On Thursday evening Judge Rosbereugh and Elijah Svecie arrived, and 1 kad the pleasure of hearing from Mr. Steele that my Visit to the lava beds, ne was certain, had done more to establish confidence between the Indians amd whites than apything that the Peace Commission had yet ac- complished.

Marbacher was attacked by three men and dangerously stabbed last evening, on Fifth street, in this city. Five bad wounds were in- Micted avout his head amd neck, and fears are en- tertained for his life, Two of the three assailants were arrested this morning. ‘Their names are Owen Trayman and Tony Gritin. The third, Mat. O'Hare, who, it is supposed, did the werk, has not yet been taken.

If anything can be said to be certain Senator Sumner says he will to-morrow present Boutwell’s credentials as Senator from Massachusetts. The Demination of W. A. Richardson as Secretary of the Treasury wil! follow. Whether he will be con- firmed is not so certain. He hus the good will of Senator Sherman, but Senator Conkling will, it is said, to-mght arraign himself against his appoint- ment. The war Senator from Michigan will also have something to say about finance and finances, He gave a lunch to-night to prepare the opponents for their work, Smith Appointed Indian Comm Who is Smith? ‘The nomination of the reverend agent of the Miv- nesota Ohippewas to be Indian Commissioner sur- Prised the Senate, and the question having been asked, “Wheis E. P. Smith?” it was at first said that E. Peshine had returned from Japan, where a year’s experience in the study of Japanese law had qualified him to head the Indian Bureau. Secre- tary Delano hastened te the President to learn who Smith was, aud all the Executive could tell him was that General Howard endorsed him as a great pacificator, one who had recently exercised a sooth- ing influence over Cochise. ‘The Senators from New York, to which State he 1s credited, are un- willing to be charged with the appointment, and declare they know no such person. Massachusetts will not adopt him, though he has been longest a citizen of that State, and the Senators from Min- mesota, where Smith lived as Indian Agent, decline te assume responsibility for him. It is probable no action will be taken if his name is allowed to re- main. The effice has been tendered to no less than six prominent men, all of whom have positively declined. Mr, Delano was deliberating ona sey- enth when the President executed his flank move- ment. Deputy Collector James to Succeed Gen- eral Jones in the Post Office. It is thought that General Webster, of Chicago, Will be appointed Assistant United States Treasurer atthat city. Several letters were yesterday re- ceived frem prominent politicians in New York recommending @ successer to General Jones in jioner— The resignation of General Jenes is to ‘take effect on the Ist of April, altheugh his present commis- sion will mot expire till May. He fixes the time of resignation in order that his suc- cessor may then commence with a new quarter, the Post Offiee accounts being settied quarterly. It is almost certain that the name of Mr. Thomas L. James, now Deputy Collector of Customs, as his successor, will be sent te the Semate to-morrow, the preliminary papers having been sent by the Postmaster Generai to the President for reasons not yet known. ‘This is a deviation from the civil service rules. Major Mor- gan, the Deputy Postmaster, will be retained, owing to his experience in the affairs of the office. The Pressure on the President for Ap- pointments to Office. The antechamber at the White House was tilled | with visitors yesterday afternoon, when the Presi- | dent, to save his temper and enjoy a bit of fresh alr, quit his office. A few minutes after he appeared | on the Avenue on herseback, and was haflea by one Of the administration Senators, who said he was just going to the White House to sce him on impertant business, “Call to-morrow, and I will be better able to judge of its importance,” was the President's re- Ply, as he gently spurred his horse and turned away from the Avenue, for fear he might meet those whom he most desired to avoid. During the past | ‘few weeks the President says.ne has known more of the vexations of office than during the past four years. The changes incident to a new administration did not perplex him, becanse good | men were to be appointed and inefficient ones | turned out; but now Senators and Representatives | daily importune him to make this and that change | in consideration of services rendered and because the present imcumbent has enjoyed the salary and honors of office long cnough. It is aot according ! to civil service reform, urgues the President, te make these changes; for if the official was incom- peteat the change should have been made long | ago; if competent the best interests of the service | require the retention of experienced and honest oMciala. Then follows a long bill of exceptions. “But, Mr. President, this is a pecultar case, and I | will briefly explain,” says the impertunate Con- | gressinan. Every case is alike, and he enly peca- modated. How many disappointed Congressmen there are no one can tell. The President is most anxious for the te to adjourn and give hima rest.

Butler, lately confirmed as Surveyor of the Port of New Orleans, left for that city last night to enter upon the duties of the efice, the oath having been administered by Collector Casey. No Pay for the Indian Inspectors. Secretary Delano finds, on consultation with the accounting officers of the Treasury, that no appro- priation will be available during the present fiscai year for the payment of the salaries and expenses of the Indian, inspectors, whose appointment is di- rected by a clause in the last Indian Appropriation bill. The President will therefore defer appointing any of said inspectors until after the 30th of next June. The same section authorized the President to abolish all the existing eight Indian superintend- ents and to establish four new superintendencies in his discretien. ‘The indications at present are that all will be abolished and that none will be re-established, as the view is likely to be taken that inspecters will answer the same purpose as superintendents throughout the country.

William Foster rose yesterday at an early hour and took @ very slight breakfast. He was silent and pensive, and the shadow of that death which now seems to be inevitable is already darkening upon him. It is apparent that he himself has no hope left, and almost the power of regret of that Mfe for which he has fought so hard seems to have left bim with nothing but the bitterness of an awful fate before him, That he js composed is evident, but every now and then a shudder convulses him for @ moment and shows that the scene which will take place in a few days is ever before his eyes. Yesterday was his last Sunday on earth, ana at half-past ten in the morn- ing he attended divine service in the room of the prison which is put apart on Sunday for a chapel. The two deputy sheriffs went with him, ‘The chaplain went through the Prot- estant service and preached a short sermon in which nothing, however, was said which could shock the 1eelings of the condemned nan: It was a talk on the general benefit of a religious life and the necessity of always keeping God before our eyes. Foster appeared to listen attentively, but his downcast eyes every now and then wandered as if other thoughts besides those of the preacher ob- truded themselves upen lim. His unhappy wile was beside him, and he claspea her hand in calm despair while the minister breathed the words of peace and redemption. After the service was over Foster returned to his cell, and his wife pecenpen od him. Her devotion to him is whole-souled and intense, and she seems to feel the terrible position of her husband even more than he himself does, Her grief isnot so suppressed as his, and every now and then she sobs aloud, like a heart-broken creature, winle he attempts to calm her, All the suffering of his nearly two years of parce is ag nothing to the all-absorbing and terri- ple grief of the present, when death 1s approaching, and every moment that passes brings dreadfully nearer the awiul one when his eyes shall close upon this world and open again only in eternity, Governor Dix’s Action.

Brennan in Foster’s cuse, as it is the duty of that officer in all such cases to execute the sentence of the Court at the expiration of the time fixed in a reprieve. It is supposed that the Governor’s decision in the mat- ter will be made only to the friends of Foster who have applied for the exercise of Executive clem- ency in his behali.
