..Eaan,t get Angry,

One of the easiest and most perfectly silly
things in this world, is to get angry, no mat
ter with whom, man or woman, or upon
what provocation. There is nothing to be
gained by it. no necessity for it, and no man
ner of use in it.
And yet strange as it may appear one
half of the world is angry with the other,
and for the most trivial thing too Theolo-
gians get angry and quarrel, politicians, law
yers, doctors and the king and peasant fol-
low close on the heels, with dogs and cats,
birds and beasts, about all sorts OF things
and on all occasions.
IF there is any thing in the world to make
one feel ashamed, it is to get angry. No
man or woman fails to think less OF them
selves after making display of their temper,
it degrades them in their own eyes, and the
eyes of others and, what is worse, blunts
the finer feelings and increases the power OF
passion and rritatibility.
Religion and politics should never be ar
gued by friends-they are sure to end with
being angry with each other, and the more
angry they become the more they show to
the world their ignorance OH either subject.
How senseless for politicians to quarrel-they
are themselves denying the first principles OF
| freedom, of thought, moral liberty, without
which, politics is not worth a toss OF cop
per- It is wrong upon principle. All have
right to their own opinions, and one and
all have a right to convince each other pleas
antly if you can, but don't get angry, keep
cool, aud in nine cases out.of ten you will
gain your point; but, If you let your temper
get the better of your Judgment, all is lost,
and you will be reduced to begging somebo-
dy's pardon before getting through. Angry
words have more to answer for than actions,
they live and have more vitality in them. -
We are apt to think that word or two does
not matter-that we need not trouble our
selves, to be very particular as to what we
say. Sin does its work in many ways-and
sorrow comes from a variety of sources. And
angry words have much to answer for among
the rest. "All men are liars Who but a
man in violent passion would have said
that? The assertion is so sweeping and un-
just that if David had not prefaced it by his
profession: | said it in my haste, y we should
not have understood it. Perhaps the cause
of these words is, that the speaker feels him
ielf aggrieved We often do in this life Of
many trials, we cannot have all We wish for
and so we allow ourselves to become slaves
to our meaDer natures, instead of being mas
ter, simply because we fnd only few things
coming to us-when we should have all, or
at least the lions share.

The birthday anniversary of Mr.. Fred.
w. Born, was celebrated at the residence
of his father, in this Borough, on Friday
evening last, it being Fred's oath birthday.
A number of invited guests were present
and enjoyed the hospitality. "Katie'' and
"Crissy," Mr.. Born's eldest and youngest
daughters, served up an inexhaustible
supply of choice bivalves, in various styles
while the genial Peter and sons "Fritz'
and George dispensed the sparkling lager
to the thirsty. The Stroudsburg Cornet
Band furnished the music for the occasion
and shared the pleasures of the evening.
In the language of the accomplished leader
of the Band, "Smick," we say vive IL
"Fritz," may your birthday come every
month.

CECILIA.

JUDGE PERsHING'S record during the
war is now being sharply overhauled. lie
was then an active Democratic politician,
and was most of the time member of the
Legislature. As such, in 1868, he voted
for bill prohibiting colored people from
coming into this State to make it their
temporary or permanent residence. At
the same time he voted for resolutions con-
demning the emancipation proclamation of
President Lincoln. In 1864 he voted
against the law enabling our absent soldiers
in the field to exercise the right of suffrage
In 1865 he voted against the ratification
Of the thirteenth Constitutional amendment,
which declares that human slavery shall
not exist in the United States or any place
subject to its jurisdiction. In 1866 he
voted against resolution requesting our
members of Congress to support measures
to protect the credit of the Government,
to prevent the payment of the Rebel debt,
to prevent payment for liberated slaves, and
to secure to the nation the just fruits of
the war. As member of the Democratic
State Convection of 1868, held at Harris
burg, while the Rebel army was devastating
the Cumberland valley, he voted TOR the
celebrated "peace and surrender" resolu-
ton All this was done while Gen. Hart
ranft was nobly leading his division in the
field against the national enemy. On
certain civil issues the record of Judge
Pershing is no better. In 1863, while in
the Legislature, he voted against bill to
prohibit the payment of employees of
corporations by orders upon their stores
and in 1865 he voted for bill making the
employees of railroads responsible for ac-
cidents instead of the corporations them
selves. These are facts that are verified
by the public records Of the State, and they
present the Democratic candidate for
Governor in a light that cannot recommend
him to the good opinion of the people,
