The Manifesto of MansAbOut 10 be
Hanged.
Our dispatches yesterday announced the
suicide, on Tuesday, of William Cluck, in
Jail at indianapolis. The Journal Of that
city, Dec. 30, has the following:
The following statement has been handed
the Journal for publication by Harry Nc
Farland, turnkey of the Jail, to whom it
was intrusted for that purpose by William
Cluck, the wile-murderer, who is to s.ter
death next Friday. We shall submit it to
those for whom it is intended without CON-
ment:
TO THE PUBLIC.
As am about to suffer the extreme pen
atty of the law, would ask the people if
they have considered for what 1 am to suf
fel? The jury in the case said for murder;
and while it is true, admit, that took the
life of the woman who was my wife only in
name, would ask if the community at
large can with justice say that was in my
sane senses? And, even if | was, why is it
that was hurried, unprep2red, TO trial, half
sfmy witnesses not having been summoned,
aud the others either criminally not
notified or deliberately overlooked? And
then, TO cap it all, was assigned sttOr-
news whom the lowest Of petty thieves
would hesitate to employ TO defend them,
if they wished to evade the penalties of the
law. Was it because | was poor? l was
friendlass and alone, not ablet buy f.
yorable verdict, as so many more fortunate
ly situated, financially, did before me, 10
the same court. Was it for this that am
TO be made an inhuman public show of, or
is it because the press and the community
demand blood? Have they become like
those of old, who would not be appeased,
but continued TO cry out "Crucify him
Cruelty him !"
If the citizens of Indiana, and more es-
pecialy of this county, can recognize this as
Justice, and reconcile it to their ideas Of
what a civilized, law-abiding community
should be, then l say may God in His
mercy forgive them, and may He not re-
turn totham the justice (?) they have shown
to me. Far better would 1t be for the
| world to return to lis state of UncivilizatiOn,
when even among the rude saVsges law
meant justice.
To deny that the court and jury were in
| fuencad By the continual tsunts. and threats
OF the city press, is useless; and 70 say that
they should have been int.midated by their
threats of lynching, ''mob laws" etc., are
| ridiculous; and that an iBjgsticy that now
is iIreparsbls has been done me By theil
unchrislian-like handling of my case before
the trial, is just as evident; but forgive
them and all others who may have,
through mistaken zeal, as it were,
contributed to my unfortunate, and as l
firmly believe, to nay unjust end, and may
| they, when their time comes, be as well
prepared as I am to say, "No5 nay Will, but
| Thine, On Lord
AS this is the first, also desire to make
it the last communication to the public,
and any sttemp. by interview or otherwise,
made 10 obtain any further expression OF
my feelings will be useless, especially by
those connected with the city press.
| Respectfully, WILLIAM CLUCk.

Fever and Ague,

from which mankind suffer over a large part Of
tho globe. is the consequence OF diseased action
in the system, induced by the poisonous masm Of
vegetable decay. This cxhalation is evolved by
the action OF solar heat wet soil, and rises with
the =atery vapor from it. While the sun is below
the hor ION this vapor fingers the earths sur
face, aud the virus Is taken with it through the
lungs into the blood. There it acts as an irritating
poison on the internal visccra and e1creting organs
Of the body. The liver becomes torpid and fails to
sacrete not only this virus, but also the bile from
the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate
in the circulation. and produce violent conStitu-
tional disorder. Tho spleen. the kidneys. and the
stomach sympathize with the liver, and become
disnrdored also. Finarr, the instinct Of our Or

THE CREED OF THE SwEDENDoRGIANs
The Swedenborgian Messenger gives the
following summary of the doctrine taught
by Swedenborg, and adhered 10 by his
church:
|. God is one in Essence and in Person,
in whom there is "a distinct and essential
Trinity, called in the Word the Father,
Son and Holy Spirit, and the Lord Jesus
Christ is this God, and the only true object
of worship.
2. In order to be saved man must believe
in the Lord and strive 10 obey his COM
mandments.
3. The Sacred Scriptures, or the Divine
Word, is not only the Revelation as the
Lords will and the history of his dealings
with men, but also contains the infinite
treasure of His wisdom expressed in sym
bolcal or CORES pondential language, and
therefore, in addition to the sense of the
letter, there is in the Word an inner or spr-
itual sense, which can he Interpreted only
by the law of correspondence between
things natural and things spiritual.
4. Now is the time of the second coming
VI tut i4bius lOitbOlu III AAiN anu
the establishment of the New Church sig
nitied by the New Jerusalem in Revela-
tions XXI, and this second coming is not a
visible appearance on earth, but new
disclosure of Divine truth, and the pro-
mitigation OF true Christian doctrine, eff
fected by means of the Lords servant,
Emanuel Swedenborg, who was specially
instructed in this doctrine, and commits
stoned to publish ii to the world.
5. Mans life in the material body is but
the preparation for eternal life, and when
the body dies, man Immediately rises into
the spiritual world, and after preparation
in an intermediate state, dwells forever in
haeven or hell, according to the character
acquired In his earthly life.
q. The spiritual world, the eternal home
of man after death, is not remote from this
world, but is in direct conjunction with it,
and we are, though unconsciously, always
in Immediate communication with angels
and spirits.
