THE GAZETTE. Wednesday, March 26,1873. FOSTER'S EXECUTION. Dispatches of'the 21st give the following account of the hanging of Foster, the “car hook murderer,” on that day; Foster awoke at seven o’clock and par took of a cup of coffee, but ate nothing. He was very pale and his strength seemed fast failing. He was attended by Rev. Dr. Tyng and Rev. Mr. Seoonmaker, Chaplain of Sing Sing. He engaged in devotional exercises until nine o’clock. At eleven min utes past nine o’clock, he was led out, sup ported by Sheriff Brenman, and tie Depu ty Sheriff. Foster walked unfalteringly to the scaffold. His face had a hectic flush. When he arrived beneath the scaffold, Rev. Dr. Tyng, assisted by the Rev. Mr. Scoon maker, read the 51st Psalm. As the sol emn words were read, in which the Rev. Dr. Tyng besought God “to open the eyes of mercy unto this Thy servant,” the scene was hushed and impressive in the extreme. During the reading of the service, Foster stood beneath the scaffold with his head bowed down and his left hand shading his eyes. Rev. Dr. Schoonmaker shook hands with Foster and said “God bless thee, my dear friend.” At seventeen minutes past 9 the bolt was drawn and the body rose into the air. The condemned man gave one slight struggle, so slight as to be almost im perceptible. There was an absence of the usual movements of the shoulders. There was a slight contraction of the lower limbs, anda barely perceptible motion of the hands. After hanging five minutes the body was lowered about nine inches, and a minute thereafter about a foot further. Twelve min utes after the bolt had been drawn, the pulse ceased to beat. Foster had died almost without a struggle. It was evident during the reading of the services that he was rap idly sinking and scarcely able tostaud. The physicians noticed this, and Rev. Mr. Schoonmaker had but just shook hands with Faster, and said, “Good bye ! God bless you, my friend !” when the fatal ,bolt was drawn. After being allowed to hang little over twenty minutes, the body was lowered into the coffin and conveyed iuto the dead house of the Tombs, whence it will be- taken to-day to the residence of Foster’s widow. At twenty minutes before ten a crowd of deputy sheriffs and others of the one hun dred and fifty person; who had obtained ad mission to witness the execution, slowly made their exit from the scene. The New York World. —This paper we consider one of the best Democratic •journals published North. It is excelled by none in the way of news or politics.— We mean by this, that it keeps thoroughly posted on these points, and gives through its columns the same carefully prepared for its readers. The editorials are able and elab orate. The World has been a leading Democratic journal North for years, and is to day fighting the plunderers of our laod with as much earnestness and zeal, as can be done by men of such talent as edit the New York World. New Advertisements.— J. G. Bailie & Bro., Augusta, advertise a full line of Carpets, Curtains, &c. Walton, Clark & Cos., Augusta, advertise a large stock of desirable Groceries. Messrs. Blackwells & Franklin give no tice of dissolution of copartnership. Demorest’s Monthly. —The April number of this popular periodical comes to us fresh as a Spring daisy. It is very much enlarged, and every way improved, and wo guess the ladies are right when they say it contains as much genuine information as all the other Fashion Magazines put together. “Young America” for April fulfills the promise of its past. It is an excellent Juve nile Magazine, bright, live and instructive, as well as entertaining; full of amusement for the little folks. The Huston Case. —The committee of trial appointed by the Baltimore Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, to whom the case of the Rev. L. D. Huston was referred, reported unanimously yester day, that they had lound him guilty of the charge of immorality, and, under the au thority vested in them by the rules, had ex pelled him from the church. The commit tee upon whom this painful and most re sponsible duty was devolved, consisted of thirteen of the leading and most distinguish ed members of the Conference; and, as they were clothed with power to take final action in the matter —except as to the right of ap peal to the General Conference, a right which will probably not be exercised in this instance —Bishop Doggett formally an nounced to the assembled Conference the sentence of expulsion. Thus ends, worthi ly lor the Conference, and for the church it represents —but shamefully for Dr. Huston an investigation which, from his solemn asseverations of innocence, the number of friends he had rallied to his support, and the revolting nature of the testimony against him, has given rise to much discussion in the church where Dr. Huston once occupied a hi"h position, and among the public gen erally. —Baltimore Gazette. For the Gazette.J TRUTH— No. 2. In a tormer article under the above