CAPTAIN WlLLIAllI KIDD.
BY CHARLES BEBE TODD.
Who was Captain Kidd i" The fquestion is
one which". many intelligent readers would ,
find it dilficult to answer. Biographers have
criminately,'returniug to the colonial ports
laden with plunder. So numerous‘ and rs-
paclous did they at length become that the
powerful East India Company' found its
trade seriously crippled by them, and at the
time of which we write—1697—was bring-
ing its powerful influence to bear on the
Lords of Trade and of the Admiralty for
the prompt suppression of the freebooters.
The Admiralty_ could do little, however;
every vessel in the king's navy, down to the
store-ships. was engaged in the contest with
France then raging. At this juncture, two
American gentlemen ‘of standing came 'for-
. ward: with-7a propositio‘n‘to fit out a private
expedition to go in quest of the maranders.
One of these was Captain William Kidd,
shipmaster, the other, Colonel William Liv.
ingston, founder of the Livingston family of
New York.- Of Scotch parentage, though
born in Rotterdam, Colonel William Living-
ston came to New York in 1674 and estab-
lished himself in Albany; He had held many
ofiices under the government. and was a man
of note in the colony. He had been com-
missary for the army employed against the
French in 1688, and was now in London
seeking repaymeut'of moneys advanced for
provisioning d transporting the troops.
Kidd, then a utable m’erchant and ship
owner, had done him a service, and it was in
return for this kindness, no doubt, that
Livingston now furthered his design of
pirate—hunting. The two Americans applied
to the Earle of Bellamout, an Irish peer,who
had just been named by the king. Governor
of New York and New England, for the
express purpose of Suppressing piracy. The
earl communicated the project to the king.

ant, because about that time n‘c’wsbad reach-

Kidd was not slow in making known the
conditions under which he-would engage in

the subject of a grave inquiry of the British
House of Commons with the object of as-
persiug the fair fame of several lords of
high‘degree. and of royalty itself. Kidd has.
been a fruitful theme in literature; the'
story-tellers, from Poe and Irving to the
ballad-mongers,lhave been busy with him
ever since he swung in chains at Execution
Dock, and quite a modest world of fiction
has gathered about his name. He has be-
come a part of the legendary loreof four
colonies; the ballads he inspired are still
crooned in fishermen’s cottages; Sound
skippers still see his low, black, rakish craft

ditions between the Earl of Bellamout, act-
ing for his colleagues, and Livingston and
Kidd, " parties of the second part,” were as
follows. The earl agreed to procure a good
and sufficient ship to the liking of Captain
Kidd.» He also agreed to pay four-fifthisflpuur
service." Kidd,however, could not be given
'one of the king’s ships at that time, because,
as we have seen, they were all in use.
lieu of this, five of the highest lords of the

calm—the Lord Chancellor,Lord Bellamont,
the Duke of Shrewsbury, the Earl of Rom-
ney, and Lord Orford—‘entered into an
agreement with Livingston and Kidd to fur-
nish the desired ship, crew and outfit for a
certain share in the prizes that Kidd should
take from the pirates. The king was also a
ilent partner in this curious enterprise, and

