Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The History of the United States, From Their Colonization to the End of the Twenty-Sixth Congress, in 1841, Vol. 3: In Four Volumes The Government of the United States was now subjected to a new and a severer test. It was to be seen how it would sustain itself in a war with a powerful enemy, when its only regular force consisted of raw levies, slowly raised, and at great cost; with a revenue hitherto dependent on commerce, and now cut off from that source of supply; a Chief Magistrate whose habits, character, and tastes were conciliatory; and a Legislature controlled by public sentiment, which if, on the one hand, it supported the war from a lively sense of national wrong, keenly felt, on the other, the natural impatience of taxes. It was, therefore, an interesting spectacle to see how these difficulties, which had pressed so heavily in one campaign, were to be encountered in another, and whether the valor and skill which had been so conspicuously exhibited at sea would not be gradually developed on land.
