What reading level is The Utica Convention book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But their leading men were cut down in consequence. Mr. Marcy be- came a candidate for the gubernatorial chair in 1838, and was beaten of course. The State swung into the federal ranks, and in the presiden- tial canvass of 1840 the individual who recom- mended the measure, in '•ommon with the whole party throughout the Union, experienced a signal and disastrous defeat. But the great principle put forward, the great measure itself, was not fi nally overthrown, and although many of the pro- minen...t men who contended for it, suffered for it, the measure itself became the law of the land, as has been well said, *' in spite of lamentations here or elsewhere, " and the President was elected at the succeeding election on that principle, and it is now the settled policy of the land.
So too when the dempcracy proposed the bill calling a Convention to amend the Con- stitution, it was charged that we were divid- ing the democratic party, that we were intro- ducing a new test and were going with the whigs, and that great measure which should have re- ceived tlie support of every true domocrat, ex- perienced the abu?e and opposition of the Alba- ny Argus to a degree hardly ever equalled.