formed to raise his vessel, the “Adventure
Galley,” reported to have been sunk in a
cove of the Hudson, but in reality burned
amid the coral reefs of Madagascar. There
is little in this mass of legendary lore Worth
treasuring, The sober history of 'Kidd’s
career, however, opens up several obscure
phases of colonial manners and morals, be-
sides touching on questions of historical im-
portance, and is in this respect worthy the
attention of the student of facts.
Kidd was a Scotchman by birth,havingheeu
born in the old town of Greenock, about the
year 1660. His career may be used to
strengthen the popular fallacy that clergy.
men’s sous turn out badly, it being pretty
well established that his father was the Rev.
John Kidd, a non-conforming minister at
Greenock. Like most enterprising lads in
that seaport town, he chose a sailor’s life,a_nd
as earlyas 1690, by force of merit, added to
the interest his father was able to exert,.had
risen to the position of master of a merchant-
man plying between New York and Boston.
His status at that time is pretty accurately
defined by his marriage certificate,dated May
16,1691, and still preserved in the surrogate’s
office in the city of New York, in which he
is spoken of as “ Captain William Kidd,
Gentleman.“
After. his marriage, Kidd followed his vo-
cation of ship-master for several years, mak-
ing many voyages and earning the reputation
of a bold and skilful mariner. -> In 1695,
Governor Dougan, of Massachusetts offered
him the command of a war vessel which he
was fitting out 'to go in search of several
French privateers then reported on the coast.
- A correspondence ensued between the two
worthies. part of which is still preserved;
but I nowhere find any record of his accept-
ance of the commission, though two years
later his patron, Colonel Livingston, spoke of
him as having “inflicted great losses on the
French”, If he entered the king's service,
however, he did not long remaimiu it, for in
1697 we find him in England, with Colonel
Livingston. intently pressing on the British
ministry an undertaking of an entirely dif-
ferent character.
The maritime colonies of America were
then deeply engaged in two pernicious prac-
deem—piracy and smuggling. ' In those
whose commerce was'most' flourishing the
evil had, of course, - taken deepest root.
Massachusetts and Connecticut seem not to
have been scriously'tain'ted; but in New
York, Rhode Island, and North Carolina the
evil had assumed alarming proportions. In
New York city especially. under the rule of
corrupt Governor Fletcher, piracy had 'be-
come one of the most flourishing of maritime
enterprises, In almost the first letter of
Lord Bensmont, Fletcher’s. successor, to the
Lords of Trade, he describes the city asbeing
the haunt of pirates, and asserts that vessels
were openly fitted out at its wharves for pi—
ratical expeditions to the Red Sea and the
Indian coast, that the streets were regularly
“ best up ” for recruits to engage in them,
under the eye of the governor,and'that when
these ships returned with their booty they
found a ready sale for it- among the mer-,
chants of the city. Many others did a lucra-
tive business by acting as agents or brokers
for the freebooters, and Governor Fletcher
had even- invited Captain Tew, one of_.the
most notorious of these pirates, to his table.

The sculpture, J. S. Hartley, gave a pri-
vate view yesterday, which will be repeated
to-day. at his studio, of the plaster model of
his recently completed statue of Miles Mor-
gan, one of the early settlers of Springfield,
Mass. This work, of which we have spoken
of several times while iu,.progress. is to be
cast in bronze. It is an order from Mr. H.
T. Morgan, of this city, one of the subject’s
descendants. He will present it and its
pedestal to Springfield, where it will be
erected in the Court House square. - The
Sculpture began work on the actual statue in
October last, and the bronze will be finished
by next September. The statue is or heroic
size—eight feet. The simple,tasteful pedes-
tal of Quincy granite will be seven fcctsix
inches high, three and a half feet square at
the top and six feet six inches square a tthc

simply, and broadly handled work, strongin

way to the fields in- the morning. He is
armed with a gun and holds a hoe, and has
paused for a moment, in the swing of his
sturdy, upright walk, to cast a glance around
for possible Indians. He is a broad-should-
ered, strong limbed, hearty, earnest man—a
man of action, prompt and determined. His
heavy, bell-mouthed wheellock gun rests on
his left shoulder and his right hand grasps
firmly the wooden handle of the hoe, whose
shank rests on the ground with the spade.
shaped blade turned up. It is being used
partly as a walking stick, and is' loosely drag-
ged on the return stroke. "
The right leg is advancad, and the weight
of the body rests on the left 'one. The last
fact is admirably felt through the" heavy
clothing, and equally admirable is the im-
pression in just arrested motion of the lift
and swing of the body. The face is raised
and turned 'very slightly to the fight, and the
intent expression of the eyes, with forehead
knitted and brows raised, is excellent. . The
hair, which might have been treated with
more freedom and boldness of effect, is worn
long, the mustache is clipped at the mouth
according to the custom and the board is
roundly pointed. On the head is a huge
crowned, conical,- broad brimmed felt hit,
more heavy than picturesque and tipped from
right to left. The rest of the costume con-
sists of a broad linen collar and cuffs the

somewhat rumpled and loosely tied with a
cord; jerkin of heavy, stifl. woollen, home-
'made cloth. buttoned to and bound rather
tightly‘at the waist by a broad leather belt,
with an iron buckle; baggy breeches to the -
knees, of the same material as the upper gar-
ment and tied by ribbons; thick ribbed, '
homespun stockings, and low quartered,
long tongued, heavy, square teed shoes. On
the right side hangs in frontpof the arm a
powder horn. There are euthorities more or
less reliable for thislposition, but the prcper
place for thehorn is on the hip behind the
arm. It is useful in the general efliect where
it is, but hanging as it does by a leather band
the swing of the walk would throw it in an
annoying manner against the arm.
The pose is admirably chosen, and the;
action, as has already been said, is excellent.

