Behind these words lay a design, hardly veiled, not only against South America, but against ourselves. In a volume entitled With the Fathers, by John Bach McMaster, and also in the fifth volume of Mr. McMaster's history, chapter 41, you will find more amply what I abbreviate here. Canning understood the threat to us contained in the Holy Alliance.

Life of John Adams, by J.T. Morse, Jr.; Life of Alexander Hamilton, by Lodge; Parton's Life of Jefferson; Bancroft, United States; Daniel Webster, Oration on the Death of Adams and Jefferson; Life of John Jay, by Jay, Flanders, and Whitelocke; Fiske's Critical Period of American History; Sparks' Diplomatic Correspondence of the American Revolution; Rives' Life of Madison; Curtis's History of the Constitution; Schouler's History of the United States; McMaster's History of the People of the United States; Von Holst's Constitutional History; Pitkin's History of the United States; Horner's Life of Samuel Adams, Magruder's Marshall.

Then was written, by Joseph Hopkinson of Philadelphia, and sung for the first time, our national song Hail, Columbia! For an account of the trouble with France read McMaster's History of the People of the United States, Vol. The Alien and Sedition Acts.% Carried away by the excitement of the hour, the Federalists now passed two most unwise laws.

The Jacksonian epoch is treated in Wilson's fourth volume and in McMaster's fifth and sixth volumes. On similar lines, but with more emphasis on political and constitutional matters, is James Schouler's History of the United States under the Constitution, 7 vols.

When the fire began to burn brightly, Ross and Cockburn led the troops to the President's house, which was sacked and burned. Next morning the torch was applied to the Treasury building and to the Departments of State and War. Several private houses and a printing office were also destroyed before the British began a hasty retreat to the Chesapeake. VIII., Chaps. 5, 6; McMaster's History, Vol.

Miss Katharine Coman's The Industrial History of the United States is the best account for general use. J. B. McMaster's History of the United States, vol. v , and F. J. Turner's The Rise of the New West already cited , are always serviceable.

"How many people moved to Gilford out of the two counties?" "Peradventure there might be a hundred found, peradventure there might be fifty, thirty, twenty, ten." "Guess again. Give it up? Not a single solitary soul accepted Mr. McMaster's offer. These are the people who are waiting for Home Rule. Much good may it do them." A little Galway man became irate. "'Tis our birthright to hate England.

XII, there is a similar picture of conditions in the North. McMaster's last volume describes the life of the people for this period. On American sculpture Lorado Taft's American Sculpture , and Charles H. Caffin's American Masters of Sculpture , are useful and discriminating. Caffin has also written The Story of American Painting , which is perhaps the best short account of the subject.

A brief résumé of Wilson's first term is contained in F. A. Ogg's National Progress . More detailed is the first volume of J. B. McMaster's The United States in the World War , which is based upon the newspapers and necessarily lacks perspective, but is comprehensive and extremely useful for purposes of reference.
