GEORGETOWN CORRESPONDENCE.
GEORGETOWN, August Is. 1864

dEoRGErowN, August Is, 1856.
Yesterday was Sabbath of unusual quiet
in our city. The day was unusually pleasant
for the season, which drew together at our va.
rious churches much larger congregations than
has been in the habit of attending for some
time past E.
A FIRE occurred about 2 o'clock yesterday
morning, in a small dwelling house situated
on the canal near the outlet locks, which was
entirely consumed. The property belonged to
the estate of the late William Frush, and was
occupied by an Irish family, several of whom
were very sick at the time. The family by
the timely assistance of the neigh bors were all
gotten out of the house, and ali the furniture
saved. The Hook and Ladder, Union, and
Western Hose companies of your city, and the
pigilant OF ours were promptly on the spot,
but owing to the combustible nature of the
main portion OF the building, it was entirely
consumed before they could render any assist.
ance
An item in the letter Of the Georgetown cor.
respondent Of the Baltimore Sun of this morn ..
ing seems to be worded so as to convey the
idea that the first notice Of the invention for
unloading coal boats at the Lon aconing docks
was given by him through the columns of tn at
paper. Such is not the fact. Several weeks
before any notice of it appeared in any other
paper We had the satisfaction of examining
the machine shops Of the inventor, Mr. W. T
Duvall, the model Of the entire machinery,
and gave full description of its construction
and method Of operating through the columns
of the Evening Star
The foreign news of this morning will ave
very considerable effect upon our -four and
wheat market No sales Of the former has
transpired since its arrival; prices, however,
We think, are pretty certain to decline. The
former has declined about Toe per bushcI for
all qualities.
We would advise members of Congress and
others who are travelling west to take the
packet Argo as far on their route as Harper s
Ferry. A cheaper and more pleasant route
Is not to be found in this section. survey
Of the line Of the canal, and the magnificent,
romantic scenery which surrounds it, is an
ample reward for the small amount charged
for passage and fare. SPECTATOR.
