ExEctruoli OF FOSTER.—Foster, the ear-hook murderer, was executed at New York on Friday last. The despatch says : Foster awoke at seven o'clock, and par toOk of a cup of coffee,• but ate nothing.— lie was very pale and his strength seemed fast-failing. He_was_attended_ by Rev. Dr. Tyng and Rev. Mr. Schoonmaker, the Chaplain of Sing Sing.' He engaged in devotional exercises until nine o'clock. At eleven minutes past nine he was led out, supported, by Sheriff Brennan and the under Sheriff, Foster walked unfalter ingly to the scaflbid. dlis face had a hec tic flush., Arriving beneath the scaffold, Rev. Dr. Tyng, assisted by Rev. Mr. Schoonmaker, read from the office for the "Visitation of Prisoners" as laid down in the Ritual • of the Episcopal Church the JfiBerere, being the 51st Psalm of David. The service concluded with this solemn form of benediction by the Rev. Dr. Tyng: "Unto God's gracious mercy and protec tion we commit thee. The Lord bless thee and keep thee. The Lord make his face to shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee. The Lord lift up hk countenance upon thee, and give thee peace, both now and evermore. Amen."- During the reading of the service Fos ter stood beneath the scaffold, his head bowed down and his left hand shading his eyes. Rev. Dr. Sehoonmaker shook• hands with Paster, and said : "God bless thee, my friend." At seventeen minutes past nine o'clock the bolt was drawn and the soul of the unfortunate man was launched into eter• A later New York dispatch says: A statement is published based on in formation derived from a Tombs official, that Foster took poison the night before his execution. About eight o'clock yester day morning the matron of the Tombs fmnd Foster sick, aild in explanation he then admitted that he had taken poison.— The man's symptoms in every way con firmed the suspicion. On this account the Sheriff hastened the execution, and Avhile many believed that the duratiomof the re ligious exercises was telling on Foster's li6rves, it was in reality weakness caused by the poison that was acting on hint.— The Tombs physician says that Foster would have died if the execution had been delayed until 10 o'clock.

He was a member of •the Mennonite Church, which sect pre dominates in the vicinity. About two years ago his wife and two Children were taken suddenly sick, about the same time and in the same manner: Medical aid was summoned, and the 'physician? pio tommed the symptoms those of poison.-- How the poison got into the systems of the victims wed a mistery. The physicians examined the premises, and said it might have come from the well, which was adja cent to a stagnant pool of water. Mr. Ea by had the welt throughly cleansed. The victims, however, all died. About two months ago, Mr. Eaby, after eating sup per, was taken with sickness, and mmark ed while drinking the last cup of coffee, that it tasted different from the former cup he had drank, and inquired from the others if theirs tasted so, they answered in the negative. The same physician that attended the others that died was dis patched for, and upon his arrival asked if Eaby had any enemies, to which those who were around answered that he had not an enemy to their knowledge. The physician said the man was poisoned.— He lingered a but few days and died. It is now believed that the whole family was 'intentionally poisoned. It is conceded that circumstances point strongly to the guilt of a certain party in the neighbor hood. rs,,ln his Sunday sermon, Mr. Beech er, touching upon the crime and punish ment of Foster, declared strongly against capital punishment in enlightened and civilized communities It may do well enough in a barbarous state of society, but it does not prevent crime here. He deni ed to society the right to punish when it does not prevent crime. When it li censes grog-shops and drunkenness, when it delays the punishment of crime and thereby etuboldenslhe criminal, and when individuals calmly surrender to robbers in their own homes, they do not deserve to have homes at all, nor does society pos sem the right to punish, and especially it should not punish criminals as beasts, but as men. Mr. Beecher believed that for ty years imprisonment would prevent murder much more effectually than hang ing a man and then forgetting him. lie also deprecated the prominence given to criminal news in the press, and he did ,not belieVe that young persons can read the daily record of crime and not be injured by it. tOrFester's crime has cost the sacrifice of two lives, and the third is trembling in the balance.

