Yrs truly Schuyler Colfax / Sept 10 1877Schuyler Colfax 1823-1885 born in New York City moved with his family to Indiana when he was an adolescent. Colfax pursued a career in journalism serving as legislative correspondent for the Indiana State Journal and becoming part-owner of the Whig organ of northern Indiana the South Bend Free Press renamed the St. Joseph Valley Register in 1845. Colfax was a member of the 1850 state constitutional convention and four years later was elected as a Republican to Congress where he served until 1869.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION
A Copperhead Newspaper Prints Then Criticizes the Emancipation Proclamation
New York N.Y. 1863. No binding. Fine. New York Journal of Commerce. Newspaper. New York Journal of Commerce. New York N.Y. January 3 1863. 4 pp. 24 x 32 1/2 in. An early report of the Emancipation Proclamation where the editors describe Lincoln's bold move as ""a farce coming in after a long tragedy.Most of the people regard it as a very foolish piece of business."" Historical BackgroundThe Emancipation Proclamation was the single most important act of Lincoln's presidency. Its text reveals the major themes of the Civil War: the importance of slavery to the war effort on both sides; the courting of border states; Lincoln's hopes that the rebellious states could somehow be convinced to reenter the Union; the role of black soldiers; Constitutional and popular constraints on emancipation; the place of African Americans in the United States and America's place in a worldwide movement toward the abolition of slavery. In sounding the death knell for slavery and the ""Slave power"" the President took a decisive stand on the most contentious issue in American history and the United States joined other western nations in embracing a future of free labor.In addition to the moral impact of this ""sincerely believed.act of justice"" the Proclamation aided the Union cause tangibly and decisively. Because it focused on territory still held by the Confederacy only small numbers of slaves compared to the total slave population were immediately freed. However the Proclamation deprived the South of essential labor by giving all slaves a reason to escape to Union lines. Failing that it freed slaves immediately upon the Union Army's occupation of Confederate territory. The Proclamation also encouraged the enlistment of black soldiers who made a crucial contribution to the Union war effort. Moreover England and France who had already abolished slavery were restrained from supporting the Confederacy which would have been in their own economic interests. Lincoln summed up the Proclamation's importance in 1864: ""no human power can subdue this rebellion without using the Emancipation lever as I have done.""Nonetheless the editors of the Journal of Commerce disagreed and their opinion reflects the truly controversial nature of the act for many contemporary Americans. books

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. GETTYSBURG ADDRESS
The Gettysburg Address with Full Centerfold Illustrations of the Battlefield and Lincoln's Dedication Ceremony
<p>"<i>and that Government of the people for the people and for all people shall not perish from earth.</i>"</p><p>As printing technology advanced through the middle decades of the nineteenth century illustrated newspapers grew in popularity even though their engravings added a few weeks to press time. <i>Leslie's</i>printing—from December 5—includes an article containing the full text of Lincoln's timeless speech page 11. Illustrations include a centerfold spread with the formal dedication ceremony prominently placed and smaller views of Union and rebel graves defensive works Meade's headquarters and a view of the town centerfold. A large illustration of "<i>The War in Tennessee—Lookout Mountain and Its Vicinity</i>" appears on the front page.</p><p>There is no definitive text that captures exactly how Lincoln spoke that day though the AP reporter's text is most familiar. <i>Leslie's</i> printing following the <i>Philadelphia Enquirer</i>version contains variations most notably in the final two sentences regarding the nation's unfinished work and closing phrase of "<i>Government of the people for the people and for all people</i>" rather than "<i>of the people by the people and for the people.</i>"</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. GETTYSBURG ADDRESS.</b>Newspaper <i>Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper</i> New York December 5 1863. 16 pp. complete.