Picture and the following: From Frank Carpenter, Six Months at the White House:
"It had got to be," [Lincoln told Carpenter], "midsummer, 1862. Things had
gone from bad to worse, until I felt we had reached the end of our rope on the
plan of operations we had been pursuing; that we had about played our last
card, and must change our tactics, or lose the game! I now determined upon
the adoption of the emancipation policy; and, without consultation with, or the
knowledge of the Cabinet, I prepared the original draft of the proclamation,
and, after much anxious thought, called a Cabinet meeting upon the subject.
This was the last of July, or the first part of the month of August, 1862."
(The exact date he did not remember.) "This Cabinet meeting took place, I
think, upon a Saturday. All were present, excepting Mr. Blair, the
Postmaster-General, who was absent at the opening of the discussion, but
came in subsequently. I said to the Cabinet that I had resolved upon this
step, and had not called them together to ask their advice, but to lay the
subject-matter of a proclamation before them; suggestions as to which would
be in order, after they had heard it read. Mr. Lovejoy," said he, "was in error
when he informed you that it excited no comment, excepting on the part of
Secretary Seward. Various suggestions were offered. Secretary Chase
wished the language stronger in reference to the arming of the blacks. Mr.
Blair, after he came in, deprecated the policy, on the ground that it would
cost the Administration the fall elections. Nothing, however, was offered that
I had not already fully anticipated and settled in my own mind, until
Secretary Seward spoke. He said in substance: `Mr. President, I approve of the
proclamation, but I question the expediency of its issue at this juncture. The
depression of the public mind, consequent on our repeated reverses, is so
great that I fear the effect of so important a step. It may be viewed as the
last measure of an exhausted government, a cry for help; the government
stretching its hand to Ethiopia, instead of Ethiopia stretching her
hands to the government.' His idea, said the President,
"was that it would be considered our last shriek, on the retreat."
(This was his precise expression.) "'Now,' continued Mr. Seward, `while I
approve the measure, I suggest, sir, that you postpone its issue, until
you can give it to the country supported by military success, instead of
issuing it, as would be the case now, upon the greatest disasters of the war.'"
Mr. Lincoln continued: "The wisdom of the view of the Secretary of
State struck me with very great force. It was an aspect of the case that, in
all my thought upon the subject, I had entirely overlooked. The result was
that I put the draft of the proclamation aside, as you do your sketch
for a picture, waiting for a victory. From time to time I added or changed a
line, touching it up here and there, anxiously watching the progress of events.
Well the next news we had was of Pope's disaster, at Bull Run. Things looked
darker than ever. Finally came the week of the battle of Antietam. I
determined to wait no longer. The news came, I think, on Wednesday, that
the advantage was on our side. I was then staying at the Soldier's home,
(three miles out of Washington.) Here I finished writing the second draft of
the preliminary proclamation; came up on Saturday; called the Cabinet
together to hear it, and it was published the following Monday."
At the final meeting of September 20th, another interesting incident occurred
in connection with Secretary Seward. The President had written the important
part of the proclamation in these words:--
"That, on the first day of January, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight
hundred and sixty-three, all persons held as slaves within any State, or
designated part of a State, the people whereof shall then be in rebellion
against the United States, shall be then, thenceforward and forever FREE;
and the Executive Government of the United States, including the military
and naval authority thereof, will recognize the freedom of such persons, and
will do no act to repress such persons, or any of them, in any efforts they
shall make for their actual freedom." "When I finished reading this paragraph,"
resumed Mr. Lincoln, "Mr. Seward stopped me, and said, `I think, Mr.
President, that you should insert after the word "recognize'" in that sentence,
the words "and maintain."
Also from Carpenter:
Mr. Lincoln thereupon said: "Mr. Thompson, the people of Great Britain, and
of other foreign governments, were in one great error in reference to this
conflict. They seemed to think that, the moment I was President, I had the
power to abolish slavery, forgetting that, before I could have any power
whatever, I had to take the oath to support the Constitution of the United
States, and execute the laws as I found them. When the Rebellion broke out,
my duty did not admit of a question. That was, first, by all strictly lawful
means to endeavor to maintain the integrity of the government. I did not
consider that I had the right to touch the 'State' institution of 'Slavery'
until all other measures for restoring the Union had failed. The paramount idea
of the Constitution is the preservation of the Union. It may not be specified
in so many words, but that this was the idea of its founders is evident; for,
without the Union, the constitution would be worthless. It seems clear, then,
that in the last extremity, if any local institution threatened the existence
of the Union, the Executive could not hesitate as to his duty. In our case, the
moment came when I felt that slavery must die that the nation might live! ...
"Many of my strongest supporters urged Emancipation before I thought it
indispensible, and, I may say, before I thought the country was ready for it.
It is my conviction that, had the proclamation been issued even six months
earlier than it was, public sentiment would not have sustained it... A man
watches his pear-tree day after day, impatient for the ripening of the fruit.
Let him attempt to force the process, and he may spoil both fruit and tree.
But let him patiently wait, and the ripe pear at length falls into his lap!
We have seen this great revolution in public sentiment slowly but surely
progressing, so that, when final action came, the opposition was not strong
through to defeat the purpose. I can now solemnly assert," he concluded, "that
I have a clear conscience in regard to my action on this momentous question.
I have done what no man could have helped doing, standing in my place."
