Folio. One-page, in full: "To Col. Edward Manigault - Charleston / Of course the powder is not to be sent to Sumter or delivered except through our own officers and upon reasonable estimates -- no powder to be given to unfinished batteries, and magazines to be reported in safe order, but some powder must be immediately sent to batteries at Hilton Head & Bay point -- has any been sent? let them be prepared at any expence -- we must keep for the present 20,000 lb as reserve in Charleston. How much is in Moultrie. Please let me know. Genl. Twiggs telegraphs me from N. Orleans & begs for some, I supplied not a pound. Make any arrangement you can immediately to purchase me 50,000 lb / F.W. Pickens." Fort Walker on Hilton Head and Fort Beauregard on Bay Point, opposing sides to the entrance of Port Royal Sound in South Carolina, were constructed during the summer of 1861, fully armed and garrisoned by mid-August (though not fully prepared for battle), and then captured by Union troops during the Battle of Port Royal in early November 1861; this letter seems to have been written at the time the forts were bing constructed and outfitted, as Governor Pickens was concerned about arming Fort Sumter and other forts for the proper defense of his coastal areas. The Battle of Port Royal, one of the earliest amphibious actions by Union forces, resulted in a Union victory, the occupation Beaufort, the freeing of nearby slaves, and the establishment of a coastal post for continuing action in the area. Very good. Written on Carew Co. blue paper, some light browning around the edges and wear along left edge. (10514). Francis W. Pickens (1805-1867, S.C. state representative, 1832-1824, and senator, 1844-1846, U.S. House of Representatives, 1834-1843, U.S. Minister to Russia, 1858-1860, Governor of South Carolina, 1860-1862), was born to a wealthy connected family in Colleton County, South Carolina, and educated at Franklin College in Athens, Georgia, and South Carolina College in Columbia, S.C., before reading law and gaining admission to the bar in 1829. With a background in state and federal service, Pickens was elected Governor of South Carolina in time to oversee secession, demand the surrender of the forts in Charleston Harbor, sanction the firing on the "Star of the West" as it attempted to deliver supplies to the beleaguered Fort Sumter on January 9, 1861, and sanction the firing on that fort in April, 1861. Edward Manigault (1817-1874), a veteran of the Mexican War and a railroad engineer, served as Chief of Ordnance for South Carolina in 1861. He later served as an artillery officer in the regular Confederate army; his diary covering the last two years of the war was published as "Siege Train: The Journal of a Confederate Artilleryman in the Defense of Charleston" (USC Press, 1986). David E. Twiggs (1790-1862), a native of Georgia, served in the War of 1812, the Black Hawk War, and the Mexican War, and was commander of the Department of Texas and surrendered his entire command when the Civil War broke out. On May 22, 1861, Twiggs was commissioned major general in the Confederate army and given command of the Department of Louisiana, but, given his age and infirmities, resigned and was replaced by Mansfield Lovell, October 7, returning to his Georgia home to die the next year.…

Jamison, South Carolina Governor Francis W. Pickens asked for an official notification of the passage of a secession ordinance so that he could announce to the world that "we are a free & independent Republic." Complete Transcript Pickens to Jameson Executive Department / Decr. 22, 1860To Jamison / President of the ConventionSir, / I have received from the convention as yet no official notification of the passage of the Ordinance. I would most respectfully suggest that such notice be given in order that I may issue a proclamation announcing the fact to the world that we are a free & independent Republic-and as such, authorized to negociate treaties, & do all other acts that appertain to a free and Independent Republic. I have the Honor to be / Very respectfully / yr. ob. Servant F. W. PickensTo Genl. D JamisonComplete Transcript Jameson to Pickens St Andrews Hall, / December 25, 1860To His Excellency / F. W. PickensSir, / I have the honor to transmit herewith, a copy of a Resolution, adopted in Convention, this day. Very Respectfully / Your Obt servt D. F. Jamison / Prest: of ConventionOver the next two years, Jamison became one of Governor Pickens's chief critics.Historical BackgroundOn November 10, 1860, the South Carolina General Assembly called for a convention of the people of the state to draw up an ordinance of secession. After moving to Charleston to escape a smallpox epidemic at the state capitol, Columbia, on December 20, the Convention adopted the Secession Ordinance by a vote of 169 to 0.In addition to the Secession Ordinance, on December 24 the convention adopted two other major statements. A "Declaration of the Immediate Causes which Induce and Justify the Secession of South Carolina" justified secession based on the compact theory of the Union and, of course, the desire to defend slavery: "For twenty-five years this [antislavery] agitation has been steadily increasing, until it has now secured to its aid the power of the common Government. Observing the forms of the Constitution, a sectional party has found within that Article establishing the Executive Department, the means of subverting the Constitution itself. A geographical line has been drawn across the Union, and all the States north of that line have united in the election of a man to the high office of the President of the United States, whose opinions and purposes are hostile to slavery." Some members feared such a frank statement might not evoke sympathy from other nations, but an effort to send it back to the committee failed by a vote of 124 to 31.[1]The second was an "Address" of the people of South Carolina to the people of the other slaveholding states asserted that "the North's blatant violation of the Constitution" was "the one great evil, from which all other evils have flowed." It insisted that the Constitutional experiment begun in 1787 had "failed" to unite two very different peoples. It boldly declared, "All we demand of other peoples is, to be let alone, to work out our high destinies."[2]On December 25, under this cover letter, South Carolina Secession Convention President David F. Jamison conveyed to Governor Francis W. Pickens a resolution of the Convention (no longer present) asking the governor to send the Conventions three major messages to other southern governors.Francis W. Pickens (1807-1869) was born in South Carolina as the son of former Governor Andrew Pickens. He was educated at Franklin College (University of Georgia) and South Carolina College and obtained admission to the bar in 1829. He served in the South Carolina House of Representatives as a Democrat from 1832 to 1834 and supported nullifica. (See website for full description). Manuscript Letter Signed.…
