The House being in Commitlet' of the Whole on the state of the Union Mr. WASHBURNE, of Illinois, said: Mr. CiiArRMAN : The Republican party, through its proper organization, has placed in nomination for President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois. The people, who will be called upon to pass upon that nomination, have a right to inquire into the life, the character, and the political opinions, of the man who is commended to their suffrages for the highest office in their gift. The State which I in part represent on this floor, having been honored by this nomination, 1 come here to-day to speak of the personal and political history ot the candidate. I have known Mr. Lincoln well for twenty years. I have known him in private life, I have known him at the bar, and have been associated with him in every political contest in our State since the advent of " Tippecanoe and Tyler too?'' in 1840. While 1 may speak with the accents of a fctrong personal friendship, I shall speak with the frankness of conscious truth, and, I trust, without exaggeration. Springing from the humblest ranks in life, and unaided by the adventitious supports of family or wealth, Mr. Lincoln has reached bis present exalted position by the strength of his will, the power of his intellect, and the honesty of bis heart. He was born iu Hardin rnanlr. Kpnfnrkv FAhm,riT it j, j, - - j ., 1808; his family removed to Spencer couu- j ty, Indiana, in 181C, where he passed his 1 boyhood amid the roughest hardships and ! the most trying experiences of a frontier! life. Without schools, and, almost without books, he spent his time amid the wild and romantic scenes of the border, alleviating the hard labors of the farm by the sport of the huntsman. Of fine physical development, with a vigorous intellect, quick intelligence, ready vll and genial character, he gave early evidences of the superiority he ha3 since attaiued. His first advent into the great world, from the comparative seclusion of ''is froruier home, ,vas down the Wabash and Ohio rivers in charge of a jlatboat, of a class known to all the old river men of the West a3 " broadhorns." These boats, laden with the productions of the farmers, floated down stream until a market was found lor the cargo; and when that wns disposed of, the boat itself was sold, anil those in charge made their way back, in the best manner they could, to Iheir homes. A great many persons have heard Mr. Lincoln relate, with inimitable effect, the anecdotes of his experience of that portion of bis life. In 1830, Mr. Lincoln emigrated to that State, with which his greal name has now become historically connected. He passed the first year in Macon county, and actively labored on a farm, where he and a fellowlaborer, by the name of John Hanks, split three thousand rails. This portion of the history of Mr. Liucoln'9 lile gave rise to the incident in the late Republican Stale Convention at Decatur, in Macon county, which awakened the inteusest enthusiasm of that vast concourse of citizens from all parts of the State. Mr. Lincoln was present as a spectator iu that Convention, and was invited to take a seat upon the platform. When he had taken his seat, it was announced to the Convention that John Hanks, an old Democrat, who bad grown grey in the service of that party, desired to make a contribution to the Convention ; and the offer being accepted, forthwith two old-tirae fencerails, decorated with flags and streamers, were borne through the crowd into the Convention, bearing the inscription : ABRAHAM LINCOLN, The Rail Candidate FOB PBESIDENT IN 180 0. Two rails from a lot of 3,000 made in 1830 by John Hanks aud Abe Lincoln. The effect was electrical. One spontaneous burst of applause went up from all parts of the " wigwam.'' Of course Mr. Lincoln was called out, and made an explanation of the matter. He stated that, some thirty ycar3 ago, then just emigrating to the State, he stopped with his mother's family, for one season, in what is now Macon county j that he built a cabin, split raih, and cultivated a small farm down on the Sangamon river, some six or eight miles from Decatur. These, he was informed, were taken from that f.nce ; but, whether they were or not, he baa mauled many, and better ones, since ho had grown to manhood.
