I doubt no t that it is really, as she says, the best cure for the blues, cou ld one but take it ac– cordi ng to the truth." In his speech , Cincinnati, September 17, 1859, he said, "The good old r.1axjms of the Bible are applicable, and truly ap– plicable, to human affairs, and in this, as j n other things, we may say here that he who is not for us is against us; he who gathereth not with us, scactereth." T o Newton Bateman, before the 1860 election, he wrote: "I know there is a God, and that H e hates injt1stice and slavery. I see the storm coming, and I know H is hand is in it. I f H e has a place and work for me, and I think He has, I believe I am ready. I am nothing, but truth is everything. I know I am right, for Christ teaches it, and Christ is G od. l have told that a house divided against itself C? nnot stand, and Christ and reason say the S3 me thing; and they will find it so. D oug las doesn' t care whether slavery is vo ted up or down, but God cares, and humanity cares, and I care; and with God's help I shall not fail . I may no t see the end, but it will come and I shall be vindicated ; a nd these men will find that they have no t read their Bibles aright. -Copied. --------- NOTICE!
