The flatBering encomiums which h-ve been pronounced on the young Lewicnow in this city, who have attained, at their tender age, such surprising musical nccoroplishrnenls, have not been loo extravagant. A phenomenon of another kind is announced in a late foreign paper, as having appeared on the horizon of Milan. This prodigy is a young lady, ten yars of age, Tvho is known by the name af Iphig.'m,, ad whoe extraordinary mrrnorv- excites Universal astonishment. The Iphige;.ia of Greece never inspired so much interest us this Iphigenia of Miian. She is thoroughly acquainted -with ancient histcry, 'and answers the questions put to her with intelligence and accuracy. Her father lias a list of thirty thousand ipieslions, all of which this little living dictionary answers with the utmost readiness. It i? to be hoped that the father my nv.i prove another Agamemnon, and sacrifice Lis ehiid to the desire of compressing the niaterinh of a folio into an octavo. JV. Y.
