[Translation.] Mottoes on the Seal: {Altius Tendimus. Travail et Concorde. Canadian Institute, found ed in 1844, incorporated in 1853.} To His Excellency the Hon. Andrew Johnson, President of the United States: May it please your Excellency: With profound sentiments of affliction and indignation, the Canadian Institute heard of the horrible murder that has spread consternation among the people of the United States, and of the execrable attempt of assassination upon the person of the honorable Secretary of State. The premature and tragic death of the eminent man, so universally respected and admired, who was the political chief of the great nation that your excellency is now called upon to govern, is, in the opinion of the Canadian Institute, not only a terrible national calamity, but an event that brings sorrow and mourning upon all true friends of liberty and progress, and upon the enemies of slavery and tyranny throughout the world, and sincere grief to the believers in democratic institutions; who were proud to see one of the most upright and blameless men that ever governed a nation at the head of the freest people on the face of the earth. The members of the Canadian Institute, in their humble sphere, admired Abraham Lincoln as much for his rare modesty and the self-denial of which he gave so many glorious examples, as they esteemed him for his elevated conception of political and private probity, which even his enemies could not refuse to acknowledge in him. Slavery had already sacrificed enough victims; and it was truly lamentable that the great chief of the nation, who had destroyed the monster, should become its last and most illustrious martyr. It is, indeed, deplorable that this great and renowned patriot, the impersonation of national unity, of fidelity to the Constitution and devotion to duty, should be added to the hecatomb of sacrifices of defenders of the Constitution and the laws, caused by the accursed institution of slavery. The Canadian Institute, watching with interest the various events in the social or political progress of a people towards civilization, ventures to express to your excellency the great pleasure it feels at the abolition of slavery in the glorious American republic. The consequence of this act will be the blotting out of the only stain upon democratic institutions, which have been so often corrupted, perverted, and turned from their true path by an accursed institution, which was an emphatic denial of all human rights, and a violation of every divine law; and the restoration of peace in the United States, a peace that must endure, since the sole cause of the terrible war that has desolated the great country has disappeared with slavery. The Canadian Institute rejoices that your excellency escaped the assassin’s dagger, and expresses its most sincere wish for the success of your administration; it hopes you may overcome the existing obstacles in the way of a perfect peace and reunion, with the same success that attended your illustrious predecessor, and wishes you may fill the honorable and glorious position in the history of the United States which was promised by your memorable assurances of devotion to the integrity of your country, and to its glorious and admirable Constitution.

(Ulysses Simpson), 1822-1885 Armed Forces--Officers United States. Army Presidents American Civil War (1861-1865) Description An account of the resource Ulysses S. Grant was born in Point Pleasant, Ohio, in 1822. He attended West Point and served in the Mexican-American War under General Zachary Taylor. At the outbreak of the Civil War, Illinois Governor Richard Yates appointed Grant to command a volunteer regiment. Following his success with the regiment, Grant rose to the rank of brigadier general of volunteers. After his victory at Fort Donelson in 1862, President Lincoln named Grant to major general of volunteers. Lincoln appointed Grant as General in Chief of the United States Army in 1864, leading the United States to a successful end of the Civil War. Following the Civil War, Grant led the military's efforts during Reconstruction. Grant was elected President of the United States in 1868 and won re-election four years later. While in office Grant worked to unite the North and South while facing the rise of groups such as the Ku Klux Klan and increasing attacks on African Americans. Grant's administration was marred by financial scandals. After leaving office, Grant was a partner in an unsuccessful investment firm which failed after one partner stole the firm's investors money. Grant then negotiated a book deal to write his memoirs. Shortly after beginning to write, he was diganosed with cancer of the throat. Grant accelerated his writing process, completing his memoirs two months before dying. Photographs in this collection include portraits of Grant, images of several buildings he lived in during his lifetime, and images of his funeral in New York City.