cap tion, I proposed to consider truth as an element of human character in a two fold light, namely, truth of declaration, and truth of assumption ; the former thought, truth of declaration, was reserved for a sub sequent article, which I now propose to consider. According to all true philosophy, truth of declaration must be predicated upon truth of assumption, just as effect is dependent upon cause ; for certainly no one will doubt that lie who assumes a false character will if necessary to accomplish his pluus, make false declarations. By truth of declaration I simply mean that whenever a person speaks he should speak nothing but the truth. It may be possible that there are times when it would be better not to speak at all, not even the truth, as no good is to result to any one thereby, but upon the contrary harm; but even in such cases if a person opens his mouth, his declarations should be the truth. The peaceful and harmonious operations of the moral and intelligent world, in all its departments, whether domestic, social or public, are to a very great extent depend ent upon a faithful declaration of truth. — How often is it the case the peace and hap piness of families, communities and States are destroyed, and discord, strife and blood shed ensue, simply on account of false declarations. While it is true that a man is entitled to no special credit for always speaking the truth, as he only discharges a plain duty, yet I will say that it requires true moral courage to prompt him to utter the truth at all times, especially uuder circumstances which press heavily upon him. How fre quently is it the case that in the earthly career of men, they find themselves in great straits , and really feel that they have reach ed extremities, where in every direclion they behold nothing but impassable barri ers, and how strong is the temptation to falsehood, when in this way a chance of escape is offered; but in just such cases will the truth shine more brightly, as the pure metal only flows out, and leaves the dross behind, when subjected to the intens est heat. Truth conveys the idea of perfection and completeness, and admits of uo additions to or diminishing from, and hence appears in all itt native beauty and attractiveness, when tree from all attempted ornamentation; but it is sometimes the case that its beauty is greatly marred by false embellishments, and how silly all such attempts; as great as would be the folly of an attempt to “gild refined gold or paint the .lily.” There is a boldness and directness of expression and a plainness of words employed in the utter ance of truth ; but sometimes it is the case that a person appears anxious to impress his declaration, and hence he employs aux iliary epithets apparently with a view to lend additional weight to his words, but such attempted strengthening of words of truth| have a directly contrary effect, that of weakening the declarations, A man should always be satisfied when he has spo ken the truth, just in a sufficient number ol words of plain and expressive meaning, without attempting to strengthen his declar ations with a number of strong auxiliaries, because he, by such a course, will stand a chance to excite suspicion as to the truth of what he says. Again, great violence may be done to truth by a disposition to exaggerate the declaratious of others. It is almost a max im among men, that a narrative is continu ally gathering as it passes from one to an other. A man may make a certain state ment in truth ; but let it take the rounds, and receive accessions every time it passes from one to another, and by the time it gets back to the original author, he could scarce ly recognize iu it any marks that distinguish it as his production. There is a peculiar expressiveness in the cut of the eye, the intonation of the voice, and the immoderate emphasis given to cer tain words, the effect of which may often be to impart unto the words an intensity of meaning far beyond that intended by the author. This same violence to truth is exhibited in an opposite direction. It is often the case that the words are in accordance with tiuth, yet their force is almost neutralized by the addition of unfavorable insinuations and dark inuendocs. Who has uot listened to a statement with a degree of interest, un til the significant “if” and “but,” accompan ied with the sarcastic grunt, and poisonous hiss, have either caused him to turn away in disgust from the foul slanderer, or left an impression utterly false upon his mind. Perhaps it would be difficult to estimate the damage which iu the main are true, yet weakened, poisoned, and distorted by false attachments. Persons guilty of such low arts and tricks are to be dreaded as the most dangerous foes, for while they with a villainous smile extend one hand in token of warm friend ship, the other holds concealed a dagger to thrust under the fifth rib. I would appeal especially to the young upon this important