Text Appearing Before Image:
son shall be taken into military custody. Commanding officers are directed to enforce this order within theirrespective commands. By command of Major-General McClellan: L. THOMAS, Adjutant-General. Executive Mansion, Washington, November 27, 1861.The municipal authorities of Washington and Georgetown, in thisDistrict, having appointed to-morrow, the 28th instant, as a day of thanks-giving, the several Departments will on that occasion be closed, in orderthat the officers of the Government may partake in the ceremonies. ABRAHAM L,INCOL,N. FIRST ANNUAL MESSAGE. Washington, December 3, 1861.Fellow-Citizens of the Senate and House of Representatives: In the midst of unprecedented political troubles we have cause of greatgratitude to God for unusual goodhealth and most abundant harvests. You will not be surprised to learn that in the peculiar exigencies ofthe times our intercourse with foreign nations has been attended withprofound solicitude, chiefly turning upon our own domestic affairs.
Text Appearing After Image:
BOMBARDMENT OF FORT SUMTER. The story of the bombardment and fall of Fort Sumter is best told byAbraham Lincoln (page 3221). In fact, his messages form the most remark-able treatise ever written on the moral aspect of the great conflict. Judged by the loss of life, no battle could be more insignificant, saysRhodes. Not a man on either side was killed. Judged by the train ofevents which ensued, few contests in our history have been more momentous. The people of the North, he continues, to the last praying and hopingthat actual hostilities might be averted, were profoundly moved. . . . Withexcitement and with sorrow they followed the course of the bombardment;with stern determination their minds accepted the policy which this graveevent portended, and when on Monday, April 15, 1861, they read of thePresidents call for 75,000 militia . . . they gave with one voice their approvalof the policy foreshadowed, and rose almost as one man to the support oftheir chief magistrate.
