Former Whig (nationalist) Representative Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois, speaking to a public gathering, in Springfield, Illinois, praises the recent Scott v. Sanford (a.k.a. Dred Scott) decision of the Supreme Court, of the federal united States:
There is a natural disgust in the minds of nearly all white people, to the idea of an indiscriminate amalgamation of the white and black races; A separation of the races is the only perfect preventive of amalgamation but as an immediate separation is impossible the next best thing is to keep them apart where they are not already together. If white and black people never get together in Kansas, they will never mix blood in Kansas. That is at least one self-evident truth.
