Sucli a course would have procured for us, as it did for our fathers, the respect, the sympathy, and the assistance of other nations. Instead of that, we have not a friend in Europe. But such was not the course which these — in their own estimation — wise statesmen chose to pursue. When such a course was suggested or re- commended to them, they evaded it by a long list of magnificent promises, which looked so splendid as al- most to dazzle the mind with their brilliancy.
A VOICE FROM NOETH-CARO
...LINA. 11 Promises of the Secessionists.
First and foremost, they promised that secession should be peaceable.
Secondly. They promised that if perchance war should ensue, it would be a very short war; that it would not last six months ; that the Yankees would not fight ; that one Southerner could whip from ten to one hundred of them ; that England and France would speedily recognize us, and render us every assistance we might desire; that whatever might be their ab- stract opinions of the subject of Slavery, their interests would impel them to promote its perpetuity in the Southern States ; that if, after all, they should not be disposed to assist us, Cotton ivas King, and would soon bring all the crowned heads of Europe on their knees in supplication to us ; would compel them to raise the blockade — should one be established — in thirty days, in sixty days, in ninety days, in one hundred and twenty days, in six months, in nine months, in one year at furthest.
