TALMAGE DISCOURSES UPON THE EVILS OF SUICIDE. h[he Great Preacher Says It Is the Worst of All Crimes—Infidelity and Self Destruct. tfon—A Christian's Life, Death and Ixa< Mortality. 1 BROOKLYN, Aug.12.—Rev. Dr.Talmage, who is now abroad, has selected as the f3tibjeet for today's sermon through the press the word Suicide,""the text being Vt.cts xvi, 27, 28: "He drew out his sword rat'd would have killed himself, supposing hat the prisoners had been fled. But ul cried with a loud. voice, saying, Do thyself no harm." Here is a would be suicide arrested in his -deadly attempt. He was a sheriff, and - *ecording to the Roman law a ball i Y him - •!elf must suffer the punishmen . dim an escaped prisoner, and if the prism , • r break- ing jail was sentenced to be one e egeoned for three or four years then 1 'at sheriff must be endungeoned for thrre or , four years, and if tho prisoner bre:, .!ng jail peas to have suffered capital pu ':' thment then the sheriff must suffer copied pun- ishment. 1 Tho sheriff had received especial charge to keep a sharp lookout. for Piaui and Silas. The government had not hed confidence in bolts and bars to keep safe these two 'clergymen, about whom there seemed to pe something strange and'supernatural. ' Sure enough, by miraculous power itbey are free, and the sheriff, waking out pf a sound sleepeand supposing these min- listers have run away, and knowing' that they were to die for preaching Christ, and kaselizing that he must therefore die, rather than go under the executioner's ax on the morroweind suffer public disgrace re- solves to -precipitate his own decease. But before the sharp, keen, glittering dagger of the sheriff could strike his heart one of the unloosened prisoners arrests the blade by the command, "Do thyserf no harm." • ' le olden time and *here Christianity had not interfered with it suicide, was considered honorable and a sign of cour- age. Demosthenes poisoned himseif when told that Alexander's embassador had de- inanded the surrender of the Athenian. or- ators. 'secretes killed himself rather than i3urrender to Philip of Macedon. Cato, kather than submit to Julius Omar, took • his own life, and after three times his wounds had been dressed. tore them open and perished. Mithridatee killed himself •rather than submit to Pompey, the con- queror. Hannibal destroyed his life by poison from his ring, considering life un- bearable. Lycurgus a suicide, Brutus a 'suicide. After tho disaster of Moscow, Na- pbleon always carried with him a prepa- ration of opium, and one night his servant heard the_ex-ernperor erise, put something In a glass and drink it, and soon after the groans aroused all the attendants and it Was only through utniost mediedskill he Wa.s resuscitated from the stupor of the opiate. A Spreading Evil. Times have changed, and yet the Ameri- can conscience needs to be toned up to the ilubject of suicide. Have you seen a paper in the last month that did not announce the passage out of life by one's own be- hest? Defaulters, alarmed at the idea of exposure, quit life precipitately. Men los- ing large fortunes go out of the world be- cause they cannot endure earthly- exist- ence. Frustrated affection, domestic in- felicity, dyspeptic impatience, anger, re- morse, envy, jealousy, destitution, misan- thropy, are considered sufficient causes for absconding from this life by paris green, by laudanum, by belladonna, by Othello's dagger, by halter, by leap from the abut- ment of a bridge, by firearms. More cases bf "fele de se" in the last two years of the World's existence. The evil is more and More spreading. A pulpit not long ago expressed some doubt as to whether there was really any- Oling wrong about quitting this life when It became disagreeable, and there aro found In respectable circles people apologetic for the crime which Paul in the text arrested. I shall show you before 1 get through that Suicide is the worst of all crimes, and 1 Shall lift a -warning unmistakable. But In the early part of this sermon I wish to admit that some of the best Christians that ever lived have committed self de- Struction, but always in dementia and not responsible. 