Chapter 8: Washington.
In celebrating the attack and the fall of Sumter at Montgomery by a congratulatory speech and an official salute, the rebel Secretary of War ventured to predict that the Confederate flag would float over the capitol at Washington before the first of May.
Whether this was to be accomplished by plot, by open military campaign, or through mere insurrectionary reversion, he did not explain.
The idea, however, by long nursing and repeating, had become one of the fixed hopes of the rebellion.
When the news of the Baltimore riot reached the South, the fulfilment of the prophecy was believed to be at hand.
The revolt, which for a few days continually grew until it spread over all Maryland, served to deepen the universal impression.
The Baltimore conspirators themselves were animated to fresh daring by their flattering local prospects.
