PErRIFIED FIsH.-We have obtained q
specimen of petrifaction in the shape of q
large petri6ed FISH, pike, which must have
been over three feet in length, and about Is
inches in circumference in the largest part
Of the body. 1t came from the bottom of the
Mississippi, WAS exhumed by the workmen
at Sycamore chain, some miles up river, and
presented to US. It is q very nice specimen
for the cabinet, although it would be hard
20 cook, and still harder to eat; the semsin-
der OF the fish is in fthe hands of severa
curiosity seekers, living in the neighborhood
of ,hs above mentioned chain.

NATIONAL HOTEL BURNED.

PoRT BYRON, Dec. 5, 1870.
ED. ARGUS ;-Onr little town was thrown
into quite q commotion on the evening OF
the Sd, ia consequence OF the burning Of
our National Hotel, which took FIRE from
defective tiue on the south gable. The
wind being in that direction the whole
building was soon wrapped in flames, which
communicated to the la. ge stables belonging
to the house, both of which were burned to
the ground. Mos, of the furniture was got
out of the house, though in . rather dam
aged condition. Mr.. Bell, the proprietor,
had an insurance of $4,000 on the house,
barn and furniture. The citizens manifest
great deal of sympathy for Mr.. Bell and
family in their great affection and loss.-
The loss Of our hotel ia most severely felt
by us, the more 80, as there is no prospect
OF its being rebuilt. s. l.. 8.

The REASON NHY.-The immediate cause
of premature fading or blanching of the
hair is an obstruction ofthe oil vessels which
afford the coloring matter. The remote
causes may be general i'll health, trouble of
mind, etc. Hence, in order to restore its
natural color and beauty the oil vessels
must be restored to their normal condition.
1t is on this principle that NATURES
HAIR RESTORATIVE is compounded,
and it has proved . complete success,
wherever faithfully applied. 1t is not .
poisonous dye, consequently the effect il
gradual, and In severe cases two or three
bottles are necessary to produce the desired
result. See advertisement.
