Analysis of the Massachusetts State Assayer, January 25. 1858. When evaporated through clean linen it left no oil or offensive matter. In every res pect it is a PUKE spirituous liquor. The oil which gives to this Brandy its flavor and aro | ma. is wholly unlike fusil, or grain oil. Its ; odor partakes of both the fruit and oil of grapes With acids, it produces ethers of a i high fragrance. The substitution of this j Brandy for Cognac Brandy will do away with i the manufacture of fictitious spirits, sold un ) der this name both at home and abroad. Respectfully, A A. Ilayes. M D., Assayer to State Mass., IG. Boyleston St. By the same, in 1864. I have analyzed " L Lyons' Pure Catawba Brandy," with reference to its composition and character, being the same as that pro ! duced in past years. A sample taken from | ten casks afforded the same results with re I gard to purity; a slightly increased amoaut j of the principle on which its flavor depends I was determined by comparison with former samples. The indications of analysis show that this Brandy is produced by the same process as most of the imported Brandy. Respecfully, A. A. IIAYES M D. State Assayer.

BUFFALO, Jan 25 —Tbe American Ho tel is on fire, and there is no prospect of saving the building as the wind is blowing a gale from the west and it is snowing fu riously. The thermometer stands at 8 de grees above zero, which, with the wind and a driving snow storm, makes it almost im possible for the firemen to work their engines. The loss will be very heavy, as I there are a number of stores already in ruins. The hotel property is believed to be fully insured, and the landlord of the Americau has 814,000 insurance on the i furniture. BUFFALO, Jan. 25. —The fire was arrest ed this afternoon, after the blowing up of the building on Main street. It was stop ped also in the rear of Pearl street. This evening the flames broke out again in Buliytnore's buildings. The fire depart ment are working at every disadvantage, the weather being intensely cold, with a violent wind and driving snow, freezing the hose and clogging the engines- The following are among the sufferers by the conflagration : The fire caught in Diehl's restaurant, and extended to Van sciver's battery, Janner's drug store, A. S. Schriver's shoe store, and Paul Bunyon's confectionary store; thence it spread to the American Hotel, entirely destroying that building, together with the American Hall, in its rear, and the following stores on the ground floor: Rosenaw & Brothers, dealers in fancy goods; Hostetters & Straus, dry goods; Lewis A Girshopper, dry gooods, and Barthmer's barber shop. The fire then communicated to the buildings adjoining the hotel, occupied by Mr. Volger dealer in German goods, Mr. Cpson, a photographer, Mr. Knight, deal er in liquors, and Bullymore's meat stand. Tbe other buildings, at the corner of Court street, were damaged more or less. They were occupied by Mr. Rasom, a hatter, the Buffalo Savings' Bank, and Mr. Gage, a New Series—Vol. XIX. No. 13. grocer. It is feared that those buildings will be destroyed to night, It is reported that some persons were injured by the falling walls, but amid the confusion it is impossible to ascertain the facts. James Sid way, Harry Tifft, and Harry Gillet, belonging to the Taylor Hose, were killed. The loss will not fall short of half a mil lion dollars. A large number of persons, who occupied upper stories of the burned building-, lost ali their property. The fire is still burning. ! ———— FORWARDING, COMMISSION and Produce Business. undersigned begs leave to return 1. thanks to the farmers of Mifflin county | for the patronage heretofore extended to him in the above business, and also to inform them that he ha* taken as co partners in said j business, JOHN D.
