EsncoEn and sfse Mexican war

\ story was started at Chicago, as soon
as Lincoln was nominated that he had
voted when in Congress against supplies
to the army in Mexico; and the story
was repeated at the Douglas meeting IN
New York, on the Tuesday following his
nomination. Our readers will be graIii-
cd to learn that there is no foundation
for the story whatever. Ii was stated
during the canvass between Lincoln and
Douglas in 1853, at time when it was
thought the ''little giant" was in danger,
and it was repeated BY Douglas himself
in lis debate with Lincoln at Ottawa, and
also at Charleston The Chicago Tri,
bune proved its falsity by extracts from
the Congressional G!oLe, showing that
after MIR Lincoln took his seat in Con
gress he voted for every bill that was Of
fered to raise supplies for the American
army lit Mexico. 1t was also denied by
Mr. Lincolp both at Ottawa and ut
Charleston. and at the latter place he
brought on the stand Hon. 0. B. Ficklin,
his Democratic colleague in Congress, aud
compelled him to give reluctant te,tjmo-
ny to the falsity Of the charge. See
Lincoln and Douglas Debates, page lJ8 !
1t was further proved that Mir Lincoln S
immediate predecessor in Congress. John
Henry, of Morgan county, then en- the
stump in behalf Of Mr. Douglas, and still
a rabid Pro-Slavery Democrat, did give
the votes falsely attributed to Mr.. Lin
coin.
The evidence on this point was SO clear
that the more decent Of the democratic
papers took back the charge and apollo
cized handsomely The Aatoon Gazette,
for instance, after making the charge,
thus neatly retracted
I'VE made the charges against him, in
relation to voting against supplies, upon
