By nil bunntn laws, the uvitt who Inker nnotlier’a Ufa in defending Isis own is held guiltless of murder; Ida deed is nee utitotl Justifiable in recognition of tm'0&t saving inotinct witivwliic!: the creator lias accotnimn.'ed Uni gift of life loull ids croniures. With the enrlfest consciousness of |pung animals tiiis in stinct appears In umulity and shrinking from danger, real or imaginary; and down to tiw louffet order of beings, a woun 1 tl i’.ing will exert its last strength to vf u hiring its existence blotted out. As flip list- human species, wo Imre it on ficrip.uro i uthorily that ’.‘all tlmt a burn hath will Ito give for his life.” In view of this, who that is unaware of the facts would expect to so con stantly Hear of man and women, pad even children, finding life unbenrablo ■nd ending oil? What a surprising vio lation of tliis innate principle it acorns, when for tills or. that cause, and often for no carno that is evident, some cliooso death rather than life! id. Suicide isnot entirely confined totbo human species, ■ There are numerous 1 well authenticated instances of different animals deliberately killing themselves when circumstance* rendered life no longer desirable. A recent traveler in tbo tropics tells of coming at various times upon the skeleton of a species of poisonous.serpent Within' a circle of leaves of the prickly cactus, and later the riddle was solved by his seeing some monkeys engagkl in surrounding a sleep ing reptile with the spinous vegetation. Upon awaking and finding itself im prisoned and pll Ha attempts to escape Tuttle, the serpent presently took refuge in stinging its own body and dying at once. It Is commonly reported tliat the some thing happens when a poisonous snake is hemmed in by fire, in t> spasm of desperation at finding no chance of es cape, it turns its means of self defense into means of self destruction. ,The animal kingdom is a law unto itself. Not so with man. He is subject to the higher law of duty and accounta bility; and no environment can be called hopeless to one who believes in a gra cious, overruling power and the better life to come. A portion of the alarming number of current suicides, it must he 1 confessed, awaken only the sincercst pity in overy susceptible' and benevolent heart, and probably there are very many more coses of thla kind, were tlio secret causes that have actuated the victims brought to UghL Yet wherever human law is founded on the divine law, self destruction must ait a crime. A mangt buildings are wads own in the senJIthnr .. on fire and bum them down with impu nity; much lestods his llfe-da possession which cannot bSwstored—so exclusively person;'1 that he has the right to end it by violent* iq on hour of discourage ment or disgust. Tho yearly list of suicides in some of the countries of Eurojto U appalling to contemplate. Tbo waters of tho Seine give up their dead daily, and drowning is but mio among tho common methods for sliuffling off'tills mortal coil. Pas sion, impetuosity and, above all, infidel ity, aro prominent factors in recruiting tho army 4 suicides. Statistics of all nations show that occasionally tliero oc curs wliat has been called on epidemic of suicide; though whether tills is an illustration of tho foice of example, or tbo result of somo general impelling force, bucIi as temperature during tho exhausting heat of summer, remains an unsettled question. That the month of July has long been noted for tho largo number of its suicides favore tho latter conclusion. Of direct causes among young people, affairs of tho heart, lovo matters tlmt have taken an unfortunate turn, must bo reckoned tho leading one. Very often, too, tho circumstances at tending llieso cases arc unspeakably pa thetic. Next cotno losses of money and business, friends aud health.
