SIGNAL TRIUMPH OF JUSTICE.

The prompt finding Of the jury in
the Cluyerius case will be ratified gen.
eIally by all who have read the evi-
dence adduced. That the culprit has
been guilty Of the double crime Of So
duction and murder, and under the
most outrageous circumstances, was
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1885-06-07

as clearly revealed as could be by cir
cumstantisl evidence. With
respect to the CTuverius case, the cir
cumstantisl evidence was more varied
and much stronger than that upon
which Webster was convicted and we
rejoice, therefore, that jury has been
found in Virginia that does not require
proof furnished by eye-witnesses Of
an act Of murder, but accept pre-
sumption Of guilt sustained and attest
ed by circumstantial evidence scarcely,
less conclusive against the guilty
wretch who deliberates and perpetrates
murder in secret 10 eyade the punish
ment Of his crime. And so Cluyerius,
the seducer and murderer Of his vic
tim, aye, Of his own unborn child
guilty Of a treble crime-will atone
with one life for all the evil he has
wrought against the living and the
dead; against the victim Of his sins
and the good order Of society. That
will be small stonement, it must be
conceded /; but it is all that the law re-
quires, and no less than it should de-
mand.

CLEARLY GUILTY.
washington Critic.l

washington Critlc.
Public sentiment will doubtless ap.
prove the verdict. 1t is not long age
that man was lynched in Virginia for
the commission Of an unprovoked mur-
der on the ground that under the forms
Of law he was certain to be cleared on
the plea of insanity. That the people
will approve the conviction of per-
fectly sane man, who is clearly guilty
Of the crime with which he ia charged
and responsible for the act, goes with
out saying.
CLUvERIUs CONVICTED.
Norfolk News.l
The strain is over, and the author oI
one of the most brutal murders and re-
voting seductions in the history ofVir-
ginia has been convicted OF murder in
the first degree. The jury has done
its duty. Let there be no unnecessary
delay in awarding the felon the punish
ment his crime merits, and let this be
warning to others.
RIGHTEOUS VERDICT.
Wilmington IN. C.) star.l
The verdict in the Cluverius trial
was most righteous one. A sly,
hypocritical, canting fsllow-playing
pious, and all the time debsuched and
bloody-minded villain. His conscience,
II be has one, Eill add TO the terrors Of
his . taking Off and viii lash him
with scorpion stings.

The verdict Of guilty rendered in the
Cluverius case is a surprise, and yet is
what should have been expected. That
justice should defeat the wiles Of more
criminal lawyers, whose only purpose
is to defeat the law, is gratifying, while
the verdict shows that the true men of
Virginia cannot be easily swerved from
the path Of duty.

What Hanging ls Iike

The following account of the sensa. tions of hanging is sent us by a cores. pendent who is member of kind f, Suicide Club, and was actually. he says. partly hung the other day, in the presence of several friends:
 A good stout rope had been obtained This was securely fastened to the rafters ot the barn roof pulled at the rope with my hands to make sure that i, would not break Then permitted my to be blind folded and mounted on a chair. For the moment, admit, I was weak enough to turn pale and tremble. | soon, however, recovered my presence ot mind. Putting my head through the moose, ] gave the signal. felt tha chair drAwa from under me. There was a great jerk, and felt violent pain in my neck, as though my scart had all of a sudden become tight. Now comes the most curious part of my experience Alter the first feeling of torture, which | admit was decidedly very severe, I los, consciousness. seemed to be trans ported into new world, more beautiful than anything imagined by the poet. was swimming, methought. in sea of oil
 The feeling was exquisitely delicious. As
 swam easily and without effort through the liquid mass noticed afar eff an island of the most glorious emer ald green in color. This it vas my wish to reach. l swam lazily and con.entedy on. The sea kept every instant changing its hue, though it remained of the ssme sub stance throughout. At one instant it was a mass of gold, as the sun was shining brilliantly on it. The next moment it was vivid blood red; but there was no'hing terrible or disgusting in this new color. It kest changing, in fact, to all the hues of the rainbow, yellow and red being the predominant tints. got nearer and nearer to the isle. AsI ap- preached it there sprang out suddenly from the ground a number of people strangely trans6gured, whose faces seemed to be known to me at last reached the land. A magnificent chorus ot voices, human and those ot birds burst forth. closed my eyes in ecstasy. tioated calmly on to the shore, and lay as child in its cradle, slightly weakened from, l supposed, the enervating effect of the oily matter in which had been swimming. A, last opened my eyes me magic charm was at once dispelled, The divine harmony ceased. The faces were still peering at me with an expres- sion ot eager curiosity, but perceived that they belonged to the members of our society. The pain in my neck was great. was new in entire possession of my senses. My friends had fortunately cut me down in time. was still weak too weak to at once relieve my friends cunosiy. When l was able to speak told them my experiences. Though drew charming picture of the bliss which had felt, not one of them would consent to try my experiment.

Half Million Shortage.

PHILADELPHIA, June Further
investigation into the affairs of the
collapsed Shackamaxon Bank shows
that it's condition is even worse than
was expected. The total shortage may
reach 100000. so that even with
the legal assessment on the stOckhold-
ers Of $4,000, double the amount of
the capital stock, there will be hut suf-
ficient funds to pay the depositors. The
directors made superficial examina-
ton Of the accounts ell Saturday and
found things in most discouraging
condition. The books were all in con-
fusion. and it will require several days
expert work to clear matters so that an
accurate statement may be got at. The
experts began work to-day.
