Speech of Hon. E. B. Washburne, of lilt., Delivered n the United States House of BepresentativesMay 29, 1860. (CONTINUED.) Following this up, we find Mr. Lincoln ever watchful of the interests of the soldier, proposing to extend the bounty land act, not only so far as regarded the volunteers To Mexico, but to the war-worn veterans of 1812; thus putting in motion that great measure of public justice which was fiuully meted out to those brave and patriotic men. On the proposition to amend the bounty land law of February 11, 1847, which was passed before Mr. Lincoln became a member of Congress, Mr. Lincoln spoke as fallows : "If there was a general desire on the part of the House to pass the bill now, he should be glad to have it done concurring as he did generally with the gentleman from Arkansas Mr. Johnson, that the postponement night jeopardize the safety of the proposition. If, however, a reference was to be made, he wished to make a very few remarks in relation to the several subjects desired by gentlemen to be embraced in amendments to the ninth sectiou of the act of the last session of Congress. The first amendment desired by members of this House had for its only object to give bounty lands to such persons as had served for a time as privates, but had never been discharged as such, because promoted to office. That subject, and no other, was embraced in this bill- There were some others who desired, while they were legislating on this subject, that they should also give bounty lands to the volunteers of the war of 18111. His friend from Maryland Mr. Evans said there were no such men. He (Mr. L.) did not say there were many, but he was very confident there were some. His friend from Kentucky near him Mr. Gaines told him he himself was one. " There was still another proposition touching this matter, that was, that persons tntitled to bounty land t-hould by law be entitled to locate these land; in pi-.rcels, and not be required to locate them in one body, as was provided by the existing law. " Now, he had carefully drawn np a bill embracing these separate propositions,which he intended to propose as a substitute for all these bills in the House, or in Committee of the Whole on the state of the Union, at fome suitable time. If there was a disposition on the part of the House to act at once on this separate proposition, he repeated that, with the gentleman from Arkansas he should prefer it, lest they should loose all. But if there was to ho a reference, he desired to introduce his bill embracing the three propositions thus enabling the Committee and the House to act at the same time, whether favorably or unfavorably, upon all?" Congressional Globe, vol , 18 page 550. Thus it wiil he seen sbat Mr. Lincoln not only favored the bill before the House, but he proposed embracing the soldiers of the war of 1812, and also to authorize tho soldier to locate his land in parcels, and not to be obliged to locate it iu one body; a most just and liberal proposition. On the great question of rivers and harbors, Mr. Lincoln is eminently sound and practical, and his riews must meet with the approbation of the country. On the 22d day of June, ft-lS, lie made a speerh in the House of Representatives, ou the message of President Polk vetoing the river and "harbor bill. In reply to that part of the message of Mr. Polk touching the suggestion of change of the Constitution, he made the following obi-crvaiions, which should sink deep into the b rta of the American people : "Asa general rule, I think we would do much lietter to let it alone. No slight oecossion should tempt us to touch it. Better not take the first step, which may lead to a habit of altering it. Better rather habituate ourselves to think of it as unalterable. It can scarcely be made belter than it is. New provisions would introduce new difficulties, and thus create and increase appetite for still further change. No, sir : let it stand as it is. New hands have never touched it. The men who made it have done their work, and have passed away. Who shall improve on what they did?" After conclusively replying to the arguments of the message, Mr. Lincoln proceeds with the following eminently practical suggestions : " Determine that the thing can and shall be done, and then we shall find the way. The tendency to undue exnansion is unquestionably the chief difficulty. How to do something, and still not to do too much, is the desideratum. Let each contribute

