186230007.01<p>On the front page under <i>"News from the North" </i>is the text of Abraham Lincoln's reply to <i>New York Tribune</i>editor Horace Greeley. Greeley's letter urging Lincoln to emancipate all slaves in Union-held territory was known as "The Prayer of Twenty Millions." It was first published on August 20 1862. Lincoln responded on August 22 declaring that his paramount goal is to save the Union regardless of its effect on slavery as well as his personal views that all men should be free.</p> <b>ABRAHAM LINCOLN.</b>Newspaper. <i>Richmond Whig</i> Richmond Va. August 30 1862. 2 pp. 17 x 24 in.<p><b><br /></b></p><p><b>Excerpt:</b></p><p><i>"…As to the policy I 'seem to be pursuing' as you say I have not meant to leave any one in doubt. </i></p><p><i> I would save the Union. I would save it the shortest way under the Constitution. The sooner the national authority can be restored the nearer the Union will be 'the Union as it was.' If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time </i>save<i> slavery I do not agree with them. If there be those who would not save the Union unless they could at the same time </i>destroy<i> slavery I do not agree with them—My paramount object in this struggle </i>is <i>to save the Union and is </i>not<i> either to save or to destroy slavery. If I could save the Union without freeing </i>any<i> slave I would do it and if I could save it by freeing </i>all<i>the slaves I would do it; and if I could save it by freeing some and leaving others alone I would also do that.—What I do about slavery and the colored race I do because I believe it helps to save this Union and what I forbear I forbear because I do not believe it would help to save the Union. I shall do </i>less<i> whenever I shall believe what I am doing hurts the cause and I shall do </i>more<i>whenever I shall believe doing more will help the cause. I shall try to correct errors when shown to be errors; and I shall adopt new views so fast as they shall appear to be true views. </i></p><p><i> I have here stated my purpose according to my view of </i>official<i> duty; and I intend no modification of my oft-expressed </i>personal<i> wish that all men every where could be free." </i></p><p><b>Historical Background</b></p><p>Though this letter is often as proof that Lincoln did not intend to abolish slavery unknown to Greeley and most Americans Lincoln had already drafted the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation and was only waiting for a Union military victory to deliver it. Moreover Lincoln makes a "divide and conquer" rhetorical move: he splits the issue by stating that his constitutional duty as president is to keep the Union together while simultaneously expressing his personal view of universal freedom at the end.</p><p>Additional content in this issue includes a front page editorial <i>"European Recognition" "The Indian Atrocities in Minnesota" "Yankee Finances" "An Order From Gen. Burnside" "The Peninsular Campaign—Gen. </i><b><i>J. Bankhead </i></b><i>Magruder's Official Report"</i> which takes over two columns with considerable detail.<br /><br />The back page has additional content with: <i>"A Brilliant Cavalry Exploit" "The Impressment of Slaves In Georgia" "Outrages in Arkansas" "From Kentucky"</i> and more. Additionally there are various reports from the <i>"Confederate Congress"</i> and numerous advertisements including a <i>"$100 Reward"</i> for a runaway slave.</p><p>The <i>Richmond Whig</i> is one of the less common—but still important—newspapers from the capital of the Confederacy.</p><p>In <i>Four Years in Rebel Capitals: An Inside View of Life in the Southern Confederacy from Birth to Death</i> journalist T. C. DeLeon wrote that the <i>Richmond</i> <i>Whig</i>was among the South's best wartime newspapers. Their pages "recorded the real and true history of public opinion during the war. In their columns is to be found the only really correct and indicative 'map of busy life its fluctuations and its vast concerns' in the South during her days of darkness and of trial."</p><p>One of the more interesting episodes in the history of the <i>Whig</i> is its alleged involvement in a terror plot against New York City during the Civil War. The <i>Whig</i>was reputed to have worked with the Confederate government to use advertisements and editorials to convey secret messages to Southern sympathizers in the North. In October 1864 the <i>Whig</i> was alleged to have run an editorial that signaled Southern supporters to embark on a terror campaign that called for widespread fires to be set in New York city and federal offices to be taken over and the capture of the city's military commander Maj. Gen. John Adams Dix.</p><p><b>Condition</b></p><p>Good. Never bound several folds with minor wear at the folds.</p> books

186322448.01New 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.
