Gen. Garfield's Remarks upon the Death
of Lincoln.
The official report in the Congressional
Record of Saturday, April 14, 1800, recites
that Mr. Garlleld, in the House of Repre
sentatives, after Chaplain Boynton, mov
ed to dispense with the reading of the
journal, concluded a speech upon the as- j
sassinatiou of Lincoln, as follows : "It is :
no one man who killed Abraham Lincoln ;
it was the embodied spirit of treason and j
slavery, inspired with fearful and despair-!
ing hate, that struck him down in the |
moment of the nation's supremest joy. Ah,
sir, there are times in the history of men
and nations where they stand so near the
veil that seperates mortals from immor
tals, time from eternity,and men from
their God, that they can almost hear the
beatings and feel the pulsations of the
heart of the infinite. Through such a
time has this nation passed. When 2.10,
000 brave spirits pass from - the Held of
honor that thin veil to the presence of
God, and when at last its parting folds
admitted the martyr President to the
company of the dead heroes of the Repub
lic, the nation stood so near the veil that!
the whispers of God were heard by the!
children of men. Awe stricken by His'
voice the American people knelt in tear
ful reverence and made a solemn cove
nant with Him and with each other that
this nation should be saved from its ene
mies, that all its glory should be restored
and on the ruins of slavery and treason
the temple of freedom and justice should
be built and should survive forever. It
remains for us, consecrated by that great
event, and under a covenant with God, to
keep that faith, to go forward in the
great work until it shall be completed.
Following the lead of that great man,and
obeying the high behests of God, let us
remember that
'He liatli Bounded forth a trumpet that shall never
call retreat;
lie is sifting out the hearts of men before His judg
ment seat.
Be swift my soul, to answer llim; be jubilant ray
feet,
For God is marching oil.' "
At the conclusion of this peroration the
House silently adjourned.
The following curious dispatches, nev
er before printed, were sent by Mr. Stan
ton to the Hon. Edwards Pierrepont abou
a month alter the assassination of Mr.
Lincoln. They are interesting as evi
dence of a very different phase of excite
ment in Washington at that time from
any which has been caused by the at
tempt on the life of President Garfield:
1.
WAR DEPT..May 12,1805,10.05 P.M.
The Hon. Edwards Pierrepont, New Yonw
I have written to-night to retain you
and Cutting and Brady, or any one else
you may desire to have associated with
you, to prosecute Horace Greeley and the
owners of the Tribune for Greeley's per
sistant efforts the last four weeks to in
cite assassins to finish their work by
murdering me. Please give the matter
your immediate attention on receiving
the letter, and secure copies of all the
Tribunes printed since tlie night of the
President's murder, and get the names of
the owners. I propose to prosecute
criminally and also by civil suit, for I
shall not allow them to have me murder
ed and escape responsibility without a
struggle for life on 1113' part.
EDWIN M. STANTON.
o
WAR DEPARTMENR, May 13—3.20 p. M.
To the Hon. Edwards Pierrepont and the
Hon. V. B. Cuttinj, New York:
I have proof of express personal mal
ice against me by Greeley, atitl believe
that I can establish a combination be
tween him and others which may end in
accomplishing my death, as it did against
Mr. Lincoln and Mr.Seward. This is my
reason for distinguishing his case from
others of general vituperation.
EDWIN M. STANTON.
The second telegram was sent in reply
to one which contained anj intimation
that it might be at least indiscreet to
make such an arrest as the one suggest
ed by Mr. Stanton.
