[EAN: 9781332097739], New book, [PU: Forgotten Books, United States], Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****.Excerpt from A Correct Statement of the Various Sources From Which the History of the Administration of John Adams Was Compiled, and the Motives for Its Suppression by Col. Burr: With Some Observations on a Narrative, by a Citizen of New-York No task is more difficult or painful than a proper vindication for a mistatement of the actions of party or of individuals, occasioned by erroneous information or a too implicit confidence in intriguing characters; yet no labour ought to be esteemed more praise-worthy than an investigation of this nature, a correction of errors and a research after truth. The pride or obstinacy inherent in human nature, too often refuses this tribute which virtue requires, and men in general are unfortunately over-zealous to pursue with avidity that road which ignorance once has dictated, rather than to retreat into the more noble path of honest integrity. The politics of America appear to a British alien, on a superficial survey, only as a simple question respecting the preference of aristocracy; but, after a little experience, and a more minute knowledge of parties, a scene of faction and intrigue, pervading all ranks of society, gradually unfolds itself, in a manner that must excite the astonishment even of those best versed in the arts of European policy. The unwary foreigner, acquainted only with those principles fixed by the constitution of the states, readily embraces the cause of that party which appears to show most address, and most zeal in defending the rights of that people among whom he has chosen his future residence.
