Mr. James Dolan, of the steam yacht Onernofs Island, which put in here in dis tress a few days ago, made complaint yes terday morning to the effect that his room on the boat was entered, some time in the early part of Tuesday night, and robbed of ihe appearance of the Dart v showed very plainly that they had had a rough ex perience, lbeirbutfit8 being: decidedly unique and. variegated. The most striking feature of the costumes of the ladies was their hats, the brims of which extended about three feet from the crown and made them present quite a ludicrous appearance. Miss Fannie- Williams was fortunate enough to recover all of her jewelry and money and some clothes, her trunk haying washed ashore. I Messrs. D. M. Williams and. Thomas H McEoy, Jr., also saved or recovered their clothes, but the former lost a fine gold watch and chain. The rest of the party lost nearly everything, the ladies a large amount of jewelry, including two gold watches. . ... . j From conversations with several, we ga ther that the guests, with a few exceptions, had all retired by 3 A.M., at which time the storm had commenced in earnest, bit was in its iocipiency, as it afterwards proved . The two or three gentlemen who did.not retire at 2 o'clock became soon con vinced that the gale was to be of unusual force and severity, and woke some of their friends to enjoy the excitement. A little later several suggested that It would pro bably be as well to arouse all the guests, but others, including Mi1 Perry, the pro prietor, an old resident of the place, de clared that it was not necessary, as there would be no danger, and the matter was dropped. Between this and five o'clock many were aroused, by friends already up, as a matter of precaution; but few, if any, thought there would be any real danger, nor evn dreamt that the building would be swept away. Short ly before five o'clock, the change in the wind brought the water into the sound in an immense volume, and ihe distance between the floor of the hotel building and the water became Vapidly leas until it was even with it. Everybody was then aroused and soon collected on the first floor, but most all had dressed, under the impression that at the worst it would only be necessary to leave the building until the storm abated and the water went down, and hence neg lected to take any steps towards saving any even of their most precious articles. The necessity of leaving the building, and at once, soon became apparent, an endeavo W. Henry Congleton, a resident of Bean- fort and a fisherman by occupation. It is supposed he was lost io the same manner as was Mr. Hughes. All accounts agree in stating that every man worked bravely , and unhesitatingly towards rescuing those unable to helpthem selves, but we will not mention names where all were so conspicuous, well JsatisJ fled that those from Wilmington acted as became them,: although they do not now take any special credit to themselves.

Mr. Dolan interviewed John Clark in the guard bouse and: told him that he would not prosecute him if he would tell him where the articles were, but Jim per sistently denied knowing anything about them, and argued that this community and the people of the United States generally had somehow imbibed very peculiar and exceedingly erroneous ideaB as to bis moral character that he never yet had oeen guilty of a mean action and never expected to be.
