Paris, November 22.  There is a girl now upon our theatre
who is about twenty one years of age, seven of which she
served in the regiment of Belfunce. She killed one of her
comrades in a duel, which affair she got the better of; but
in a quarrel since she was wounded herself, which occasioned
the discovery of her sex. She has been presented at Court,
and it is said she has had a small place given her in the
King's stables.
