Excerpt from Secession: In the Future The future of our country is regarded as uncertain. In this it resembles, with some features peculiar to itself, every other future. Who can foretell precisely to-day what to-morrow may bring forth in the commonest routine of individual life, or ordinary national progress? No one can control his fate, or even perceive its development. The mind is variously influenced, according to its own innate tendencies, as well as by outward circumstances, and it contemplates days to come, as sure in prospective existences, but vaguely defined in character and incident. Under the influence of these sentiments we propose to devote a few pages to a consideration of the probable state of the nation in the coming time. Enough is known for the proposed inquiry, although not to resolve the problem with mathematical exactitude, yet to reach a gratifying assurance of the truth. Speaking in a logical sense, the premises are broad enough for a satisfactory conclusion. The subject is attended with difficulty sufficient to warn us of the necessity of patient inquiry and untiring activity.
