Lincoln Congressional Debates:

[Nathan Towne]

Hi,

I would like to read Congressional debates online and was looking for where/how to do so? I am well aware of the function of the Congressional Globe at the time, but cannot find the text anywhere online. I am talking from the 1840's through the end of the 1860's. If anyone could help me that way, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thank you,
Nathan Towne

The Web Archive of the Library of Congress appears to have all of them, but the interface seems very slow.
