A Scheming Letter.
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.
