Last Thursday evening, a superb ball was given at Concert-
Hall by General Hancock, at which was present his Excellency
Count D'Estaign, and a number of officers belonging to the
French fleet.--There were upwards of a hundred of the
principal ladies of the town present, who being richly and
elegantly dressed, added a most inchanting brilliancy to the
evening, and in the eyes of their countrymen, at least, gave
no bad specimen of American female grace and beauty!