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Excerpt:</b></p><p>"<i>Fourscore and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this Continent a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now we are engaged in a great civil war testing the question whether this nation or any nation so conceived so dedicated can long endure. We are met on the great battle-field of that war. We are met to dedicate it on a portion of the field set apart as the final resting place of those who gave their lives for the nation's life; but the nation must live and it is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. In a larger sense we cannot dedicate we cannot consecrate we cannot hallow this ground in reality. The number of men living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor attempts to add to its consecration. The world will little know and nothing remember of what we see here but we cannot forget what these brave men did here. We own this offering to our dead. We imbibe increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion; we here might resolve that they shall not have died in vain; that the nation shall under God have a new birth of freedom and that Government of the people for the people and for all people shall not perish from earth.</i>"</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>Though November 20th imprints are the most valuable newspaper publications of the Gettysburg Address none are as lavish as this issue of <i>Leslie's</i> and none show the cemetery or provide images of the ceremony. It is also interesting to note that the leading illustrated newspaper <i>Harper's Weekly</i> did not publish the Address or illustrate the ceremony. This <i>Leslie's</i> issue published in far smaller quantities than <i>Harper's</i> is quite scarce.</p><p><i>Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper</i> was founded in 1852 and published until 1922. Originally established by <i>Illustrated London News</i>owner Frank Leslie 1821-1880 the weekly continued under the guidance of his widow suffragette Miriam Florence Leslie from 1880 until 1902 when she sold the highly recognizable brand. Specializing in patriotic topics and heavily reporting war efforts from the Civil War to World War I the newspaper also covered Arctic exploration the Klondike Gold Rush strikes and sporting events. Civil War reporting and illustration was among the paper's most successful ventures.</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>Lincoln's speech delivered at Gettysburg National Cemetery on November 19 1863 has endured as a supreme distillation of American values. Over the past 150 years it has become a compelling testament to the sacrifices required to achieve freedom for all Americans. Lincoln made his speech at the cemetery's dedication some four months after the bloody and pivotal battle that turned the tide of the Civil War in favor of the Union. Edward Everett the most famous orator of his day spoke first and his address took some ninety minutes to deliver. He evoked the ancient Greeks who save their society by defeating the Persians at Marathon drew upon Wellington's victory over Napoleon at Waterloo and then moved to a history of the Battle of Gettysburg—America's decisive victory in the struggle to save the nation. Though a masterpiece of period it has been largely forgotten.</p><p>Lincoln's speech delivered in only a few minutes has persisted despite his assertion that "the world will little note nor long remember what we say here." Much has been written about Lincoln's famous speech from whether he read it or memorized it to when and where he wrote it. Many Americans believe Lincoln wrote the speech on the back of an envelope while riding the train to Gettysburg. This charming piece of fiction originated in Mary Shipman Andrews's 1906 book <i>The Perfect Tribute</i>. The real Address's writing is more complex. When Secretary of State William Seward gave a prepared speech on the evening of November 18 he gave a copy to the Associated Press. Reporters then repeatedly harassed John Hay one of Lincoln's personal secretaries for a copy of the President's speech. Hay demurred having neither the text nor any idea when it would be available. Based on the paper Lincoln used for his two drafts one page of Executive Mansion stationery and a page of lined paper then 2 identical pages of lined paper historian Gabor Boritt has concluded that the "likelihood remains that having written the first part of his speech in Washington Lincoln finished his First Draft in the evening in Gettysburg and then hurriedly wrote his Second Draft the next morning" Boritt 273. The text of the second draft is closest to the words recorded by reporters at the scene and is generally considered to be Lincoln's reading copy.</p><p>Newspaper copies and reports are another story one complicated by the fact that most witnesses to the dedication ceremony and speech outlived Lincoln by decades. But the words he spoke at Gettysburg only gained traction as his seminal contribution in the 1880s. As both the Lincoln legend and the speech's significance grew following the Civil War Reconstruction the Centennial and the rise of Jim Crow many more people than could have been possibly involved in the event have staked their claims to a Gettysburg Address connection.