1 have no more doubt about their eternal felicity than 1 have of the Christian who dies in his bed in the de - henna of typhoid fever. While the shock bf the catastrophe is very great I charge fill those who have had Christian friends tinder cerebral aberration step off the boundaries of this life to have no doubt about their happiness. The dear Lord took them right out of their dazed and frenzied state into perfece•Safety. How thrist feels toward the insane you may know from the kind way he treated the demoniac of Gadara and the ,child luna- tic and the potency with which he hushed the tempests either of sea or brain. Scotland, the land prolific of intellectual giants, had none grander than Hugh Mil- ler, great for science and great for God. Ile came of the best highland blood, and he was a descendant of Donald Roy, a rutin eminent for his piety and the rare 'gift of second sight. His attainments, climbing up as he did from the quarry and ' the wall of the stonemason, drew forth the astonished admiration of Buckland and 11Inrchison the scientists, and Dr. Chal- Mors, the theologian, and held universities epellbouud while he told them the story bf what he had seen of God in the old red sandstone. Allowance. Made. , That man did more than auy being thil ie,t ever lived to show that tho God.of the hills is the God of the Bible, and ho struck his tuning fork on the rocks of Cromarty un- til he brought geology and theology ac- cordant in divine worship. His two books, pntitled "Footprints of the Creator" and the " Testimony of the Rocks," proclaimed kho banns of an everlasting marriage be- tween genuine science -and revelation. On this latter book he toiled day and night through love of nature and love of God un- til he could not sloop, and. his brain gave way, and he was found dead with a re - !velvet by his side, the cruel instrument baying had two bullets—one for him and the other for the gunsmith who at the cor- oner's inquest was examining it and fell dead. Have you any doubt of tho beati- fication of Hugh Miller afterhis hot brain had ceased throbbing that winter nightin his study at Portcbello? Among the mightiest of earth, among the mightiest of heaven. No onceever doubted the piety of Wil- iam Cowper, the author of those three great hymns, "Oh, For a Closer Walk With God!" ‘'What Various Hindrances We Meet!" "There Is a Fountain Filled With Blood," William Cowper, who shares with Isaac Watts and Charles Wesley the hid honors of Christian hymnology. In ypochondria he resolved to take his own ife and rode to the river Thames, but Ood ieves in a mysterious way rnswondths to perform. Replants his footsteps in the sea • And rides -upon the stOrm. Blind unbelief is sure to err And scan his work in vain. God is his own interpreter, And he will make- it plain. A Leap to Perdition. While we make this merciful an pighteons allowance in regard to those wh ' Were plunged into mental incoherence declare that the man who in the use of h reason by his own act snaps the bond be tweon his body and his soul goes straigh into perdition. Shall I prove it? Revel tion xxi, 13, "Murderers shall have the part in the lake which burneth with fire an brimstone." Revelation xxii, 15. "With out are dogs and sorcerers and woremon gers and murderers." You do not believ the New Testament? Then perhaps yo believe the Ten Commandments, "Tho shalt not kill." Do you say all these pas sages refer to the taking of thelife of oth ers? Then I ask you if you are not as re liponsible for your own life as for th iife of •others? . God gave you a specie trust in your life. He made you the ells todian of your life as he made you the cus iodian of no other life. He gave you a Weapons with which to defend it two arra to strike back assailants, two eyes to wet° for invasion and a natural love of lif Which mightever 'to be on the alert. .As Bassination of others is a mild crime mini Pared with the assassination of yourself because in the latter case it is treachery to an especial trust; it is the surrender o a castle you were especially appointed t keep; it is treason to a natural law, an Lt is treason to God added to ordinary murder. To show how God in the Bible look -eel upon this crime I point you to the rogues picture gallery in some parts of the Bible the pictures of the people who have com nutted this unnatural crime. Here is th headless trunk of Saul on the walls o Eathshan. Here is the man who chased little David -10' feet in stature chasing 4 llere is the man who consulted a clairvoy ant, witch of Endor. Hero is a man who, whipped in battle, instead of surren dering his sword with dig14ty, as inany tnan has clone, asks his servant to slay him, and when the servant declines theu the giant plants the hilt of the sword in the earth, the sharp point sticking up ward, and he throws his body on it and expires, the coward, the suicide! Here is Ahithophel, the Machiavelli of olden times, betraying his best friend David in order that he may become prime minister of Absalom and joining that fellow in his attempt at parricide. Not getting 1vhat he wanted by change of politics, he 'takes a short cut out of a