 W1hXVA sailed the brig BlacB l.s: jks ks1Ss% Swan which bore upon. it's decks the happy Mander family and our friend Dickory
 The sackcloth draperies of Lucilla with the red cord lightly tied about them, had given place to very ordi- nary gown fashioned by her mother and herself, which added so few charms to her. young face and spark . ling eyes that Dickory often thought that he wished there were some bushes on deck so that she might stand be- hind them and let him see only hei face, as he had seen it when first he met her. But he saw the pretty face a great deal, for Lucilla was very anx- ious to know things, and asked many questions about BarbadOes, and also asked if there was any probability that the brig would go straight on to that lovely island. without bothering to stop at Jamaica.
 Our young friend still wore the naval uniform, although in coming on the brig he had changed it for some rough sailors clothes But Lucilla had be- sought him to be again brave lieu tenant.
 Davids was at the wheel and Man der stood near him. These old friends had not yet finished talking about what had happened in the days since they had seen each other. Mss. Man der sat, not far away, still making clothes, and little Lena was helping her in her chiIdlike way. Lucilla and Dickory were still talking about Bar badoes. There never was a girl who wanted to know so much about an is- land as that girl wanted to know about Barbadoes.
 K Suddenly there was a shout from above.
 t Whats that?' asked Mander.
 "A sail,' said Davids, peering out over the sea but able to see nothing. Lucilla and Dickory did not cease talk ing. At that moment Lucilla did not care greatly about sails, there was so much to be said about, Barbadoes.
 There was good deal of talking for ward and after awhile the captain walked to the quarterback. He was a gruff man and his face twas troubled.
 "I am sorry to. say he growled, Fthat the ship we have sighted is pi- rate; she flies the black flag"
 Now there was no more talk about the Barbadoes, or what had happened

50 far 50 good, 7 said Capt Ichabod. II am very glad that I did not bring down my cutlass on you, which I should have done. bedad, had 1t not been for this young woman
 Now up spoke Mir Delaplaine. We have found you, Dickory," he cried. ''but what can you tellsus of Maj. Bon- net?"
 Aye, aye!" added Capt. Ichabod, there's another one we're after; where's the runaway Sir Nightcap?"
 "Alas!" said Dickory, "I do not know. escaped from Blackboard, and since that day have heard nothing. I had supposed that Capt. Bonnet was in your company, MT Delaplaine"
 Now the captain of the Black Swan pushed himself forward 'Ts it Capt. Bonnet, lately of the pirate ship Re- venge. that you're talking about?" he asked If so, I may tell you some thing about him. I am lately from Charles Town, and the talk there was that Blackboard was lying outside the harbor in Stede Bonnet's old vessel, and that Bonnet had lately joined him. did not venture out of port until. had had certain news that these pirates had sailed northward. They had two or three ships, and the talk was that they were bound for the Virginias; and perhaps still farther north. They were fitted for a long cruise"
 Gone again." exclaimed MT. DeIa- blaine in a ehoarse voice. Gone again!''
 TaL % oIr
 Gone north of Charles Town he exclaimed, that's bad, bedad, that's very bad. You are sure he did not sail southwark he asked of the cap- | tain of the brig.
 That gruff mariner was in a strange state of mind. He had just been cap- | tured by pirate, and in the next mo- ment had made, what might be very l profitable sale, to 8 respectable mer- | chant, of the goods the pirate was about to take from him. Moreover the said pirate seemed to be in the employ of said merchant, and altogether things seemed to him to be in as fearsome a mix as they had seemed to Capt. Icha- bod, but he brought his mind down to l the question he had been asked 1 No doubt about that" said he; there were some of his men in the town-for they were afraid of nobody and they were not backward in talk ing"
 That upsets things badly" said l Capt, IchHbod, without unol0uding his brow. With my slow vessel and my empty purse, bedad, don't see how I am ever goin' to catch Blackboard if he has gone north. Finding Blackboard would have been handful of trumps to me! but the game seems to be up, bedad."
 The captain of the brig and Icha- bod's quartermaster went away to at- tend to the transfer of the needed goods to the Restless. Mander, with his wife and little daughter, were standing together gazing with amaze | ment at the strange pirates who had come aboard, while Lucilla stepped up to Dickory, who stood silent, with his eyes on the deck.
 Gan you tell me what this means?' said she
 For a moment he, did not answer, and then he said: T don't know ev- erything myself, but must presently go on board that vessel"
 'tWhat!" exclaimed Lucilla, step ping back "Is she there?"
 "Yes.' said Dickory

CHAPTER XXvTI. A PROPOSED PIRACY.

APT ICHABOD was in
 lnS high feather. He whis- AsszzA--J tied, he sang, and he kept his men cleaning things. All that he could do for the comfort of his passengers he did, even going so far as to drop as many of his "bedads" as possible Whenever he had an op- portunity, and these came frequently, he talked to MT Delaplalne, address ing a word or two to Kate If he thought she looked gracious. For the first day or two Dame Charter kept below She was afraid of the men, and did not even want to look at them if she could help 1t.
 "But the good wOman's all wrong s said Capt Ichabod to Mir. Delaplaine; "my men would not hurt her. They're not the most tremendous kind of pirates. anyway, for could not afford chat sort I have often thought that ' could make more profitable voyages if had a sayager lot of men I'll tell you, sir, we once tried to board big Spanish gallson, and the beastiy for eigners beat us of, bedad, and we had 6 hard time of it gettin' away. There are three or four good fellows in the crew, tough old rasoa1s who came with the sloop when bought her, but most of my men are but poor knaves, and not to be afraid of"
 That afternoon Capt. Ichabod found Kate by herself on deck and he made bold to sit down by her; and before he knew what he was about, he was telling her his whole story. She lis tened carefully to what he said. He touched but lightly upon his wicked nesses, although they were plain enough to any listener of sense, and bemoaned his fearful passion for gam ing, which was sure to bring him to misery one day or another.
 When have staked my vessel and have lost it." said he, then there will be an end of me"
