M:;ny votes are controlled in great part by patronage and money, directly or indirectly used. Where parties are nicely balanced, that will be successful which commands the largest influences of this corrupting kind. Hence party contests are chiefly for the spoils ; and there is a constant tendency'to increase the number of offices, the amount of expenditures, and contracts, and jobs — in one word, to swell the 8 spoils. In this state of things, when a party appears like the original anti-sla- v...ery party, animated by fanatical zeal for a single idea, each of the great di- visions of the spoils parties of necessity begins to bid for its vote, and, instead of resisting, to yield to its errors. Thus its principles are gradually diffused through the masses, until at last, adopted openly by one of the regular parties, they conduct it to victory, and gain for it the coveted spoils. Mean- time, the educated and conservative classes, with a few honorable exceptions, give way to an unfortunate but natural disgus't for political contests conducted by such low arts, and determined by such unworthy means.
