Jonas put his hand upon his head, and patted it gently as he drove away; and, when he found that Franco was really going with him, he turned his head back, and said, with a look of great satisfaction, "Good-by, sir. I'm very much obliged to you." "Good-by, Jonas. Take good care of Ney." "Yes, sir," said he, "I certainly will."
It is, however, well to bear in mind that the inclusion of Trieste in Italy's tariff system would mean the speedy economic ruin of a great and flourishing commercial centre. Commercially, then, Trieste is unthinkable save either as the port of Austria or as a porto franco under Italian suzerainty.
'Pardon, a thousand times, my worthy couple, cried the sonorous Mr. Raikes. 'What we have seen we swear not to divulge. Franco and Fred your pledge! 'We swear! exclaimed this couple. But suddenly the cheeks of Mr. John Raikes flushed. He alighted from the box, and rushing up to Old Tom, was shouting, 'My bene 'Do you want my toe on your plate? Old Tom stopped him with.
"You're a good dog, Franco," he continued, patting his head, "to come with me, very good dog, Franco, to choose the coarse hay for a bed under the old General's crib, rather than that good warm carpet, for the sake of coming with me.

He came to the side of it, and looked up, with every appearance of exultation and joy. "Why, Franco," said Jonas, "how came you here?"
"What's that?" said Oliver, who was behind him. "It is Franco," said he. "Where is he going?" Franco ran off to the shed where Jonas had harnesses his horses, and began smelling around upon the ground.
The mysterious words completely changed the aspect of Mr. John Raikes. He bowed obsequiously and made his friend Franco step down and assist in the task of reestablishing the donkey, who fortunately had received no damage. We left Rose and Evan on their way to Lady Jocelyn.
I was in despair when I found your eloquence imputed to another name; but I heard the error was so generally corrected that you may count on your fame descending unchallenged to posterity. I should agree with you that Franco was to be despaired of, if France were to be considered as subject to ordinary rules.
A strong gust carried it clear from her head, and blew it away over Franco, upon the snow by the side of the road beyond. Franco, who was all ready for a spring, bounded after it, and pursued it at full speed.
Of the four artist-figures who in the tradition of Tintoret's picture support this "Golden Calf" of Venice, Tintoret himself is the one specially Venetian. Giorgione was of Castel Franco; Titian came from the mountains of Cadore; Paolo from Verona. But Jacopo Robusti, the "little dyer," the Tintoretto, was born, lived, and died in Venice.