From Macon countv ha removed to a sat
; tlement called New Salem, which was then in Sangamon, but now in Menard county. It was at. New Salem 4it Judge Douglas says he first knew Liti$pln, and I cannot do belter than to read here an extract from I one of his speeches, made in the Illinois campaign in 1858, at Ottawa: " In the remarks I have made on this I platform, and the position of Mr. Lincoln upon it. I mean nothing personally disrespectful or unkind to that gentleman. I have known him for nearly twenty-five years. There were many points of eympai tby between us when we first got acquainted. We were both comparatively boys, aud both struggling with poverty in a strange land. I was a school teacher in the town of Winchester, and he a flourishing grocerykeeper in the town of Salem. He was more successful in his ocenpation than I was in mine, and hence more fortunate in this world's goods. Lincoln is one of those peculiar men who perform with admirable skill everything which they undertake." Lincoln , and Douglas Debates, page 69. The last sentence in the above extract is worthy of especial note. Such a compliment extorted from his bitterest adversary has a greatly enhanced value. When Mr. Lincoln shall have undertaken the administration of the Government of this great country, the people will agree with Mr. ' Douglas that " Lincoln is one of those peculiar men who perform with admirable tkiliv erg thing which they undertake." Again: Mr. Douglas, in a speech in the Senate of the United States, January 23, j 18G0, refers to Mr. Lincoln as one of " the ablest and moet clearheaded men " of the Republican party. It may be proper, however, here, to let the following reply of Mr. Lincoln be heard in regard to his being a "flourishing gro- ! eery -keeper : " "The Judge i3 wofully at fault about his early friend Lincoln being a 1 grocery-keeper.' I don't know as it would be a great sin, if I had been; but he is mistaken. Lincoln never kept a grocery anywhere in i the world. It is true that Lincoln did work the latter part of one winter in a little stillhouse, up at the head of a hollow." Now it is proposed, that as Lincoln spent a " part of the winter in a little still-house, up at the head of a hollow," he shall spend the whole of four winters, at least, in a large white house at the head of Pennsylvania avenue. The Black Hawk war having broken out, Mr. Lincoln was among the first to raise a company of volunteers for that service, and he acquitted himself with credit. Returning from that campaign, he began in earnest to devote the energies of his great intellect and superior will to the acquuisition of knowledge. He first acquired a knowledge of the art of surveying, but the demand for his services in that line of business was not sufficient to support him, and he was compelled to surrender up his mathematical and surveying instruments io the sheriff, to be sold on execution. Nothing daun . d by his mMortttM, then it was he commenced i:,t study of lhat professsion upon which hi- has conferred so much honor, r.i.J io which he has attained so great a distinction. Borrowing a few elementary law books, he learned the rudiments of the profession by the dim light thrown out from the fire-place of a log cabin. In 18"G he was placed iu nomination, by the Whigs of Sangamon county, tor a seat in the lower branch of the Legislature, which then met at Vandalia. He was f leeted, aud gave early evidence of the superior qualities of his mind, and his skill and power as adebater. He was re-elected, and served two subsequent sessions. Wider aveuues were now opened to him in the acquisition of general knowledge, and of the knowledge of the law, which he improved to the utmost. Changing his residence from a precinct in the county to Springfield, which had then become the capital ot the State, and where he has ever siuce resided, he whs admitted to the bar, aud embarked in his profession. His success was immediate. He displayed a knowledge of the principles of the law almost intuitive, and his arguments were marked by strength of reasoning, keenness of logic, a rough eloquence, and a flow of wit and humor. His fairness to his adversary, his disdain of all the little tricks which sometimes disgrace the profession, bis entire candor and truthfulness, his original and easy mode of illustration, made him all powerful before a jury. He now ranks as the ablest and most successful lawyer in the State. Mv first knon ledge of Mr. Lincoln was in the great campaign of 1840. He was then an elector on the Harrison electoral ticket. He stumped all the middle and lower part of the State with great effect, traveling from the Wabash to the Mississippi i" the hot months of July and August, shaking with the ague one day, and addressing the people the next, and establishing a reputation ns one of the most effective and popular speakers in the State, a reputation which he has ever since maintained. From 1840 to 1844 Mr. Lincoln devoted himself entirely to the active pursuit of his profession. The Clay campaigu of 1844 brought him again into the political arena, and he headed the Whig electoral ticket in that canvass. He stumped the State, speaking to immense audiences everywheie he went, winning the applause of his friends, and extorting the admiration of his enemies, for his eloquent aud masterly expositions of the principles of his party. After the de feat of Mr. Clay, and up to 1846, he whs found devoted to his profession. In August of 134( he was elected to Congress, by the Whigs of the Springfield district, to succeed Col. E. I). Baker. In December, 