Some of our sporting gents have been in pursuit of them, but with what success we have not learned. We noticed one individual with an eye blackened and his face other wise disfigured, the result of overloading his fowling piece on one of these excursions. THE WEATHER.—The weather during this week has been of a most disagreeable character, an admixture or rain, snow, sleet, ice and mud, with a damp chilling air to boot. On Wednesday we had the March e quinox in reality. At an early hour a hail storm of more than ordinary severity set in, which was afterwards turned to a regular . mid-winter snow storm. At 10 A. M. the ground was covered and the "beautiful snow" still falling. • ARRESTED.—We learn from the last Opinion. that E. S. Miller, route agent on the S. P. R. R. was arrested on Wednes day of last week by a Government Detec tive and committed to jail for tampering with the mails and abstracting money from letters. Miller confessed to his guilt. He is respectably connected and has parents and brothers in Fannettsburg, in this coun ty r ANomEn ROGUE.---ADAM S. EICITEL BEIZGER has swindled us out of au account of $11,50 for printing sale bills and ad vertising in February 1872. Adam last spring removed to Catoctin Furnace, Fred erick county, Md. Some few weeks since he returned and collected the money due from his sale notes, but failed to call ac cording to promise and settle his account. If this was the result of oversight And not downright rascality we will make the a mende honorable when the 11.50 comes to hand. A BETTER DAY COMING.—The first of April demands for prompt settlements are inexorable. The "times" are not so "hard" as some people predicted, nor so bad as might have been expected from the short ness of the crops and other causes. There have been fewer failures than for several years past. The people. .at least all pru dent people, have been preparing for the scarcity of money by economic living. By greater care in business, economy, indus try and a reasonable extensiou of time to honest debtors, we can bridge over the present stringency ; and should, .a kind Providence grant a favorable harvest, all will go well again. We would advise all who have pay ments to make, to deny themselves some things if necessary to make payments ; and where it is impossible to pay all, at least pay a part promptly. Those who have money .to lend should not hesitate to put, it in safe hands at a reasonable rate of intetest. Assist worthy farmers and in dustrious mechanics; and foster your man ufacturing interests. Thus the whole com munity will prosper, and a year later, ev ery good citizen will be richer in money and happiness.

As its title indicates, it is devoted to the instruction and enter tainment of the family_circle, and the low price at which it is furnished—one dollar per year—places it within the reach of ail. From a hurried examination of its con tents we have no hesitation iu recommen ding it to our readers, the lady portion es pecially. It is furnished to subscribers at $l,OO per year or $1,50-with-two hand some premium engravings. The specimens before us, "Our Hope" and "Our Joy," are worth the price of the magazine twice over. Mr. G. is a deserving young man, and a triple; and the public we think should patronage him generally. ARREST OF HORSE lIIIEVES.—Two men from Bedford 'county, with Mr. George Smith of the Gap in this county, on Wed nesday night *of last week arrested two horse thieves at the public house of Mr. V. B. Gilbert, (Beautiful View Springs) on the South Mountain, and the next morning passed through town with the captives and their booty, four horses and a buggy, on their way to Bedfoßi. We understand two of the horses were taken from a stable neat Hollidaysburg and the others from Old Town, near Cumber land, , Md. One of the parties arrested was named Lyons, a citizen of Bedford coun ty, and was in posession of his own horse and buggy. He represented that the oth er persuaded him to accompany him say ing that he would sell the horse and bug gy for him. The latter may have been thus duped, but under the circumstances his story seems a little too "thin." FAMILY BIBLE.—Rev. John Fohl, of Chambersburg, assistant agent of th e Franklin County Bible Society, exhibited to us on Tuesday an improved Family Bible containing a Pronouncing Diction ary, which is of great value, and over four hundred engravings. The impression, il lustrations, etc., we consider unsurpassed. Mr. F. is engaged in canvassing the coun , ty, and, according to the society's circular, will supply the destitute, by.sale or gift, as Circumstances may require, with Bibles and Testaments. The Rev. gentleman will be in town for a few days. Families in want of a Family Bible can secure one of him upon the most reasonable terms. AN ACCIDENT.—Mrs. George Foreman in company with her husband met with an accident on Sunday evening last near the residence of Mr. Crilly en the pike West of town. The horse took fright at some clothing on a wagon, and by a sud den leap to the side of the pike throwed Mrs. F. out of the buggy, the vehicle passing over her person. We understand she was very seriously bruised and fbr sometime rendered quite helpless, but for tunately nd' bones were broken. This was certainly a miraculous escape from more serious if not fatal injuries.

HOUSE AND BARNBUI:NED.-0a last Monday the house and barn of J. Wil son McCleary of St. Thomas township, occupied by Geo. W. McCleary, were en tirely destroyed by fin. Mr. McCleary went to St. Thomas on that night and Mrs.' McCleary, not wish ing to remain alone, went across to Wil son McCleary's. to remain and left the house unoccupied. When Mr. McCleary returned home accompanied by his brother, he found the stove cold and concluded to have sbnae thing to eat and go to bed. While eat ing, one of them remarked that he smell ed something burning, and upon going up stairs and opening the door of one of the rooms he found it in a sheet, of flame.— Upon going outside it was found that the barn was also on fire. Nearly everything was consumed be fore it could be removed. The barn con tained a considerable amount of hay, clo verseed, grain, &c. There is hardly any doubt that this was the work of an incen diary. Mr. McCleary aiqo lost $4OO in money, which he believes to have been stolen by the person or persons who fired the buildings. The property was insured. —Spirit. itEirThe following are the result's of the election on the Local Option question in such counties in the State as voted on Fri day, and as far as heard from : Cumberland county, against,license by it large majority.

