FOSTER AFTER THE RESPITE

From the New York Herald
The news which came to William Fos-
ter yesterday morning when he arose
from tho prison cell must have sent a
thrill Of gldaness through the condoaned
mans frame. At eight o'clock a keeper
carried the news to Foster in his cell, and
so great was his surprise at the news that
he could not speak for many minutes.
When he had recovered he expressed his
gratitude for the respite given him in I'M
measured terms for one who is usually 80
cautious and reserved.
The deputy sheritis were in charge Of
Foster when his wife, who had been in
formed OF the news, entered the corridor
in which Foster has been allowed to stroll
lately. The meeting was u very affecting
one and Mrs. Foster wept very freely on
her husbands shoulder. Sheriff Brennan
has discontinued his preparations for the
execution at present, and seems rejoiced
that he has no immediate official act of re-
sponsibility to perform. The telegram TO
Sheriff Brennan from Governor Dix was
of a very brief nature, and merely III
formed him that he was to temporarily sus-
pend preparations for the execution. The
official document of respite has been signed
by the governor, and 10 on its way and
win BIO received this morning by Sheriff
Brennan. The condemned man is not
very sanguine as to getting final COM
mutation of his sentence, and he has not
expressed any hopes as to escape from the
dread sentence Of tho law. To-day, when
the respite arrives officially, the deputy
sheri6s will be relieved Of tho charge Of
Foster for the present. Fears are enter
tanned by many tina, Gov. Dix's decision
must of necessity be an unfavorable one
| for poor Foster.

THE DOOR TEST.

A correspondent of the Scientific
American gives the following novel man.
ner for measuring mems characters.
Dusing the last ten years, in the win.
ter, according to our record, We have no.
ticed the manner in which one thousand
persons who called for work have opened,
shut, or not thut our store door. This,
you may say, is futile and useless un-
dertaking, but we entertain very differ
ent opinion. What are the facts and de.
auctions? ~
Out Of 1000 persons recorded, 1856
opened the door and shut It carefully
when they came in, and when they went
out.
2. Two hundred and twenty. six
opened it in hurry, and made an at
tempt to shut it, but did not, and merely
pulled It TO when they went out.
3. Three hundred and three did not at
tempt to shut 1t at all, either on coming
| in or going out.
4. Ninety.sx left It open when they
came in, but, when reminded of the fact,
made ample apology, and shut it when
they went out.
5. One hundred and two opened it in
great hurry, and then slammed it to VIZ
olently, but left 1t open when they went
out.
6. Twenty came in with 'How do you
do?" or, "Good'evening, sir" and these
went through the operation of wipng
their feet on the mat, but did not shut the
door when they went out.
Remarks.--We have employed men out
of all tho above classes, and during that
time have had an opportunity Of judging
Of their merits, &c.
Tho first class of 1856 were those who
knew their trade, and commenced and
finished their trade in msthodical man
ner, were quiet had little TO say during
hours, and were we'll approved by those
for whom they did their work. They were
punctual to time, and left nothing undone
which they were ordered to do. They did
not complain at TRIES, and in oil respects
they were reliable men, and were kind
and obliging in their genecal conduct.

In the Illinois house Of represe ntatives
on last Thursday, the following was adop-
ted as q part Of the proposed new jury
law, and tho bill was ordered to third
reading:
-.vsiuea further, That in the trial of
any criminal cause the fact that person
called as juror has formed an opinion
based on rumor, or newspaper statement
Of the truth Of which he has expressed no
opinion, shall not disqualify him from
serving as a juror in such cause, if he
shall on oath state that he believes he can
fairly and impartially render verdict
therein, in accordance with the law and
the evidence, and tho court shall be salts
fed Of the truth of the statement.
The sense of this provision will be ap-
proved by the enlightened of the public,
which has long considered that part of the
jury law which this clause proposes to rem.
edy, as one of the relics of the past which
should be abolished.

