PedrOiSlnS.

The evil with men, is, that they lik,
to be teachers of others.
Being ready with words arises simp-
ly from not having been rcprovei.
There are eases of praise which could
not have been expected, and of re-
proach, where the parties have been
seeking to be perfect.
Praise and blame arc sometimes Civ
ell without any proper ground for them.
Prompt action is necessary at the
right time.
Great men make NJ mistakes in
matters ofpropriety an;l Righteousness.
The great man, is he who does not
lose his child's heart.
Evil speaking Is sure to bring with ii
evil consequences.
What is right is the Supreme pursuit
of the superior mau. PEDRO.

THANKSGIVING and How We EDj0yed II.

| EDITOR STAR:-The westward bound
train, due at this place at Q p. m, Nov.
25th, found quite number Of Nirvana
people waiting at the stopping place.;
for we had made up our minds to en-
joy our Thanksgiving ut the Townsend
House, i'm Baldwin. With full antlc-
ipation Of good time We stepped
aboard Mt the command ofthe conduct
or, and Mt few sharp pulls Mt the whis-
tie, VIC were off. 1t was dark on the
outside; but pleasant car, with gentle
men for train men, we were all right.
| We had but few moments to enjoy
ourselves, before that "Sam." sung out
Baldwin," and we found Elliott al
ways ready to attend the wants of the
travelling public.
A short walk found us at the Towns
end House; and while the ladies were
laying aside their wrappings, Pedro
and some more Pedroes stepped into
the office, to pay their l5cts. and get
ticket for the dance; and, also, their
admittance to the dining room to get
their "hash." We found Mr.. Towns
end behind the bar, an expert in the
"biz," and Pedro smiled (while others
took smilc) to see how well they had
got everything fixed up for the accom-
mediation of the guests.
Up stairs we found about 10 couple
stepping to the music Of Jordan, Of
Howard City, and Brott and BasOm, Of
Baldwin,; and the toc-limbering air
made us feel grand and we resolved
to enjoy ourselves, and we did.
The supper was splendid. Oysters,
turkey, cakes and Punishable loaded
to overflow with things tempting to all
appetite made keen by the exercise of
the evening. Had mine host sup
posed crowd WIS coming down oil
him, in the large numbers, / think he
coinmodate more, and our acc0mmo-
dations would have been more COM
plete, and have given quite number
better satisfaction.
Not wishing to find fault, but think
ing little advice wholesome, Pedro
would say if "mine host" had got
cheap man to have handed out eight
ming water" and paid more attention
to his guests, all would have passed or
"merry as marriage bell" still, we
will not find much fault. We will say
Capt. Townsend and the other,e tie
manly floor manager, you done your
part; and if Baldwin gets up another
Thanksgiving, we hope to he able to
attend.
Hoping all will remember the Re
union, the 9Th of January, 1876, Pedro
puts OH his hat and takes the 5:,,0 train
home, feeling as though all had been
dealt with as well as could he expect
cd. PEDRO.