</p><p>With the advent of the telegraph news reporting had become big business and Lincoln surrounded himself with the press corps. Roy Basler editor of the <i>Collected Works of Abraham Lincoln</i> noted four reporters making shorthand notes of the speech: Associated Press and <i>New York Herald</i> reporter Joseph Gilbert <i>Boston Daily Advertiser</i> reporter Charles Hale and reporters from the <i>Chicago Tribune</i> and <i>Philadelphia Enquirer</i>. Gabor Boritt author of the definitive <i>The Gettysburg Gospel</i> adds John Hay one of Lincoln's personal secretaries to the list and refers to at least 23 additional reporters on the scene including many of Lincoln's allies in the Republican press. Known as "Lincoln's dog" <i>Philadelphia Press</i>owner John Forney offered a drunken pro-Lincoln rant on the evening before the speech but he was sober enough to wait for a slew of correspondents to arrive to take down his words.</p><p>What has come down as the standard version of the Address was compiled from Lincoln's drafts reports of what he spoke at the time and later revisions made by Lincoln himself. What is certain however is that "variations of the AP version reached more Americans in 1863 than any other" Boritt 239. The <i>New York Herald</i> received the text by telegraph and published it the next day. Later when Lincoln penned copies of his speech he is said to have referenced the AP report. A longtime story credits Joseph I. Gilbertof the Associated Press as having had "actually consulted Lincoln's delivery text briefly after the ceremony." This noted Garry Wills in 1992 "makes his version more authoritative for some scholars." Wills correctly credits the AP text as authoritative and in terms of cultural significance no other version had the reach of the AP's wording. The AP version and its slight variants usually comma placement and capitalization are easily identifiable because of the phrase "dedicated here to the refinished work…" rather than the correct "unfinished work."</p><p>However Gilbert's claim to be the reporter who delivered the AP's text does not withstand scrutiny. Gilbert did work for the AP at the time of the speech but he only made his assertion in 1914. In the ensuing fifty-four years the event's stature had grown to near-Biblical proportions. Gilbert recalled being so taken with Lincoln's words that he stopped recording the speech in shorthand. He claimed the President fortuitously allowed him to look at the manuscript copy and Gilbert insisted that "the press report was made from the copy no transcription from shorthand notes was necessary Boritt 371. However the AP version missed the word "poor" which other reporters caught and was present in the second draft; it also contained the phrase "under God" which was absent from the draft and notes five interruptions for applause followed by sustained applause at the speech's conclusion. When asked in 1917 Gilbert denied hearing any applause at all. These and other critical elements of the AP text cast serious doubt on Gilbert's claims.</p><p>Gabor Boritt writes that <i>Boston Daily Advertiser</i> reporter Charles Hale's eyewitness handwritten version should be preferred since it relied only on what Lincoln said; although one could counter-argue that he may not have captured Lincoln's words exactly. Both Boritt and Wills agree that while many other reporters' transcripts are generally inferior they nevertheless captured the word "poor" that both the AP and Hale missed. Interestingly when Hale's paper the <i>Boston Daily Advertiser</i> first published the Address on November 20 the paper incorrectly printed "The world will note nor long remember what we say here but it can never forbid what they did here" omitting the word "little" before "note" and changing "forget" to "forbid" —an odd discontinuity for a claim to the authoritative text though the reporter lamented that the speech had "suffered somewhat at the hands of telegraphers."</p><p>Versions printed on November 20 1863 are the Address's first appearance anywhere and are highly desirable as are other early printings. The <i>Washington Daily Chronicle</i> also owned by John Forney published Edward Everett's speech in its entirety but failed to include Lincoln's words in their November 20 edition so the paper published a 16-page pamphlet entitled "The Gettysburg Solemnities" dated November 22. It contained a number of the day's speeches and was the first time Lincoln's speech was printed separately. There are only three known copies a fourth disappeared from a library the last one on the market having sold at auction and then resold privately for approximately $650000. The first publication in book form printed by Baker and Godwin of New York was entitled <i>An Oration Delivered on The Battlefield of Gettysburg November 19 1863 at the Consecration of the Cemetery Prepared for the Interment of the Remains of Those Who Fell in the Battles of July 1st 2d and 3d 1863</i> also appeared within the week.

