[ED: Taschenbuch], [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Chips From the White House: Or, Selections From the Speeches, Conversations, Diaries, Letters, and Other Writings, of All the Presidents of the United States The present volume is not intended to be so much a contribution to political science, as to exhibit an interesting phase in American history, as it appears in the opinions, upon a variety of subjects of general interest, political and otherwise, of the men who, during the period of nearly a century, have successively reached the highest position in the Republic. It is an occasion for just pride for ourselves, and cheering anticipations for mankind, that, beyond all precedent in ancient and modern times, in the regular succession of rulers, the chief magistrates of the United States have all been men of fair reputation and abilities, and many of them men of superior intellectual capacity and singular devotion to the interests of humanity and freedom. This fact speaks loudly in favor of popular self-government, as opposed to hereditary rule. In this important respect, as in other ways, the people have never failed to show their capacity to manage their own affairs.

Paperback, [PU: Forgotten Books], Excerpt from Chips From the White House: Or, Selections From the Speeches, Conversations, Diaries, Letters, and Other Writings, of All the Presidents of the United States In the case of two or three of the Presidents, the selections from their writings are necessarily brief and unsatisfactory but for the rest, more abundant mate rial has enabled us to present their opinions with sufficient fulness. It is proper to state that for the conversations of General Grant, we are indebted to a work of much interest and value Around the World with General Grant in 187 7 - 1879, by john R. Young. J. C.
