SONG Of the Candidate

Song Of the Candidate
My voice IL as hoarse as foghorn: my
hand has been squeezed to a pulp;
rye forced down 30 many Scotch high
balls that I am too crowded to gulp
My eyes In their sockets are burning;
my hair needs comb and a brush
My feet are as wet as dishrag from
tramping around in the slush.
But still am warbling my matin-it
acts az a wonderful salve:
Say. what are you going to have. boys
What are you going to have?"
My throat IL inflamed from smoking
and telling how honest am;
Ny temper and patience I'm losing. but
still I am meek az a lamb.
My rival IL out with his hammer, re-
citing the breaks I have made
The fondness I have for red liquor. the
bills that never have paid.
But, bark to the song am singing: in
sooth. tits q fine brand Of salve:
Say. what are you going to have, boys
What are you going to have?"

Alliance toward Spanish constitutionalism. but
Adams steered him to the declaration OF
thoroughly American policy. which the United
States of itself was prepared to maintain
The other great questions OF Monroe's admin
istration were Internal improvements and the
Missouri Compromise. Monroe fully realized
the benefit TO be derived from internal improve
ments. but was hampered by his constitutional
scruples- His long discussion OF the subject In
his memorandum on the Cumberland Road Is
acute and fairly reasoned from his theory of the
government. but its conclusions are now utterly
disregarded even by those who pretend to his
principles. In the struggle the Missouri
Compromise he saw only effort of the North
and East to grasp power and cripple the growth
of the South. His early prejudices and reminis-
cences of the trouble under the Confederation

Mississippi were revived Mr.. Hamilton prints

interesting to know IL the letter escaped his
notice or he found its publication impossible,
or If it was not properly attributed to Monroe
by President Gilman in his biography. ar.
Hamilton has also apparently been unable to
secure some letters of Monroe contained in the
Adams manuscripts and In the collection Of the
New-York Public Library.
Monroe took no part In the selection of his
successor or in the subsequent contest between
Adams and Jackson. This was owing partly
to his conviction of what becoming In an
ex-President. partly to his relation to the
contestants. He took Office In the fond hope
that this could be made government without
parties. Convinced that the Republicans were
the only true friends of our institutions and that
the Federalists were becoming a negligible
quantity, he saw no reason for division on
principle among good citizens. He did not even
understand the place the necessity OF par
ties in our system when he instead of the
unity he desired the demoralizing divisions on
mere lines OF personal politics. II he had any

dency he was kept busy explaining his atti-
tude and showing that he had never directly
or indirectly authorized Jackson's proceedings.
while carefully refraining from making himself
a partisan. saying anything to the prejudice
OF Jackson Only few days before his death
he made a formal affidavit to the falsity of
charges circulated by johnny Rhea that the
President had told him G}hea) to suggest I'M
officially to Jackson that the administration
would be content to have him go beyond his
orders. In all this affair Monroe's course seems
to have been scrupuously correct He was as
tonished and troubled by JacksOns exploit, felt
obliged to disavOw responsibility for it, yet was
anxious not to hurt the general antagonize
the popular sentiment behind him, and likewise
anxious to turn the incident to use in negotia-
tons with Spain.
Mr. Hamilton includes in his work a valuable
collection OF documents bearing on the origin
Of the Monroe Doctrine. Many Of Monroe's own
writings discuss South American relations and
the recognition OF the new governments but the
papers OF John Quincy Adams reveal much
more the real doctrine in the making Monroe
was ready to make common cause with Great
Britain, and likewise to plunge into European
affairs by recognition of the Greeks and a lect-
