From the year 1858 to that of 1887
them iveru no lest tbuu seven British,
French, German aud American cruisers
constantly cruising in the waters of the
China aud Java seas after pirates. Dur
ing this time over 100 piratical eraft
were captured, a dozen or 16 strong
holds broken up and at least 2,000
"block flags" were killed offhand nr
sent ashore to be bung. The cruisers
thought they bod fluished tlieir work,
but iu 1800 several traders which bud
been fitted out at Bantam, Batavia aud
Siugnpore were overhauled by pirates
and their crews butchered. When we
arrived ut Singapore in 1870 in the
British gun brig Vixen, a nest of pi
rates bad been located on one of the is
lands oil the west coast of Java, und we
bad orders to proceed to the spot and
cleau them out. We overhauled our
armaintut, took in a lot of ammunition
aud strengthened our crew by 14 men
before sailing These men were drafted
out of a crew belonging to a man-of-
war which bad been wrecked on the
Malay ccast, und all wero old hands
The captain got his bearings front somo
source unknown to us, aud when we
left ¡¿iugupjre the brig was headed to
tnu east. We jogged along down Ibe
coast of Sumatra for u week without
any unusual incident, and though we
spoke a score of craft nunc of them had
uuy information about the pirate. The
crew had begun to ridicule the idea
wheu somuthiug oooorrt d to open our
oyes very wide.
(Jno morning, nbont an hour after
daylight, we came up with a Dutch
trader, which was taking care of her
self. All her sails had been cut away,
ropes wero Hying iu every direction,
aud she was so low in the water that
wo wondered why she didn’t go down.
When a boat pulled off to her. it was to
find the captain mortally wounded und
his wife aud two sailors, stiff und dead
aud horribly mutilated, on the deck be
side him. Wc got him off, but had no
time to givo the bodies burial before
tiie little craft went down. The captain
was u man about 4U years of age, and,
though hardly alive when we found
him, he rallied enough to tell bis story.
The trader bad beeu trafficking ulong
the Java coast aud had finully completed
bia cargo and beaded for Singapore.
Just at sunset on the previous evening
he hud been overhauled by a native
craft, carrying about 40 men. He was
then about ten miles off tho coast aud
abont five miles south of an island
known aa Queen's Bower. He had no
suspicion whatevor of the natives, aud
the first tiling bo knew they hoarded his
crate and begun to cat and slash. When
they had finished the crew, they began
to plunder und strip tho vessel und wero
w i t h her nntil iniduighL Before leaving
they bored her full of boles, and we bad
reached her jnst in time to rescue the
captain. The first craft was joined by
two others later on, and the three car
ried nt least 100 desperate fellows. Tbo
captain heard and understood enough to
satisfy him that they were an organized
gang of pirates aud that they were ulso
well equipped for their bloody business.
1 ite isluud mentioned was uot over
SO miles away, and as the Java sea was
aud is a great highway it did uot stem
possible that men would take such a
risk us those pirates had. The trader
said that no less than three friendly
sails were in sight w hen be was at
tacked, but all too far away to signal,
even if be bad been warued in time to
do something. Owing to tbe sboais sur
rounding I be island our cruft could uot
approach uear enough to use her gnus
and shell the fellows out, aud we were
not strong enough to laud flout our
bents aud deal with thttu. Tbe sight of
an armed vessel uoaing around would
pat tbe pirates on their guard, and so
it was resolved to play rheni u Yankee
trick. We ran into u bay cl> tbe coast
and set to work.
Yon are probably aware of tbe fact
that an English man-of-war, no mutter
how largo or how small, is a pattern of
neatness and regulation, and tbe ent of
her sails w ill alone establish her identi

overhaul a great deal. We pnt every