<p>"<i>The brave men living and dead who struggled here have consecrated it far above our poor power to add or detract…</i>"</p><p>Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is on page 2 along with Edward Everett's entire speech and a report on the ceremonies. Printed in an important newspaper owned by John Forney this version is in some ways more accurate than the more widely spread Associated Press report.</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. GETTYSBURG ADDRESS.</b>Newspaper <i>Philadelphia Press</i> Philadelphia November 20 1863. Complete 4 pp. approx. 20¼ x 28 in.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>John Wien Forney</b> 1817-1881 had been a Democrat whose support for President James Buchanan brought appointment as clerk of the House of Representatives and lucrative printing contracts. However after Forney lost his election bid for the U.S. Senate he started the anti-Buchanan Philadelphia <i>Press</i> and switched to the Republican Party in 1860 becoming a key Lincoln supporter. Forney again served as House clerk and then secretary of the Senate until 1868. In that position he was one of only four men to sign the official 13th Amendment Resolution: President Lincoln Vice President Hamlin Speaker of the House Schuyler Colfax and Forney writing "I certify that this Resolution originated in the Senate." At the same time he maintained his editorial "Letter from Occasional" column in the <i>Press</i> and established the Washington <i>Chronicle</i> aimed at the public and to soldiers in the Army of the Potomac. He interviewed the President on issues such as freedom of the press and the probable effects of the Emancipation Proclamation and was invited to consult about cabinet appointments. His White House access caused opponents to call him "Lincoln's dog."</p><p>The night before the Gettysburg Cemetery Forney got "roaring drunk and gave a violently pro-Lincoln speech" Boritt. Given that history he probably should not have been chosen to chaperone newly-elected vice president Andrew Johnson at the March 4 1865 inauguration; Johnson was widely criticized for his drunken performance there. After Lincoln's assassination and Johnson's veto of the Freedman's Bureau Act in 1868 Forney changed positions and campaigned for impeachment. Selling the <i>Chronicle</i> and returning to Philadelphia the chameleon-like editor switched back to the Democrats and started a weekly magazine <i>The Progress</i>. In addition he served as a director of the Texas & Pacific Railway.</p><p><b>Partial Transcript:</b></p><p>"<i>Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HENRY CHARLES LEA
Union League of Philadelphia Supports Lincoln on Emancipation African-American Troops in 1864
<p>"<i>The will of the people is supreme.</i>"</p><p>"<i>The vital principle of</i> Lincoln's <i>whole administration has been his recognition of the fact that our Government is simply a machine for carrying into effect THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.</i>"</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HENRY CHARLES LEA.</b>Printed Pamphlet. <i>No. 18: The Will of the People</i> January – April 1864. 8 pp. 5½ x 8½ in.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Excerpts:</b></p><p>"<i>It has been generally assumed that the acts of the President have been the exponents of his own individual convictions. Democrats have censured him for converting the 'war against disunion' into a 'war against slavery.' Radical Republicans have been equally prone to condemn him as a half-hearted Abolitionist who required perpetual stimulation to perform his duty and who is not to be trusted because he did not immediately on his inauguration carry out the views which he had previously expressed of opposition to slavery.</i></p><p>"<i>Both parties seem to have forgotten that our form of government is as purely democratic as can be reduced to a practical system. Our whole political machinery is devised for the purpose of allowing the people to regulate the national policy. The will of the people is supreme.</i>" p3</p><p>"<i>For twenty years prior to his election he had on all fitting occasions expressed his disapprobation of slavery and his desire that it could be constitutionally done away with. Yet in the popular vote which made him President he saw the expression simply of a determination to resist the aggressions of slavery and not the condemnation of the system itself.</i>" p4</p><p>"<i>As the nation changed its views so he was ready to change his policy. When therefore the Emancipation Proclamation made its appearance the people was prepared to welcome that which a year earlier would have aroused a tempest of disapprobation.</i>" p5</p><p>"<i>The next step was the arming of negro troops. In July 1862 Congress authorized the employment of 'persons of African descent' in our armies. The public mind was not yet prepared to accept the assistance of the despised race. The administration accordingly did not press the matter.