Book excerpt: Excerpt from Considerations Relative to a Southern Confederacy Such being the state of things in our country, it is time to ponder them well it is time to look out for our self-preserva tion. Now the question comes up, shall we be any better off in a Southern Confederacy than in one with such discordant elements in it as the present one with the North, and espe 'cially with that puritan people of New England? I am not so presumptuous, Mr. Editor, as to suppose that I can lift the veil of the future, and disclose what will and what will not be the state of things in so deplorable an event as the breaking up of this great confederacy. I content myself with laying before my fellow-citizens of the State the views and considerations which have presented themselves to my mind, in a long and anxious examination of the subject. I propose to offer these considerations very concisely'in the following order: let, the relations that would exist to the civilized world, in case of the formation of a Southern Confederacy by the fifteen slave States; next to the North, or to a Northern Confederacy; and, lastly, those that would exist among the States and people of the Southern Confederacy themselves.
