Emigration and U S Policy Amid Southern Recovery
The article argues for a robust industrial class in the South and notes Polish families moving from New York to Virginia to establish farms and industry. It discusses liberty as a driver of labor, the appeal of Europe’s poor to American opportunity, and hopes for Mexican liberal support with U S restraint on entangling alliances amid Maximilian abduction concerns. It also cites Rhode Island revenue through October 1866, a Maine bank counter theft, and Butler blocked from speaking by a hostile crowd in New York City.