</i>" p5-6</p><p>"<i>Those who have witnessed the marvellous revolution in public opinion on this subject cannot but admire the manner in which Mr. Lincoln's honest deference to public opinion has produced results which the tact of the cunning statesman might have failed to secure. Taking each step as the voice of the people demanded it he has never been forced to retrace his position. Supported by and supporting the popular feeling he has moved onward in unison with it and each new development has afforded sure foothold for further progress.</i>" p6</p><p>"<i>His Proclamation of Amnesty puts into practical shape the wishes which have long been silently forming themselves in every loyal heart. Again has he divined the will of the people and at the fitting time his acts have responded making as far as his competence extends that will the law of the land. To this intuitive perception of public opinion and this skill in translating it into action Mr. Lincoln owes much of the success of his administration. He is at once the leader and the led.</i>" p7</p><p>"<i>The transitory passions of the multitude are very different from the slowly formed convictions of the people. The President has known to distinguish between them and he has at times shown as lofty a firmness to resist the former as he has ever manifested alacrity to respect the latter. The vital principle of his whole administration has been his recognition of the fact that our Government is simply a machine for carrying into effect THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE.</i>" p8</p><p><b>Excerpts from Resolutions Passed January 11 1864:</b></p><p>"<i>And Whereas The Union League of Philadelphia composed as it is of those who having formerly belonged to various parties in this juncture recognize no party but their country; and representing as it does all the industrial mechanical manufacturing commercial financial and professional interests of the city is especially qualified to give in this behalf an unbiased authentic utterance to the public sentiment. Therefore</i>" p2</p><p>"<i>Resolved That we cordially approve of the policy which Mr. Lincoln has adopted and pursued as well as the principles he has announced as the acts he has performed: and that we shall continue to give an earnest and energetic support to the doctrines and measures by which his administration has thus far been directed and illustrated.</i>" p2</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>Loyal Leagues also often known as Union Leagues were men's clubs established during the Civil War largely to support the war effort and the policies of the Lincoln administration. They usually consisted of the professional merchant and artisan classes in northern cities. The first such club formed in Philadelphia in 1862.</p><p>This pamphlet written by Henry C. Lea as director of the Union League of Philadelphia's Board of Publication insisted that Lincoln's policies reflected the will of the people. Six years earlier in his first debate with Stephen A. Douglas in August 1858 Lincoln famously said "In this and like communities public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment nothing can fail; without it nothing can succeed. Consequently he who moulds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes or pronounces decisions. He makes statutes and decisions possible or impossible to be executed."</p><p>On April 15 1864 Lea met with Lincoln in Washington and three days later he wrote to Lincoln including two pamphlets he had recently written including this one. He informed Lincoln "I was much gratified to find from your remarks that in one of them—'The Will of the People'—I had to some extent indirectly appreciated the motives which have guided your policy. It appeared to me to present a line of argument likely to be effective before the people & I confess to surprise that it should not have been long since brought more prominently into notice to repel the attacks of radicals & Copperheads." <br /></p><p><b>Henry Charles Lea</b> 1825-1909 was born in Philadelphia and received a classical education from Irish American tutor Eugenius Nulty. Lea showed particular promise in natural history. He joined his father in the publishing business in 1843 but had a nervous breakdown in 1847. While recuperating he read medieval French history and decided to become a historian rather than a scientist. In 1850 he married his first cousin Anna Caroline Jaudon 1824-1912 who was of French Huguenot descent and they had four children between 1851 and 1859.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HENRY CHARLES LEA
Union League of Philadelphia Supports Re-Election of Lincoln as “the man for the timeâ€
