NORTHEASTER ON LAKE SUPERIOR.
      Duluth, July 18. - The stiff northeaster held a number of boats in port last night. The BARKER and LIBERTY, with passengers for Ashland, were forced to run back for shelter. The Revenue Cutter FESSENDEN arrived during the afternoon. The Whale-Back Barge 130, recently ashore in Hammond's Bay, was docked at Superior for repairs. The PRATT will enter the dock next Sunday. The extent of her damages from going ashore near Detour are not yet known.
