To be seen, at the house of Mr. Edward Willet, at White-
hall, a creature, called, a Japanese, of about 2 feet high,
his body resembling a human body in all parts except the
feet and tail:  He walks upright, and performs various
actions to admiration; such as walking upon a line, hanging
and swinging under it, exercising the firelock, dances to
any tune, and sung other things too tedious to mention . . .
Prince, one shilling for each grown person; children, nine
pence.
