stranger passing through the city would not
have known from any outward sign that po-
htcal revolution, affecting the social status or
thousands OF persons IN this country, had been
effected on the previous day. With that wonderful
adaptation OF means to ends that the American
people have acquired BY century's familiarity
with the institutions of republic. this great po-
litical change was accomplished without disturb.
