In part of his Inaugural Address, Davis said the following:
"... we have vainly endeavored to secure tranquility and obtain respect for the rights to which we were entitled. As a necessity, not a choice,
we have resorted to separation, and henceforth our energies must be devoted to the conducting of our own affairs, and perpetuating the
Confederacy If (the North) shall permit us to pursue our separate political career, my most earnest desire will have been fulfilled. For
purposes of defense, the Confederate States under ordinary circumstances may rely upon their militia; but it is deemed advisable in the
present condition or affairs, that there should be a well instructed, disciplined army, more numerous than would be usually required for a
peace establishment."
What is Davis telling the Northern states in this part of his Inaugural Address?
