Foster, who has not been out of the Tombs sli.ee he was sentenced in May lait Judge Csrdozo in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, alter nis conviction ior vqb mur of Mr. Putnam, was taken Into Court est eras to listen to bis final sentence, time by the General Term of the Su preme court. Thai uourt, meaniim-, naa heard hia appeal, and had deoldnd against The only point of Mesara. Porter and Barilett, Fostera counsel, Waa that Judge Caidozo was wrong in refusing to charge if Foster only Intended to malm Putnam It was murder in tne second degree, though Judire Cardozo did cbarge that the might find a verdict for murder In the second degree, but tbat if Foster only intended to malm hi, victim it was manslaughter.

The Judges of the General Ttrui wbo beard tbe appeal arei with Judge Cardozo. holding that the definition murder in tne aioond decree, a killing eneagid in the commlnBlon of a felony, meant a felony other tban that which multi din the death, and that theref ire a blow lib Intent to maim if it caused deatn Was not such afclouy as to constitute murder in tbe degree. Foster, as ho appear In Court yesterday, was very lit- changed since the time ot his trial. It was a quartet to eleven when Judze, Ingrabam and Barnard appeared, and Mr. Wil lum O.

Bartlett took bis aeat near the ptihoier, to whom, einoe Jude Stuart', death, he ha, been a most faithful counsel. There was a short delay while the f.innal paper, were being aigned. Then District-Attorney Garvin called atUnti to the case, reviling briefly tbe date, of the aentcnce and the recent athrmance, and moved resentence of the prisoner. Judge Ingrabam then sentenced Foster. calling to blm tbe fact that his appeal bad betn mtiflyona point of law, taat tbat had been overruled, and tbat whatever tbe sympaihy'of the Court for bla family might b- tbey bad but one duty to per-foim to fix the date of the execution.

Ue tberefi re aenteiced bim to be banged on the '22d day of March, four weeks from to-DjOi row. While standing to receive his sentence Foster-appeared sitting waa plainly much affected. Fiater, since bis contlnemtnt in the Tombs, baa seldom been lu a more cheerful mood than thia morning. When Informed Sberlffa were outside waiting to convey blmtoCouit beaaluted tbe keepera with bla usual courtesy. When he returned fiom Court and passed fr ru tbe carriage to the Tombs be did not appear a whit altered, but looked, if any thing, heartier and atrnrger than when he first entered the Tombs.

The case will now go to tbe Court of Ap peala, Foster's counsel being confident tbat the question of law will be there decided in his favor.
