All his learning and refinement OF
manner had not prevented young EDen-
ezer Hornigold from being as hsd at
heart as mis- brother, which is saying
a great deal, and because he was
younger, more reckless, less prudent
than be Of ripper years, he had incau
tiously put himself in the power OF
Morgan and had been hanged with
short shrift Benjamin, standing up
on the outskirts Of the crowd jestins
and roaring around the foot Of the
gibbet, with a grief and rage in his
heart at bis impotency, presently found
himself hating his old captain with a
ferceness proportioned TO his devc-
ton in the past, for he had appealed
for mercy personally to Morgan by
the memory of his former services and
had been sternly repulsed and coldly
dismissed with a warning that he
should look to his own future conduct
lest, following in the course of his
brother, he should find himself with
his neck in the moose.
Morgan, colossal in his conceit and
careless in his courage, thought not to
inquire, or, if he gave the subject any
consideration at all, dismissed it from
his mind as Of little moment, as to
what was the subsequent state Of
Hornigold's feelings. Hornigold could
have killed Morgan on numberless oc-
casions, but a consuming desire for a
more adequate revenge than mere
death had taken hold Of him, and he
deferred action until he could contrive
some means by which to strike him IN
a way that he conceived would glut
his obsession Of inexpiable hatred.
Hornigold had reformed-outwardly,
that is-and was now engaged in the
useful and innocent business Of pilot
ing ships into the harbor, also steering
their crews, after the anchors were
down, into the Blue Anchor tavern, in
which place his voice and will were
supreme. He had heard, for Lord Car
lingford had made no secret Of his
orders, that his old master was to be
arrested and sent back to England.
The news which would have brought
ioy to a lesser villain, in that it meant
punishment, filed him with dismay.
for such was the peculiarly Of his
hatred that he wanted the punishment

be Of such character that it should be
neither speedy nor easy, and he luSted
most Of all that Morgan should know

whom he was indebted for il all.

1Q6 news OF the long WlSneO 1Or
downfall of the tyrant had been spread
abroad and formed the one topic Of
conversation in Port Royal and the vi
ciniy that day. Now the work Of the
day was over. and. as usual, the Blue

EDNA NEGROES RESOLUTIONS


Edna, Texas, Oct. 23.-At we'll at
tended meeting here here Saturday
by the colored people these resolu
tons were unanimously adopted:
IN a gerat country like our beloved
state and country, where all the races
nave been permitted to come and live
and become citizens, it sometimes be-
comes necessary for the weaker race
or races to declare itself or them
selves on questions Of vital interest
and importance where the whole citi-
zenship Is vitality interested, this be-
ing done for the purpose Of reaching
an understanding, if possible, with
those who sometimes become agrieved
over some act Of the weak as whole,
when in fact it should be only in part.
'tAnd whereas, 1t appears that when
member Of our race commits a crime
the whole race Is held Responsible for
the act or acts Of one or some others
who may be acting with him, when
reason shows is contrary TO justice;
and
whereas, 1t is known to every RAJ
tioaal creature that all of the race do
not and could not possess the ability
to foretell what creatures in be-
ing or going to do, ard that deeds are
actually committed before It IS known
to any one but the party or parties
committiag the deed; therefore be 1T
resolved. That we. the colored

meeting assembled. do here and now
