A Suicidal hIpulu.

There seems to be something like sui.
Edal epidemic at the present time. With,
An the past year scores Of persons have
ended their lives by violent means. 1t
seems cowardly if not wicked, for per
sons to put IN end to their existence. All
should endcavor to carry out thu will ii
the Creator. They should cndcavor to
live for the benefit Of others, and prove
useful members Of the community. The
mind must be completely unbalanced be-
fore any one can commit suicide. Only
the most exCruci0ting pain or extreme
poverty can Justify self murder. Pclsons
should endeaVor to live for tho good of
Others, If not for their own enjoyment.
Christianity teaches submission to suffer.
lug and q conformity to the Divine will.
Persons must have lost faith in God before
they can consent to lay violent hands on
their own lives, Those who are afflicted
should take courage and not dwell Oh
imaginary Ills, nor torture mole hills into
mountains, above all they should never
attempt to cross the bridge before they
come tott. Faith and courage should take
the place Of despond5ncy and hopcfulncss
that Of despair

THE Senate Committee on Privileges
and Elections has appointed Messra Bur
rowa Chandler, Spooner, Faulkner and
Godfrey, a sub committee to consider the
petition Of citizcns Of Delaware, asking
for the appointments Of q joint committee
to inquire into the Delaware political con.

tics are conducted in our State, 1t would
be quite interesting as we'll as startling II
some light could be turned on, that would
put stop to the disreputable manner In
which our elections are conducted and the
partisan manner in which every political
right of our citizens is treated. There
is plenty to investigate, but would 1t
amount to much after the Investigation
was nader We doubt 1t.

Decadeuce of Law.

The hanging of VIM. Andrews, colored,
by amob at Princess Anne. Md, on We'd
nesday morning, is another evidence of
the increase of lawlessness on the part of
the citizens of our country. This man
had assaulted Mrs Benjamin 7. Kelley,
but he had already been convicted aud
sentenced to be hung by the Court. and
the law should have been allowed to have
Its course Men make sad mistake when
they unite to summarily hang any one for
any crime, as the mobile of to-day might
possibly become the victim Of the mob to-
morrow We should rely on the authori-
ties for protection against the criminally
inclined, otherwise the innocent may &C.
casionally suffer instead of the guilty. A
good citizen cannot counteuance mob vio'
lencc, but will uphold the authorities in
the discharge of their duties on every oc-
taiion. Mobs should be put down at all
hazards and at all costs. When command
ed to dispersc they should do So In case
Of refusal, the entire military force Of the
State should be used ii necessary, to com
pei obedience. We regret the necessity of
force, but if the law cannot be sustained
there may soon be no security for tho safe
ty OF persons or property. We are thank
full that the people of our State arc law
abiding and we trust that the example Of
the mobs in Ohio and Maryland will not
prove contagious.

TO the Editor of the Press:

To the Editor of the Press:
Lewiston, August 81.
[ see by a copy of your paper this morn
ing that Mr.. Farnham is quoted as say
ing that there was considerable grumb-
ling in regard to the entries of herds of
cattle from Canada at the late New
England Fair. Ae / had the honor, of
being in charge of the cattle at the fair
failed to hear of much being said against
the admittance of cattle outside of New
England and in every instance told
the parties that if we could not breed as
good in New England as outside we must
breed better; that competition was the
life of any fair and that no fair would
be successful that was run in the interest
of any breed or breeder. Open the gates
and let them all in and it we cannot
stand the competition let us go home
and go to work and breed up and on
and better and come next year prepared
to compete with all that wants tot,enter
the lists. The Canada herd of Ayrshires
did not sweep the deck in that class by
any means, and if they do another year
they will have to breed up and on II you
play marbles do not complain if you lose
them.
Respectfully,
