Digitized by VjOOQIC HIS LATEST VIEWS AND SENTIMENTS. 241 more and more that this American world was not made for me." 1 In this passage he distinctly utters his own con- sciousness of the discord between himself and the political drift of the country. It would probably have been too much to expect of human weakness and fallibility that he should have been able to exert those influences which... we have traced in his career, upon the faults of American public life, yet should have been able to maintain sympathy with the in- vincible forces which predominated in it, so that he could co-operate with them.
Hamilton favoured the constitutional amendment changing the mode of electing presidents.* The re- peal of the Judiciary Act seemed to him so serious that he wanted a conference of the leading federalists as to the course to be pursued. 8 In April, 1802, he wrote : " It has ever appeared to me a sound prin- ciple to let the Federal Government rest as much as possible on the shoulders of the people, and as 1 little as possible on those of the State legislatures." 4 \ " Men are rather reasoning than reasonable animals, * for the most part governed by the impulse of pas- sion.