his mite in the way of suggestion The late Silas Wright, in a letter to the Chicago Convention, contributed his, which was worth something ; and I now contribute mine, which may bo worth nothing. At all events, it will mislead nobody, and therefore will do no barm. I would not borrow money. I am against au overwhelming, crushing system. Suppose that, at each session, Congress shall first determine how much money can, for that year, be spared for improvements, then apportion that sum to the most important objects. So far, all is easy ; but how shall we determine which are the most important ? On this question comes the collision of iuterests. I shall be slow to acknowledge that your harbor or your river is more important than mine, and vice versa. To clear this difficulty, let us have that same statistical information which the gentleman from Ohio Mr. Vinton suggested at the beginning of this session. In that information we shall have a stern, unbending basis of facts a basis in no wise subject to whim, caprice, or local interest. The prelimited amount of means will save us from doing too much, and the statistics will save us from doing what we do in wrong places. Adopt and adhere to this course, and, it seems to me, the difficulty is cleared.'' Congressional Globe, vol. 19 page 709. On the passage of the river and harbor bill by the House, August 11, 1838, Mr. Lincoln's name is found in the affirmative. (Congressional Globe, vol. 18, page 1062.) The tariff question was not up in Congress during Mr. Lincoln's term of service, but he nevertheless had an opportunity of putting himself upon the record in favor of protecting the great interests of American labor. Hon. Andrew Stewart, of Pennsylvania, called " Tariff Andy," on the 19th day of June, 1848, asked leave to introduce the following resolution : "Resolved, That the Committe of Ways and Means be instructed to inquire into the expediency of reporting a bill increasing the duties on foreign luxuries of all kinds, and on such foreign manufactures as are now coming into ruinous competition with American labor." Upon the question being taken, Mr. Lincoln voted in the affirmative. (Congressional Globe, vol. IS, page 852.) Mr. Lincoln was an early aDd consistent advocate of the doctrine of slavery prohibition in the Territories, and of the power of Congress over them. He voted for the amendment to the Oregon bill, which extended the ordinance of 1787 over Oregon Territory, and for the bill thus amended. ( Congressional Globe, vol. 18, page 1027 ) Such is the record made by Mr. Lincoln on all the important matters before Congress while he was a member. Though serving his constituents with ability and fidelity, and to the entire satisfaction of his friends, he declined a re-nomination, preferring the quiet pursuit of his profession, and the enjoyments of private life, to the blandishments of office and the turmoil of political strife. Vet, such was his interest in political matters, and o dee;.'y did he feel the importance to the country of the success of the principles he upheld, that he actively participated iu the Presidential contest of 1852. The rapeal of the Missouri compromise, in 1854, called Mr. Lincoln again into the field of politics, and he threw himself into the great contest of that year, with all the energy of his character and the power of his will. Stumping the State in all directions, and speaking to immense audiences, he awakened the people to the aggressive character of that legislation, and called on them to rebuke that " ruthiess hand" which dared to break down that sacred compromise, and which, in the words of Senator Douglas, " was akin to the Constitution, and canonize! iu the hearts of (he American people." Upou the Legislature elected that year devolved the duty of electing an United States Senator, in the place of General Shields, who had voted for the Kansas-Nebraska bill. The Whigs and Anti-Nebraska Democrats constituted a majority of both branches of that Legislature, but five-sixths of this majority had been Whigs, and Mr. Lincoln was their first choice for Senator. The Anti-Nebraska Democrats presented Judge Trumbull as a candidate, and Mr. Lincoln finding after the balloting commenced that the continuance of his name before the joint Convention might result iu the election of the Nebraska Democratic candidate, magnanimously withdrew from the contest, and earnestly entreated his friends to elect Jndge Teumbull, an Anti-Nebraska Democrat, whose subsequent career in the Senate has been marked by great ability, and by strict fidelity to the convictions of those who elected him. In 185G, the Uepublicau party iu Illinois was fully inaugurated as a State organization at the Bloomington Convention, held in May of that year. Mr. Lincoln was present at that Convention, and gave the weight and influence of his great name to the establishment of that party, and to a bold and emphatic declaration of principles. His speech upon that occasion was one of the most masterly efforts of his life, and carried conviction to all minds, stirring up the Convention to the highest pitch of enthusiasm, and nerving every man with resolute determination. He was placed ou the ReRepublican electoral ticket as an elector at large, associated with Frederic decker, the German patriot and orator, who had fought for liberty in his native land, and whose eloquence awakened in the hearts of his countrymen the highest emotions of patriotism. In that campaigu Mr. Lincoln again cauvassed the State, laboring with great earnestness and zeal ; and it could truly be taid of him, "No dangers daunted, and no labors tired." Though Mr. Buchanan carried the State, yet the entire Republican State ticket was elected. Great interest wasceutered in the