North American Review.

America and England, article on, 331-346,

-

- the American people morally superior
to the population of any foreign country,
owing to the more general diffusion of
wealth and education, and to the char-
acter of our social and political institu-
tions, 381, 332-this superiority should
be more distinctly recognized by them-
selves, for upon the moral principles of
the people depends the character of their
politics and political relations, 332, 333

late events have shown the necessity
of raising the standard of morality,-this
insisted upon with reference to the rela-
tions between England and the United
States, 334, 335 reasons for our dis-
trust of England, 335- efforts of sym-
pathizers with Rebellion to augment this
distrust thwarted, but not rendered
wholly nugatory, 336, 337-hostility of
the English press, search for precedents
by both sides, exhibitions of rancor by
distinguished men, -all these illustrate
a spirit dangerous to the highest inter-
ests of the country, 337, 338- Mr. Ad-
ams's statement of British sentiment to-
ward this country, 338, 339-causes of
British hostility, 339, 340 losses in-
flicted by privateers sailing from British
ports, 840, 341-war with England an
unspeakable calamity for both nations,
would make every Englishman a ha-
ter of republican institutions, 342- the
material effect on ourselves of such a
war, 343-other ways of vengeance,
343, 344our true war policy the pol-
icy of peace, 344, 345- we should show
our moral superiority by manifesting
a dignified generosity which avoids
quarrels, 845-it is for us to show that
as no government is more strong than
a democracy, so none is more stable,
346.
