your private opinion as to the prospect OF
affairs, so that | may have some basis to
go upon. Do you think the South have
resources enough to keep the Union for

of their independence or will Lincoln's s
army crush them out? You must have
sources of information which | have net,
to enable you to form some opinion upon
these matters.
