to Destroy a Family.

On Saturday night an attempt was
made to destroy the family of Mr..
Charles c. Herring, dealer in carpets,
whose store and residence is on the west
side Of Second street, below South.
During the day small box was re-
ceived, accompanied by the following
note, addressed to Mrs. Herring:
PHILADELPHIA, July IL, lS14-Mrs.
G. e. Herring You will have the
kindness of looking at samples of the
window shade rollers inclosed in pack
age. You will find something very
saleable in your store. They are new
patent article, which will demand a
great call for the same. | will call on
you in few days. You can exhibit
the same in your store free of charge.
If not suitable return the same to fac
tory, No. 555S North Front street.
G. W, EYLER & Co.
Not suspecting anything wrong she
made an attempt to open the box, fail
ing in which she called her husband.
He commenced TO work at it, but fear
ing design to do harm, be did it very
cautiously, and upon removing the lid,
he discovered that the box contained
about three pounds of powder and that
matches had been so placed just be.
meath the lid as to ignite the powder
when the top should be removed ; but
by the careful removal of it the antici-
pated effects were obviated.
Information of lie plot was commu-
nicated to Chief Helms, at the Central
Station, and the detectives were set to
work to discover the perpetrator of the
murderous act. Yesterday, a young
man, named Edward Wagner, 81 years
old, son-in-law of Charles Herring.
was arrested on suspicion, and locked
up at the Central Station for hearing.
The belief of Wagner's guilt is found
ed upon an alleged hostility to the
mother-in-law, and resemblance of
the writing in the note to that of the
defendant IN other papers. The bad
feeling of the son-in-law is attributed
to the fact of his wanting to 60 into
business with the father-in-law, which
Mrs. Herring opposed. Charles Her
ring had daughter killed by her hus-
band in June of last year, the husband
following the murder by the commits
sion of suicide. The affair created
much excitement at the time, by rea-
son of the double crime and of the cir
cumstances attending the commission.

To owners of unpatened lands the
following is of great interest:

To owners Of unpatened lands the
following is of great interest:
HARRISBURG, June l, 1874
To the Comfy Surueyors and orcuers of
Unp1teRfed lands:
SIRs Notwithstanding the fact that
suits could have been brought to en-
force the payment of arrearages on un-
patented lands last fall, at least so far
as many tracts were concerned, the
Board of Property thought best to post
pone the matter for short time, on ac-
count of the country. Whether the
Board will direct suits to be brought
this summer may depend on the spirit
manifested in paying off these claims.
AS the amount due on each tract is
comparatively small, If suits were
brought, Ihe costs would, in most in
stances, double the sum, would there
fore urge all owners of such lands,
whether notices have been served upon
them or not, to take prompt steps to
have these leins liquidated. snd there
By save this heavy additional expense.
Under the new Constitution addi-
tional Duties will devolve upon this
Office next year, and therefore it is de-
sirable that most OF the work relating
TO patenting lands may be disposed OF
before that time. The interests of the
State and the owners of unpatented
lands will be subserved by giving this
subject merited attention.
Very respectfully,
ROBERT b. BEATH,
Surveyor General.
