The heaven-born mission of journalism is to disseminate truth; to eradicate error; to educate, refine, and elevate the tone of public morals and manners, and make all men more gentle, more virtuous, more charitable, and in all ways better, and holier, and happier; and yet this blackhearted scoundrel degrades his great office persistently to the dissemination of falsehood, calumny, vituperation, and vulgarity.
The coincidence seemed complete enough, in all truth; yet it was incredible that Reuben's cousin could be so blackhearted a villain or could have any motive for these dastardly crimes. Suddenly a new idea struck me. Mrs Hornby had obtained access to this typewriting machine; and if Mrs. Hornby could do so, why not John Hornby?

Retracing their steps they had to proceed more cautiously, but they soon caught sight of the figure ahead, now lost, now reappearing. "It is that blackhearted villain, who has hounded us!" cried Eldon. "On! on!" But the guide, true to his calling, shouted: "Surrender, or you are a dead man! The Bottomless Pit is right ahead of you."
Oh, but she 's blackhearted to give me the lie about it, and say those poor things was all up, and she 'd thrown lime on 'em to keep away their inemies when she first see me come out betune me cabbage rows. How well she knew what I might be doing!
For mysel', I canna say I ever likit him o'er weel; and since puir Maggie gaed awa', I hae ta'en little pleasure in the honor he has done oor village." "Maggie gone away! Where to?" "Nane can tell. She had a sair trial wi' yonder auld harridan her brother brought to bide wi' her." "I did not like the woman, Willie." "Like her? Wha wad like her but the blackhearted and the black-tongued?
John took the hint. He 'kept a still tongue' and turned back from the garden into the house. Bainton chuckled softly. "Passon can't lie!" he said to himself "He couldn't do it to save his life! That's just the best of 'im! Now if he'd begun tellin' me that he was sure that blackhearted rascal 'ad gone to keep company with the angels I'd a nigh despised im! I would reely now!"

"My object was to disclose the truth," she cried, vehemently, "to denounce you as a blackhearted villain, and to save an unsuspecting youth from becoming the victim of your deep-laid schemes." D'Alton bit his lip with passion, but restrained himself. "And you do all this solely from conscientious motives," he said with a sneer. "My conscience, like your own, Mr. D'Alton, is pretty well hardened.
I've always give you a square deal, and I thought you was a man. I've heard some queer stories about you shootin' one or two men in a peculiar way, but I never believed 'em. Now if you're just havin' a little fun with me, Shark, put your gun up, and we'll get on Bolivar and vamose. If you mean to shoot shoot, you blackhearted son of a tarantula!" Shark Dodson's face bore a deeply sorrowful look.
