To this * Burke's Speech on Conciliation with America. 17 training, and their long, practical acquaintance with the spirit and use of liberty, that we are to ascribe the peculiar character and consequences of the American Revolution. In which two things are specially noteworthy. First, the ab- sence of those destructive outbursts of popular violence by which revolutions are usually char- acterized. Not liberty but bondage is the parent of excess. The most convulsive movements of that exciting p...eriod developed no tendencies to anarchy or outrage. There was nothing mon- strous or inhuman, no culbute generale, no break- ing forth of the devil in man, to triumph over law and love. No " insurrection against God," no invasion of ancient sanctities, no uprooting of cherished faiths. The very mobs of the Revolu- tion had in them a spirit of justice, and leave the historian little to regret. When the province of Massachusetts occupied the novel position of a civilized and populous community without mag- istrate or ruler or any acknowledged authority, the old government having been abrogated by the arbitrary policy of England, it was hoped that the prospect of anarchy would instantly enforce complete submission.