subject. The great business of your life is to mak s character. It is this that will distinguish you, whether for weal or woe. Then be sure that you commence this great work right. If you expect to build an honorable and lasting monument, look well to the foundation ; dig deep until you reach the solid rock of truth, and erect your structure upon this immovable foundation; then let the wildest storms of misfortune and adversity arise, and by and by the world will be convinced that you are a true man, the noblest work of God. And above all things else be sure and buy that divine truth which emanci pates from sin ; then, when the earthly tab ernacle fails, a house above, which will never fai', will await you. Sojourner. GLASS YARN. It appears that the accounts which have been published of a glass composition, pro duced in Vienna, which may be made at any time into curled or frizzled yarn, are fully verified, and important improvements have also been effected in the adaptation of the same to practical uses. These frizzled threads are said to surpass in fineness not only the fiuest cotton, but even a single cocoon thread, and their soft ness and elasticity arc like that of silk tint. Recently this woven glass flock has beea used as a substitute for ordinary wool wrap pings, for patients suffering from gout, and its use for this purpose has been, it is sta ted, successful; chemists and apothecaries have also found it useful for filtering. The smooth threads are now woven into texible fabrics, which are made into cush ions, carpets, table cloths, shawls, neck ties, cuffs, collars and a variety ofother garments &c., and they may likewise be used for wea ving the figures in brocaded silk or velvet. Asa material for tapestry, for covering fur niture, for laces, embroidery, hosiery, &c., it is believed that this glass tissue will at some future time occupy a most prominent place. In softness the glass yarn almost approach es silk, and to the touch it is like the fiuest wool or cotton. It possesses remarkable strength, and not only remains unchanged in light and warmth, but is not altered by moisture or acids. Spots may readily be removed by washing. Beiug non-inflamma ble and incombustible, as well as having great brilliancy and beauty of colors, it is specially suitable for dress fabrics—such fabrics, for this purpose, being much warm er, too, than those of cotton or wool; at the same time they are of a low specific gravity. A Fearful Visitor. —The Paris Soir relates the following story : A M’me Bonneau, living in the Rue i3es cartes was sitting in her parlor a few duys since i/waiting her husband’s return Urdin ner, when a man of wi and and haggard ap pearance entered, and, seating himself opposite to her, addressed her in the follow ing terms; “I am a great doctor. I can effectually cure all headaches. I have heard that you suffer from that cause, and lam come to cure yon.” The lady, per ceiving that she had to deal with a mad man, prudently seemed to fall iuto his humor, and asked what was his method of treatment. “Simple enough, uiadame,” said he, drawing a razor from his pocket.— “I cut off the head, and then, after having well cleaned it, I replace it upon the shoul ders.” Upon this he prepared to suit the action to his words. M’me. Bonneau, with great cooluess, professed her readiness to submit to the operation, but suggested that she should fetch a towel from the next room to prevent her dress being stained.— Her visitor assented to the reasonableness of this suggestion, and she left the room, locking the door behina her. Upon her return with some police officers, they found that the unfortunate maniac had cut his own throat, but not fatally. It was ascer tained that he had escaped from a lunatic asylum at Clermont les Pres, and had been vainly sought lor dursng a month or two. South Carolina. — While the Legisla ture of South Carolina has been considering the expediency of repudiating the State’s debt, it has nevertheless steadily pursued the same practices that made the contempla tion of such desperate remedies possible.— The Treasurer reports, that before the war the annual taxes ot the little Commonwealth were only §4oo,(>uo, but now, with her rev enues almost exhausted, her resources re stricted and an array of official corruption choking the life out of every healthy indus try, the plundered and disheartened citizens are called upon to furnish taxes to the amount of §1,800,000 for this year. Nor is this all. New accumulations are rapidly made even before the interest upon those demanding payment can be met, and the Treasurer foresees a deficit of over §300,000, almost as much as the whole burdeu before the war, which must be satisfied out of next year’s levy. Of course it is an impossibility to meet this demand naturally, but the offi cials know to perfection bow to have their arbitrary levies met by some means. A fail ure to pay taxes involves a sale of land to carpet-baggers at the prices they put upon it, and the policy which in times past seem ed likely to depopulate Ireland, is being car ried out still more offensively there. If tax es fail to satisfy the cupidity of merciless carpet-baggers, they understand the art of raising the wiud with bogus railroad bonds, as their former practices have proved.