REDUCTION OF DUTIESt I shall at* proceed Mr. President, lo examine the character fit ike protecting ayslsni. And here, | shall ittiume, that Ihe protection it egteml* to the Anterieee meaufhetuett is something substantial, and kflbrds songs advantage,L« it more or lees, to the protected interests. I shall tahe.it A>r grentem tliut it is.intended to eufible ■he Aroettfidn. tnaunfartureri to eniet into llmt succeseful competition with the for* eign, whiclztltey could not do erhheut such protections t{htd the effort of the syatem to io enable the American manufacturer to obtikin more for his goods than he could Otherwise command. In a ward* that it ttlTonde substantial protection, and is not lifcei that extended to cotton—11 mere mime, for, on this latter point, lot it. be remembered, that Ihe first cotton produced in this country found it market abroad; and that even now, nearly the whole of it it disposed af in Europe, whoro it ratriu- tninx a succeseful caaipeiiilon ngiiitnt hH (he world. It is idle, therefore, to talk of the benefit of.a protectiog'duty to rat ion at home. It it beyond ull dispute, Sir, tltpt, if any duty be ntetnarp tr/ pre lection, it can only be, because it enublca ■he .nmnufaciurer to soli Ids goods for more than he could otherwise obtain for thorn. Now, io this view of the subject, lei US see how'itie question wili stand.— How must such a system uperate. first, on (he (Irfowent interests, and secondly, on the differout seuione of the country! We will assume, that a poriiculnr niauufucturn cannot be produced id the country, within fifty per cent, as cheaply at.home, us the same article could be obtained from abroad; nod dial a duty which, With charge*, should be equal to about fifty per-cent, tuurpblolotely necessary to introduce and to suttaia it. Sucli n ikuy must operate u» a tax on every other class in ^he com munity, for the bonefit of the manufactu* rerj and Supposing it 10 be imposed, not for revenue, hut protection, would- bo a double tax. Suppose Ihe value of the im ported article <0 be n million- of dollais, the duly would be half a million ; and if the protection nmoun.’od to an equal sum, here would be a tux nf a million of dollars imposed upon iho wlnde people, to secure u bounty of hall a million to one portion of them. Rut it is said the bounty is not confined ..to the manufacturers—that oth er classes participate. 1 admit that thorp it a circle embraced within Ihe range of the manufacturing influence, that partake of tbh benefits ot Iho system. Farmers, in the neighbourhood, who supply the oper atives with food—mechanics, who con strue! tlte buildings and machinery—cler gymen, physicians, lawyers, and others, who make up a manufacturing village, all come iu for a share of the gains, and con stitute, in iket, the protected clan, which enioy the benefit*, of lire system.; but-aM other classes in the commbmty must oh Vi* ously bo laid wider Contribution, to make that a profitable, which would otherwise be an unprofitable pursuit; and, in the case assumed, would -be tnxod to the a- uiouut of one million ef dollars, to secure to the favored class a bounty of half, n million. Now sucrose, Sir, such a sys- loqi us this to bo extended to til the cot tons, woollens, iron uud augur, made In a- ny country, and we will lake tlint country' to be (lie United Stales. ,W« Will sup pose, further, that cottons could not be profitably manufactured without, a protec ting duty of from twenty-five to an hun dred per cent.—woollens from forty-five to two hundred per cenl.-rifon from otto hundred, to two hundred per cent.— sugar from one hundred to ono hundred and fifty per ceqt.; and that ihese duties wore nccordiogly missed on Ihese sever al articles, (amounting in the whole tq the sum of nine millions of dollars annually :) that, in cotwequeuce of those duties,, the protection on fll the cottons manufactured in the country was equal to throe cents a yurd, und am'onnted to six millions of dol- Turs per annum—woollens to eight millions —iron to one million—and sugar a million und a half—pioducing, as the result of tho whole system, a mg of pine millions on the foreign article to secure a bounty .of six teen n.tffions nnd a half to the home man ufacturers. I have supposed protection to bo the exclusive object of this system, and it then clearly follows, that all other classes would bo tnxod twouty-five millions of dollars per ammnLln order to secure to the favored class a protection of sixteen millions. The Government would; In deed, receive its nine millions ; bet it would bo an aggravation of diet evils of the system, that this noioaHt should be levied token it weu not vanted.ia.order to socure tiie protected classes in their mo nopoly. The rates of duties which 1 have here ussumod, ora those now ac tually. imposed on the protected orti' cles; (nod which h is proposed to re tain as ooseutinl to protection,) sod the amount of the protection enjoyed by tlie manufacturers is stated at tlio very low est that has ever been estimated by any person who has undertaken to examine ihf subject. If yob auppoao half of the duly here staled to be necessary for rev* rmm this would not diminish ibe weight of the burden, though St would lesson »• ■hot efiiem the Iniuatico of the tax,-imd i gwmlemen mbka whm doducifoas thaw plMM, either from Mge duly imposed m •he bounty received; and it will make no ivr?. BCe . 