Last Thursday evening, a superb ball was given at Concert
Hall by General Hancock, at which was present, his
Excellency Count D'Estaing, and a number of officers
belonging to the French fleet. There were upwards of a 100
of the principal ladies of the town present, who being
richly and elegantly dressed, added a most inchanting
brilliancy to to the evening, and in the eyes of their
countrymen, at least, gave no bad specimen of American
female grace and Beauty!
