Ethos is the character/credibility of one's self, if Lincoln couldn't sell his ethos as the President of the United States at the time, he would be kicked from his position immediately. Gaining ethos gives the audience a reason to believe them because you know- he's the president.
Pathos is to use emotions/passion to persuade and sell your point. In his speech, Lincoln uses pathos when addressing the soldiers and people who were lost.
