GOOD GRAMMAR.
We advise every little grammarian just
entering on the study, to commit to mem
ory the following lines, and then they
never need make errors in speech. The
author, whoever he is, deserves much
credit:
1. Three Utile words you often sec,
Are articles, a, an and the.
2. A noun’s the name of anything,
As school or garden, hoop or toting.
.2. Adjectives tell that kind of noun.
As great, email, pretty, white or brown.
i. Instead of nouns the pronouns stand—
Her head, his face, your arm, my hand.
5. Verbs tell of something to b done—
To read, count, ting, laugh, jump, run.
0. flow things are done the adverbs tell,
As sloidg,lquiekly, ill or welt.
7. Conjunctions join the words together,
A* men and women, wind or weather.
8. The prepositions stand before
A. noun, as of or through a door.
9 The interjections show surprise,
As, ah! how pretty— oh! how wise.
The whole are called nine parts of speech,
Which reading, writing, spelling teach.
Blackbeard’s Treasures.
A CLUE TO THEIR I’I.ACE OF CONCEAL
MENT PROBABLY DISCOVEEI).
A PAJtTY IN SEARCH FOR THEM.
Several weeks ago four persons, two of
them well known in this vicinity, are said
to have left Savannah to prospect for tlie
countless buried treasure of Blackbeard,
the pirate. These gentlemen were provid
ed with blankets, provisions, a tent, and
abundance of ammunition, a number of
magnets, a couple of sounding lods, also
picks, shovels, axes and hatchets. They
also took with them a time-bedusted docu
ment, found, it is said, near an old house
near Ocracock Inlet, N. C., during the
late war, and which purported to be a
handwriting of Blackbeard, giving nearly
the exact location on the Georgia coast of
an immeuse amount of buried coins. The
party who first found the document is said
to have been a private in the Union army,
and that in searching for rebel spoons,
perhaps, he came across this pnper of
Blackbeard's in a small box, stowed away
in a tali and hollow stump near the above
mentioned old house, ou the Portsmouth
side of the inlet above named. The box
had not been in the tree long, that was
evident, as he thought, for it did not
appear much weather-beaten. But the
soldier as soon as he got possession of the
document procured two pieces ot leather
about the size of his hand and folding the
parchment document between them, sewed
the edges tightly together on all sides,
replaced the document in the box and
buried it about half a mile from the origi
nal hiding place.
The war brought many changes to the
soldier, who was several times wounded
and finally died in a hospital near Balti
.more, leaving a sealed letter addressed to
a young lady of Virginia, with directions
that when the war should be over she
should be found and the note delivered to
her.
It is unnecessary to give the soldier's
motive for addressing the young lady re
ferred to, but, suffice it to say, when it was
read it gave the place of concealment of
the piece of parchment.
Such is the story so far as it goes, and
the persons interested in ascertaining the
precise locality of the pirate’s gold and sil
ver, after giving yts the above narrative,
promised to keep us posted relative to the
developments. It is said that their craft
came within a few miles of the city the
other day in charge of a couple of colored
men, who were sent for either ammunition
or provisions, or both. The colored men,
it seems, have never left the sloop down
the coast except to go but a few rods from
the water though the white men are gone
two or three days at a time, and appear to
be in good health and humor. It is in
ferred that as no message was sent to the
city that the party have reason to keep
their own councel.
That Blackbeard must havo come in
possession of many valuables is probable.
Ilis vessels scoured thu whole Atlantic
toast, and carried terror into tbe West In
dies, even to San Domingo, often attack
ing large merchant-men bound from that
island and Jamaica to Europe. At one
time he had as many as fifteen hundred
men saiiing under his black flag, and
friends even in the private office of the
provincial Governor of North Carolina.
Biackbeard's true name was Edward
Teach, and be was born in Bristol, Eng
land, and for a considerable time before he
became a pirate wasengßged in privateer
ing from the Island of Jamaica. He was
a private sailor until 1716, when a Cap
tain Ilornigold, a notorious pirate, gave
him the command of a sloop which he
had made a prize of. In 1717, amoug
other of Blackboard’s opera’ions, was the
capture of a vessel from Havana and a
sloop from Bermuda. His principal feat
. of that year was the plundering of a ship
bound from Madeira to Soutli Caroliua. —
Thence lie tiovered off the coast of Vir
ginia, and returned subsequently to tbe
Gulf, making a prize of a very large
French Guiueaman on the way. In June,
1718, be robbed several English vessels
in the Bermudas, and later a couple of
French vessels laden, with sugar and
coccus. The prizes were taken into North
Carolina, where Governor Eden and tbe
pirates divided the booty. The Govern
or received sixty hogsheads of sugar, his
secretary, T. Knight, one, and the collec
tor of the province twenty.
It was here that the pirate married for
the fourteenth time. His bride was a beau-
tiful girl of sixteen, aud the Governor per
formed the ceremony.
