic Schnapps; that he has expended mau; thousand dollars in surrounding it with guarantee and safeguards, which ho designed should protcc tho public and himself against fraudulent imita tions; that he lias shown it to be thc otily liquor ii tho world that can bo uniformly depended upoi as nnadultnratod; that ho has challenged investi galion, analysis, comparison, and experiment i all its forms: and from every ordeal tho prepa ration which beare his name, seal and trade marl has como off triumphant.
