Agree with the your description of the circumstances surrounding the final disposition of the Corwin Amendment. The original reaction by the South to the proposed amendment was, IMO, another gigantic red flag waved in Northern faces..Indicating the South’s unshakable desire to conquer with the spread of slavery for whatever reason...labor, political power etc...

Huh? Desire to spread slavery? What are you talking about? The Southern states simply wished to leave. Nothing more. They made no claim to the western territories. They had no desire to spread slavery.
