The Daily Dispatch: February 19, 1861., [Electronic resource], The oil discoveries in Western Virginia. (search)
pacity of the people to govern themselves that no future country would ever make the attempt till the crack of doom. The Inspired volume forbids us to speak "evil of dignities," and, therefore, after the 4th of March next, when Lincoln becomes one of the dignities we shall not call him a fool or an ass. His absurd utterances on the route to Washington certainly give color to the statement that his speeches in the Senatorial contest with Douglas were prepared for him by a Republican committee.--We should think that by this time his best friends must begin to suspect that he is not the man for the crisis. We should as soon think of putting out a fire in the dome of St. Peter's with a penny squirt as to expect such a man as Lincoln to overcome the portentous difficulties that now threaten this country.--By all means let his speeches from Springfield to Washington be published, and adorned in the frontispiece with an engraving of Dame Partington mopping out the Atlantic with her broom.