THE WASHINGTON TIT. BITS.

[st. Louis Republican Telegram.1
THE PRESIDENT AND THE SALARY CUES
TON.
While the legislative, executive and ju-
dicial appropriation bill was pending In
the senate, and when the success Of the
proposition to increase the salaries Of con-
gressmcn seemed in danger Of defeat, rep
resentative Hornor, Of Philadelphia,
called upon the president, and in con.
versation the subject Of an increase Of
salaries was incidentally mentioned. Hor-
ner stated that, while there was divisit n
Of opinion as TO Increasing the salaries Of
congressman and other officers Of the gov.
erment mentioned In the bill, there was
no question that the pay Of tho president
should be increased. To this the presi-
dent replied that he did not wish any
thing oftbat kind done. If the bill came
TO him with proposition increasing his
own salary and leaving out that Of the
cabinet officers, the judge Of the supreme
court, and members Of congress, he would
feel called upon TO veto 1t. The circula-
tion Of this item among congressman, II Is
stated, had good effect in making con-
| verts to the advancing of salaries.
cREswELL AND THE cARPET-BAooKRs.
For the last three months rae Southern
Republicans in congress wero quietly at
work forming combinations TO secure the
removal Of Mr.. Creswell from the
cabinet and the appointment In
his place of ex-senator Pool,
of North Carolina. They had drawn
up formidable petition which
was numerously signed, wherein they set
forth that, while they had no complaint
to make against the official conduct Of
Mr.. Creswell. yet he did not represent
the South. The Southern Republicans
had contributed so largely to the election
Of Grant that they desired some distinct
recognition. The debt due them might be
repaid by the appointment Of senator
Pool, who was not only a staunch Repub-
lican, but native Of North Carolina.
Armed with this document few Of them
called upon the president, and were
rather chagrined upon being informed
that no changes in the cabinet were con.
templated, and that Mr.. Creswell had
not intimated wish to retire. Since thai.
discontinue tho southerne-. have tried
| to keep the matter quiet,

gard those innocent ones. For myself and
my family 1t could only reopen our
wounds, and add another horror to tho
past, to have to reflect that this man has
died, and that another wife 10 widowed and
other children len fathcrless, besides being
disgraced. believe that many persons
for whose opinions have great respect
think that the punishment should DO re-
duced to imprisonment for life, and to
their petition would earnestly add my
own.
Respectfully yours,

THE saint of South Bend" arrived at
home on Saturday last. An ''impromptu"
reception, the details of which were ar
ranged in Washington City some days be.
fore, was given the retiring statesmen, in
which band, Gags, etc, played the usual
part. A speech, read by the mayor Of
South Bend, assured the distinguished
Credit Mobilieri,e that the confidence of
the people of his town was unimpaired,
that they still regard him as a model
statesman and still believe him
worthy TO be the recipient of
the highest honors the republic has to be-
stow on its worthiest citizens. The e1-
vice presidents reply to the mayors
speech, was labored effort Of an hour and
half, in which he gave the public moth
ing new ne to his connection with Crcdi.
Mobilier or the Nesbitt checks. And SO
Colfax retires INTO private life, neither
better nor worse for his last explanation
at South Bend. The story Of his ext,
from public life may well point moral

THE first number Of the daily Graphic
published in New York city, has made its
appearance. The Graphic ia one of the
wonders Of the age, one, however, which
will be moro than nine days wonder
Success was assured to the Graphic be-
fore its appearance into the world Of
journalism, its publisher having started
with abundant capitol, a fund Of enthusi.
ssm, and having in their control
an invention which enables
them to present, in the
same issue with the narratives OF the in
teresting or important events of the times,
their photographic representations, And
the readers Of the metropolis have daily
paper which gives them not only the his
tory of the times in words but in pictures.
The process by which this is done, is Sc
cret with the Graphic publishers, fact
which will only make tho paper in greater
demand. The journal is not party news
paper, but starts ont as an independent.
