Details: WOLLONGONG, JANUARY 30.-This evening, Major Macpherson, of the 99th, left our shores, deeply, as well as universally regretted. Such a stirring, exciting scene has not occurred here for many a day. Wollongong seemed quite in commotion, every one from the highest to the lowest having turned out to witness and do honour to the departure. Major Macpherson has now been amongst us for some considerable time, and during that period, whether considered in his public or private capacity, has gained the esteem and affection of every one in the district. His destination is Norfolk Island ; his very amiable lady, whose departure also is most sincerely and universally regretted), and family accompany him. From the very short notice of his departure, it was impossible to get up any public demonstration on the occasion, as was earnestly wished; suffice to say, that the public feeling of affectionate regard was fully evinced by the people advancing, desirous of carrying the Major shoulder high to the boat,--which honour, however, he modestly declined- probably bearing in mind, too, what occurred on a former occasion of a similar nature, in another part of the world, when, his bearers, losing their footing, caused likely by the no small bulk they had to support, both he and they, to the no small amusement of the beholders, got well ducked in the watery element. The embarkation was followed by the loud and deafening cheers of the assembled crowd on the quay, which continued at intervals till the steamer, which lay in the offing, moved off, and as long as she was within hail.