<p>"<i>As a MAN OF THE PEOPLE understanding them and trusted by them he has proved himself the man for the time.</i>"</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HENRY CHARLES LEA.</b>Printed Pamphlet. <i>No. 17: Abraham Lincoln</i> March 1864. 12 pp. 5¾ x 8¾ in.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Excerpts:</b></p><p>"<i>What will be the place assigned by history to Abraham Lincoln</i>" p3</p><p>"<i>Few of us can forget the feelings of doubt and distrust with which we regarded his advent to the Presidential chair. That his native energy had elevated him from a youth of poverty and labor was reassuring and yet the narrow sphere in which his life had mostly been passed seemed to deprive him of the opportunities of familiarity with the great principles and details of statesmanship requisite for the perilous contingencies of the future.</i>" p3-4</p><p>"<i>Thus with doubt confusion and demoralization around him with no landmarks in the past to serve as a guide for the present or as a precedent for the future did Mr. Lincoln undertake the awful responsibilities of his high position. Thus relying on himself and on the people he boldly set to work to restore the Republic.</i>" p5</p><p>"<i>The country was saved so soon as the people recognized in their President a man who believed that he could save it and who honestly intended to do so. Had Abraham Lincoln done no more than this he would have merited a place between Washington and Jackson. It is a great thing to lift a nation to the highest level of its duties and responsibilities and few men to whom in the world's history the opportunity has been vouchsafed have accomplished the task so thoroughly.</i>" p6</p><p>"<i>And now the momentous question arises before the American people—to whose hands shall be confided the delicate trust of restoring the Union of our fathers</i>" p7</p><p>"<i>The great duty to which Mr. Lincoln has dedicated himself with rare singleness of purpose is the one thought which engrosses every true American heart—the re-establishment of the Union on a permanent basis.</i>" p7</p><p>"<i>The results of the war during the last twelve-month have not shown that the Proclamation was a mistake in military policy.</i>" p9</p><p>"<i>When Mr. Lincoln recommended the plan of compensated emancipation which was adopted by Congress he showed that he recognized fully how great an element of future strife lay in the institution of slavery and how beneficial to the whole country its abolition would be. Moderate in all his opinions he wanted a gradual not a violent change and long after his Emancipation Proclamation was issued he provoked the wrath of the radical emancipationists in Missouri by lending what aid he constitutionally could to the 'conservatives' in that State who desired that the extinction of slavery should be brought about gradually. Possibly in this Mr. Lincoln was mistaken yet if so the error arose from the desire which he has constantly manifested to harmonize the conflicting interests of the country even at the expense of temporary popularity.</i>" p9-10</p><p>"<i>The wisest statesman does not disdain to profit by experience nor can the head of a popular government adopt measures of fundamental change before the people are ripe for them. It is probable that Mr. Lincoln learned much as the war wore on; at all events the people did.</i>" p10</p><p>"<i>There are many who have richly earned the gratitude of the people for eminent services rendered to the Republic in the hour of her trials. There is no one who has so signally centered upon himself the confidence of all. There have been mistakes of detail in military naval and financial matters—mistakes inseparable from the sudden transition from profound and prolonged peace to civil war upon the largest scale. Yet in the general policy of the administration in its principles of statesmanship there have been few errors save those arising from a too generous disbelief in the sincerity of Southern madness.</i>" p11</p><p>"<i>Had Mr. Lincoln moved faster than he has done he would have left the people behind him and lost the support without which no popular government can conduct an exhausting war.</i>" p11</p><p>"<i>As a MAN OF THE PEOPLE understanding them and trusted by them he has proved himself the man for the time.</i>" p12</p><p>"<i>no one can be named who unites like Abraham Lincoln the kindliness and firmness the skill and experience the native sagacity and honesty to bring about an harmonious settlement and to extort from repentant rebels the implicit confidence which those high qualities have won from all loyal men.</i>" p12</p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>The Union League Club of Philadelphia formed in 1862 as a patriotic society to support the Union and the policies of the Lincoln administration. The members of this private club represented the Philadelphia region's elite in business education and religion.</p><p>On April 15 1864 Lea met with Lincoln in Washington and three days later he wrote to Lincoln including two pamphlets he had recently written for the Union League Club including this one. He informed Lincoln "To prevent misconstruction perhaps I should add that I am a man of independent position with nothing to ask at your hands except the preservation of our institutions."<br /></p><p><b>Henry Charles Lea</b> 1825-1909 was born in Philadelphia and received a classical education from a private tutor. He showed particular promise in natural history. He joined his father in the publishing business in 1843 but had a nervous breakdown in 1847. While recuperating he read medieval French history and decided to become a historian rather than a scientist. Over the next fifty years Lea produced ten books and numerous articles on medieval institutional legal and ecclesiastical history. During the Civil War Lea was a member of the Union League of Philadelphia and led its Board of Publication. In that role he wrote many of the League's published pamphlets including this one. From 1863 to 1865 he served as a Bounty Commissioner and aided the provost marshal in recruiting soldiers including African Americans.</p> books

