The Daily Dispatch: March 8, 1861., [Electronic resource], Reception of Mr. Lincoln's Inaugural. (search)
March 5.--Mr. Lincoln's Inaugural was received here yesterday, in three hours, from Washington. It is regarded as incongruous and contradictory relative to constitutional rights. The assertion that the ordinances of the seceded States are void, and their acts insurrectionary, coupled with the determination to hold, occupy and possess the Government property, and to collect the revenue, are received as an open declaration of war. The assertion that no blood will be shed, and no invasion made unless the South resists, is ridiculed. Dispatches to-day from Montgomery universally concede war to be inevitable. The Southern Congress was engaged in organizing a standing army of ten thousand men.--Eight thousand men can at once be placed on a movable war footing. The Picayune of to-day states that a precedent exists for the South to regard any attempt at coercion as a declaration of war by the act of Congress, in 1845, declaring in preamble that "war exists by the act of Mexico."
