Abraham Lincoln, in an original carte de visite of the 'Cooper Union' portrait. It was taken on Feb. 27, 1860, by Mathew Brady, before Lincoln delivered his Cooper Union address in New York City. In his speech at the Cooper Institute, Lincoln argued that the Federal Government could prohibit slavery in the national territories. He said Republicans were no threat to slavery where it already existed, but slavery must be excluded from the national territories, and not extended any more states. This moderate position, compared to that of abolitionists, contributed to his presidential nomination (BSLOC_2019_8_105)
