Three-page printed broadside document titled "Correspondence on the proposed Southern Convention." Dated Tallahassee, Florida, March 7, 1850. The broadside includes a letter from the Florida Delegation to Congress addressed to Governor Thomas Brown, with printed signatures of D. L. Yulee, Jackson Morton, and E. C. Cabell. The letter expresses strong concerns about the North undermining the Southern social structure (slavery) and advocates for the Nashville Convention to organize Southern opposition to the Compromise of 1850. Governor Brown's lengthy reply refusing to participate in what he considered "a Revolutionary body" is also included. The broadside shows a green circular datestamp and matching "10" rate handstamp indicating its transit to Raleigh, North Carolina. Some tape mended internal splits are present; however, the document remains in very fine condition. Ex Meroni collection.
