FOOTNOTES:

[66] Heffter, par. 7, p. 14: “With respect to non-Christian states, which are not yet regularly admitted into the bosom of the European family, the application of the same law is entirely free, and founded upon a purely conventional reciprocity. Relations with them are formed according to the exigencies of policy and morality.”
