North: Philadelphia
It keeps the capital in a fairly border state (the southern democratic party did well in Pennsylvania).  Also, Philadelphia is a good distance from the south.
South: New Orleans
This would ensure New Orleans didn't defect to the north.  It's one of the largest cities in the south at the time.  The one problem is the blockade.
