7629. RIGHTS OF MAN, Securing.—
Modern times * * * have discovered the
only device by which the rights of man can
be secured, to wit, government by the people,
acting not in person, but by representatives
chosen by themselves; that is to say, by every
man of ripe years and sane mind, who contributes
either by his purse or person to the
support of his country.—
To M. Coray. Washington ed. vii, 319.