USURY LAWS.—Three of the New England States, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Massa chusetts have abolished the usurylaws.— The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, one of the most prosperous and enlighted states of the Union, after five years experience, speaks through the President of - th - c os ton Board of Trade, as to the results and effect of the new system. He says that the average rate for the use of money is lower than before, and the amount of loanable capital has greatly increased, and that bor rowers are supplied with greater ease at lower rates ; and further that the change has essentially profited a large class of bor rowers byjnereasing the volume of availa ble capital in the market at lower rates--- and that the tendency is in the direction of ease and steadiness—the changes being more gradual than formerly. He says spasmotie cluznges are unknown under the new order. Altogether the new law is so satisfactory-that-the-restoration-of the us ury laws, in his opinion, would be utter ly impossible in Massachusetts. The Hon. John Jay Knox comptroller of the Currency, remarks in his last an nual report of December, 1872, that the rates of interest fixed by the State laws are not governed by any sound economi cal or business principles. That the rate an States except the three States above named, has remained for a half a century at a uniform stand ard, which is less than the present rate of the Bank of England—while in the States of Minnesota and Virginia the rate is 1:m -ite_cLto_tweLve_per_eent consin and Missouri to ten per cont.—in Alabama and Ohio to eight per cent.—in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Kentucky the rate is fixed at six per cent.—and New --York-at-seven-percentHe-saysitivould be difficult to give any gond reason why the rate of interest should be limited to ten per con . in ling on— o six per cent. in the neighboring cities of Philadel phia, Baltimore, Wilmington and Raleigh and to twelve percent. just across the Po tomac in Alexandria 'and the . capital of Virginia. - Will some-of-our-distinguished-finan cial fathers answer some of these questions and inform the people of Pennsylvania why they should not expect to see the same results follow the repeal of_the_Usu ry laws, as in MaSsachusetts. IT IS THE Fasmos.—Thin, scraggy, badly-mnde women invented hoop-skirts and puffed out dresses which gave the hips huge proportions, and they said : "It is the fashion." Beautifdly-formed women, who req ed no stuffing, consented to the disfigure ment, and they, too, said : "It iz the lash- Short little women invented tigh beds and high . lead dresses, making the face in the middle of the body, and they said : "It is the fashion." Tall and graceful women with a sigh, said : "It is the fashion," and se made themselves too tall, giving' the dwarf* the stature that nature, with.ut high heels and high head:dresses, had be stowed upon them. Women with large, fat feet, thick ank les and low instep's said, "We must hide our feet and ankles." They invented long dragging dresses, and said : "It is the fash ion." Then all women with dear little feet said, "0 dear I it is the fashion, and we, too, must wear long dresses." That long dresses have a certain style about them is not to be denied, and a pret ty woman can manage to show just a glimpse of a small fuot, a high instep and a well turned ankle. Dresses with trails may be worn in a drawing-room (the car pet supposed to be.clean) and in a car riage, but in the street, dragging through mud and dirty water, making the sock ings filthy, it is the very height of folly and extreme of 'yulgarity. The opposite of cleanliness in a woman is a crime So great that, like the absence of a law a gainst paracide in the code of Lycurgus, it is not to be supposed possible.—Ex. REMEDY Felt MAD-DOG BITE.—A highly respectable gentleman of this ,eity advanced in years, informs us that there is an infallible remedy for bite of a mad dog put up and sold by one of the Drug gists at Hanover, Pa.,—that it has been thoroughly tested in ever, possible nay, on man and beast. and has never failed in a single instadice. Our friend informed us that some years ago when ho, farming in Adams county, Pa., two of his cows and five of his hogs had been bitten by a mad-dog, and that he applied the remedy to the cows and four of his hogs and they recovered entirely, while the fifth hog, to which he did not ap ly the remedy, in or der to satisfy his mind fully as to the merits of the Medicine, was seized with hydrophobia and died a horrible death. Such a remedy as this, for such a dread ful disease, should be made known far and wide.—Maryland Union. &nom,Ecrons.—lt is perhaps not generally known by sehoul directors that an act was passed two years ago by the Legislature of this State, making it obli. gatory upon directors to publish yearly the receipts and expenditures of their re sptctive school districts. Without aco rn pliance with this law, taxpayers may with propriety refuse to settle their school tax.
