It was intended .that the steamer Xorth Stale should leave Smithville, for Georgia, yesterday morning, but when the time arrived which was fixed for her departure the approach of a cale was apparent and Capt. Paddison very wisely concluded to remain in the harbor. It would have been rough for he steamer last night on tho ocean, and bad she ventured out thero would probably have been but little of her left his morning. The Xorth Stale was at her wharf at Smithville at 7 o'clock s morning, where she will remain until tho wind and sea subsides. Tho Anniversary. In accordance with previous an nouncement the Howard Relief Fire Engine Co.. No. 1, celebrated its 28th anniversary to day. At 10 o'clock this morning the engine was taken out to the rear of the engine house and about an hour was devoted to practice, the water being taken from a hydrant in the yard and the hose led out to Dock street, tbencc to Fourth, op Fourth to Market street and up the latter street until 1.050 feet of hose j were reeled off. The engine did very well notwithstand ing the great distance of hose , through which the water was forced. The greatest force of steam used was 80 pounds to the inch. At 11 o'clock the company marched into the hall, where had already as- serabled a throng of beautiful ladies. prepared, and of which all partook with a nearty rcusn. Hanger being appeas ed and the appetite satisGed. the j party soon began to leave lor their several homes or different avocations, to meet again to-night at Germania Hall where many of them will indulge in the merry dance for a few happy hours. The occasion was throughout a com plete success and there was neither rude mirth nor unpleasant jar - to dis,- turb the innocent hour ot the celebra tion. The committee had' worked asssiduously and successfully in per leciing tne arrangements ana everv leamre oi me uay was a pleasant sur prise, for which they deserve much credit.
