We have heard all sorts Of excuses
for suicide. Some kill themselves
| from grief, others from misfortune,
others from remose, Others from unen-
durable pain, Others from dependency,
others from Ill health, and, in TACT,
every cause under heaven except joy.
1t remained for our neighboring county
OF Hancock to produce the man who
hadthe nerve. to terminate his existence
from excess Of joy. His name was
John w. Lambert, and his local habi-
tation was in the vicinity Of Wilson's

Miller,a buxom and lively lass Of that
vicinity, and to all appearance was
too happy to swap places with the
president. The newly marie couple,
as usual in such cases, passed the night
together, and when John made his
appearance the next morning, in reply
to friendly salulation, heesclaimed,
COLLIN just too happy to live!"

was the last he uttered, for, proceeding
straight to the stable, as all thought
to look after his horse. in n moment oil

met with very serious accident, by
being run over by fast train on the

that time the people have been In dread
Of a repetition OF such a catastrophe,

company that better protection from

that time that sufficient warning was
not given. The engineer Of each train
