What freedom did Lincoln violate?
Actually, several.

During the Civil War, that right was suspended. You could be arrested, and held in prison without trial.
When may the writ of habeas corpus be suspended?
"The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it." - Article I, Section 9, Clause 2, U.S. Constitution This means that only in time of an active rebellion or foreign invasion may it be suspended, and, even then, the President's action is subject to Supreme Court review. Generally speaking, the Supreme Court requires that suspension be as limited as possible (i.e. only in the affected areas, not elsewhere), though, of course, this is highly dependent on the situation, and is a drastic step not taken lightly.
