A Nsw MOVE.-Tho conversion of tho Adger building into an Academy of ?Mujio, made it necessary that Mr. K. White should find other quarters for his mammoth stock of furniture.

The moving in is DOW over, and Mr. White is again prepar? ed to supply the public with everything in bis line. THE STEAMSHIP GEORGI a.-We learn that this steamship, which was recently put upon the line between here and New York, was an English blockade runuor during the late war and waa captured by a Federal gunboat, while about th\rty miles off the mouth of tho Savan? nah River. The gunboat.in order to bring her to, dring a shot through, instead of across her bows. It is related that a member of the crew of the gunboat, who had been captured on another blockade runner, a short timo pre? vious, but had enlisted iu tbe service or bia captors, noticed that the soles of the shoes of the sailors of the captured crew were very thick. Boing up to "privateer's dodge*," he made an examination, and found that the soled were hollow and contai.iod gold coin. There was a demand for privatoeramen's shoes im mediately, and a considerable amount of gold was realized. Thc Georgia, or Karaak, as abe was then named, was sent to Now v0rk and sold._ CfiUatBs.-Some of the lette:? from Colum? bia ooma stamped Columsia. The postmaster should have a new stamp made.

Ennis Myers and Anderson Davis, negroes, were arrested yesterday by Officer Hernandez upon suspicion of stealing clothing from Mrs. Hammond. During the past four weeks tbere have been one hundred and fifteen deaths in the city twenty-nine whites and eighty-six blacks. THE QBEAT SCABS.-Many wild rumors are afloat in tbe city and along the coast in regard to a "tidal wave," which, it is predicted, will dreocu our seaboard, about the end of tbe first week m the present month. Tbe whole foun? dation /or Ute apprehension which prevails, consista in the following paragraph from the London Timos: "Captain Saxby, of the Boyal Navy, has ca.ll "ed publie attention to the following facts, "which, rf verified bj resulta, will prove a "curious instanco of a priori reasoning: At 7 "A. M., on the ensuiug October 5, the moon "wilt be at the part of her orbit which ie "nearest the earth; her attraction will, there "fore, be at its maximum force. At noon the "moon will be on tbe earth's equator, a cir? cumstance which never occurs without mark "ed atmospheric disturbance; at 2 P. M. the "same day, lines drawn from the earth's cen 'Jue will cut tho.sun and moon ia the same "arc of right ascension. The moon's attrac? tion and the sui's will, therefore, bo acting ''in the same direction. In cluer words, tbe "new moon will bo on the earth's equator " wheu in perigee, and nothing more threaten? ing can occur of big h tides and destructivo "storms. Sur John H?rschel bas tai J tbat no "man jealous of hia reputation will be a weath "or prophet. The foregoing pre liction. which "assumes to be grounded on aaoertaiuing ohy "aioal facts, is given with s.n air of perfect con "fldenoe, and may be tested in the ensuing "autumn.'*_ HOTEL \BBTVALS, BSFTEKBEB 30.-Pavilion Botel.-3.

In your 'issue of yesterday, injury was done to me and the enterprise which I have under* taken, by the publication of an article alleging that tbe City by the Sos, a free advertising journal -the first number of which appeared on the preceding afternoon-ia a " Radical venture in disguise, and that it is owned by the proprietors of a Radical city paper." / deny thu statement emphatically. It baa likewise beon publicly denied by tbe editors referred to. The circum? stances-and all of the circumstances-oon nee ted with tho publication are these, and I have no hesitation in declaring tb?m: Anxious to bring out the City by the Sea at tho earliest day practicable having already secured a lar-e advertising patronage, op the eve of applying to a weJI-k aowii printing office in Charleston to have th? work done there, I was informed that the proprietors couki not engago in tho undertaking from wont of particular facilities. My experience With tho press taught mo that I could expect no old or eo-operation from either the Conner br NEWS, because they are my rivilla in'enterprise, and 1 accordingly called upon Mr. Wm. t?. Bran, a Southern gen? tleman, weil known in the typographical pro? fession of thia, city. After proper coca:? ; oration be contracted to do the necessary work, ona it waa done. ; I frankly concede tb.it the "City by the Sea" was printed on the type tn the jon depar'meot of that papjer, and that, to pr event delay in the publication of tho first number a few advt r tie em en te, already set up were borrowed from its oorunrrafl-!>uf f??ry were inserted wuhoui M| knowledge or consent. In conclusion. I ?nil edd that I have no de? sire lo be mart\ rised for the benefit of either of tbe^urn^l^reterr^w; and tpoeo who ?ava hog ear to charges rjeJeroate^rto t?infn the cha rae'er of a vpqpg moo proud of his home and pebble; aatf io eruah oatan boomst ana worthy enterprise. _ _ __ _.
