Would you drop the war where it is ? or would you prosecute it in future with elder-stalk squirts charged with rose-water ? Would you deal lighter blows rather then heavier ones ? Would you give up the contest, leaving every available means un- applied ? 96 THE president's words. I am in no boastful mood. I shall not do more than I can, but shall do all I can to save the Gov- ernment, which is my sworn duty, as well as my personal inclination. I shall do nothing in malice. What I deal with is t...oo vast for malicious dealing. Yours very truly, A. Lincoln. Washington, D.C, July 28, 1S62. PROTECTION TO COLORED SOLDIERS.
