MR.. WISE ON THE STUMP.-A private
letter received here from Scott county,
dated August 10Th, says: Wise spoke here
yesterday. Our committee decided, after
a full conference, not to have junt discus
sion. His speech was simple rehash OF
the personal abuse and trade of SANDER
and malignity that characterize their plat
form. It fell fiat upon his hearers who had
been led to expect speech from high
and dgniGed standpoint. His canvass
through Russell and this county has had no
effect; no enthusiasm was created, and at
several places he did not speak for want of
an audience.

The barge Cockahe City owned and used by
Messrs. Henry Brothers, Baltimore, fruit
importers, rs storage boat, was totally
DESTROYED by fire at 10 O'Clock Friday night
while living in Curtis Bay. The origin OF
the fire is unknown. The watchman on
board was awakened by the roaring of flames
issuing from the cabin. Every effort was
made to exsinguish the fire, but proved
unavaling The barge was valued ut Sf,ooo
and the loss is fully covered 10y insurance.
The barge had an erentiul career. she
was we'll known in Baltimore as the vessel
that carried down the party 10 Tivoil two
wears ago, when so many lives were lost by
the breaking of the pier. After that the
Cockade City was used as storage boat by
Henry Brothers, and last summer she sunk
ut Bowly's " wharf with load of oranges.
She was raised and repaired, and during
the early part of this summer was lowed to
Curtis Creel: and used as private place OF
abode by MeSsrs Henry Brothers and their
friends while: "n fishing cxpeai,ion0 down
at the creek. The Cockade City, under
command Of Captain Harper formerly OF
The old steamer Columbia), was run on this
river for excursion purposes for three sum
mers, commenting in 1877 and ending IN
1879 She did not provea success, however
on the Potomac.
