CHAPTER VL-IS ELECTED TO CONGRESS AND TAKES DECISIVE POSITION ON THE MEXICAN WAR.
n 1846 Mr. Lincoln received the unanimous nomination for Congress by the Whig Convention for the Springfield Dis- trict. In 1844 the district had given a majority of 914 to Mr. Clay, and the Democracy expected, in the Congressional election of 1846, to greatly lessen, if not entirely overcome, this majority. With the hope of securing the latter result, they put in nomination Rev. Peter Cartwright, the famous Metho...dist preacher, a man of great popularity with the people generally, and especially popular with his own denomination, which embraced a very large and influential portion of the population of the district. Mr. Lincoln spoke in the principal towns in the district, on the political issues of the day. His opponent did not meet him in dis- cussion, but chose his own peculiar way of electioneering. The canvass resulted in the election of Mr. Lincoln by a majority of 1, 5 n, — a majority unprecedented in the district, and conclusive as to the estimation in which he was held by his immediate neighbors.
