London, Account of Polish dwarf now at Paris. M.Borwflasky,
who came over with the Countess of Humiecska, is twenty-two
years of age and but twenty-eight inches high: he is well
proportioned, and has nothing shocking about him: his eyes
are fine, and full of fire; his features agreeable, which
indicates the gaiety and sprightliness of his mind.
He enjoys a perfect state of health, drinks nothing but
water, eats little, sleeps well, and can bear a great deal
of fatigue: he dances well, and is very nimble, Nature has
refused nothing but size to this amiable creature; for which
she has made him ample amends by the beauties of his body
and mind. . . [4 more paras.]
