No further attempt will be made by
the Department of Internal Affairs to
eollect the unpaid purchase money for
in Chester, Lancaster, Berks and other
counties, and so great has veen the
pressure on Secretary Latta that he re-
cently addressed the following letter
to Major I. B. Brown, his deputy :
Dear Sir--The collection of the un-
wid purchase money Spon the land
jen docket has developed so many in-
stances of real hardship, particularly
in the excessive charges of interest im-
posed by the act of 1864, that I am in-
clined to think the next Legislature
would be disposed to afford relief. The
State can Jose nothing by the delay,
and ean be liberal if she chooses,
You will be gond enough, therefore,
to suspend further collection, except
from those who prefer to pay to perfect
title.
