7758. SECTIONALISM, Peace and.—
I
am so completely withdrawn from all attention
to public matters, that nothing less could
arouse me than the definition of a geographical
line which, as an abstract principle, is to
become the line of separation of these States,
and to render desperate the hope that man
can ever enjoy the two blessings of peace and
self-government.—
To H. Nelson. Washington ed. vii, 151.
Ford ed., x, 156.