—Bos ton Post. < ♦ The Last of J. Wilkes Booth.— Three of the vertebrae from the neck of John Wilkes Booth, dried and hung on a string, with a portion of the spinal cord preserved in alcohol, are preserved in the Army Medical Meseum, (Ford’s Theatre), Washington, labeled respectively 4,086 and 4,087. It is a little singular that all that now remains above ground of John Wilkes Booth should find a last resting place under the very roof where the deed was perpetra ted—not a hundred yards from the spot from where the fatal shot was fired— JPasA ington Star. Billy Forrester has been interviewed at the Joilet prison, and promises to put the authorities on the track of the Nathan mur derer if he is approached in the right way. He says: “I know the whole plot, and know that certaiu New York officials are implicated in such a way as to make it necessary that none but detectives of Kel so’s choice shall ever be put on the case. — They have dow spent several thousand dol lars and are no nearer the solution of the mystery than at the beginning. Let prop er persons approach me, affair will no louger be a mystery.” The Harper Murder in Kentucky. —About a year ago Jacob and Betsy Har per were murdered in Kentucky; the mur derer was not discovered, and now, at Georgetown, Adam Harper has brought suit against J. Wallace Harper for saying that he was the wretch who killed the rela tives of both. J. W. Harper says that “from all the circumstances and the bad character of Adam Harper he is led to be lieve him guilty, and will continue so to be lieve unless he proves the contrary.” As to the question of character here brought up, eight witnesses give Adam a bad uame and twenty-three a good uame. Damages claimed are §500,000. Haven’t the Money. —The Sun pub lishes a list of the folks who have lately leen fooled by the last sawdust swindlers the New York police have unearthed and broken up. It is a pretty long one, and the profitableness of the scheme may be judged of, when we say that the books of the gang show for one week in November last, they scooped in §6,200 in clean cash. The swindle is an old one, being nothing more than an invitation to the greenhorns of the country to buy counterfeit notes at a tremendous discount, and then good money being received, send them a box of sawdust in return. We find no Georgians and very few Southerners in the list which may be ac counted for in two ways : First, they are either too “careful” to engage in such business, or second, that they haven’t the cash to risk. Wo incline to the latter be lief; for what with keeping their smoke houses and corn cribs in the West, and working themselves gray and bald, and killiug their mules and horses, mukiug cot tou to maintain the aforesaid smoke houses, and corn cribs on a sound fiuaneial they find themselves short all the time, and for everything else. A few cas ual games of “draw” are about the only out side enterprises they find themselves able to indulge in. There a man has some show for his money—provided his early education has not been shockingly neglected, of course. Woman Suffrage. —Woman suffrage has come to grief in the Massachusetts Legislature, where a resolution to amend the constitution, in order to bestow this boon upon the ladies, was defeated by a vote of 88 to 142. This is au exhibition of less strength than this “reform” has had on former occasions. The debate on suffrage has been prosecuted for a week in the Leg islature, the Chamber being fully occupied by the female and male advocates of the measure. The Herald, of Columbia (Ky.) tells of an exciting horseback race ot: the pike near that town between Mr. C. it. Page, Deputy Sheriff, and a lady on whom he was endeav oring to execute a process. The lady, per sisting that she would not receive the paper or hear it read, used the switch very vigor ously on her horse, but the officer, being mounted on the better animal, caught u > with her and continued in her company un til he had read to her the contents of the official document which he held. That offi cial is worth his salary, every’ cent of it; but his gallantry won’t wash worth a cent. The Illinois House, by a vote of one hundred aud three to four, adopted resolu .iods censuring the Illinois Congressmen who voted tj increase their salaries.” + A little boy in school the other day, gave one of the best definitions ever given to economy, when asked what was the meaning ot economy, replied: “Paring potatoes thin.” ■ ■ ■ “Can’t yon love your neighbor as yourself, Johnny V “Yes, ma then adding reflec tively, “if he don’t keep a dog that tries to bite little boys.” FOR S-ALE.
