5357. MONARCHY vs. REPUBLIC,—[continued].

We were educated in
royalism; no wonder if some of us retain that
idolatry still. Our young people are educated
in republicanism; an apostasy from that to
royalism, is unprecedented and impossible.—
To James Madison. Washington ed. iii, 5. Ford ed., v, 83.
(P. 1789)
