A very fathionable party, met laft evening at
Bettiffon s Rooms, where Mrs: SPE MC SR, an ama-
teur, played and fang divinely. Among the com-
pany were—Lady C. PONSON BY, Mifs FITZROY,
Colonel PON SON BY, Mr. and Mrs, DUFF, &c.
The Public Breakfaft at Dandelion, on Wednef-
day tail, was attended by about 5o perfons. The
band belonging to the 52d regiment played
admirably. It is confidered as one of the fir il mili-
tary bands in the kingdom, and confifts of (even-
teen inftrumental performers.
The Lurd Nelfon packet.fet fail on Friday morn-
ing with 5o paffengers, and after beating about
within a few miles of Margate the call anchor in
the night, but filch was the violence of the wind,.
that the fdon parted cable, and fo perilous was
her fituation that the Captain felt alarmed. The
anxiety of the majority of the paffengers, who were
females, may be eafily imagined. The ditirefs of
thy veffel was vifible from the pier on Saturday
'morning, but the fea was fo boinerous that no
beats could go out to render any aifiaance.. Apro-
pot, the want of a life boat is much a felt' in this
harbour. The Nelfon came in yellerday morning.
at eleven o'clock, with her mainfail quite torn,
the women vowing they would never venture to
fea again.
The wind was fo violent on Friday, that feveral
vat's parted from their moorings, but the greatei
part of them, without any. material damage, got
into Ramfgate harbour.