election of 1853 the Legislature to be elected was to name a successor to Judge Douglas in the Senate of the United States. The Republican State Convention for that year, to nominate candidates for State officers, with entire unanimity and amid unbounded euthusiasm designated Mr. Lincoln as the choice of the Republicans of the State ("or United States Senator, to succeed Judge Douglas. Of all the able and distinguished in the State, such was the hold of Mr. Lincoln on the party, such was the demotion of the masses to his interest, that no other name was suggested or thought of iu connection with the candidacy for Senator. I will uow allude to some of the incidents of the great campaign of 1858. between Lincoln and Douglas, which assumed national proportions, and attracted the attention of all parts of the couutry, bv the ability and vigor of the discussions and the intense excitement which attended the tauvass. All the great questions that now agitate the country were fully aud elaboratelv discussed in their debates, and Mr. Lincoln's position on those queslious can be most fully aud satisfactorily understood by a reference thereto. In a discussion at Freeport, in my owu district, at which I was present, Mr. Douglas submitted to Mr. Lincoln a series of interrogatories, embracing all the various

propositions involved in the question of slavery. I cannot do better here than to extract the questions and answers from a recent speech of the distinguished Senator from Louisiana, Mr. Benjamin, in the United States Senate, together with his comment thereon. Speaking of that canvass, Mr. Benjamin says : " In that contest, the two candidates for the Senate of the United States, in the State of Illinois, went before their people. They agreed to discuss the issues ; they put questions to each other for answer; and I must say here, for I must be just to all, that I have been surprised in the examination that I made again within the last few days of this discussion between Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Douglas, to find that Mr. Lincoln is a far more conservative man, unless he has since changed his opinions, than I had supposed him to lie. There was no dodging on his part. Mr. Douglas started with his questions. Here they are, with Lincoln's answers : " Question 1. I desire to know whether Lincoln to-day stands, as be did in 1854, in favor of the unconditional repeal of the fugitive slave law? " Answer. 1 do not now, nor ever did, stand in favor of the unconditional repeal of the fugitive slave law. "Question 2. I desire him to answer whether be stands pledged to-day, as he did in 1854, against the admission of any more slave States into the Union, even if the people want them ? "Answer. I do not now, nor ever did, stand pledged against the admission of any more slave States into the Unior "Question 3. I want to know whether he stands pledged against the admission of a new State into the Union with such a Constitution as the people of that State may see fit to make ? "Answer. I do not stand pledged against the admission of a new State into the Union with such a Constitution as the people of that State may see fit to make. "Question 4. I want to know whether he stands to-day pledged to the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia? "Answer. I do not stand to-day pledged to the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. "Quettion o. I desire him to answer whether he stands pledged to the prohibition of the slave trade between the different States? "Answer. I do not stand pledged to the prohibition of the slave trade between the different States. "Question 6. I desire to know whether he stands pledged to prohibit slavery in all the Territories of the United States, north as well as south of the Missouri compromise line ? ''Answer. I am impliedly, if not expressly, pledged to a belief in the right and duty of Congress to prohibit slavery in all the United States Territories. "Question 7. I desire him to answer whether he is opposed to the acquisition of any new territory unless slavery i3 first prohibited therein '? "Answer. I am not generally opposed to honest acquisition of territory ; and in any given case, I would or would not oppose such acquisition, accordingly as I might think such acquisition would or would not aggravate the slavery question among ourselves." (Debates of Lincoln and Douglas, page 88.) " It is impossible, Mr. President, however we may differ in opinion with the man, not to admire the perfect candor and frankness with which these answers were given; no equivocation no evasion." Nothing can be more just than the compliments paid by the distinguished Louisiana Senator to the candor and frankness of Mr. Lincoln. It is not an unusual thing for him to extort expressions of admiration from his opponents, for the frankness and candor of his arguments, both in political discussion and at the bar. It was said of him by one of the Judges of our Supreme Court, that he stated the propositions and arguments of his adversary so fully and fairly, that but little further was necessary to be said.
