What reading level is Orations And Addresses volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Higgins appointment, indeed, was a signal illustra tion of the abuse that we would correct. It was the ap pointment of a person publicly and responsibly accused of disreputable political practices, the explanation of which, if there be one, is not known, and an appoint ment made mainly at the request of a senator, a request which is in itself a gross offence, and which experience and reason show to be made presumably for a personal and not for a public purpose, a practice which promotes the... most flagrant corruption. This is the Higgins case, and I know no satisfactory explanation of it. It is the ordinary case under the spoils system, yet it is now made the occasion of especial and continuous remark. If, however, it fairly illustrated the general practice of the administration, it would not be singular. Certainly the severest censors would not assert that the Higgins ap pointment is of a kind unparalleled under other adminis trations; and to allege that it is peculiarly offensive under Democratic ascendency is to concede what is, of course, not intended, that more is to be expected from a Democratic than from a Republican executive.