disgraced life Into the suicide's eternity. There he is, the ingrate! Worse Than Judas. Here is Abimelech,practically a suicide. He is with an army, bombarding a tower, When a woman in the tower takes a grindstone from its place and drops it up- on his head, and with what life he has left in a cracked skull he commands his armor bearer, "Draw thy sword and slay Ino, lost mon say a woman slow me." There is his post mortem photograph in thelbook of Samuel. But the hero of this group is Judas Iscariot. Dr. Donne says o was a martyr, and we have in our day apologists for him. And what wonder, in this day when we have a book revealing Aaron Burr as a pattern of virtue, an& in this day when we uncover a statue to George Sand as the benefactress of litera- ture, and in this day when there are be- trayals of Christ on the part of some of bis pretended apostles—a betrayal so black • It makes the infamy .of Judas Iscariot White! Yet this man by his own hand hung up for the execration of all the ages, Judas Iscariot. All the good mien and women of the )3ible left to God the decision of their earthly terminus'and they could have Said with Job, who had a right to commit puicide if any man ever had, what with hie destroyed property and his body all kflame with insufferable carbuncles and everything gone from his home except the chief curse of it—a pestiferous wife—and. row: garrulous people pelting him with comfortless talk while he sits on a heap of ushes, scratching his scabs with a piece bf broken pottery, yet crying out in tri- tunph, "All the days of my appointed time will I wait till my change come," • The Prime Cause. Notwithstanding tho Bible is against this ovil and the aversion which it creates by the loathsome and ghastly spectacle of those who have hurled themselves out of life, and notwithstanding Christianity is egainst it and the arguments and the useful lives and the illustrious deaths of Its disciples, it is a fact alarmingly patent that suicide is on the increase. What is the cause? I charge upon infidelity and agnosticism this whole thing. If there be ho hereafter, or if that .hereafter be bliss- tul without reference to how we live and how we die, why not move back the fold- ing doors between this world and the next? And when our 'existence here becomes troublesome why not pass right over into Elysium? Put this down among your inost solemn reflections and consider it after you go to your homes: There has [lover been a case of suicide where tho *orator was not either demented and • therefore irresponsible or an infidel. I ehallenge all the ages, and I challenge the Whole universe. There never has been a ease of self destruction while in full ap- preciation of his immortality and of the fact that that immortality would be glo- Roils or wretched, according as he accept- ed Jesus Christ or rejected him. You say it is business trouble, or you y it is electrical currents, or it is this, or It is that, or it is the other thing. Why kot go clear back, ray friend, and ac- k n owledge that in every case it is the ab- ilication of reason or the teachiog of in- Ildelity, which practieMly says, "If you lon't like this life, get out of it." And r°u will land either in annihilation, where there are no notes to pay, no persecutions io suffer, no gout to torment, or you will land where there will be everything glori- bus and nothing to pay for it. Infidelity elways has been apologetic for self immo- lation. After Tom Paine's "Age of Rea- hwas published and widely read ore was a marked increase of self ilaughter. Apologists For Suicide. A man in London heard Mr. Owen de- liver his infidel lecture on "Socialism" Ind went honr and sat down and wrote hese words: `Jesus Christ is ono of the 'Iveakest characters in history, and the Bible is the greatest possible deception," Ind then shot himself. David Hume Wrote these words: "It would be no crime for me to divert the Nile or the Danube from its natural bed. Where, then, can be the crime in my diverting a few drops of blood from their ordinary channel?" And having written the essay he loaned it to a friend. The friend read it, wrote a letter of thanks and admiration and then shot himself. Appendix to the same book. Rousseau Voltaire, Gibbon, Montaigne, under certain circumstances, were apolo- Cic for self immolation. Infidelity puts no bar to people's rushing out from this world into the next. They teach us it does not make any difference how you live here, or go out of this world, you will ' land either in an oblivious nowhere or a glorious somewhere. And infidelity holds the upper end of the rope for the suicide, and aims the pistol with which a