Yet Mr.Greeley concludes the whole thing to have been a bad job for us, and harps upon another over-importation of $1,000,000.
U, is a gallant Yankee sea-captain, who picks up an abandoned vessel at sea laden with a valuable cargo of teas, and bravely tows her into port, receiving $200,000 of the proceeds of the sale of her cargo as salvage for his skill and intrepidity.

From Mr.Greeley's point of view U is a traitor to his country, and suffering a merited poverty for over-importing.

But U drives his carriage about town, and has his own opinion of Mr.Greeley's views.
V, having a debt of $300,000 due to him by a merchant in Alexandria, requests him to invest the same in Arabian horses, as fancy stock to improve American breeds.

The horses arrive in good order, and on being sold, yield V a net profit of $30,000, besides enriching our native breeds of these useful animals.

Mr.Greeley still holds out, and jots the whole transaction down as an additional evidence of national decadence.
