The worst evil that could befall our country is civil war, but the outrages in Kansas cannot be continued much longer without producing it.
Let us, my friends, unite in electing him President of the United States.
I would regard it as a public calamity to have the power of this House placed, directly or indirectly, under the control of this administration.
I have given my views, speaking for no other man, frankly and fearlessly, and I will stand by them now and in the future.
