Petition for tho Comm utation OF HIs

Inst.
There was rumor yesterday that a petition win
be presented to the Governor asking him to COM
mute Fosters sentence to imprisonment for life.
A HERALD reporter called on Judge Porter Fosters
counsel, who received him with much courtesy, but
said that his sense OF professional propriety for
babe him to say anything. The reporter then went
to the Tombs and saw Foster. He stood behind
the thick iron bars that shut him out from the
world. young woman who was neatly dressed
in deep black, stood in front of the CELL They con-
versed In whispers. Her voice was lows she spoke
in tones that were drowned in tears. 1t was his
Wife, She Is pretty, and has modest, genteel ap-
pearance.
"May speak to Mr.. Foster for u moment p" the
reporter asked.
''This is Mr. Fostern she answered very politely.
The reporter scanned the condemned mans
features. What a change His cheeks were haggard,
his eyes were sunken, and had so sad an express
sion that IL was painful to look into them; his hair
seemed to have turned gray in few days. What
a strange unearthly light in his eyesl Was he
thinking OF death as he spoke?
The reporter asked the condemned man to tell
him what he knew about the petition. ~ know
nothing about it," he SAID, sadly, and in q voice
that seemed TO come from the grave, al know
nothing about it," And then he added, casting q
Mrs. Foster said she knew nothing about the
petition, and the reporter lett them They were
again alone: God only heard what the wife said to
her husband who was to die on the gallOws.
The reporter ascertained that the prison Keepers,
all with the exception OF two, mad signed q testi-
monial OF Fosters good conduct while in prison.
This testimonial has been sent to Albany. 1t was
signed by Lawrence Phillips. Thomas Butler,
bay aso
Dwyer. AS regards the other petition it was as
certained that O good many merchants, lawyers
and clergymen intend to sign it. 1t will probably
be presented to the Governor on the Goth or 2lst
inst. very well-known lawyer said to the re-
porter, II know q great many OF the leading men
OF the city who think that Foster never Intended
to kill Putnam and he is therefore to be treated DIFF
ferently from one who lies In walt to commit MUIR

before next week.

COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS PART 2
Before City Judge Sutherland.

Before City Judge Sutherland.
There was a heavy calendar in this Court yester-
day, and number OF cases were disposed Of
Judge Sutherland presided.
Pleads Guilty to Grand Larceny.
James Collins, indicted for grand larceny, pleaded
guilty and was sentenced to two years and six
months State Prison. Dennis Mahony pleaded
guilty to petit larceny from the person and was
sentenced to two years and six months in the
Thomas Jourdan and JOnn NOOnan were forfeited.
Sentenced to Sing Sing.
Mary Dalton was tried for stealing $75 from
q fellow bOarder in servants boarding house. The
evidence OF the complainant and the officer was
very strong and the defendant gave somewhat
lame defence about having lent man whom she
repaid shortly before the robbery. She was found
guilty and sentenced to two years with hard labor
at Sing Sing.
Modern Jean Vatican.
Henry Mott, Frenchman, was next brought up
to plead guilty to attempt to steal sleigh robe
He said in extenuation that he had begged in vain
all day and was starving To this, his counsel
added that he thought the man was demented, as
he stated that fifteen years ago his wife had
left him, robbing him OF 100000 Mott had been in
the United states twenty-six years and had served
through the war; This story was, however, some
what suspicious in some OF its features, and the
Court sentenced him to two years and six months
in the State Prison.
A Case OF Not Guilty.
THE next case tried was that of cartman named
Henry Canning who was charged with stealing
small trunk entrusted to him for delivery The
counsel for defendant had at one time had per-
sonal difficulty with the complainant, an adverti-
sing physician, who declined to say whether he
had graduated at medical college, and
there was no little amusement IN Court from
the constant verbal tits between these two
gentlemen. In reply to one question, the
complainant seized the bull by the horns and said
''rhat Is where 1t happened, sir, just where 1
kicked you down stairs and nearly choked you.n In
retort the defence asked the complainant many
questions about his record which he refused to an
swer, and his character was also illustrated by
favorable and unfavOrable witness. These matters
In spite Of the efforts OF the Judge and District At
torney Rollins to keep the case within Its natural
limits, absorbed the whole OF the rest of the day.
The jury, after . brief elaboration, brought In q
verdict OF not guilty.

Action for Failure OF Contract.
Before Judge Joachimsen.
Doner ct al. Vs. Higgins.-On the 10th OF May,
1872 the defendant entered into an agreement in
writing with Brink & Co. by which he agreed to
deliver to them on the oath Of July following 200
barrels Of spirits Of turpentine at forty cents
per gallon, and which also stipulated that each
party should make deposit with the Union Trust
Company "a security. This deposit Higgins made,
but Brink Co. failed 80 to do Before the date for
the delivery Brink Co. had assigned the contract
on their part to the plaintiffs, Dollner Co., and two
days before the date fixed for delivery one Of this
latter Arm called on defendant and stated the fact
OF assignment to Them when, according to the testl
mony OF this witness, defendant was satisfied, but
advised that the assignment be reduced to writ
ing, making no complaint as to the security not
being deposited. Defendants version OF this In
terview, however, is that he complained Of this
neglect and demanded that 1t should be attended
to ut once, but ut the same time permission was
given HIM (Higglns to withdraw his deposit, the
market having advanced ten cents q gallon.
The Court charged the jury that the deposit was
not a condition precedent upon which the perform
ance OF the contract depended; that the parties
had right to cnange their contract, and II they
changed It and made a new contract then the yer.
dict must be in favor OF defendant, this suit being
brought on the original contract; but II the old
contract was not abrogated, but simply modified,

SUDDEN DEATH.
Undue Haste In Making o Post-BIortem
Examfn finn.

About quarter before eleven O'Clock yesterday
morning Mr.. J. r. Frisbee. gentleman sixty years
OF age who lived at IL West Twenty street,
was taken sick ct the corner OF Broadway and Bar
clay street. and Immediately removed to the
Centre Street Hospital, where he sunk till twelve
O'Clock, when death ensued. Subsequently Coro.
ner Kessler was notified, and In about an hour and
half alter Mr.. Frisbee's death DR.. Leo, by order Of
the Coroner, visited the hospital remarking to one
OF the surgeons in attendance that he had come to
make p0st-rnortem examination on the body. AS
1t Is unusual-if not inhuman-to make these in.
designations In less than eight or ten hours after
DEATH the surgeon IN charge said to DR.. Leo at IL
too soon." Soon afterwards Coroner Kessler made
his appearance and ordered the body prepared for
opening, and, as the surgeons positively aver In
less tnan an hour and half after Mr.. Frisbee's
death his scalp was removed, preparatory to ex-
aiming the brain TO learn the cause OF death. This
undue haste in opening the body Of the deceased
gentleman Is, 10 say the least, very remarkable
II not .unheard-of-pr0ceeding among the Deputy
Coroners and medical men generally, but the whole
responsibility OF the matter rests not with Deputy
Coroner Leo but with Coroner Kessler himself who
uaspresent and superinteRded the examination. =.
