Then Illinois will be not a Northern state or a Southern state, but both in one, and might at some future time be- the keystone to the perpetuity of the Union. The amendment was adopted and the bill passed. Illinois was thus, at her very birth, pledged to maintain the Union. How well she has redeemed that pledge, and at what cost, the nation knows. "Abraham L/incoln's name appears, Grant and Logan and our tears, Illinois. " Into the new state poured two streams of immigration, one from the Nort...h, the other from the South. Northern Illi- nois was largely settled from New England and New York. Southern Illinois, though its first American settler was a Massa- chusetts man, was mainly settled from Kentucky, North Caro- lina, Virginia and Maryland. By i860 it had become the fourth state of the Union, northern and southern at the same time, and the North connected with the South by the Illinois and Michigan canal and the Illinois Central railroad. It could fairly claim to be the representative state of the whole nation.
