Freak of a Fish.

In the window of a cigar store on Columbus avenue, New York, is to be seen a freak of nature that attracts much attention. It is a goldfish without any fin’on its back. Otherwise it is perfectly developed, and seems to suffer no inconvenience frpm the absence of this part of its anatomy. There is said to be but one other such specimen In the country, and it is a stuffed one in the Smithsonian Institution at Washington.
