Thursday last the Selinsgrove post master received a letter postmark ed Camden, N. J., Octolier 20 and sign.il by T. Mack which has caus ed considerable excitement in that place. The writer claims to have- overheard a conversation lictwccii several parties from this place wherein a plot to set fire to stores and residences in Sclinsgrove, Sun bury, Iewistown and Bellcfoiite for the purpose ot roMiery, was discuss ed. Au ohl puldler from Middle burgh, whose name is given in the letter, was mentioned as the man selected to apply the torch. The postmaster was niiiestcd to warn Dr. Wageuseller to lie on the look out and the writer nroniised write again from McVevtown. This letter was written not the purpose of doing any good, hut more likely for the puroso of in juring a man whose name was inen- tiontil in the letter. The ircntle- man at present is in the south which at once proves the falsity ot story. to for the "That the richest, and largest de posits of gold that the earth has ev er produced up to the present time have lieen found in the Alaska Klondyke country is now an es tablished fact.