man blows his brains out, and mixes the strychnine for the last swallow. If in-! tbaelltv co.W...d Parrs" tbs3 d&y. and versus& ound a man seated on some goods at the ery point from which he expected to pring, and rode back to his home, and hat night threw himself upon •his own ife, but tho blade broke, and then he anged himself to the ceiling, but the rope arted. No wonder that when God merci- illy delivered him from that awful de- entia he sat down and wrote that other ymn just as memorable: • tne majonty or people that ft does not make any difference how you go out of the world you will land safely, the rivers would be so full of corpses the ferryboats would be impeded in their progress, and the crack of a suicide's -pistol would be no more alarming than the rinnble of a street car. Ahl infidelity, stand up and take thy sentence! In the presence of G.od and angels and men, stand up, thou monster, thy lip blasted with blasphemy, thy cheek scarred with lust, thy breath' foul with corruption of the ages! Stand up, satyr, filthy goat, buzzard of the nations, leper of the centuries! Stand up, thou monster infidelity! Part man, part panther, part reptile, part dragon, stand up, and take thy sentence! Thy hands red with the blood in which thou hest washed, thy feet crimson with the human gore through vehicle thou hast waded, stand up and take thy sentence! Down with thee to the pit and sup on the sobs and groans of families thou hest blasted, and roll on the bed of knives which thou hast sharpened for oth- ers, and lot thy music be the everlasting miserere of those wham thou bast damned! I brand the forehead of infidelity with all the crimes of self immolation for the last century on the part of those wholad their reason. Make the Best of Things. My friends, if ever your life through its abrasions and it molestationshould seem to be unbearable, and you are tempt- ed to quit it by your own behest, do not consider yourselves as worse than others. Christ himself was tempted to cast him- self from the roof of the temple, but as he resisted so resist ye. Christ come to medi- cine all our wounds. In your trouble I- prescrib e life instead of death. People who have had it worse than you will. ever have it have gano songful on their way. Re- member that God keeps the chronology of your life with as much precision as he keeps the chronology of nations, your death as well as your birth, your grave as well as your cradle. Why was it that, at midnight, just at midnight, the desteeiying angel struck the blow that set the Israelites free from bond- age? The 430 years were up at 12 o'clock that night. The 430 years were not up at i 11, and 1 o'clock would have been tardy and too late. The 430 years were up at 12 ' o'clock, and the destroying angel struck - the blow, and Israel was 'free. And God knows just the h.our when it is time to . lead you up from earthly bondage. By : his grace make not thoworstof things, but the best of them. If you must take the pills, do not chew them. Your ever= lasting rewards will • accord with your earthly perturbations, .just as Caius gave to Agrippa a chain of gold as heavy as had been his chain of iron. For your asking' you may have the same grace that was given to the Italian neartynAlgerius,who, down itt the darkest of dungeons, dated, his letter from "the delectable orchard of: the Leonine prison." Divinely Arranged. And remember that this brief life of ours, is surrounded by a rim, a very thin but: very important rim, and close up to that rim is a great eternity, and youhad better keep out of it until God breaks that rim; and separates this from that. To get rid of the sorrows of earth, do not rush into greater sorrows. To got rid of a swarm of summer insects, leap not into a jungle of. ' Bengal tigers. There is a sorrowless world, and it is so radiant that the noonday sun is only Cis lowest doorstop, and the aurora that light up our northern heavens, confounding astronomers as to what it call be, is the waving of the banners of the procession come to take the conquerors home from church Militant to church triumphant, and you and I have ten thousand reasons for -wanting to go there, but we will never get there either by self immolation or ine- penitency. .All our sins slain by the Christ who :came to dothat thing, we want to go in at just the time divinely arranged and from a couch divinely spread, and then the clang of the sepulchralegates be- hind us will be overpowered by the clang of the opening of the solid pearl before us. 0 God, Whatever others may choose, give me a Christian's life, a Christian's death, a Christian's burial, a Christian's immor- tality!
