Wikipedia says that printing is from the New York Times (and that they were a Republican-leaning paper then!). They also mention what the Democrats of the day thought of the speech...

The Democratic-leaning Chicago Times observed, “The cheek of every American must tingle with shame as he reads the silly, flat and dishwatery utterances of the man who has to be pointed out to intelligent foreigners as the President of the United States.”[60]
