Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from State Sovereignty and the Doctrine of Coercion: Together With a Letter From Hon. J. K. Paulding, Former Sec; Of Navy; The Right to Secede
The recent speech of Mr. Douglas at Norfolk, in which he threatened the Southern States with military coercion in the event of secession, ought to startle and arouse the people of those States, like the blast of a hostile trumpet at midnight! The time, the place, and the circumstances under which this threat was uttered, give the last finish to its audacity and sanguinary significance!
