Secession belongs to a different class of remedies. It is to be justified upon the basis that the States are Sovereign. There was a time when none denied it. I hope the time may come again, when a better comprehension of the theory of our Government, and the inalienable rights of the people of the States, will prevent any one from denying that each State is a Sovereign, and thus may reclaim the grants which it has made to any agent whomsoever.

I read once that under the terms that Texas agreed to upon entry to the union, they have the right to succeed. Also the right to subdivide into 6 states...
Anyone know more about this?

Nullification? I thought Andrew Jackson did away with that silly notion by threatening to hang John C. Calhoun. If not, it died at Appomatox.
