But do not destroy that glorious emblem of humanity — the Declaration of Ameri- can Independence." These words smack of the forest ; sturdy as its oaks, free as its winds, rooted deep in the heart of humanity, lifting high towards heaven the branches of its hope. Mr. Lincoln w^as not elected to the Senate. His long debate before the people, with Mr. Douglas, bore better fruit, both for him and for us. His reputation was enlarged by it. His talents, his earnest convictions, his evident devotion ...to high principles, were displayed on a wider theatre and dreAv atten- tion to his previous career. It was found then, as it has been found since, that wdiat he had always been, was in perfect harmony with what he is. His life throughout was made of the same stuff, and, like a healthy tree, was sound to the heart. Our government had become imbecile and corrupt, through subserviency to the Slave Power. Every concession only increased the arrogant demands of the Southern leaders, who openly threatened to ruin the nation, if they could not rule it.
