Charleston Convention and Southern Confederacy Moves
The telegraphed dispatches describe the Charleston Convention electing commissioners for Georgia and Virginia, appointing a commission for the slaveholding states, and adopting measures to form a Southern Confederacy. Reports note declarations on treason, the transfer of federal powers to the states, and calls to rally for a new political framework amid Civil War tensions. President Lincoln’s stance and Union anxieties frame the day’s events as martial preparations intensify along the seaboard.
