The cable rattled through the hawse-hole, the anchor went to the bottom,
the Young America swung round, and her voyage across the ocean was
happily terminated. Three rousing cheers were given in honor of the
auspicious event, and when the sails had been furled, the crew were
piped to dinner.

And here, at the close of the voyage, we leave the Young America, with
her officers and crew wiser and better, we trust, than when they sailed
from the shores of their native country. They were now to enter upon a
new life in foreign lands; and what they saw and what they did, on sea
and shore, during the following weeks, will be related in "SHAMROCK AND
THISTLE, or _Young America in Ireland and Scotland_!"
