Because they thought the cotton revenues would be enough to support a new nation.

As soon as Union troops entered an area the slaves would runaway behind union lines. It was the policy of the army not to turn slaves over to their owners. They were referred as "contraband " because contraband doesn't have to be returned. Nearly 180,000 free black men and escaped slaves served in the union army. Yet, they did struggle with discrimination and were segregated in all ways. Often they had white officers. Watch the movie Glory to get a feel for this.
Very few reflections of slaves regarding this period have made it to the common press. We can guess that some felt a period of hope at the election of Mr. Lincoln, but were distressed or sorrowful when the states seceded. It is hard to be sure.

Romeo is an outlaw, banished from Verona. His appearance there meant that any citizen would be justified in killing him. This includes Paris.
Because he was a religious fanatic, not a politician.
South Carolina seceded because they believed that the institution of slavery was in peril. I believe the Civil War was about states rights - that is, the states rights to maintain slavery. South Carolina was complaining about the northern states violating the Constitution by not enforcing the Fugitive Slave Act. The union felt that South Carolina was independent and did not want slavery so now they are in war.
yes, they seceded from the union as soon as they heard of Abe Lincoln's victory, they knew that if they didn't Abe (the president) would just take over them provent the slavery from ever happening.
