Excerpt from Portraits of British Americans, Vol. 3: With Biographical Sketches They were the war politics of old England, which they had studied and which they continued to study; the politics of immobility and resistance, of scorn and defiance, of prejudice and contempt, - such politics as were probably adapted to the duties and exigences of very perilous times, when the constitution was battered by those storms of Opinion which beat against it from republican America and revolutionary France. The majority of the loyalists were epis oopalians, and thought as men were accustomed to think at that day, that church and state were one and indivisible. They attached value to the protests and subscriptions which guarded the former, and the oaths and tests which fenced the latter. They caressed a prejudice or an aversion with as much tenderness as they obeyed a law or reverenced a custom. In short, they were good old tbry gentlemen of the olden time, who followed the course of English history with leisurely deliberation, and analyzed every change of English Opinion with suspicious avoidance, and who consequently found themselves unprepared to discuss a project of amelioration, or a question of reform, in any other attitude than the attitude of resistance, or with any other arguments than those which time had rendered threadbare or which experience had made worthless.
