Excerpt from The Magazine of History With Notes and Queries, 1913: Extra Number No; 26; Narratives of Indian Warfare in the West (1799) (1821)

We are sure our readers will find this a very interesting article.

It might be thought strange to call a public document scarce - yet as a. Matter Of fact the celebrated Address to the special ses sion Of Congress - 1 861 - is fairly entitled to that adjective. In it appears the celebrated phrase sugar-coated, which occasioned Seward's famous adverse criticism and Mr. Lincoln's equally famous reply to his objection.

The various speeches by Englishmen Of note, as well as Emer son's Address, have not been reprinted before; General Hamlin's account of the assassination appeared only in a volume Of Loyal Legion papers, - which are unknown to the general public - and Mr. Malet's brief account Of his interview in 1862 reports a state ment by the President about his nomination which we have not seen reported by any other writer.
