The economists regarding all unproductive consumption as an evil, as a robbery of the human race never fail to exhort proprietors to moderation, labor, and economy; they preach to them the necessity of making themselves useful, of remunerating production for that which they receive from it; they launch the most terrible curses against luxury and laziness.
As our commerce and navigation are enlarged and extended, our exports of agricultural products and of manufactures will be increased, and in the new markets thus opened they can not fail to command remunerating and profitable prices.

The minister looked amused but did not offer to take it: "That's all right," he said pleasantly, "We don't keep boarders you know. You were welcome to what we could give you." "But, my dear sir, I couldn't think of not remunerating you," declared Laurie. "And I couldn't think of taking it," smiled the minister. "Well, then take it for your poor people," he insisted.
It gave me pleasure to find in it, 'The man that is wanted throughout the West Coast of Africa is not the negro, but the Chinaman; and should he ever turn his steps in its direction he will find an extensive and remunerating field for the exercise of his industry and intelligence. We then turned our attention from the town to the townspeople.
