Synopsis

Excerpt from The Encyclopedia Americana: A Library of Universal Knowledge

With the news of the attack and surrender the country received President Lincoln's proc lamation calling for volunteers, and sum moning Congress to meet on 4 July. In an instant discussion over the power to coerce States, the discussion of peace conventions and movements and all similar perplexing questions were brushed aside, and the North responded with intense enthusiasm, the predominating sentiment being the preservation of the Union. The South was equally aflame, rallying under the banner of State rights.
