293 . A New Race

Between the election 
 of President Jefferson and the election of Pres - ident Jackson great changes had taken place . The old Revolutionary statesmen had gone . New men had taken their places . The old sleepy life had gone . Everywhere now was bus - tle and hurry . In 1800 the Federalists favored the British , and the Republicans favored the French . Now no one seemed to care for either the British or the French . At last the people had become Americans . The Federalist party had disappeared . Every one now was either a National Republican and voted for Adams , or a Democratic Republican and voted for Jackson .
