London, December 9. A little before the play of Barbarossa
began, on Friday last, at Covent Garden, a young lady of
fashion came into the King's box, with three daughters, of
about five years old, all at a birth, exactly of a size and
shape, and perfectly alike in features, there being no
knowing one from the other. . . The audience was so struck
with the singularity of the thing that they gave a great
applause; and the little creatures curtseying to it, made
their obeisance so exactly, all at once, that they seemed as
if one mind animated them all.
