The Address of Abraham Lincoln: In Indication of the Policy of the Framers of the Constitution and the Principles of the Republican Party (1865) is a historical speech delivered by the 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. This book contains the full transcript of the address, which was given on July 10, 1858, at the Illinois State Capitol in Springfield.In the speech, Lincoln discusses the principles of the Republican Party, which he helped to found, and how they relate to the Constitution of the United States. He argues that the framers of the Constitution intended for the government to be based on the principles of freedom and equality, and that the Republican Party is the true inheritor of these values.Lincoln also discusses the issue of slavery, which was a major point of contention in the lead-up to the Civil War. He argues that the institution of slavery is incompatible with the principles of the Constitution and that it must be abolished if the United States is to remain a truly free and democratic nation.Overall, The Address of Abraham Lincoln: In Indication of the Policy of the Framers of the Constitution and the Principles of the Republican Party (1865) is a powerful and important speech that sheds light on the political and social climate of the mid-19th century in America. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the United States and the legacy of Abraham Lincoln.Also Includes An Oration Commemorative Of President Abraham Lincoln, By Richard Storrs, Jr.; And Abraham Lincoln, An Horatian Ode, By Richard Henry Stoddard.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
