Means

This indirect, & as it were covert mode of removal, is
much more efficient & salutary, than that direct mode which
would be the most apt to be presented, by this appellative. To
the person over whom the power is exercised it is much less
harsh & galling: on the part of the person by whom it is
exercised, the exercise of it will therefore naturally experience
much less reluctance. In the case of the direct mode, if
there be any other candidate, the inaptitude, the opinion of which
is expressed by the forbearance to elect the person in question is
not positive and absolute, it is only comparative imperative: the opinion
that it declares is,— not that the person thus set aside is less
apt than an average man — not that he is positively unapt:
Only that he is less apt than the person for whom the vote is
given