1847, Mr. Lincoln took his seat in Congress. It is but proper that his recorded opinions, while a member of Congress, upon the questions then agitating the country, should be known, aud I now propose to briefly review the record made by him in the Thirtieth Congress. In the House of Representatives, on the :sd of January, 1848, Mr. Evans, of Maryland, offered the following resolution : "Resolved, That the capitulation of Monterey meets with the entire sanction and approbation of this Congress, and that the terras of that capitulation were as creditable to the humanity and skill of the gallant Taylor, as the achievement cf the victory of Monterey was glorious to our arms." Mr. Ashmun, of Massachusetts, moved to amend by adding the words: "in a war unnecessarily and unconstitutionally begun by the President of the United States." The yeas and nays were ordered upon this amendment, and it was agreed to yeas 85, nays 81. (Congressional Globe, vol. 18, page 95.) It was a strict party vote, every Whig member of the House voting in the affirmative. Among the distinguished names of those who voted for this amendment I find that of Abraham Lincoln. I find also that he voted in what would now be called good Democratic company, and with men vrlionrc at the present time bright and shining lights in the Democratic partv, and who have never been denounced as traitors, taking sides with the enemy in time of war. Hon. Thos. L. Clingman, at present a Democratic Senator from North Carolina; Hon. Alexander H. Stephens, of
Georgia, a leader of the Democratic party
in the House or Representatives for several Congresses prior to the present one; Hon. Thomaa Butler King, of Georgia, now a Democratic member of the Semite of thi t State Hon. Daniel M. Barringer, of North Carolina, late Minister to Spain,- now a Demo-rat ; and Hon. Robert Toomb3, the present able and distinguished Senator from Georgia, all of whom served with Mr. Lincoln in the Thirtieth Congress with whom Mr. Toombs says, iu a late speech, he had an "agreeable acquaintance," and all of whom voted precisely as Lincoln did, for this amendment of Mr. Ashmun. In regard to this vote, I prefer to let Mr. Lincoln speak for himself. In replying to a speech of Judge Douglas, in the celebrated campaign in our State in 1858, Mr. Lincoln said : ' And so I think my friend, the Judge, is equally at fault, when he charges me, at the time when I was in Congress, of having opposed our soldiers who were fighting in the Mexican war. The Judge did not make hi3 charge very distinctly ; but I can tell you what he can prove by referring to the record. Yon remember I was an old Whig, and whenever the Democratic party tried to get me to vote that the war bad been righteously begun by the President, I would not do it. But whonevcr they asked for any money, or land warrants, or anything to pay the soldiers there, during all that lime, I gave the same vote that Judge Douglas did. You can think as you please ns to whether that was consistent. Such is the truth ; and the Judge has the right to make all he can out of it. But when he by a general charge conveys the idea that I withheld supplies from the soldiers who were fighting in the Mexican war, or did anything else to hinder the soldiers, he is, to say the least, grossly and altogether mistaken, as a consulta tion of the records will prove to him." (Lincoln and Douglas Debates, page 75. ) In a speech in this House, on the 27th day of July, 1848, Mr. Lincoln, referring to the same matter, spoke in the following language of truth, eloquence, and patriotism : " If, when the war had begun, and had become the cause of the country, the giving of our money and our blood, in common with yours, was support of the war, then it is not true that we have always opposed the war. With few individual exceptions, you have constantly had our votes here for all the necessary supplies. And, more than this, you have had the services, the blood, and the lives, of our political brethren, in every trial, and on every field. The beardless boy and the mature man, the humble and the distinguished you have had them. Through snffering and death, by disease and in battle, they have endured and fought and fell with you. Clay and Webster each gave a son, never to be returned. From the State of my own residence, besides other worthy but less known Whig names, we sent Marshall, Morrison, Baker, and Hardin ; they all fought, and one fell, and in the fall of that one we lost our best W hig man. " Nor were the Whigs few in number, or laggard in the day of danger. In that fearful, bloody, breathless struggle at Buena Vista, where each man's hard task was to beat back five foes or die himself, of the five high officers who perished, four were Whigs. " In speaking of this, I mean no odious comparison between the lion-hearted Whigs and Democrats who fought there. On other occasions, and among the lower officers and privates on that occasion, I doubt not the proportion was different. I wish to do justice to all. I think of all those brave men as Americans, iu whose proud fame, as an American, I too have a share. Many of them, Whigs and Democrats, are my constituents and personal friends ; and I thank them more than thank them one and all, for the high, imperishable honor tbey have couferred on our common State." (Con- I gressional Globe, vol. 19, page 1042.) Such being the patriotic and consistent , position of Mr. Lincoln on tho war, when j the bill for supplies for our army in Mexico : came up on the 8th day of March, 1848, his j vote is of course found recorded in favor of the bill.
