Text of the page (random words):
and land in the affair of tippecanoe and of the president and little belt the growing desire for war was shown in the choice of henry clay for speaker of the house of representatives and mr madison was nominated for a second term on condition of adopting the war policy on 18 june 1812 war was declared and before the autumn election a series of remarkable naval victories had made it popular mr madison was re elected by 128 electoral votes against 89 for dewitt clinton of new york the one absorbing event which filled the greater part of his second was the war with great britain which was marked by some brilliant victories and some grave disasters including the capture of washington by british troops and the flight of the government from the national capital whatever opinion may be held as to the character of the war and its results there is a general agreement that its management on the part of the united states was feeble mr madison was essentially a man of peace and as the manager of a great war he was conspicuously out of his element act of june 18 1812 declaration of war with great britain with president james madison speaker henry clay and vice president william crawford s signatures the history of that war plays a great part in the biographies of the military and naval heroes that figured in it it is a cardinal event in the career of andrew jackson or isaac hull in the biography of madison it is an episode which may be passed over briefly the greatest part of his career was finished before he held the highest offices his renown will rest chiefly or entirely upon what he did before the beginning of the 19th century after the close of his second term in 1817 mr madison retired to his estate at montpelier where he spent nearly twenty happy years with books and friends this sweet and tranquil old age he had well earned by services to his fellow creatures such as it is given to but few men to render among the founders of our nation his place is beside that of washington hamilton jefferson and marshall but his part was peculiar he was preeminently the scholar the profound constructive thinker and his limitations were such as belong to that character he was modest quiet and reserved in manner small in stature neat and refined courteous and amiable in rough party strife there were many who could for the moment outshine him he was not the
