STATE NEWS.
ONE sofd dthessstrangest sphenomenai ever
witnessed along the shore of Lake Ontario
occurred near Sodas, on Friday last, says
the Toledo Blade. For three weeks pre-
vious' to last Friday the water OF the lake
had been unusually warm so warm, indeed,
tharvery many persons resorted thfther for
the purpose of bathing, remaining in the
water an houror more at a time without
experiencing sensations OF chilliness. On
Friday morning, however, a sudden change
occurred, the temperature OF the water
falling nearly twenty degrees in three
hoursC And now comes the strangest
part of the story. The fish, great and
small, as the cold Increased, seemed pos
sessed with a desire to etashore, and went
leaping and tumbllng against the banks in
hundreds and thousands. I.argequantities
were taken with spears and nets, and the
shores of the lake were lined with dead fish.
Whether the fishwere benumbed by the IT,
creasing coldness, and instinctively sought.
the shore where the water was of less depth,
let hesnaturalist say. The Lyons Republi-
can, says, the water of Lake Ontario is now
colder by, several degrees than it has been
y
for years at this season, and naturally ex-
cites considerable comment and discussion.
Mrs. WALLACE, of MERGERS Bottom, West
Virginia, says the Gallipolis Dispatch, last
week gave birth to a child having one
head and face, four arms, four legs and four
ears. The face presents very naturalap-
pearance; the head is large and somewhat
unshapely 1t has but one neck, but two
spinal columns.1 The union ceases at the
lower extremity of the breast bone, below
which there is q full development of the
abdomen, hip bones and dIegs in each. The
limbs, aud. feet are perfect, and the exter-
nal organs Of generation are those of. the
male-both being boys. We are not
sufficientlyI0I skilled in q anatomy
to give clear description of
this monstrosity, but the reader can form
a tolerable idea of it by placing two child
rem breast to breast and imagine a consol-
idation of the two into one from the lower
partofsthe breast bone up, the two necks.
two heads and two faces united into one.
Two ears occupy their natural places.
while the other two are on the back of the
head close together. This singular freak
OF nature is preserved in spirits, and we
doubt not aifaff and scientific de6sriptiono
OF 1t will appear in the medical Journals.
