His argument is characterized by the practical readiness and directness of a prudent and just man of affairs, rather than by the circuitous abstractions of academic su...btlety. His convictions are supported not by metaphysical ingenuity, but by appealing to reason and common sense and the actual practice of his time. He is not partial to visionary theories, and yet does not apotheosise mere precedent. He takes a middle course, supplementing actual practice by the corrective criterion of reason, and interpreting the philosophical demands of reason in the light of actiial facts, the necessities of daily life, the in- evitable human limitations, and the allowances to be made for the maintenance of harmonious international relationships.
