Fisawcieb.—We leant that an tndl’ Tidaal who claimed to be one of the Smith family— not John Smith, but Henry Smith, from New York, took lodgings at the Pulaski House about a week ago, representing himself to be largely interested In tl.e cotton business. Mr. Smith had Just returned from the interior, where he had made large purchases of the great staple, which he designed shipping to his house In New York. Mr. Smith lived, moved and put on the airs of a gentleman of large means. Mr Smlth purchased a large stock of goods for his house in Florida, and engaged a clerk for that concern, whom be also boaidedjat the hotel until he should complete his business arrangements here. Mr. Smith was short of ready change to pay a t&lance of freight—only fifteen dollars on seventy £ye bales of cotton. Mr. Smith borrowed that umount for a few minutes from anew made acquain tance, since which time Mr. Smith ha9uot been seen. It U suptffcsed Mr. Smith left for Charleston, but In the hurry of business, Mr. Smith forget to payhu hotel bill or to pay hU little accommodation. No cotton lias arrived here for Mr. Smith. Mr. Smith la no doubt an accomplished financier of the modem scUool, but In a much'smaiter ceale than Jenkins or Ketchum _____________ Philadelphia and Savannah Steamship Line.— Messrs.

Fob Flobida.— I Thursday afternoon the steamer Helen Gelty, Capt. Ingraham, was cleared for Palat ka, Fla., etc., by Mr. L. S. Bennett, her Agent.

It Is the Intention of the owners of the Helen Gelty that she shad make weekly trips. From Charleston.—The steamer Fannie, Cap t. Lewis, arrived yesterday morning rrom Charleston.

At the present time there Is a limited stock of Dry Goods offering, and prices are unchanged. The stocks offering are not such that a merchant from the interior would select, os the season U far ad vanced, and the Fall patterns wIU soon be ottered. Local sas* will therefore be restricted for a few weeks. Sales for the Interior will 1* made, though they will be mainly confined to goods immediately iu demand.

The Cotton market presents no new features, the rates are the same a3 last week. The receipts have teen very good, the majority lor shipment A3 the Savannah, Altamaha and Ocmulcee rivers continue very low, there 13 a very limited business doing in freights. Recently accessions have been made of light draft steamer;, which will possibly prove of some relief to our merchants who have large stocks and equally large orders to fill. The resumption of railway travel between Savan nah and Augusta, as also tjie forwarding of goods by the road, will greatly relieve our merchants.

No embarrassment has yet been expet lent ed In thecollej tlou of the Internal Revenue Tax, buyers aud ship pers being aware that it waste be collected either In New 1 ork or at this port.
