Mr.. President be more consistent "
Neither ought we to say that the South should have
moved the question Of emancipation sooner On thlS
subject we have not, rs think any right to speak
We have no right to reproach them with delay. They
have much right to require to enancpac our chill

We have seen an attempt made to make Of the
