FIRE-PROOF PAIHT

Fayetteville, Nov 29, JS51. tf
Blake's Patent Fire-Prcof Paint.
The durability of this most valuable and ex
tracrdjiiry substance is such that it has only ar
rived at its hest and most permanent state when
all ordinary Paints begin to turn back to powder
and rub or wash off". It is applied like ordinary
Paint, and in a few months becomes a perfect
stone v hich resists both fire and weather. Time
seems to have no influence except to make it ad
here closer and form a more perfect state.
LOOK OUT FOR FRAUD.
Thi article has become so popular that many
unprincipled persons who have found beds vfj
rotten-stone, unformed red sand-stone, or any
minerals which resemble the genuine article in
color, fiC, have published that they have found
beds of "Fire-proof Paint," w hich (without wait
ing to test their properties) they offer to the
public for sale, and state that they are superior
to everything, whereas none of them have been
got up more than two years, and many of them
not yet two months. I hate the statement of
more than 20 men of the highest standing in the
vicinity of the Mines, who have seen and some
of them used these counterfeit stuffs, which says
there has been such a complete failure in all the
different articles got up and offered for sale there
as "Fire-proof Paints," except mine, that mine
only is considered worth using. Beside'sall this.
I have a patent upon the genuine-article "vhich
has been submitted to some of the most able
referees in the country, as also to the Hon. Danl
Webster, all of whom decided in the most ex
plicit terms that it was valid, and all persons
manufacturing, selling or using thi article, un
less obtained of me, would be liable tome lor
damages.
Every person therefore to be safe, should see
that my brand is on every package; for should
they purchase any substance which will make
the genuine"Fire-proof Paint,r (not of my manu
facture) they become liable to a prosecution for
infringement of my Patent, and if they purchase
a useless article, they of course lose their
moner.

A Nut for the Geologists. Hiram
De Witt, of this town, who has recently
returned from" California, brought with
him a piece of the auriferous quartz rock,
of about the size of a man's fist. On
Thanksgiving day, it was brought out for
exhibition- to a friend, when it accidentally
dropped upon the floor, and split open.
Near the centre of the mass, was discover
ed, firmly imbedded in the quartz and
slightly corroded, a cut iron nail of the
size of a six-penny nail. It was entirely
straight, and had a perfect head." By
whom was that pail made? At what pe
riod was it planted in the yet uncrystaliz
ed quartz? How came it in California?
If the head of that nail could talk, we
should know something more of American
history than we are ever likely to know.