Another instance is entitled “A Novel
Dish at a Dinner.” George W. Browne had
been overtaken by financial disaster‘but was
released by his creditors in view of Main-
tegrity and business capacity. After many
years had elapsed his creditors received
handsomely printed invitations to attend a
banquet to .be given at his place. The re-
cipients unwilling to decline an invitation to
a good dinner, or impelled by curiosity to
know- the purport of the invitations, were
present at the appointed time. Outside
guests wcae excluded from the dining-room.
The tables were elegantly adorned, flowers
were in profusion; each guest’s name and
place was indicated, the arrangements were
complete. Still filled with curiosity' the
large company of creditors sank into their
respective places and awaited developments.
Napkins were unfolded, wine glasses adjust-
ed and preparations made for an‘attack all
along the line. As each man turned his plate
over he espied upon'thc cloth a slip of gray
paper. ‘ It was a check drawn to the bearer
in full for the balance unpaid with the inter-
est compounded. . .
It is stated that the effect was electrical.
The Tribune adds, “ It may safely be said
there is no reminiscence more pleasant than-
that which connects the name of George W.
Browne with so signal an instance of business
honesty. _ -
Not'less noted and praiseworthy was a dry
goods merchant's course who requests his
name be withheld. Apprenticed to a house
in Boston in 1831, he was admitted to part-
nership five years later,and in 1847 the house
suspended and its affairs legally wound up.
The gentleman referred to was at once. ad-
mitted to a more successful pjrtnership and
prospered. But it Weighed upon the mind of
the ex—partuer of the broken firm with which
he had first been-.connected, that it was a
point of honor to clear his own skirts of his
share of.the responsibility for the debts of
that concern, and to the accomplishment of
this purpose be bent all his energies..In 1855,
after- the lapse of eight years, he was able to
do what he set, out for. He paid One hundred
and twenty-six creditors of the old firm, or
their representatives, his proportion of the
indebtediiess with the interest. 2
The act was done .without ostentation, but
it became known and the city papers of the
period commented upon it in glowing terms,
and it is added that this honest merchant has
recently retired from business and is passing
a quiet old age in the posSesion of an ample
and well-earned fortune.

homers attended to day or night. Residence
_ Main Street, 3 doors from Union Avenue,
completion of its first year, and pronounced
the following benediction: ~
In putting out this final number of the
News we desire to express our warm thanks
to ,the democratic party in this part of the
county for their uniform and staunch sup-
port. It was to the representations, by
sundry leaders, of the crying necessity for
a democratic‘ mouthpiece in this county, far
more than our own convictions of- any need
that the N we was indebted for its inception.
We erected this mouthpiece, at considerable
trouble and expense, before the walls of the
republican Jericho, and invited the demo. V'
cratic brethren to blow. The official response
was slow, but it came finally. It came in the
shapevof three sq. 1 or 2t advertisement (cost
$2.75) in the generous heat of the campaign
last fall, for these, however, we have not yet
received any pay. We have fond li0pe,
though, that in the lapse of the next century,»
our political» debtors, by the prac.ice of rigid -
economy and by curtailing their weekly
stipends of plug tobacco and grog, will be
enabled to liquidate. ' . ’ .
There are several democratic supporters
about town from whom we part in a tremor
of sadness and regret. We have never
known them to refuse an ofiiciai or business _
puff. And they have never failedtoclimb
twenty-eight republican stairs to insert their
favors in a republican newspaper. Still they _
are very pleasant, smiling gentlemen, and we
shall miss them. We trust that the republi-
can leaders will, some say or other take these
sensitive gentlemen,who are chronicall athirst
for political pap. into the free lunch room of
their wn political Valhalla, and give them
one square meal. And be sure that it won't
cost thEm a cent.
We might have continued the publication
of the News for anober year without pecun-
iary loss; but the outlook for a democratic
paper in this :county, .it seems. to us,t_ was__
graphically described its the words Of a. per-
ipatotic clergyman, who, after a three hours’
discourse and labored solicitation “thanked.
God he had got his hatback from thecon-
gregation.” , . _ . . .
. How vastis eternity, its smoothl‘aud shin-~
ing horizon forever melting at: each advance
into thepurple beyond! Yetwe feel tolera-
bly confident that one,and perhaps two etern-
ities might be frittered away in a democratic
revival in eastern Connecticut.
Yes, life is too short l .-
