DIVERSITY, THE TWO BROTHERS. IN a iTtthuicript, in one of the libraries at Paris, we are told that the count de Ligneville, and count de Autricourt.* twins, defcended from an ancient familv in Lorraine, refemblcd each other fo much, that when they put on the fame kind of clrefs, which they did now and then for amufement, their fer- vants couid not diftinguifli the one from the other- Their voice, gait and deportment was the fame, and thefe marks of rcfemblance were lb perfect, that they often threw their friends, and even their wives into the greateft embarraiTment, Being both captains of light horfe, the one would put himfelf at the head of the other's fqu ad r on ,w it tr¬ out the officers ever fufpecting the change. Count de Autricourt hav¬ ing committed fome crime, the count de Ligneville never fuffered his brother to go without accom¬ panying him, and the fear of feiz- ing the innocent inftead of the guilty, rendered the orders to ar- reft the former of no avail. One day count dc Ligneville fent for a barber, and after having fuffered him to {have one half of his beard, he pretended to have occafion to go into the next apartment, and putting his night gown upon his brother, who was concealed there, and tucking the doth which lie had about his neck under his chin, made him fit down in the place which he had juft quitted. The barber immediately refumed his operation, and was proceeding to finiih what he had begun, as he fuppofed, but to his great aftonifh- inent, he found that a new beard had fprung up. Not doubting that the pcrfon under his hands was the devil, he roaied out with terror, and funk down in a fwoon on the floor. Whilft they were en¬ deavoring to ca!l him to life,count de Autricourt retired again to the clofet, and count de Ligneville, who was half fhaved, returned to his former place. This was a ne"vV caule of furprifc to the poor bar¬ ber, who now imagined that, all he had feen was a dreani, and he could not be convinced of the truth till he beheld the two brothers togeth¬ er.—The fympathy that fubfifted between tlicfe two brothers was no lefs (insular than their reieinblance. r and Liverpool, a frejh fupply of Drugs & Medicines;% Which he offers for fale on better te»ms than they ever have been lold in this country, Amuhg luo'icb are the Jolhtuing articles ; 2 T • A.lum joo ib.

But what is flill more aftomming, they both often had the fame dreams.

When he had finifhed, he told them that fince they had confeffed their forefathers had about 3000 years ago borrowed of the forefa¬ thers of the Egyptians their jewels, &e* he had fent for them to know if thofe things had ever been r<e- turnedy or fatisfaction made for them : if not, he added, it was now high time payment fhould be made, and that he, being the po¬ litical father of that people, he was in duty bound to fee that they haid juftice done thfcm. The poor aftonifhed Jews flood filent and knew not what to fa?y, though they immediately faw thro' the drift of the avaricious goverm- or. He, after waiting forne tinne for an anfwer, difmifled them, biut ordered them again before him iin a few weeks, telling them that Hie gave them that time to deliberate and to fearch their records, and ffce whether or not they had ever lire- turned or made fatisfaction to tllie Egyptians for the jewels they h;ud borrowed.

A corpfe in the ftrand unowned, f.»ou drew a crowd ; among them came a well drefled, good looking young gentleman, who was curious to fee the dead man. He had no fooner made his way through the mob, fo as to get a full view of the corpfe, than he was (truck with amazement; he remained fix- ed, his countenance changed, and the tears began to flow down hi* cheeks. As fod» as fee cmM ww fowrtfeVifrfe*' ps to gain utterance, he exclaimed—" Oh5 God ! my poor uncle ! Is he gone ?—Well,'* faid he, with a dr^p ligli, " fo perifh my hopes ! I am happy, however, that I luckily paffed at this awful moment, to refcue his poor remains, and fee them decently inter¬ red." Accordingly, the forrowful youth called a coach ; and the charitable mob, who pitied the difconfolate nephew, ?/filled to put the corpfe in the coach ; where the pious young man foon [hipped the body, and de-firing to be fet down at a famous furgeon's very confeientioufly fold his pretended uncle for two guineas.-------Lot, Pup. * - A perfon went to confult a law¬ yer*, how he might fafely carry off " You cannot do it at 39 an heirefs. all, with fafety," faid the lawyer, " but I can tell you what you may do ; let her mount a horfe, and hold the bridle and whip ; do you then mount behind her, and you are fafe, for fhe runs away with you/' The lawyer was, however, fufficiently punifhed for his advice, when next day he found it was his own daughter that run away with his client. A gentleman, while walking in company with a lady, unfortunately made a mif-ftep an<l fell. The lady feeling for his lituation, kindly aflifted him in recovering his feet, obferving that (lie was extremely forry for hisfhuxpas ; to which our gallant angrily replied—« What's that you fay, madam, 'bout my fore paws ?" and immediately left her. -i___• NOTICE.
