"The night," she panted--"the night you bore him--in your arms--" Then did the other woman give a shuddering start and lift her head, staring with a frozen face. "What! what!" she cried. "Down the dark stairway," the panting voice went on, "to the far cellar--I kept watch again." "You kept watch--you?" the duchess gasped. "Upon the stair which led to the servants' place--th...
Transactions of the Colony, from the Beginning of the Year 1790 until the End of May following.
Our impatience of news from Europe strongly marked the commencement of the year. We had now been two years in the country, and thirty-two months from England, in which long period no supplies, except what had been procured at the Cape of Good Hope by the 'Sirius', had reached us. From intelligence of our friends and connections we had been entirely cut off, no communication whatever having passed with our native country since the 13th of May 1787, the day of our departure from Ports...

Until recently, there has been little that’s passive about cryptocurrency. From the get-go, buying bitcoin or alternative coins (altcoins) requires research – at least enough to open a digital wallet or app that lets your clients buy cryptocurrency, such as Robinhood, CashApp or Venmo.
Then there’s the market news, which changes every day. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has made significant strides in the conversation about regulating the $2 trillion asset class – including approving a bitcoin futures exchange-traded fund (ETF) to begin trading this week.
