We are much concerned to (late a piece of in telligence that reached us juft as our Paper was putting to prefs, which prevents our making all the enquiries we could have wilhed, to obtain more of the particulars. The letters which bring the news to which we allude were this day received by a Mercantile Houle in the City, from their eorrefpondents at Briftol, whence they were difpatched yefterday, after the Poft was gone, and ftate, that the Eliza fchooner bad juft arrived in King•road from Ja- maica, after a quick paffage ; and had brought the unpleafant intelligence of a slefeent having been made on that itland by the Spaniards from Cuba, who had been joined by another body, con fifting of both French and Spaniards, from Les Cayes. This news on the face of it appears alarming; but it may turn out to be Come little piratical ex pedition. Should it prove otherwife, what are we to think of the good faith of our late enenites, who, urge us to make bane in abandoning thofe poffeffions, which nal remain in our hands, of the fruits of our conquells t At all events, we may prefume a proper enquiry into this affair will be made before we give up any more of them. We this day received Paris journals to the 6th innant, but their contents are not of much impor tance. Letters from Conflantinople of the xoth ult. mention Comething of the negotiations that have been going on for Come time, to bring about tome kind of alliance between the Porte and this Country, but nate that the former has not yet de clared Well on the fubje&. The intelligence from Egypt is vague and con tradiaory, but all the accounts agree in pointing out the fituation of affairs is that country as un- favourable to the Porte. The Em P ans. of GERMANY has not, it appears, ratified the definitive Coedefiarn of the Deputation of the Empire ; but in a Decree of Imperial Com miffion tranfmitted to the dieature of the Diet on the 33d ult. he contents to its being fuhmitted to the deliberation of the Diet, in order that after removing the difficulties which (till prevent its receiving the Imperial &nein!), the final and legal termination of the bufinefs of the Indemnities may be accelerated as much as poffible. At the thirty-fifth Sitting of the Deputation the vote of Brandenburg was given (to which thole of Ba varia, HeiTe Cad, and Wirtemberg were nearly atlimilated) by which his PrulEan Majeffy de• claret his readinefs to contribute to the furtherance of the interefts of the Grand Duke of Tufcany, but bc objees to any clank of refcrve being infected in the general Gcssckfmon refpeeing that fubjee:— As to the propofition made by the Emperor for increafing the number of Catholic votes, his Pruf flan Majefly hints that he may not, perhaps, at a faint* period, oppofc [nth a meafure, but be sloes not think it at prefent neceliary.

HAR m47Bsrrs BALL AT FROGMORB. On Thurfday Her Msjssry gave a grand Ball to about one hundred perfuns of rank and diftinc tion at Frogmore. They were principally thole noble families we noticed at the Juvenile Fete given to the Princefs CHARLOTTR of Wales and her young friends Taft Saturday. This Enter tainment was likewife under the tafteful manage ment of the Princefs ELizaseru. The noble vifttors began to arrive about fix o'clock. Her Royal Highnefs the Princefs ELIZABETH, attended by her Royal filter, MARY, arrived about feven o'clock, to fee that all the arrangements had been made, agreeably to the dire&ions of the Princefs ELizantre. About half pail (even o'clock their Maim's', the reft of the Princeffes, the Princef& SOPHIA of Gloucefter, and their attendants, ar rived, and in a few minutes after the dancing commenced, in the fame room where the Children's Ball took place on Saturday. The principal or naments remained. The firft dance led off was Neil Cow, by the Earl of Mount Edgcumbe and Printers Ausnfta Marquis of Lorne - Prince& Sophia Lord Craven Prineefs Mary Lord Ficskards Penedo Amdia Lord Templeton - Primers Sophia of Gloneefter Lord John Campbell - Lady Charlotte jenkinfoa Colonel Fremantle .

Harris Captain Grey, of the Navy Mils Craven Colonel Dc row - Mils Somerville. The fecond dance was Speed ebe Plough, when the Marquis of Loans and Lord Mount. Evccuuss charged partners . After the third dance, The Ille of SAN, the fet was increafed to fifteen couple. The additional Gen tlemen were Naval Officers. The dancing was kept up with great fpirit until half after ten o'clock. when the dancers began to flag, fo much fo, as to call in ►he aid of Lady MARY BINTINCII, (who is generally the life and foul of almoa every party). Her Ladyfhip called for the favourite dance of Sir David Hunter Blair. The fceue was once more re-animated, and kept up till a quarter after eleven o'clock, when fupper being announced, the Ball concluded. Their hfaysyrias were never obferved to be in better health and fpirits. The Kula was in very good fphits. Hearing that Colonel FILEEMANTLI had declined dancing. his MAJESTY went up to him and faid—" You will not refute me if I find you a partner ;" at the fame time taking Lady C. Cscut (the daughter of the Marquis of Sat's. 'Lily) by the hand, his Mai ssry prefented her to him. The Colonel, with great gallantry and po. litenefs, accepted the offer, and went down tht fecond dance. During the dancing the company was refrefbed with coffee, tea, kmonade, twelfth cake. ac.— The Palliating danced nearly the •whole of the evening, and which was kept up with very great fpirit ; they did not flop above two minutes be tween each dance, fo that the wind inkiument Or. formers were nearly exhaufted. Soon after the dancing ceafed. their Mayarrtes and the company retired to an adjoining- room. where a molt fumptuons cold collation was pro vided, and plates laid fur toy. A deffert.sonfifting of all the luxuries the Royal Hot•honfe could produce, was placed at the fides and each end of the tables, and a large twelfth cake in the centre—here were reprefented in miniature, the ancient Turrets of Windfor Caale difplayiog the Royal Banner, and Medallions o f their AU j IST I s were fufpended on each fide. About half pall twelve o'clock their Mar esries, the Paiscass as, and the Princefs Sort( la of Gum c errs', left Frognwre for Windfor, and before one o'clock the comiany bad all departed. His Majasfr and moll of the Noblemen, were dreffed in the Wiadfor uniform. Her Mar 'STY MIS dreffed in araw coloured Patin. All the Princefes were dreffed in white, except the Princefs Etna 111TH, who was dreffed in black velvet, made in the Spanifh ayle.—Feathers and the hair braided up with pearls, were the prevailing ornaments of the head amonga the Ladies. The Gows and an excellent band from Lando* were feated in the Colonade, to play the dances.

It rained in torrents, and the cornpany who came in it were confequently obliged to walk to Windfor. This was the only cafe in .which there was any drawback upon the pleafure of the night. Except in this fingle inilanee, there was not a fingle heart that felt the leap alloy. Wind tor was never more crowded with company, nor was curiofity ever more iirongly excited upon any fimilar occafion, but thp dreadful inclemency of the night prevented thoufands hom Pecking a view of the company as they alighted from their car riages.
