??I will say, then, that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in anyway the social and political equality of the white and black races??.

??If I could save the Union without freeing any slaves I would do it?? what I do about slavery and the colored race, I do because I believe it helps save the Union??.

??We did not go to War to put down slavery, but to put the flag back, and to act differently, at this moment, would, I have no doubt, not only weaken our cause, but smack of bad faith??.

When asked ??Why not let the South to go in peace??? Abe replied ??I can??t let them go, who would pay for the Government??.


Grant

??The sole object of this war is to restore the Union. Should I be convinced it has any other object, or that the Government designs using its soldiers to execute the wishes of the Abolitionists, I pledge to you my honor as a man and a soldier I would resign my commission and carry my sword to the other side??.

F-"The 1866 act was of dubious constitutionality and was reenacted in 1870 only after the passage of the Fourteenth Amendment".(see second source). Actually the 14 th amendment has never been ratified. (see first source).

God Bless The South