Mr. J. P. Webster, the unrivaled song writer, is engaged by the publisher to compose for him exclusively for a number of years. The name of the celebrated Composer is always a guarantee of the intrinsic beauty and excellence of a song.

A Collection of Secular and Sacred Music, consisting of Part I.---The Practical Singing Class. Part II.---Glees, Opera Choruses, and Quartettes. Part III.---Anthems, Hymn Tunes, and Chants. Designed especially for Elemental and Advanced Classes, and Musical Festivals. BY S. WESLEY MARTIN. The rudimental part of this work differs from all others by its completeness of details, and by the judicious blending of the practice of the voice with beautiful melody and harmony. The vocal collections embrace only copy-righted pieces, which no one but the Publisher of this work has a right to issue. Nearly all the song and hymn books published are filled with music that no one ever sings, and are put in simply to fill the book, in order that it may appear as large as possible for the price. We can confidently state that there is not one page in the book but what is useful, instructive, and beautiful in harmony and melody. We want it to become the book for all classes, and have spared neither time nor expense in the compilation of this work. Price, $1,00 per Copy.---$9,00 a Dozen. 1 sample copy will be sent post-paid to any teacher of vocal music, on receipt of fifty cents. The Publisher hereby would add, that, being the oldest Music House in Chicago, and owning by far the largest number of copy-righted pieces, (some of which have had immense sales,) his facilities are so great as to enable him to fill all orders for any publication in the United States. Mr. J. P. Webster, the unrivaled song writer, is engaged by the publisher to compose for him exclusively for a number of years. The name of the celebrated Composer is always a guarantee of the intrinsic beauty and excellence of a song. We shall hereafter import our STRINGS direct from Europe, And can offer greater inducements in that article, as regards price and quality, than any other importing house. OUR STOCK OF PIANOS, MELODEONS, INSTRUMENTS, AND MUSICAL MERCHANDISE, Will be found very complete. All orders by mail punctually attended to. Address, H. M. HIGGINS, 117 Randolph Street, CHICAGO. No matter where you see a piece of Music advertised, by writing to us, enclosing the marked price, we will mail it postage free to any address.

(Frank Everett), 1856-1939 Black Hawk War (1832) Generals Soldiers War of 1812 Veterans Mexican War (1846-1848) Generals Legislators Indians of North America Description An account of the resource Frank E. Stevens was a lawyer, banker, newspaper editor and writer based in Illinois. Stevens was born and educated in Dixon, Illinois. He studied law in Sycamore, Illinois, and was admitted to the bar in 1877. Shortly after that he moved to South Dakota where he operated the Beadle County National Bank until 1890 when he moved to Chicago and worked in a brokerage business. In 1907 Stevens returned to Sycamore, Illinois, where he published the Dixon Weekly Citizen and later the Sycamore Tribune. He retired from the newspaper business in 1928 and was elected mayor of Sycamore in 1931. Governor Henry Horner appointed Stevens to the War Records Division of the office of the Adjutant General. Stevens was a historian who authored several historical works including The Black Hawk War. Stevens used the majority of the items in the collection while researching and writing The Black Hawk War. The Black Hawk War (1832), although brief, has much significance for Native American history. In April, tribal groups of Sauk, Meskwakis, and Kickapoo, led by Chief Black Hawk of the Sauk, crossed the Mississippi River from Iowa into Illinois. Known as the British Band, they claimed lands under the 1804 Treaty of St. Louis, a treaty the whites disputed. Fearful, militia’s fired on the Native American delegation in what led to the Battle of Stillman’s Run, a resounding defeat for the militias. Black Hawk was eventually defeat, however, at the battles of Wisconsin Heights and Bad Axe. Historically, the Black Hawk War legitimized and strengthened forcible relocation of Native American tribes further west. The finding aid for the Frank E. Stevens Papers, 1832-1939 at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum is located at: http://alplm-cdi.com/chroniclingillinois/items/show/610.
