MU. HAYNE’S SPEECH. —r OK TIN FI I).
I trust, Sir, that we have now made
oat oar case—that wo have shown tlie
unjust and unequal o, oration, in every
point of view, of litis system, and Hint,
us Ihr ns the South is concerned, and the
West also, though not in the same de
gree, it is tin unmitigated system of bur
dens. Ami, even with regard lo the fa
vored section, I would submit,' how far
it is wise to insist upon a system which
can only be maintained at Hie expense
of other sections. Sir, I li-el too taiii-li
eoniidenee in tlie justice' and magnaiiini
ily of our Northern brethren to sutler
! myst'll to doubt llieir willingness to aban
don this system if they could see it in the
light thiil we do. ll may enrich them
for Lie moment, bill Hie prosperity it cre
ates is artificial, and will assuredly lie
j unsubstantial. No country can be per
mai.eiitly benefit led by n system of boun
ties. This system may destroy the South,
but it will not permanently advance the
pro perily ofllte North. It may depress
us, bat cannot elevate them. Resides.
Sir, if persevered in, it must annihilate
licit, portion of Hie country from which
the resources are to he drawn, that tire
lo enrich the Northern niamifactnrers
Xml it may he well for gentlemen to re
(lect. whether adhering to this policy
would not be neting like the man who .
••killed the goose which laid Hie golden }
eggs.” Let gentlemen be assured, thin ,
Ibis is n system which cannot possibly ,
last. It will sooner or later he tilleilv ,
overthrown. Would it not be wed,
therefore, for them lo seize Ibis favoro ,
bio occasion to make some stienlice ol
their peculiar interests to the general
welfare?
ia concluding, Air. President, what I
have to say on this branch of Hie sabjoc I
I must take the liberty of presenting a >'
few general considerations. In a broad '
view of the question, it never can lie ex •
pedienl to introduce into a country the
iiiamifiicturc of any article that cannot h<
produced as ehet ply at home as it. can
be obtained from abroad. There in
■oitaesuch now made ia lids eotmlry, tine
their ability to sustain themselves, who
out protection, is unquestionable. Th.
only exception I would admit to the nil
I have laid down,relates to articles strict
ly necessary to national defence. I d
not allude to the habiliments of n soldiei.

in supposing that this objection to the

I p to IttsM, the question had not been
