215 One distinction of Mr. Leggett s mind was, as we have remarked, its American character. That there breathes in the institutions of this country a peculiar spirit, a spirit no where else to be found, no one can gainsay. A great funda mental principle lies underneath our civil polity. To conform to this principle, if not to illustrate and develop it, is to an American political writer an essential condition of success. Leggett fulfilled the condition. He not only felt as an Amer ican, which i...ndeed most Americans do, for there is a profound nationality at the heart of the American people, but he thought and wrote as an American. In this respect, he was unlike most of the writers of his country. Americans continue even now to write and think too much like Englishmen in a new hemisphere. It was not thus with Leggett. It was his dis tinction, not above all others certainly, but above most of our educated men, to have reasoned from the facts before his eyes, from the character of the people among whom he lived, and from the institutions under which he was born.
