II Experience
(4) 1. United States
"agitate America. But how great is the surprise of the traveller,
" when he sees them all co-exist in that perfect calm
"which, as it would seem, can never be ruffled: when, in the
"very same house, the father, the mother, the children, each
"follows peaceably, and without opposition, that mode of worship
"which he prefers'. I have been more than once a Witness
"of this spectacle, which nothing that I have ever seen in
"Europe could have prepared me to expect. On the day consecrated
"to religion, all the individuals of the same family set
"out together; each went to the minister of his own sect: and
"they afterwards returned home, to employ themselves in common
"in their domestic concerns. This diversity of opinion
"did not produced any in their feelings, or in their own other habits
"there were no disputes, not even a question on the subject."(7.)

ib. p.4. "The proofs of our happy condition, we had rather
'should be derived from foreigners, than that they should rest
"upon our declarations; it has been acknowledged, "that the
"poorest individual (in the United States) even the simple
"labourer, is there better fed and clothed than in any other
"country; no person is ever met with in rags, the meanest
"labourers are well clad." (9)

ib. p.11.l.3. In the language of Mr Carnot, "it is in the
"nature of their government that we are to seek for the instability
"of great republics: it is because being hastily
"put together in the midst of civil convulsions, enthusiasm
"always presides over their establishment. One only
"has been the work of philosophy: organized in the calm
"of peace, this republic subsists full of wisdom and vigour
"the United States of North America present this
"phenomenon, and their prosperity constantly receives
"accessions which excite the wonder and admiration of
"other nations. There was it reserved for the new world to teach
"the old, that nations may tranquilly exist under the dominion of liberty and equality +
