On ‘Thursday, immediately after breakfast, Mrs. Riggs was taken with spasms, and in a few rho* ments Mr. Riggs was also taken sick, but he was not so, severely: attacked as his wife. He went to one of the neighbors and asked fog.assistance. Doctor Martin, of Red Dog, was immediately called and ‘ applied the necessary remedies, to the realong nicély. lief of the patients. The food upon the table was fed toa dog and as it did not ‘effect him, it is supposed that the poison was mixed with the tea. The fiend came near effecting his purpose so far as the lady was concerned, but it is supposed that Mr. Riggs got an overdose.. They have a child but as it ate nothing at breakfast it was not sick. Mr. Riggs says he was unconscious of having an enemy in the world and can account for the attempt to take his life in no other way than that it-was made by Chinamen.

Some workmen engaged on the opposite side saw the bank giving way and gave the alarm. The. miners in. the Eastern claim dropped their tools and ran, bately succeeding in getting out of reach, when a huge masse of earth came down, burying their coats and tools. No one was injur od, and the damage i is of small extent. Tue BivE Psrer.—The Blue Peter , *°"*4* Ledge is located on Cement Hill.
