At the rrrwnt meeting of tbe Kx prsmens Assembly io Jacksonville, Florida, a tret to cola! of regard and appreciation for Superintendent Gil teepie as an accomplished, faithful and popular officer was presented by bis associate. Tbe following ac count of the happy occasion is taken from the 7m-L'nion of Jackson ville: One of tbe most interesting affairs connected with tbe Ezpreeamen's As sembly in this ctty during the past few dsys was the presentation to Mr. T. D. Gillespie, Superintendent of tbe Eastern Divisioo of the Southern Kiprens Company, of a magnificent gold watch and chain. The watch i a "Jergenseo" with a beautiful il luminated monogram. Handsomely en craved on tbe inside of the case is this inscription, "Presented to T. D. Gillespie, Ks-, by his friends in the Kastero Division of the Southern Kx press Company, February, 184." The affair was a surprise te Mr. Gillespie, who is held in high regard and esteem by not only his imme diate associates but by expressmen generally throughout the country who appreciate his ability and genial temperament. Tbe presentation was made by Colonel Whitfield, of Mississippi, one of the attorneys of the Southern Ex press Company. When Col. Whit field, in glowing term, referred to the long aod faithful service which had so endeared him to his associates and fellow officers of the company, Mr. Gillespie was visibly overcome with pleasurable emotion. At the conclusion of CoL Whit field's eloquent speech of presenta tion Mr. Gillespie gracefully re sponded in well turned sentences ex pressive of bis gratification at the kind words and deeds of bts too kiod friend.

Tbe ball of tbe Howard Relief Fire Engine Company, at Germ an ia nail but night, was a pleasant affair, aod was spparently most heartily enjoyed by all who were present.

At Smithvflle the highest Telocity reached by the wind was 41 miles per hour, and at Fort Macon 45, with light rains at both places. At Atlanta the. ve locity was 85. At Charlotte the f rainfall was heavy, footing up over 2 inches, with a wind velocity of 14 miles during the night and 80 yesterday morning. .

Tbe steamer North Stats, which left here for Georgia on Monday night, was expected to go out early yeaterday morning, but Capt. Padfiison decided to wait another day, as there was a heavy sea. The weather continued fine all day, however, with a light wind from the southeast, which kept the sea up. About dark the storm flag was run up, the signal officer saying he had in formation that a storm was coming from the sea, and in a short time it began and continued to increase in fury until about 2 o'clock yesterday morning, when it became simply terrible. Capt. Paddison, in a private communication to Messrs. Worth & Worth, says: "I think the waves ran some times eight feet high. Well, the only thing we could do was to try and hold out j against it, which we did. Sometimes the waves would break clear across the decks, and the fear I bad was that our guards would be lifted off. I think it was one of the grandest sights I ever saw, about 12 o'clock. There was a good deal of shipping in the harbor, and the rolling ot the ves sels, the flying of spray, the flashing of lightning and the roaring of thunder, com bined to make the scene one not soon to be forgotten by even those who make it a business to gi down to the sea in ships." There was no damage from the gale at SmithviHe. at other ponrrs. A special telegram to the Star tells of the terrible devastation caused by tbe cy clone in the neighborhood of Rockingham, Richmond county, where tbe killed were from fifteen to thirty and a large number of wounded. From Darlington. S. C, come very startling reports, which are pro bably greatly exaggerated. A private tele gram from Mr. J. T. Gil more to Messrs. Worth & Worth, says: "Storm here last night destroyed mill, stables and still. Tbe damage is two thousand dollars." This probably only refers to hi own individual loes, without reference to that of others. From various other points we hear of more or less damage from the gale. The first thing in order, yesterday morning, was an engine practice of abbot one hour. At 11 o'clock the company marched Into their hall, on Fourth street, "where quite a number of invited guests bad already as sembled. Mr. John Oldenbuttel acted'as master of ceremonies, and on the stand with him were His Honor, Mayor . Hall, Rev. F. W. E. Peschau, Capt. C. DV My ers, Chief of tbe Fire Department JUr. A. Adrian, Foreman of the Howard Relief Company; Mr. M. Rathjen, Assistant Fore matt, and Cept. EL W. Manning, of the W, fl. F.j E. , Comrny4 Mr. Oldenbuttel welcomed the compaay ta a few appropri ate remarks, whereupon the programme ar ranged for the occasion was carried out. This consisted of music from Pascucci's band which was followed by a vocal duet byMrsJno. Haar, Jr., and Mrs. F. C. Miller, one of the ladies being at the piano. The music was pronounced excellent. A fervent prayer was then offered up by Rev. Mr. Peschau, which was followed by a brief speech of congratulation from Mayor Hall, and music by the band. Capt. . Myers fol lowed with a neat speech. Then there was more sweet' music from Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Haar, which was followed by an ad dress from Rev. Mr. Peschau, which was pronounced by all to be a fine effort and as contributing greatly to the enioyment of the occasion. After other speeches, a song and chorus entitled "God Bless Our Fire men," composed byRev Mr. Peschau, was sung by Messrs. Jao. JHaar; Jr and F. C. Miller, accompanied by their ladies. The piece, which was dedicated to Mr. A. Adri an, was well sung, and its rendition much enjoyed. The further ceremonies of this happy oc casion consisted of the presentation of the music aforesaid to Mr. Adrian, to whom it was dedicated, Mr. Oldenbuttel doing the honors; the presentation of a silver speak ing trumpet to Mr. M. Rathjen, 1st Assis tant Foreman, and a similar one to Mr. F. C. Miller, 2ud Assistant, Mr. Oldenbuttel doing the honors in these instances also, after which the benediction was pro nounced. The next thing in order was the collation, which was spread in another part of the building, and to which ample jus tice was done. Altogether tbe celebration was of a char acter long to "be remembered by the noble firemen and their friends.

