What happened after the Gettysburg address was given?
Many believed Lincoln's Gettysburg Address was a disappointment immediately after he delivered it, because the people believed that the President spoke to short to address the full magnitude of the Battle of Gettysburg. It took a while for most people to realize that Lincoln's words were actually incredibly well said, and that they actually did do justice to the Battle. As another speaker who spoke at the ceremony told Lincoln afterwords, "You've summed up in two minutes what I said in two hours and to ten times the effect."
Was the Gettysburg address the shortest speech made by a president in the history of the U.S?
What, exactly, counts as a "speech"? Lincoln's Gettysburg Address was listed in the program as "Dedicatory Remarks." It was intended by the organizers as a courtesy to the President, but very definitely was not the "main event" of the occasion; for that they had Edward Everett, a politician from Massachusetts who was widely considered to be one of the foremost American speakers of the day. Everett gave a two-hour oration; Lincoln was given a couple of minutes for his remarks since it seemed disrespectful to have the President there and not allow him to say SOMETHING. There are plenty of times when a President makes a few public remarks or introduces someone. In that sense, there's really no answer to the question: is "No comment" a speech? That said: it's certainly one of the shortest SIGNIFICANT speeches made by a US President.

Why did Lincoln deliver the Gettysburg Address?
The Battle of Gettysburg, although a Union victory, cost the Army of the Potomac some 23,000 lives. It was such a large loss of lives (for both sides) that Lincoln was asked to come to say a "few words" at the dedication of a battlefield cemetery. Lincoln took the opportunity to encourage the people of the North to continue the struggle to save the Union. The brief inspirational speech became widely known and succeeded in reinforcing the morale of the North.
