That's like asking why a dog would want off his/her leash...FREEDOM. Obviously slaves didn't want to be slaves and when they heard of the north fighting for their freedom they wanted to help as much as they possibly could. I mean if you were a slave and heard you could get freed wouldn't you do anything you could?
