Mus 'CAL PH ENOMENOI4.—A gentleman of mufical
fcience and tafte, and upon whore veracity be can
place the utmoft reliance, has favunred us with the
following very curious particulars of a circumßance.
to which he himfelf, as well as many people of the
higheft refpeetability, have at various times been a
witnefs It is no lets
_fingular than true, that a
gentleman of fortune, in the Well of England, can
a&ually fag a duets; and, what is truly altonifhing,
he can reverfe an oftave afcending in one ciff, and
defcending in another at the fame moment. He fings
the treble and bafs of Svsvaws's beautiful Glee of
Sigh no more Ladies, in a very corral manner : it muft
be obferved, that he does not articulate the words ;
but at one and the fame time produces two diffinft
founds, which he can vary at pleafure, and which
referable an Oboe and a Balloon."

This gentleman can give no explanation of the
manner by which he produces two diftinO founds ;
it was by accident he difcovered that he poffcffed fo
fingular a faculty: it is different from ventriloquifin,
and he thinks cannot be attained by imitation, or any
artificial management of the organs of fpeech.
All Paris has been greatly alarmed by an accident
which happened to Mademoifelle AUBRY, at the firft
reprefentation of the new Ballet of illies, at the
Impel ial Academy of Mufic. Mademoifelle AUBRY
played the part of Minerva, and, at the moment when
the comes to prefide at the union of /Vie and the
chafe Penelope, from tome want of concert in the
machinery, the was precipitated upon the Rage from
the cloud in which the was defcending. The audi-
ence thought the was killed. She has, however, only
fuffered a fevere frafture, and Tome contufions, and
her life is not confidered in danger.

ted of having written another, an exprefi was feat
after his courier, in whole neckcloth a letter was found
to Bonaparte, to whom he had wrote many particu.
lars, which belonged only to the profeffion of a fpy.
This occafioned him to be fearched, and a letter was
found about him from Napoleon, wrote on the battle
of the 26th of December. which he defcribes as a
very fine day, but it coft him 25,000 !

Tan FIRST or Mitacn.—The cuftorn of the An-
cient Britons wearing leeks in their hats on the tft of
March, took its origin from the following circum.
fiance
" At the time when the Englith and Welch were
continually at war with each other, they had a
grand engagement on the &II of March, in what
year the writer cannot fay ; after great (laughter on
each tide, the General who headed the Britons, per-
ceiving the two armies were intermixed, and that it
was impoffible to diftinguith the one from the other,
he gave orders that every Welchman thould flick a
leek in his hat, that he might know his men, (the
battle took place in a field which abounded with wild
leeks). In a fhort time the whole army appeared with
a leek, and the General found that he had gained a
complete vitlory, and that the Britons had been de-
-1 tiroying one another for a long time. After this
•fignal advantage which the Welch gained, they
t never were defeated. To commemorate this glorious
day, (which, by the by, is St. David's), the Welch
make a point when out of Wales, to wear leeks."
DISTRIBUTION or PRIZR MoNIT.—The °reties,