1 T ha,ev " r tie prmiple*- Wnotherte be one million or twenty, just ae fnr ns the syitcmjfo protective in !• ch i racier, and imposes any tax upon tho foreign article, and affords any protection whatever to the domestic, is,the systom a tax imposed upon the other classes lo ran* der profitable tlte industry of lira manu facturers. And when this .mx amount*, •«s it itnquostionnbly does in (ho cam be fore us, m the very lowest estimate, id twenty or thirty millions a year, it be comes a scheme of monstrous injustice sod oppression. Now let ns trace this system one step.farther. Suppose such a system applied to a country of a homo geneous character, with tho same cnpaci* ty for manufacturing every where, end that manufacturing estphlishmenik should cob*' Mfoneutly be equally diffused through ova ry section. The.' benefits and the bar- tlions of dm system would, in such a esse, fall equally Upon every .portion pfHho court* !ry, ihougli not upon tho differeot inter ests of the $tale. It has been said that if tlie prAfits of manufactures were ra isedby. such a system, ebov*4he average, of the prefits of the whole rotpmunity, that the labor and capital absorbed in other pur suits would flow into tlie new employment? atid that.the. whole would uitimawly bo o- qualixed, Admit that in process orf tirod,' tips might bo tho rosuli; yet it could bo# lake place at once, beenuse men esnuos transfer at pleasure their labor arid capi tal Irom their accustomed pursuits to otn- arg. But if the profits should,be thus ultir mately equalled in n.pnriiculnr commuiii*- ty » jet if the favored pursuit was only rendered profitable by the protection ex- * tended to ii-rit is cicnr that the sclicmq would result fit an aggregate lot* to tkS tokofe. communi/yrrotfoal to the foil amount of the bouuiv. I have assumed the cose of an unprofitable pursuit being rendered profitable by the proteetiqg system—for, lo'auy other case the rysfpm is wholly in- " applicable. If tlio domestic manufactu rer Can make his goods os cheaply uud sup* ply the domestic market on as favorably terms as they could, be obtained from.a- bronil, iheso it i» clear that no protection whatever would be necessary, It may be thut in ihe very infancy of a manufacture, on its first introduction into a country, a small protection for u short time might hasten its advancement, but at must, tho. withholding of such protection could have no other effect than to delay its introduc tion for a few years—for the existence in any.country, of unemjiloyod capital, and individual sagacity und enterprise, suf ficient to diroet it prudently, would soon, lead to the introduction qf every branch oj nutntifaclip-et, for which such country was really prepared. But this stiige of infancy once passed, it is preposterous i io if Ik ol ilia necessity of protecting any article that cnii really be made as cheaply at horaa as it c«n be obtained from abroad-rand to as* son, tliat io reduce sueh proteetkm to twenty or thirty per cent.; would bo ruin ous (o any manufactu iodustry can only be profithMy employ and in exchanging their agricullaral pro ductions, for the very foreign article» which enter info competition with tie de- ntesfic manufacture*, ini which are heav ily taxed for lbe prdtectiop of the Isttar —thaUhe etttkt or such tsx is ool only to interrupt the Idtercourso and hnpsir tho profits of their industry, but that the agri cultural section is thereby cxjioted to tho imminent hazard of having the market for their;productions entirely cut off, and fi nally, to cap tho climax of this injustice, that lire taxes levied on the foreign arti cles, aro expended almost exclusively In the favored region, and you then hatrq* Mr. President, the whole case af th* south spread open before you. Their pur suits are altopeiber agricultural—they CSO- not change them—they canaot transfer their lubor aud capital to (hie favored re gion—they cannot find a market Tor their productions, except by tachbO|iog them for tlie very foreign manufactures which nro taxed almost to .prohibition, end the taxes thus raised ere expended m other suctions. Is there a man in this assembly who can Uy’his hand upon bis heart, and say (hex ins a just and equal system! It miy be sold, however, that all this Is merely the result of. oer peculiar coodi- tioo, aud the nature of our pursuits. It# not so, Sir. All wo osk, is to hi let • any manufacture, is to admit atoacO that such article canuol be profitably made at homo, and consequently ihst it can on ly bo sustained at tho expense of the other interests in the community. Now Sir, lot us Suppose another case, and it is uobsff- pily (lie very case which now exists ie that u. Slates. We will suppose an extensive Stale*, qountry agricultural, arid incapable of chssgiqg H* pursuits, and that the other portion em brace* within its limits, all the mnnufachl- res and manufacturing capacities of tho wlaile cotiniry. Th* bounty would ihoA be exclusively enjoyod by ond section, an* die other w6uld share only in the burthen* of the system. To Make the ioeqaallty stilj greater, it is Only necessary to sop- pose that tlie agricultural section is not on ly incapable of manufacturing fet homo, but is prevented by insuperable Obstacles,
