The South in peril as Congress rifts widen
A Southern viewpoint warns that the North’s abolition drive and a hostile Congress threaten state rights and the Union.

It critiques Fillmore, warns of patronage via public lands, and predicts future tariffs and land schemes. The author likens political actors to Quixotes and urges self-reliance amid looming sectional strife.
