A Letter to a Whig Member of the Southern Independence Association

More about the book

The Government's actions have regrettably provided your Southern allies a significant opportunity to involve us with the Federals. They have chosen not to uphold their international duty, which clearly prohibits us, as professed neutrals, from allowing either side to use our shores for maritime operations. Instead, they rely on municipal law, which is irrelevant between nations, and have failed to amend this law to meet current needs. Consequently, we find ourselves in a situation where only the law's delay—an embarrassing form of protection—stands between us and a disaster that even those attempting to instigate it might hesitate to acknowledge.
