So would be, and so was, Oakum Head. So would be, and so were, Skirmishers. The Uncommercial took the liberty of hinting that he hardly thought it probable that any lady or gentleman in want of a likely young domestic of retiring manners, would be tempted into the engagement of either of the two leading Refractories, on her own presentation of herself as per sample.
Also we have taken to growing indigo, which is a fine commodity for profit. It has been found that the climate on the further side of the Great Salt Lake suits well for raising indigo. UNCOMMERCIAL. I am told that these people now on board are principally from the South of England? MORMON AGENT. And from Wales. That's true. UNCOMMERCIAL. Do you get many Scotch? MORMON AGENT. Not many.
I have never yet ascertained in the course of my uncommercial travels, why a Refractory habit should affect the tonsils and uvula; but, I have always observed that Refractories of both sexes and every grade, between a Ragged School and the Old Bailey, have one voice, in which the tonsils and uvula gain a diseased ascendency. 'Five pound indeed!
That such a principle is antiquated, absurd, and uncommercial; that it is opposed to the whole system of trade as now adopted in this metropolis, has been clearly shown in the preface to these memoirs. But in this instance, in the case of Brown, Jones, and Robinson, the doing so was as impracticable as it would have been foolish, if practicable. Credit and credit only was required.
My doubt is as to whether the structure was intended for the benefit of navigators of the Clyde in shallow canoes! The Dumbuck structure, when occupied, adjoined and commanded a ford across the undeepened Clyde of uncommercial times.
Later in the day, when this self-same boat was filled with a choir who sang glees and catches for a long time, one of the singers, a girl, sang her part mechanically all the while, and wrote a letter in the bottom of the boat while doing so. 'A stranger would be puzzled to guess the right name for these people, Mr. Uncommercial, says the captain. 'Indeed he would.
Literally translated into uncommercial language by that female financier, it meant that Miss Todd, "on notice from Keep & Co." should write her name at the bottom of the transfer blank on the back of the certificate and mail it to them. This done they would buy her another ten shares of stock, using her certificate as additional margin.
Meantime, all faces were turned towards the building, and we men waited with a fixed and stern resolution: for the most part with folded arms. Surely, it was the only public French sight these uncommercial eyes had seen, at which the expectant people did not form en queue.
There was no reason to suppose that any such ounces of tea had ever been in existence, or that the old steward so much as knew what was the matter; he passed HIS life in considering himself periodically defrauded of a birch-broom by the beadle. But it is neither to old Alms-Houses in the country, nor to new Alms-Houses by the railroad, that these present Uncommercial notes relate.
The uncommercial interest, sated at a glance, directed itself upon the striving crowd on either side and behind: wondering whether one might have guessed, from the expression of those faces merely, what kind of sight they were looking at. The differences of expression were not many.
