BRIGHTON, Nov. 17.

The Prince of Vs' A Les, accompanied by General
Lord livren 'resat., kc. returned to the Pavilion be-
tween sit and seven o'clock on Friday evening.
B ill at the Castle, in honour of the signal vic-
tory obtained over the combined fleets of the enemy,
by Admiral Lord Viscount Netsosi, was attended on
Friday evening by all the tank, elegance, and beauty,
at present h le, and such a numerous assemblage
at so late a period of the season, was never remem-
bered. The company began to assemble by nine
o'clock, and by half past nine, between two and three
hundred persons had arrived, when forty couple
srooi up to join in the dance. 'I he Ball was opened
by Lady .lAS E and Captain Joe es, with
the pleasing air of Tb. Honrytrow,; and was continued
(in two sets) without intermission, until half past
ten, when the Pe itscs, attended by a large party of
Nobility, entered the room. Dancing, at the in-
stant, ceased; the darL;err fell back to the right
and left, making an opening for the PRINCE to
pass down the centre of the room, and the mu
sic struck up God sere the King! 'Pie PRINCE
having taken his station at the cpposite extre-
mity of the roam, the dance was resumed with ad-
ditional spirit and glee. The Nimee appeared in
good health and spirits, though the mention of
the immortal hero we have lost, gave occasionally
an appearance of sorrow to his expressive features.
The iNcx did not dace. The dresses of the
Lashes on this occasion were more superb and ex-
pensive than on any former public occasion at
Brightor. Diamonds were in the most brilliant
profusion ; and sparkling gems, of the most rich
and rare description, were in great abundance, the
radiance of which was only surpassed by the charms
of their lovely wearers. Amongst the Ladies pre-
sent were—
The N.loehlones. of Downihire, the lion Mrs. Butler, the
Duchew t 5 La Ptenne, lAA! Sarah James, and har turn ac-
complotol doighters, the ten Lad?, Tumour., I.3dr Dat-
eline, IN. Miss Morgans, and many others of the first fashion
a .Iheauly.
The most distinguished of the Gentlemen present
were—

—.
His Royal Higknets the "'gime of AValist, Geneial Lord
lliorclimson, Generals !likman and Grey, Colonels False .d
Tuner, and the Offi., rs of the King's Dragoon Guard., Malor
Bloomfield, and ,he Officers of the Royal Horse Artillery, Ate.
The only additional embellishment to the Ball-
room, indicative of the glorious event, was a trans-
parent painting at the North end of the room, which
WAS much better designed than executed. The paint-
ing represented the affirm between the Santisstuta
7 rtaid,da and the Varet.e. From the latter, the
fipett of Nation, under celestial escort, was seen
ascending to the realms of bliss Many Ladies wore
wreaths of laurel, and laurel and cypress intermix-
ed, affixed, with great elegance and taste, with dia-
mond pins, combs, and loops, to their head-dresses,
which had a very appropriate and pleasing effeet.
At midnight, the supper-rooms were thrown open.
The PSINCE retired, *hen the supper-rooms were
opened, as did the greater part of the Nobility in
His Royal klisrhness's suite. The tabie-cloths
removed, the following toast., Scc. were given:
—The Konc, God him /um ; The Priree of
W•xes. Both were rapturously given with three
times three; in which the Ladies, waving their hand-
kerchiefs, cheerfully joined. dhe next was, Ti the

C.. Pr. WRIGHT.

'llse father of Cart Wright, (who there is every
reason to helieve has been put to death by order of
rionapat te),has long been in E linhurgh. as Major and
Paymaster of the Garrison battalion. The moment he
yard his son hail fallen into Bonaparte': hands, he
le.p died of Lis life, and has never been tthsetved to
.oak of him without bursting into tears 1 Its son WAS
confidential friend of Sir Sidney Smils, and
ind-r that illustrious chief, incurred d.e inveteree
hatred of Bonaparte, by his heroic Acl,;evements in
the defence of Acre. flimaparte's last hope of rak-
ing the piece depended on a mine which he had lcd
up, in order to blow up the fimifications. But when
the mine was nearly ready to take delft, Captain
Wright, with a handful of men, tut his way through
the enemy, And demolished the mine. In this exploit
Ir. was severely wounded, and overwhelme 1 in the
whe,e his men left him, supposing him to
he dead. But Sir Sidoev, determined that hint
fiiend, dead or alive, should not fall into the hands
of the enemy, by a more vigorous salts., dug him nut
of the rubliish, and carried him off in triumph,
amidst the fire of the whole French army.
