Company No. 1 Tlie Paraded pnd Fnfflne Trial The Supper, Toasts Speecbeii, &c., Ac. v The fifth anniversary of the Wilmington Steam Fire Engine Company No. 1, coming J on Sunday, tbe 22nd inst.,, 'was appropriate ly celebrated yesterday by a' parade and en- Koe triar in the afternoon, followed by supper at night. The trial of the engine took place on Princess street... The engine - was stationed at the deck and the pipemen at thecorner of Front and Princess, from whence. a stream was thrown with ease over the ' cupola of the New Hanover Bank. The engine proved herself to be in good order and behaved herself admirably. The mala feature of the occasion, how ever, was THE 6UFPJKK, . which came off at the Hall of the Company, corner or ourta and Princess Btreets. Capt. John Cowan presided and the. tables groaned under 'the weight 'of the nXaaifoldde!ecacleft, euftstantials and re freshments with which it was laden. The' supper, ot. course, ,was lLe recipient of ample jastieeand -was. hugely sjoyed, the members i of 'ithe' company and invited guests, at its conclusion, entering with be coming earnestness into the spirit of the oc casion, keeping time to the popping of corks and the clicking of glasses as were announced in their turn the following ' KEGULAR.

Body of an Unknown Han Found Browned.' - On Sunday afternoon, about half-past 2 o'clock, the body of an unknown- man was found floating in the river, opposite the ferry, and was towed by the ferrymen, who were first to discover the body, into tbe dock foot of Dock street. Coroner Hewlett was notified uml at 4 o'clock an inquest was held over the remaio? Thehridy "was well dressed in black cloth coat and pants and had on aa under-suit of coat, pasts and shirt.5 The face of the corpse was horribly disfigured, but enough was seen to render it pretty certain in the minds of the jury that it was that oL a white man. His pockets were perfectly empty and nothing could be found about his person to give the least clue to his identity. It Was at first thought that the body might be that of the sailor drowned off the Re becca Clyde a few days since, but a little re flection served to disabuse the minds of those present of this idea., .The body was not only dressed entirely different from a sailor, but it had to all appearances been in the water for several weeks. There was no evidence to show who the man was nor how he came to bis death.there being no indications of violence having been used. The jury, therefore, returned a verdict to the effect that deceased came to his death by accidental drowning. Yesterday it was reported that the body was believed to be that of a bright mulatto, by the name of Jqhn Brown, whom it was difficult to distinguish from a white man. Brown was a native of Raleigh, was a stone-mason by trade and bad been in the employ of Mr. P. Liuehan for the past three years, being recently employed on the Pee Dee Bridge. He left there about six weeks ago with the avowed intention of coming to Wilmington, having in his pockets at the time a considerable sum of money. - Since that time he has not been seen or heard of to Mr. Linehan's knowledge, although Mr. L. has been here and made inquiries about him. Mc . Linehan's description of the clothing worn by Brown when he left the Pee Dee Bridge agrees exactly with those f ound'on the drowned man alluded to above. The shirt worn by him opened at the back, wpich was the case with those worn by the. deceased.l Mr. Linehan also savs the boots Jvorn by Brown were rather long for him and turned up at tne toes, wnicnwas tne case with those worn by the drowned man. There, was -some talk of exhuming f the? body, - which was buried in the"-National' Cemetery on Sunday , afternoon, and insti-tutraga're-exara!natfon with the view of identifying it,- but no difinite actioain the matter, so far as we could ascertain,- had been taken up to late last evening.. - If the body is that of the missing Brown it is taken for granted that he must have acci dentally r f aHesT into theTTriver "and was drowned, or that be was foully dealt with. The Election Yeaterday. Tke Afpro. ' " prlatlona Defeated. The electon yesterday passed off very qufetlyj as was to be 'expected, there being no potitical question involved. Early in -the day it became evident that there was no chance for the -appropriations, and the final result was therefore, not surprising. A great many did not go to the polls, as the shortness otthe vote will 'indicate..1 The following is the result in the various Wards for and against the Donation of $4,000 to the Cape Fear 'Agricultural Association and the .Subscription;: of Ifi&OOO" to the special stock of the SeaSideJ5ailWfty:.Y - riBSTWARDj, -i't-,'- For Donation; 32 A&mst - ' , , , For Subscription.-... . . . . 48 .Against " '' 200 : SECOKD WARD.- For Donation ... .f ......

The house on the corner of McRae and Walnut streets, occupied by a colored fami- ' ly,-was set on fire Sunday night, but the flames were fortunately discovered in lime to prevent serious damage.' The Incendi ary had dug a hole under the side of the house, in which combustible material was placed so that the fire' would communicate with the weatherboarding. ' It was just get ting' undejr way. good, howeypr, when some one passing saw the flames and extinguished them. t ,. . , . . , -. ;. SUng'Snote. .
