He served four years in the legislature of the State of his adoption, during which time he again turned his attention to the study of law, finally settling at Springfield in that State to practice his profession. He was a member of the National Convention which nominated General Taylor for the Presidency 10 in 1848. He was a representative in Congress from Illinois from 1847 to 1849, serving upon important committees. He became better known to the Ameri- can public, acquiring distinction, by hi...s series of debates with the honorable and lamented Stephen A. Douglas, when a seat in the United States Senate was contingent upon the result. He was nominated and elected to the Presidency of the Republic for the term commencing the 4th of March, 1861; and having faithfully served the country for four years, he was again most triumphantly re-elected for another term, carrying with him, not the ballots only, but the hearts of the people. He was inaugurated the second time on the 4th of March, 1865, and was assassinated at the instigation of the treason which he had so successfully frustrated in its purposes, on the 14th of April, 1865, his great life going out at twenty-two minutes past seven o'clock on the following morning.
