I have no ambition to be an actress. This effort was forced upon me. How was I to disgust him, sir?"，"Is Maurice asleep?" whispered the woman.，"Then I'm proud and 'appy to have been the instrument of a-bringing her to you. I'm a father myself and can understand your feelings, sir," said the captain of the brig.，"Six hundred tons out and six hundred home. That is twelve hundred. I don't know what freights are, but they must rule high, and, kindly creature as he is, Acton is the man to know to what market to drive his pigs. I think you have done very well; besides obtaining occupation which may conduct you to something higher or at least better, you stand to clear about a hundred pounds by this voyage——"Silence fell upon the family after the first gasp of surprise at sight of the gold piece.
