Under a Representative Democracy tho' there can be no
— Majesty, divine or human, nor any thing of that stamp
there may be hostility: for there may be disagreement: disagreement
by men in any numbers on 2 two opposite sides: &
how improbabley soever, conceivably not the less, such disagreement
may rise to hostility. Here there is war: & this war
a civil war. War then, evil on each side be carried on against
the other. But to what purpose? To the same purpose
as in the case between 2 nations foreign to each other:
possession for example of a portion of territory, or a sum
of money in dispute. It will be carried on in what manner?
As in the case of ordinary war, carried on between civilized
nations,: it will be carried on, by each in such a manner
as shall present to its view, the promise for the attainment
of such its end, with the least damage — in the
first place to itself, in the next place to the enemy.
