Cleveland morning leader. [volume] (Cleveland [Ohio]) 1854-1865, 1862-05-16

Fbs present inhsbitants Of the rsbellious
States have cause to curse the rebellion and
the leaders Of it; the people now resident
there, who live there thirty years hence, viii
Be thankful for it. The former see their
lands dssolated, their homes broken up, and
theproduot Of their industry or Of their slaves
labog, Ssiled By the same arbitrary authority
that foFbids the planting Of more cotton than
barely SUFFICIENT for the domestic wants Of the
planter; the latter will see the former re-
nswsd, the homes thrifty and happy, and the
btoduct Of the ground increased tWO-ioidi
with ready markets and good prices. What
e to accomplish thisl Not change In the
deposition Of the southernsrs now calling
themselves citiFens In those States; their
inslinatiO1 toward living ct ease upon the
products Of unpaid labor or In squalhd pew
6Fiy through competition with that labor,
Will never be radically changed BUTT Il to
be done through the Influx Of Northern
s-algsh, energy and brains; through the
Improvements which are sure to follow the
msrOh Of civilized immigrants. For there
en- thouBands and tens Of Thousands Of our
hrrdy volunteers who VIII never return to
The Eorth, unless to obtain Oapital or ma
ohinsry with which to establish themselves
inthsir new found homes. There are ia the
amy hess Of young men who had no Rrm,
abidine rlacs in The North they labOEsd and
lived ps accident threw the opportunities in
their way. These men have braiEs and In
dustTy, and only want the occasion which
aban call them forth to make men Of Gction.
The opportunity is unfolding itself 70 them
every day Of their campaigning in the South.

idly to their mouths which might be made to
tuTn the machinery Of hundred mills; vii
lagss which should be cities, and cities dying
ont which ahculd be al aglsW with life and

turs homes and, prospective business; not

hand in hand with nature to produce q sus-

dsoay Of the South, 80 they see with equal
elsaEaoa the cause Of It. They may 90 away
