State of the Union Addresses is a collection of four speeches held to the American Congress by Franklin Pierce, who served as the 14th president of the United States from 1853 to 1857. Excerpt: "Although disease, assuming at one time the characteristics of a widespread and devastating pestilence, has left its sad traces upon some portions of our country, we have still the most abundant cause for reverent thankfulness to God for an accumulation of signal mercies showered upon us as a nation. It is well that a consciousness of rapid advancement and increasing strength be habitually associated with an abiding sense of dependence upon Him who holds in His hands the destiny of men and of nations."
State of the Union Address By Andrew Johnson To express gratitude to God in the name of the people for the preservation of the United States is my first duty in addressing you. Our thoughts next revert to the death of the late President by an act of parricidal treason. The grief of the nation is still fresh. It finds some solace in the consideration that he lived to enjoy the highest proof of its confidence by entering on the renewed term of the Chief Magistracy to which he had been elected; that he brought the civil war substantially to a close; that his loss was deplored in all parts of the Union, and that foreign nations have rendered justice to his memory. His removal cast upon me a heavier weight of cares than ever devolved upon any one of his predecessors. To fulfill my trust I need the support and confidence of all who are associated with me in the various departments of Government and the support and confidence of the people. There is but one way in which I can hope to gain their necessary aid. It is to state with frankness the principles which guide my conduct, and their application to the present state of affairs, well aware that the efficiency of my labors will in a great measure depend on your and their undivided approbation.

In this powerful speech, Emerson Etheridge raises his voice in opposition to secession and calls for unity in the face of the growing crisis that would soon lead to the Civil War. With stirring language and a deep belief in the strength of the American union, Etheridge reminds his fellow legislators of the stakes of their decisions. This historical document is an important reminder of the courage and conviction needed to stand up for one's beliefs, even in the face of great opposition.
