industrial pursuits In the South. We have

white laborers In the sugar houses Of this city
and in many of the iron foundries and rolling
mills of the Northern States endure an amount
of heat as great a. the lsborer on q southeun
plantation is subjected to. The severity of IL
climate, then, can be no serious obstacle to the
development of the Southern States by white
labor. There is golden opportunity nov
offering for large emigration to the reooa-
struoted Southern States which, we have ~
doubt, will DO very generally availed o. The
old pseudo aristocrscy ia obliterated. Indas-
try and intelligence will find their proper ap-
probation henoeforth In Virginia, Georgia,
Alabama, the Carolinas and the other South
ern States, as they now enjoy in New
York, Massachusetts,, Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Indiana, and men must be more dull to tAeif
interest than the progressive spirit Of this age
indicates ii they do not avail themselves OF ~

vouchsafed to us.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1865-06-04

EMIGRATION TO THE SouTH.-The Southern
States are now open, under the new dispensa-
ton Of peace, to the industry and enterprise of
the country, and will, no doubt also invite
much Of the skill and labor which is crowding
upon MS from abroad. That there will be q
large emigration TO the South there can be NO
question. And that 1t will combine the most
valuable elements in the development of that
region is equally true. The climate and soil
Of the South are without parallel perhaps in the
world. Under the system Of slave lsbor-now
veloped. Millions Of acres Of good arabic land
have never been touched by the plough or sub
mitted 10 skilled labor. Whole tracts of coun-
try in Virginia, Maryland and the Carolinas,
which have lain from immemorisl time under
dense forests, have been cleared by our armies,
from the necessities Of war, and thus prepared
for culture. These are but few Of the reasons
why the South presents ct this time splendid
field for the emigrsnt, whether from the North
or from Europe. The Southern States are re-
lievsd forever from the incubus of slavery.
White labor has no longer 10 contend with in
voluntary servitude. Therefore the white
Aborer has an advantage never before enjoyed.
The disenthralled negroA, or ~ least the indus
triously inclined portion Of them will give their
labor at comparatively modest rates, for they
must earn living, and will be glad 10 obtain
II; and hence those who settle ppon the farms
can procure NE services Of skilled agricultur-
lists among the free negroes very readily.
The ides that white men could not endure
the climate Of the Southern States has been dis
PEELED in . very great degree by what our
Northern soldiers have gone through without
Permanently affecting theis health, and but
slightly inpsirins .dSir comfort. Men wAQ

So far as the United States arc concerned,

flowing not only into the far West, even to the
Pacific coast, but into the rich plantations of
the South. The latter will occur after while,
but the status of the negro has to be settled
first In the meantime let those In Europe

government, growing more powerful and more
benefoent every day, turn their eyes to the
shores of republican America.
