Threats on Tariff Move Sparks Southern Union Debate
The Richmond Whig reports a Milledgeville Southern print urging a constitutional yet militant anti tariff stance and a proposed Southern Congress, likening it to Hartford Convention and urging Virginia to resist, while condemning the plan as dangerous to the Union. It contrasts Southern zeal with Virginia’s historic fidelity to the Union and Jacksonian support.
