Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lincoln-Douglas Debate American history, reveals human nature deal= ing with momentous problems, and illuminates the methods by which the great art of public speech is used to influence public conduct in a great epoch. Because Lincoln and Douglas, in the course of the debate, each made references to their past records, it is necessary to have in mind the brief sketch, here given, of the life history of each. And because the debate was on the questions of slavery, and referred so frequently to the history of that question, it is necessary to here give first a very brief review of at least those facts, in the history of slavery, to which the speakers refer. The speakers inferred that their hearers had fresh in memory the recent history of slavery agitation and legislation, and, accordingly, we here offer a narration of such facts as are necessary to understand the mean ing of the debate, before giving the debate it self. Therefore, this volume presents, first, a brief sketch of each debater, just sufficient to under stand the references in the debate; second, just enough of the history of the slavery question to comprehend the allusions of the speakers; third, the circumstances attending the debate along with the chief arguments and replies of each speaker; fourth, the major and important portions of the speeches of Lincoln and of Doug las are given in the exact words of the speaker.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lincoln and Douglas Debates: An Address Before the Chicago Historical Society, February 17, 1914 In the following year the Missouri question came up afresh and Senator Thomas of Illinois proposed, as a compromise, that Missouri Should be admitted to the Union with Slavery, but that in all the remaining territory north of 3o°3o' north latitude slavery should be forever prohibited. This amendment was adopted and the bill was passed. The Missouri Compromise was generally considered a victory for the South, but Thomas Jefferson considered it the death knell of the Union. He was still living, at the age of seventy-seven. He saw what this sectional rift portended, and he wrote to John Holmes, one of his correspondents, under date of April 22, 1820: This momentous question, like a fire bell in the night, awakened me and filled me with terror. I Considered it at once as the knell of the Union. It is hushed, indeed, for the moment. But this is a reprieve only, not a final sentence. A geographical line, coinciding with a marked principle, moral and political, once conceived and held up to the angry passions of men, will never be obliterated and every new irritation will mark it deeper and deeper.
