Lincoln reports resolutions drawn up by committee. They express
sympathy for Hungarian, Irish, and German revolutionists, denounce
foreign intervention in domestic troubles, and assert that "it is the
right of any people, sufficiently numerous for national independence,
to throw off . . . their existing form of government, and to
establish such other in its stead as they may choose."
