The STEAMER GEoRGIANA.-Capt Hudson and
mate of the steamer Gsorgiana, with Mr.. Hape, q
passenger, and q boats crew, went down to Sulll-
vans Island Saturday morning for the purpose Of
visiting the steamer and trying 70 save If possible
portion of the cargo. On their arrival they were
kindly prottered assistance by Capt. Haskell who
joined them with detachment OF men from his
battery and one gun. The party proceeded along
the beach and discovered tL ur of the blockadng
vessels close in, and in such position as to be
able 70 rake the stranded steamer with their guns
Upon seeing our hen approach, the blockaders
steamed up and commenced firing, most Of their
shot striking around and upon the wreck. Capt.
Haskell replied, but was unable to reach them.
The enemy succeeded in completely riddling the
Georgiuna, aud all h. pes OF saving anything, @e
believe, have been abandoned. A crew Of six
men from Capt HaskePs battery, who left to visit
the wreck OH FRIDAY night, are reported missing,
and it is feared have been captured by the enemy.

THr News FROM FLoRrpA.-The Bo,to. arrived

THE News PROM FLoRrDA.-The BOSTON, arrived
from Jacksonville Tuesday. The negro troops
had driven the rebels some eight or ten miles out Of
town. Gen. Finnegan had assembled brigade of
Georgia troops and had demanded THAT tne s' an
kees'' should evacuate the city, but our forces
s'couldu't see it." On Monday, according to the
Savannah Republicans: an engagement took place
between the Confederate light batteries and the
Federal gunboats. The Republican says: "We
have particulars, except that there was no loss
on our side, and We poured the shot and shell into
the enemy for considerable time, it is hoped, with
good effect
The Republ can of the 25th has also leader
upon the recent operations ON the Georgia and
Florida coasts. 1t says: s.From the negro raid
lnto Florida We look for nothing serious. We
ouly hope that the enemy will take it into their
heads to concentrate their entire force of Amer
lean citizens of African descent at Jacksonville
1t will prove great convenience to the owners OF
those deluded victims. They will then have some
prospect ofrecoverins their stoI I property, pro-
,ided they can be got far enough rom the gun
boats to be caught. The idea Of tt doing any
serious fighting against white men is simply rdc-
ulous. We hope Mr.. Thsyer will succeed in his
scheme OF Florida colonization, and that he will
accompany his colonists, in order that we may bag
the whole party, white and black, without going
too far to hunt for them.''
The fond hopes of the Savannah editor above
quoted are not in very fair way of realization.
SO far the black troops in Florida have decidedly
the advantage of their enemies They have had
several skirmishes with Finnegan's forces, driving
them on every occasion. Instead ofs' bagging the
whole party, white and black" the valiant Flori-
dians have allowed several Of their number to he
killed and wounded. Not only this: but the Bos-
ton brought up George w. Cliuch, James A.
Plummer, John Drysdaie, Bartola Geneva, and
Stephen Bryan as prisoners Of war. They were
marched from the steamer to the Provost Guard
headquarters on Tuesday last, surrounded by
guard ofnegro soldiers.

The reports in regard to the encounter off Charles
ton Harbor, being from Rebel sources, are doubtless
greatly exaggerated. There has been no Interrupt
ton of the blockade, and such assumption will be
admitted by the Government.
A telegram was received to-day from Fortress
Monroe, saying:
Gen. Dix is in receipt Of Rebel news from Charles
ton TO the Sd inst, at which time that port was
thoroughly blockaded, the Union iron-cads lying in
side of the wooden vessels. The former were not
with the fleet at the time Of the attack on the lst
inst. An attack on the city was momentarily e1-
pectcd. A dispatch-boat with an official account
from Admiral Dupont was hourly expected.
