Some candidates only say what they will do ; but Mr. Lincoln has not left you to infer what he will not do. He has told you himself what he will not do. That is the man we have elected; and you can find in his record that he will not dis- turb slavery anywhere. He is against any such thing; and if he were not, he has family connections, social ties, and kindred, that would prevent him. These are higher guarantees than parchment. I would rather have the fer- vent, effectual prayer of a righteous... man for this Union, than all you can write on parchment to save it. 10 I thought when I got up {hat T would keep my voice from rising, because when men's voices rise, sometimes their feelings get the better of them. I thought I would talk as if I was talking to my brothers, making not argu- ments but suggestions. No man felt more deeply impressed with the- beautiful effort of the Senator from New York, (Mr. Seward, ) than I did. It came from the light quarter to give peace. But the very next speech that was made after it, was the bitterest I have heard in the Senate.
