orliig. Since tlio. perpetration of the.
crime, says the Quincy, Illinois Whig,
the man lids been declared insane, and
-the authorities of Hannibal have sent
him,to the jail at' Palmyra. Day be
fore yesterday ho penned the following
statement of the alfnlr In'Herman had
requested tho jailor to.“give It to tho
highest -Judge In tho country to ho
translated.’’ Mr. John' Haunt, a Jus
tice of the Poaco,.translated the paper,
which Is as follows : .
“I, son of God, formerly Sebastian
Hupfur, wish to say a few words to the
world. I belioVe I wiiB the father of
Are children ; one of them died, an
other was strangled by its mother.—
She was crazy; that was the cause of
tho death of both children. God, our
Father, willed. It thus ) his will was
done, and she is free. She has secured
a divorce from me, I bolievo this.to
bo the cause of the death of the third
child, 1 killed it, it is true, but I was
not tho 'cause of her death, and, there
fore, do not feel myself guilty of crimo.
1 believed to have seen the devil in her
(tlie child.) 1 licit! made a covenant
with God, the Father, to catch tho
deyil if l should have tin opportunity.
I now believe her mother is dead, and
I have seen her mother's devil in her.
After she was divorced from me, she
wnnted to marry me again. I hitcl
sworn by God,.oiir Father, never to
live with her again, I did not wisli to
change my good spirit lor a had one,
nnd therefore did not wjsli to break
my word. I still have two children;
they belong to the male sex, nnd are,
therefore, sons of GOcl.. The three
that are dead Were of the female sex,
and were dnnghters-of their mother.
1 came into my blind; God, the Fath
er, gave it lo me, that He' was once
married, and IMS wile secured a di
vorce from Him 1)0001180 He did not
obey her. His wife’s name was Devil.
Man says Adam and Eve were in tire
paradise ; and I swear that life wht) fol
lows me will get there. Sitin' says
thefe was a certain apple tree in para
dise, to ent the fruit thereof (Jod, the
Father, had forbidden his children
God,' Zngl'Father, died of grief ngjl
sorrow. He was an industrious man
nnd a good gardener. His divorced
wife left Him nnd went to another land,
and left Adam a.id live with niin.—
After tho Father died the devil return
ed to paradise and desired her children
to obey her. She took nif apple from
tlie forbidden tree and gave-it -to.Kvo
to cat. Site took it and ate it; then
she gave one tfe Adam, hut Adam would
not eat, ho would not obey the devil,
and, therefore, lie became odious to all
persons—tli.-.t is, to the devil and tlie
womau, ami so am I. Man docs not
believe in Christ beeauso lie was not
ns firm ns I. lie did not complete his
work. He was n coward, nnd was not
t.lie man that I an), to follow up what
He laid promised ilia Father, to-wit:
to catch the devil. IIo Wag-not firm ;
the devils have caught Him and Me
had to die. If- you do not believe me

The poor maniac, after drinking the
blood of llio child, said that lie would
never again want for food or nourish

In the city it means embellishment,
rivalry, social gatherings, flirtations,
