He was what the naturalists call a " unique species ;" we must place him in an order of which he is the sole type. Lincoln's moral characteristics. In that subtle element which we call character, Lincoln is entitled to a high place. His appetites and passions were under perfect control. He was neither glutton nor drunkard. He had the primitive qualities of justice and truth in a high degree. From the crown of his bushy black hair to the sole of his feet he was a Man, and loved manliness in his ...fellows. Selfishness and greed he despised. He had that rare power that Milton gives to the spear of Ithuriel, to detect with "touch of heavenly temper " the lurking meanness and self- ishness in others. He was simple and sincere ; absolutely without affectation, and free from eccentricities, unless his story-telling may be so classed. He had a kind heart, and a gentle as well as a genial nature. " I have not willingly planted a thorn in any man's bosom," he said, and truly. He was not a self-assertive man, though at times, when his long-enduring patience was unduly tried, he could and did assert the rights of his position.
