But the people generally see but one side of the question ; they believe what their partisan editors tell them. They learn that this man is a genuine re- publican, but his opponent is a tory in disguise ; that this set of principles is entirely in accordance with our democratic in- stitutions, but the opposite will subvert our liberties and lead to monarchy or despotism* One man learns that the party to which he is opposed, is made up of infidels, agrarians and vag- abonds ; while his neighbor ...of the other side is taught that his opponents are proud, haughty aristocrats. Is it surprising that the people should be so deeply interest, ed, and should manifest so much warmth and zeal in main- 16 taining the principles of their respective parties, when they are made to believe, that the preservation of their liberties depends upon their fidelity to party interests ? What must be the opinion of foreigners respecting our statesmen, if they should believe all the calumnious reports that are published ?
