To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
President, I want this Union to be pre- served and to be made perpetual, and in order that it may be perpetual it is necessary that the Sena- tors on the other side when appealed to, as they have been this morning, should at least give a gleam of hope to the southern States that the policy of their incoming administration, if they should succeed in electing a President, will be different from what the local policy of their States has heretofore been with reference to the institution of slavery.... If not, as I stated before, I believe a separation will be inevitable. The Senator from Illinois, the other day, asked why the South looked upon the people of the non- slavehokling States as their enemies, who wished to put the knife to the throats of their wives and children ? It is because they believe the doctrines that are taught by his party lead inevitably to that result. Whether they are right or wrong, they believe it: that is the sentiment of the people of the southern States, and I believe that they intend to resist the acquisition of power in this Confed- eracy by his party, because they think that the election and installation of a Republican President would be their conquest.
