Short announcement in the feuilleton at the foot of p. 3: in R. Charles's (Charles Rouy's) salon of acoustic physics, Palais du Tribunat, galerie des Bons-Enfans no. 127, first floor, one may see every day from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. the busts of Calchas, Trophonius, the Pythia of Delphi and the Erythraean Sibyl, which converse among themselves and with the spectators in nine languages, reason on history and mythology, see, answer and sing; one may also enjoy the experiment of the three invisible persons who seem to live inside a glass globe suspended in the middle of the salon and isolated from all communication. Full transcription and Italian translation.
