7165. REASON, Umpirage of.—
We
should be most unwise, indeed, were we to
cast away the singular blessings of the position
in which nature has placed us, the opportunity
she has endowed us with * * *
of cultivating general friendship, and of
bringing collisions of interest to the umpirage
of reason rather than of force.—
Third Annual Message. Washington ed. viii, 29.
