PoRr TOWNSEND. W. T. Jnly 16. 1875.
EprroR DESPATCH: The week appears
to be a good week for the knife and pis-
tol. The hot weather. combined with
bad whiskey appears to have bad ef-
feet upon the community. I gave you
an account of three rows in my last and
l have three more to write about now.
On Wednesday evening q fracas oe-
cured in ono Of the mad houses hero be-
tween the proprietor and q Chinaman.
in which the Celestial was orpamented
with fearful head by the aid of water
pitcher which was smashed over his
head by the irate proprietor, and also
receive severe knife wounds.
On Thursday afternoon a man named
Helm attempted to commit suicide by
shooting himself. Ee was sitting in the
beer halt conversing with former en-
ployer, when said employer secused
him of attempting to swindle him. He
jumped to his feet and said sooner than
be accused of swindling any body he
would shoot himself. and suiting the &C.
ton to the word drew his revolver and
fred. The ball entered just above the
heart. He then walked up TIE street and
fell in front of the store of Chas. Eisin-
beis, into which he was carried and DR..
Wheeler summoned. He is still alive
this morning and I ana informed that
his chances for recovery are good.
Soon after the above event Bensin the
ferry man had . quarrel with friend
of his and attempted to strike him but
only srcceeded in putting his hand
through glass door, cutting three bad
gashes in his wrist. His wounds were
dressed by DR.. Calhoun.
The Gussie Telfair left here Thursday
morning having the ship Mathilda in
tow, for Burrard Inlet.

PIsH RIVER. From Mr.. Graves
who has just returned from a
cruise through this country, we
learn there is much good timber
and agricultural lands yet vacant
and unsurveyed. There is a
good harbor and the few settlers
that are there have lots of stock
and fine crops.
Some years ago coal mines
were foInqned there, but the big
honanzas Of Nevada and Utah
drew the attention of capitalist
that way, and they have not
since been touched. Mr.. Graves
and Mr.. Collins will soon return
to Pish River.
