"Glance at the attitude of England toward the United
States. We see there are two well-defined parties, neither of them
friendly to us as a nation; one the cotton interest siding with the
South, and the other, the abolition coteries siding with the North,
and so England, balancing herself adroitly between these two
parties...can give aid...to one section or the other or both, to
prevent conciliation, as best may service the political purpose of
England, the Permanent Division of the United States." (Samuel
Morse, in 1860)