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HENRY W. BELLOWS
Lincoln Calls for the public to supports the U.S. Sanitary Commission
<p>"<i>The Sanitary Commission is … of direct practical value to the nation in this time of its trial. It is entitled to the gratitude and confidence of the people… There is no agency through which voluntary offerings of patriotism can be more effectively made. A. Lincoln.</i>"</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. HENRY W. BELLOWS.</b>Printed Circular Letter to "<i>the Loyal Women of America</i>." Washington D.C. October 1 1861. 3 pp. 8 x 10 in.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>The United States Sanitary Commission USSC was a private relief agency to support sick and wounded Union soldiers and sailors. The idea began at a meeting of the Women's Central Relief Association of New York in April 1861 and was modeled on the British Sanitary Commission which operated during the Crimean War. The USSC set up and staffed hospitals and operated thirty soldiers' homes lodges and rest houses for traveling and disabled Union soldiers.</p><p>This circular urges American women to send contributions to the USSC for distribution to suffering servicemen. "<i>Every woman in the country can at the least knit a pair of woolen stockings</i>" the letter declared "<i>or if not can purchase them.</i>" The USSC sought blankets quilts pillows slippers delicacies such as cocoa and dried fruit checker and backgammon boards and books and magazines for convalescing soldiers and sailors. Before it was printed Frederick Law Olmsted wrote to Lincoln requesting "a line from the President recommending the purpose of the Commission to the confidence of the public." Lincoln's response sent the same day is included at the end.</p><p>7000 affiliated local societies held bazaars concerts raffles and plays to raise money. Beginning in the fall of 1863 major cities—including Chicago Cincinnati Brooklyn New York Pittsburgh Philadelphia St. Louis and Boston—held large sanitary fairs that lasted for weeks. With donations from many famous figures and artifacts for sale such as signed copies of the Emancipation Proclamation over the course of the war the USSC raised an estimated $5 million in cash and $15 million in in-kind contributions.</p><p>At first the Army Medical Bureau resented civilian involvement and questioned the use of women as nurses. Similar groups such as the Christian Commission argued that their counterparts were more interested in providing something for the upper classes to do in the war aside from fighting than they were in sympathizing with the plight of soldiers. But its success silenced most critics over time.</p><p>The USSC did provide significant opportunities for women to participate in the war effort. Dorothea Dix Mary Livermore and Mary Ann Bickerdyke held leadership roles. Novelist Louisa May Alcott was a nurse in a USSC hospital. One of its nurses Clara Barton became a founder of the American Red Cross. Many of the Northern women who were its grass roots workers developed an involvement in philanthropic and public affairs including the Civil Rights and Women's Suffrage movements.</p><p><b>Henry W. Bellows</b> 1814-1882 born in Boston graduated from Harvard College in 1832 and Harvard Divinity School in 1837. In 1839 he became the pastor of the First Congregational church in New York City. Gaining a reputation as a pulpit and lyceum speaker he became a leader of the Unitarian Church in America. From 1847 to 1866 Bellows edited the <i>Christian Inquirer</i> a weekly Unitarian newspaper. Bellows planned the United States Sanitary Commission and served as its only president from 1861 to 1878. In 1877 he became the first president of the first Civil Service Reform Association.</p> books

ABRAHAM LINCOLN. RACISM
Miscegenation or the Millennium of Abolitionism - Stirring Fear of Interracial Marriage Before 1864 Presidential Election
<p>The second in a series of four racist political cartoons published in 1864 by Bromley & Company which was closely affiliated with the Copperhead New York <i>World</i> newspaper. These prints sought to undermine Abraham Lincoln's chances for reelection by branding him as a "miscegenationist" and playing on white fears of "race-mixing." The cartoon scene pictures several interracial couples enjoying a day at the park eating ice cream discussing wedding plans and a woman's upcoming lecture. Two African American families have white employees a carriage driver and footmen and a babysitter.</p><p>The only other example traced at auction brought $7800 in 2010.</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN. RACISM.</b>Print. "Miscegenation or the Millennium of Abolitionism." Political Cartoon. New York: Bromley & Co. 1864. 1 p. 20¾ x 13â… in.