Wealth Shifts After War Highlighted by Emancipation Losses
A New York Avenue correspondent analyzes postwar wealth changes across states, noting dramatic declines in enslaving states like Arkansas and South Carolina from 1860 to 1870 due to emancipation. Non slaveholding states show sharp wealth gains, while overall southern wealth drops from 6.746 to 5.462 billion. The piece argues peace brings hope and urges focus on agriculture and independence as the next decade unfolds.
