Suspicious.

--On Saturday last a small shop boat from the city anchored in Schooner creek, and remained all Sunday. Late in the evening the sloop was observed to come out and go into Light-House creek; came out of the creek early Monday, and remained under the shore all that day. In the night she is supposed to have rounded Cummings's Point and gone to see, as nothing could be seen of her Tuesday morning. The battery on Morrit's Island fired at her, but with what effect is not known.--An unusually large number of schooners were' visible off the bar early Tuesday morning--Charleston Courier, 4th.
