Read this passage from a letter written by abraham lincoln. “we have just carried an election on principles fairly stated to the people. now we are told in advance, the government shall be broken up, unless we surrender to those we have beaten . . if we surrender, it is the end of us, and of the government.” –abraham lincoln letter to senator j. t. hale january 11, 1861 in this passage, lincoln expresses concern about a. the secession of several southern states. b. the splintering of the democratic party. c. confederate troops firing on fort sumter. d. the formation of a new state, west virginia.

The correct answer is A) The secession of several Southern states.

After the election of 1860, many Southern states decide to leave (aka secede) the Union. It started with the state of South Carolina in December of 1860. Within a few months, seven other states like Mississippi, Georgia, Florida, etc. left the Union as well. When they all seceded they joined together to develop their own nation called the Confederacy. This secession, followed by the firing on Fort Sumter, would help lead to the beginning of fighting between the Union and Confederacy.
