Lincoln’s First Inaugural Address The Public Reacts “For myself, I am free to declare that the election of LINCOLN (about which I entertain no doubt) ought to be regarded as an act of determined hostility; and I regard it, also, as immediately threatening the peace and safety of the South. As such, we should not wait till we experience the first or least of its pernicious consequences; but, foreseeing them, put ourselves at once in the attitude of independence, and thus escape or be prepared to defend ourselves against them. It may be that conflict and bloodshed will ensue.” F.D.Richardson, Esq. of South Carolina

Lincoln’s First Inaugural Address The Public Reacts “Col. ORR calls Mr. K.'s attention to the results of the teachings of Black Republicanism, as developed in resistance to the Fugitive Slave Law, the inveigling of slaves, the raid of JOHN BROWN, and the recent insurrectionary movements in Texas, and asks -- can it be prudent, safe or manly, to submit to the domination of a party whose declared purpose is to destroy us and subvert our whole social and industrial policy?” F.D.Richardson, Esq. of South Carolina

Lincoln’s First Inaugural Address The Public Reacts “The whole message receives almost universal commendation from the Union men, and censure and repudiation from the Secessionists. The latter regard the declaration of the intention to defend and hold the Federal property as a declaration of war and coercion. Prominent gentlemen in Charleston sent advices here to-day to the effect that the Star of the West, or any other vessel, attempting to reach Fort Sumter, or enter the harbor under the American flag, would be fired upon by the batteries and troops.” Our Washington Dispatches, Wednesday, Jan. 9 New York Times