Mr. Martin estimates bis loss at iboat 20X ; nayere Ooarv. Reuben Thompson, colored, who was arrested on Monday evening, charged with breaking into the store of Mr. A. D. Ward, of Pender county, an account of which ap peared in our last issue, had a preliminary examination before Mayor Hall, yesterday morning. Mr. Ward was present in Court and testified that he keeps a store on Black River, in Pender county, and that the ac cused hsd been seen lurking about the neighborhood for a few days previous, and that on the day after the robbery he bad been seen on his wsy to this city; that he got lost aod was put in the right road again by a colored man, who stated that he was loaded down with bundles. Mr. Ward ful ly Identified the goods as his property. Officer C. H. Strode testified as to the arrest of Thompson, his attempt to bribe the colored man, Robinson, to hurry on and inform his family so that they could remove the goods, and as to the subsequent finding or the missing articles In various places of concealment about the house, many of them being between the beds and ped covering. Thompson himself was put upon the stand and did some talking. . In fact, he was as fluent of speech as a first class patent medicine vender, and beat the "ce ment' man "all hollow." Of course he proved very clearly to his own satisfaction that he was Innocent of the robbery and that be purchased the articles from another man. At the conclusion of his speech he was ordered to furnish bond in the sum of $100 for his appearance at the next term of the Criminal Court; whereupon he was hand cuffed and committed to the sheriff, who sent him to jail, as he was not able to fur nish the necessary security. , Thomas Morris, a young stranger, was arraigned on the charge, of coming under the ordinance against vagrancy. He has been writing letters and asking assistance from some of our business men, and repre senting himself as related to a prominent party la Charleston. 8ome suspicious cir cumstances In this connection led to his ar- neetlna; at tbe Exchange. There was a large meeting of members and business men generally at the Produce Exchange yesterday at 12.30 p. m., to meet Messrs. H. C. Stetson, J. A. Ashby and J. H. Dixon, the gentlemen who are getting up material for a history of the trade, com merce, and industrial interests generally of Wilmington. Mr. Stetson explained fully the object of the proposed publication, and. the price which was expected to be charged for it, etc. Mr. Dixon read an article prepared for the book in relation to our river and har bor. Mr. C. P. Mebano moved that a commit tee be appointed, of which the President of the Exchange should be one, to see what amount can be secured to publish and dis tribute the book. The committee was constituted as fol lows: The President, Col. Roger Moore, and Messrs. C. P, Mebane, G. J. Boney, R. W. Hicks, J. A. Springer and Chase. A committee of three, consisting of Messrs. Alfred Martin, B. F. Hall and H. C. McQueen, was appointed to revise the article on Naval Stores, &c. A committee was also appointed, con sisting of Messrs. A. H. .Greene, David G. Worth and Jas. Sprunt, to revise the article on Cotton, &c. A committee on Shipping and Com merce was appointed, consisting of Messrs. C. P. Mebane, E. Peschau and E. G. Bar ker. Mr. Btetson stated that they had met with much encouragement from the citi zens, who seemed to take a lively interest in the forthcoming work; and in this re spect we are glad to know that their senti ments are fully in accord with those of our business men. feb 21 tf PLEASE CALL AT HETNSBEBGER'S Live Book and Music Stores. i Quarterly fleetlnge.
