{"value"=>"In answer to a letter of April 24, which inclosed an attack on Reeve by certain democrats; he maintains that the statements made in it are not blasphemous, not even injurious; inveighs against democrats and democracy; they would subvert all government, human and divine; that they have singled Reeve out to be crushed, is the greatest honor they could confer; envy is perhaps the governing principle of the lower classes; they are glad when their betters are humbled and the leaders of democracy taking advantage of this depraved temper blot out whatever is valuable, in society."}
