But with all these influences, he could not support a dy- nasty which prided itself on its opposition to the pop- ular demand, which was gradually undermining the remnants of liberty bequeathed by the first revolu- tion, and which feared innovation as the instrument of its destruction.
The revolution came : it was accomplished without blood ; the king was driven from the capital, and the Due d'Orleans, his cousin, was raised to the throne.
ALEXIS DE TOCQUEVILLE. 185 De Tocqiieville was neutral ...in the contest. He now, with great reluctance, took the oath prescribed by the new government, in the faint hope that a change for the better had been made, and that the new king would be forced to govern constitutionally, as a means of safety. He taught himself to bear what could not be remedied, yet did not approve what his conscience condemned. He rather acquiesced in than supported the revolution of 1830 ; and he did so with a hesitation which indicated that, while prin- ciple remained unshaken, necessity compelled a course which his convictions reprobated.
