From this time until 1832, there bad b*en
a “piping time ot peace.” In the arts and
the sciences, in the philosophy of the age and
the material progree* of the period, the then
young nation of .States was up to the times.
Our flag was every where respected, every
where honored. The American experiment
of a Constitutional Republican Government
was the theme for the eulogistic essayist in
England, as it had been the theme tor the
captions critic. Foets sang of it: philoso
phers speculated in it; the people at home in
their heart of hearts loved it.
The evil genius, the demon, introduced
through the port of Charleston, South Caroli

The issue was soon made, but the Senate,
under the control of the wise and the great
Webster, with the conservatism of more than
a half century yet remaining with it, rejected
the temptation and refused to ratify the treaty.
The aggitation of this question had fairly
begun, however, and the spirits of discord
rejoiced in contemplation of the results. The
next Presidential election was to test the
strength of the temptation. Mr. Polk, of
Tennessee, was elected, and our demon re
joiced. Texas was annexed to the Union of
States in 1845, and in 1846 war was declared
with Mexico. The long peace of thirty-one
years is disturbed, and war begins under the
dictation of the god of war, the evil genius
