Wiimineton- Snbstantlal Aid Extended Gratl--i tnde Evinced by tbe People 1m- preeloh of tbe Vleltore, : Mayor Hall, Rev. Mr. Lewis and Alder man Boney, who went as a committee from this city to Charleston to tender the aid of our citizens to the sufferers in that city re turned yestei day morning. Mayor Hall, who "was interviewed . yesterday, gave us his impressions of the visit. He says that the committee arrived ; id Charleston j ust before sunrise Friday mornings There were no indications -of the earthquake' around the Northeastern'Depot, except the absence of the : usual number of hacks and om&rf buses,- the houses in that neighborhood be ing generally of wood,, which appeared to have escaped serious damage, all over the city. . The indications, howeverrr Mayor Hall says, 7 increased, and when the party reached the Charleston Hotel, the entire sidewalk was. found filled with bricks and mortar from the upper portion of the por tico of that building. After breakfast at the hotel the commit tee ordered a carriage and started on a tour of inspection, which is best' described in Mayor 'Hall's .own words ; Going : down Meeting street the signs of destruction in creased at every step until ; we came to Broad, where the view was appalling. On our right the Court House was badly rent in many places, trom top to bottom. Op posite to this was the Police Station, a building as large as our City Hall without the Opera House annex, completely demol ished. Directly opposite this, on the east, is St. Michael's Church, apparently ruined, its famed , steeple sadly ouof plumb and threatening every - moment to fall. - It is very doubtful if it can ever be repaired. Going down Broad street every building showed more or less signs of damage. The front of the News -and ; Courier building is badly damaged. Turning down East; Bay, and all around the Battery to West Bay, the destruction I may say was comv plete. Those magnificent and historic hpnses on East Bay, the most aristocratic in the city, were utterly ruined. Every brick house there I take to be worthless, except the old material contained in them. Passing around the Battery, the same scene of destruction met our eyes everywhere. Going up 'King street,, now and then a brick house, notable among which was the Williams house, would be seen apparently undamaged; but we heard they all suffered seriously inside. It was with difficulty that our driver could pick his way through the debris-covered streets. Going down on East Bay to enquire af ter friends and deliver letters, seme of our delegation heard heart-rending accounts from different ladiea whose experience moat have been terrible. We were then shown where the waters were forced through the earth, overflowing a considerable - area, leaving ' cone shaped mounds. V For. two hours we continued our drive all over the city and everywhere the destruction was more or less complete. r - - As a general rule the frame buildings fared by far the best. But to sum up in a word, my impression is there is not a build ing of any kind or size iu. the city of Charleston but .was more or leas injured. " I should say that fifty per cent of the brick houses in the city are seriously damaged and twenty-five per cent, ruined irrepara bly. I have heard various estimates of the loss and after eeeing for myself,- I sheuld say the actual loss of real estate would not be less than twenty per cent on the asses-' sed value, which is, I believe, $23,000,000. You can make your own calculation; -;; The loss of life we found to be not one half as serious as reported, which fortu nate circumstance was attributable to the fact that nearly the . entire population of the city were within doors at the time and the danger was over before they could get on the streets. I -am satisfied that if the calamity had happened during the busy part of the day, and while the sidewalks were crowded, the loss of life would have been fearful ' . - Considsring the terrible'' exposure of the people, and their awful surroundings, and the intense state of suspense and anxiety concerning the future, the appearance of the people generally struck me as being heorio and worthy of praise. All were on a terrible strain, not knowing at what mo ment another and more fearful shock would be upon them. . " ; ? r - At 12 o'clock we proceeded to the City Hall, by appointment with the Mayor pro tern. There we found everything pushed with energy. Our interview with his Honor was brief, as he war overcome with busi ness. I explained to him that we were a committee sent over by the citizens of Wil mington tojexpress to them the deep sym pathy felt in this, their supreme hour of distress; and from the fact of all communi cation being stopped by telegraph that our anxiety as to their people was so great as to cause us to come to help at all hazards, and tender to them our services in any;way needed. I also handed to him the - resolu tions passed at our mass meeting as fully expressing the sentiments of our people. We also placed in his hands $1,000 in cur rency and informed him that an additional $1,000 in money would be sent him on our return The Mayor replied, accepting our expressions and donation with muCh feel ing, and stated he would explain our mis sion to the citizens of the city. - Our. con tribution and offer of aid I believe was the first that was made by committee or other wise, and was deeply felt in the city. ' - - The treasurer who receipted to Alderman Boney 'for the funds, stated to him that the presence or our committee urmer me circumstancereven if not bringing one penny would never be forgotten by the people of i Charleston-We are, felt that we have done the right . thing in going as we did, and. only regret that we could not do more for that most unfortunate city. ; "The result of this calamity in the future of Charleston no man , can tell. It looks Just now as if that ; city has received ' its death blow,; ror, - oe it rememoerea, mat unlike a great fire, there is no - insurance money to look to. But from the charac teristic and indomitable piucs: . ox tne peo ple of Charleston, and the pecuniary aid that must come from all parts of the synw pathiznur world, I may say, I trust they may be able to again restore, their : beauti ful and historic city to the present position of being the "Queen city of the South.'' -.. Last evening, just at or about 11 o'clock another well-defined shock struck the city, and at 11.15 our committee left the Charles ton Hotel in - the; omnibus for the depot, and one of the most touching and memora ble sights met our eyes that we experienced during the whole day. -Undoubtedly that shock must have caused the entire popula tion of the city, from their terribly excited condition, . to rush for safety, into 'the streets and parks. On our way from the hotel : to the Northeastern depot, on the streets that we traversed, there must ' have been not less than 5,000 human beings, scattered along in the middle of the streets; every park was crowded;-; What made it so impressive to me was that among that immense ; terror-striken 1 crowd - not one sound was heard. Many w ere , on their kndes, as if in . silent prayer. It seemed that the time for shouting and loud prayers Lhad passed, and that they had looked death m tne lace and then recognized ms pres ence and were quietly awaiting the blow.

Policeman WoebBe while walking jhis beat about twelve o'clock Friday night met colored . nan with a pair of chickens.
