Lincoln's War Message.
The presidents message was con.
aned almost exclusively to a review OF
the events leading up to the crisis and
to an argument against the right OF
any state 10 60 out Of the Union with.
out the consent Of the other states.
Following his lead. the congress de-
voted itself to the one subject OF the
war. voting bonds and revenues. vail.
dating the presidents past acts. and en-.
larging his powers to meet the extraor.
binary situation In future. and general.
~ providing ways and means to con.
duct the stSuggie. and defining the M.
tons attitude In regard thereto.
No graver problems have faced any
congress In the nations history. The
members met not only In the midst Of
perils to the country. but Of personal
danger to themselves Washington
vas menaced BY a hostile army only
few miles distant and was threat
ened with the blowing up Of the capt.
tol and the ASA ssination Of the chief
officials. Finances were at q low ebb.
aud industry and commerce were seri.
ously crippled. To add to the trou.
bles at home there was a possibility
II danger from abroad. Several Of the
great nations had already recognized
the south's rights 40 a belligerent. and
the possibility Of foreign intervention
hung like a shadow over Washington.
There was no faltering In the face Of
these real or threatened perils. A half
billion dollars were promptly voted
and means provided to borrow this
amount or raise II from the revenues.
Congress seemingly was actuated BY
the spirit animating the closing para.
