Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Abraham Lincoln, Vol. 1: Drawn From Original Sources and Containing Many Speeches, Letters, and Telegrams Hitherto Unpublished and Illustrated With Many Reproductions From Original Paintings, Photographs, Etc; Part One of the First Volume
It has long been a grave question whether any gov ernment not too strong for the liberties of its people can be strong enough to maintain its existence in great emergencies. On this point, the present rebellion brought our republic to a severe test, and the Presidential election, occurring in regular course during the rebellion, added not a little to the strain. The strife of the election is but human nature practically applied to the facts in the case. What has occurred in this case must ever occur in similar cases. Human nature will not change. In any future great national trial, com pared with the men of this, we shall have as weak and as strong, as silly and as wise, as bad and as good. Let us therefore study the incidents in this as philosophy to learn wisdom from and none of them as wrongs to be avenged. Now that the election is over, may not all having a common interest reunite in a common effort to save our common country? For my own part.