Teach derived the name of Blackboard
from the extraordinary quantity of hair
with which his head and face were cov
ered. He was tall, erect aud well-propor
tioned ; his beard was of a jet black, aud
grew entirely up to bis eyes, and at times
he was in the habit of twisting it with rib
bons into small tails and turning them
about his ears. In time of action he wore
a sling over his shoulders, with three hiace
of pistols hanging in holsters. Ilis dispo
sition corresponded to his appearance—a
more daring, insinuating and reckless
wretch having rarely graced the annals of
piracy. He appeared desirous to impress
his followers with the belief that he was a
devil incarnate, and many stories are hand
ed down to us of his tricks, some of them
exceeding humorous as well as hateful, to
further the impression. The inlet he se
lected as an anchorage for his vessel, when
011 the Georgia coast, was exceedingly
well adapted to his purpose, either for of
fensive or defensive operations, and is a
place of interest to the traveler, not only
from its history, but on account of the
beauty of the lauding on the island which
bears his name.
It is probable that the party engaged in
seeking the buried treasures is operating
in that neighborhood. The initial letters
of two of the persons are J. B , and M. 1”).
respectively.— San. Adt.
THE CHECKO.
AN ADVENTURE IN THE HARBOR OF
BOMBAY— TIIE MOST VENOMOUS REP
TILE KNOWN.
W’e had now been three days in the har
bor of Bombay, and in that time had made
several excursions to points of interest in
the vicinity. Among these we paid a visit
to a small island about six' miles from the
Mahratta shore, on which there stood the
huge figure of an elephant cut out of a
black rock. The figure, when we saw it,
was much decayed, and, I have since
learned, has fallen—the island thus losing
one of its chief monuments. It was from
this image that the island received its
name— Elephant—from the Portuguese,
who, when landing in the days of Albu
qurque, were astonished at this great im
age, the product of Hindoo skill and fanat
icism. It happened while we were prowling
around the image that the boatswain bade
us listen, and laid his hand on the lock of
his musket. We listened and imitated his
movement.
After a lapse of a minute we heard a shrill
whistle, and, looting whence it came,
we saw a large green lizard basking
on a rock within a few feet of the image.
The boatswain saw it first, and raised ids
musket; but before lie fired a Tonka man,
who was with us, tried to frighten the ani
mal by striking it with a switch he carried.
It was a sorry blow for him. The crea
ture turned, and running over his feet,
which were bare, bit him in the calf of
his right leg. at the same instant the boat
swain’s piece was discharged, the ball
striking the spot lately occupied by the
animal, which escaped into the jungle.—
The poor man who was bitten no sooner
felt tbe fangs of the creature pierce his
flesh, than he uttered a cry of anguUh and
immediately fell to the ground in convul
sions. We at once hurried to his aid end
did all we could to allay his suffering, but
the poison bad entered bis blood, and lie
died in less than twenty-five minutes after
he had been bitten.
We were astonished at the extraordi
nary virulence of the poison, which even
exceeded the most venomous serpents ; but
our surprise ended when we learned that
the creature whence it proceeded was the
Gecko, so well known in Egypt as a
deadily reptile. We were conversing
about it over the corpse of the Tonka
man, when again an oiqinous cry warned
us of its presence. We started, seized our
firelocks, and looked about for the enemy.
Presently it was seen issuing from the
jungle and looking upon us with eyes of
fearful malevolence. We Bhuddered, for
the remembrance of its fatal nature wag
fresh in our minds ; hut the boatswain
called for a rally. We gave it with a will.
Eighteen muskets qpened on the reptile
which rolled over oh its side, riddled witli
a shower of bullets. Its struggle* were
short; after a few gasps it lay stark dead.
We then went up and took a look at the
creature. It was about thirteen inches in
length, shaped like a salamander; its
skin of a scagreen color, dotted with spots
of deep crimson. Its head was like that
of a tortoise; the mouth straight; the
eyes large, and even in death strangely
brilliant, whence I believe that it pos
sesses power of charming not only ani
mals, but man himself. Its teeth are very
sharp, and so hard that they might almost
make an impression ou steel.
One of our men did indeed show certain
marks on die point of his cutlass, which
the reptile had seized in his death-throes,
the mnn closing to stab it after the fusilade.
Its legs were armed with claws, said to be
poisonous ; iu fact, the whole system of this
hideous reptile is rife with venom, and the
Indians told us that wliereuF* it passed it
left a track of death. It haunts ruins and
the stems of old trees ; lives chiefly on
ants, and is most active after rain. It then
utters a cry like gecko, from whichrit lias
derived its name. Its bite is fatal, unless
the wound be burnt with a red hot iron or
cut out, a proceeding which we neglected
in tbe case of the Tonka man, if indeed it
would have done him any good.
The reptile is very fond of salt, and our
boatswain told us in Grand Cairo, where
the creature is common, lie knew of a
whole household being killed from eating
a few grains of salt on which the gecko
had shed its venom. Even its blood is
poisonous ; the Javenese using it to tinct
ure their arrow heads, the mere touch of
which produces a wound •which, if un
esuterized, results in death. Such is a
brief dlscription of this terrible reptile,
whose venomous attributes have no eqjral