<p><br /></p><p>American politics had long played on fears of sexual relationships between races. A powerful new word for "race-mixing" was coined in an anonymous December 1863 pamphlet entitled <i>Miscegenation: The Theory of the Blending of the Races Applied to the American White Man and Negro</i> published in New York. Purporting to advocate the virtues of the "blending of the white and black races on this continent" it was a literary forgery prepared by <i>The World</i> managing editor David Goodman Croly and reporter George Wakeman. The authors were unsuccessful in their attempt to trick President Lincoln into endorsing the work.</p><p>At the far left of the image Abraham Lincoln declares "<i>I shall be proud to number among my intimate friends any member of the Squash family especially the little Squashes.</i>" The African American woman to whom he is speaking replies "<i>I'se 'quainted wid Missus Linkum I is washed far her 'fore de hebenly Miscegenation times was cum. Dont do nuffin now but gallevant 'round wid de white gem'men! he-ah! he-ah! he-ah!</i>"</p><p>Senator Charles Sumner says "<i>Mr. President! Allow me the honor of introducing my very dear friend Miss Dinah Arabella Aramintha Squash.</i>" A white carriage driver complains in the background "<i>Gla-a-ang there 240t! White driver white footmen niggers inside my heys! I wanted a situation when I took this one</i>" while a black man in the carriage tells his companion "<i>Phillis de_ah dars Sumner. We must not cut him if he is walking.</i>" A black woman at a table tells a white man with her "<i>Ah! Horace its-its-its-bully 'specially de cream</i>" and he replies "<i>Ah! my dear Miss Snowball we have at last reached our political and social Paradise. Isn't it extatic</i>"</p><p>To the right are two couples embracing each a white woman and an African American man. The first white women tells her partner "<i>Oh! You dear creature. I am so agitated! Go and ask Pa</i>" to which he replies "<i>Lubly Julia Anna name de day when Brodder Beecher shall make us one!</i>" The second white woman says "<i>Adolphus now you'll be sure to come to my lecture to morrow night won't you</i>" to which he answers "<i>I'll be there Honey on de front seat sure!</i>" In the background are various immigrant minorities viewing the scene. One exclaims "<i>Most hextwadinary! Aw neva witnessed the like in all me life if I did dem me!</i>" and another adds "<i>Mine Got vat a guntry vat a beebles!</i>" An Irish girl complains "<i>And is it to drag nagur babies that I left old Ireland Bad luck to me.</i>"</p><p>Manton Marble the editor of <i>The World</i> collaborated with printmaker Bromley & Company to issue a series of four anti-Lincoln "Political Caricatures." The present example was the No. 2 in that series. No. 1 was "The Grave of the Union or Major Jack Downing's Dream"; No. 3 "The Abolition Catastrophe Or the November Smash-up"; and No. 4 "The Miscegenation Ball."</p><p>Republicans responded by trying to turn the "miscegenation" charge against the Democrats. A Republican print "The Political "Siamese" Twins: The Offspring of Chicago Miscegenation" pictures McClellan and Pendleton joined together despite their very different ideas on ending the war.</p><p>Although Abraham Lincoln won New York states' electoral votes in 1860 Stephen Douglas had carried New York City and its environs. Financial elites fearing that civil war would ruin business and recent immigrants fearing competition with free black labor supported Douglas. Lincoln's unpopularity in New York City during the Civil War was a factor in the deadly 1863 Draft Riots.</p><p>In 1864 Lincoln again won the states' electoral votes while New York City favored his Democratic opponent McClellan. In fact Lincoln's majority dropped from 50136 votes in 1860 to only 7373 votes in 1864 with approximately 50000 more total votes cast than in 1860.</p><p>Bromley and Company continued to sell the caricatures after the election as this January 1865 advertisement from an Ohio newspaper makes clear. Another advertisement assured purchasers that the set of four prints available for $1 were "sent on wooden rollers to insure safe carriage."</p><p><b><i>The World</i></b> 1860-1931 a daily independent newspaper was published in New York City. Alexander Cummings founded it as a religious Republican outlet in 1860. August Belmont and others purchased it in 1862 changing the editorial focus. With editor Manton Marble 1834-1917 <i>The World</i> soon became the country's leading Democratic newspaper. In 1864 Union authorities shut down <i>The World</i>and another paper for three days after they published forged documents purportedly written by Lincoln that were really part of a hoax to manipulate the price of gold. The paper actively supported George B. McClellan against Lincoln in 1864.</p><p><b>Condition</b></p><p>Fine for exhibit despite flaws. Cropped with loss of "Political Caricature No. 2" from top edge and part of printed pricing information from bottom edge publisher's name rubbed out from the copyright statement lacking ½" from lower left corners a few short tape repairs by the edges a 2" closed tear through the second dialogue bubble along the top edge and a 3" closed tear parallel to the right edge.
