Speech of .Mr. Nesbit, ol Georgia.
tin the Treasury Tiote Hit'. Delivered in the House
of Representatires. January --ZJ, IS4I.
Mr Uiaimmii < —l voted during the list session 1
of Congress for the issue of Treasury notes, i
was then satisfied of the power of the Legislature
to eontract a loau upon tins plan. I am still con
vinced of the power. I ran note sec no constitu
tional objection to it. Having then presented ray
views upon this subject, to that argument 1 have
nothing to add, and from it nothing to subtract. 1
was willing then to exercise the power, avowing
that, because ot the seductive. ea«y, and deceptive
character of ol raising money, it should
be resorted to with great care, and onlv in cases of
extreme necessity. Such a ease, I believed, was
then presented. The (loverunicut, as was con
ceded on every hand, upon the verge of bank
ruptcy. She could not wait for any less rapid
measure of extrication than the prompt one pro
posed. 1 was constrained to come to the rescue of
the Treasury,and relieve it from monetary ami po
litical dishonor. Tin* obligations of patriotism,
irrespective as ail party views, icquircd it. In a
like case of emergency, my conduct will boos
like character. Whether therefore, 1 shall rote
for the bill now before the committee, depends up
on the necessity which may be shown now u> ex
ist to raise live millions of dollars at once. It is
not questioned that the llovernment will need this
sum in addition to the revenues which w ill accrue
Irom all ord—lary sources during the yea l is it,
TheChairmaVi of the Ways ami Means i'.Mr.'.Tones)
admits that there w ill he adelieienrv, iwi calls it
temporary, and assures us that it’iT In- rcirn-
I’urscJ in the last quarters income. The Set v
tiny of the Treasury takes similar grounds. In
deed the very proposition of theotileers of finance
to borrow money, assumes both the waul and the
inability ol the usu.il resources to supply it. To
justify my support, however, I shall require
the gentlemen to show that the exigencies el the
treasury arc so impt*rious that they cannot await
the process of a penuanent and wise system of
revenue. This they will scarcely be able to show:
lor however deeply the Government may have
been involved by the absurd anti temporizing ex
pedients and experiments of Mi. \an Bmen and
his iriends, I believe it mav be relieved without
resort to a measure of always doubtful oxpedien
ey.
Mr. t h airman, 1 do not propose to discuss I lie
Imoncial administration of the parly nov expiring.
1 do not intend to show up its errors of theory,
and its infidelity in practice—to demonstrate the
existence ol a national debt —the amount, or the
mode of its origin and augmentation. 1 do not
propose to anah/p th t > my sic -and oracular report
ol the Secretary, whose external aspect i* fair,
and whose secret meanings are so various and preg -
nant. Other gentlemen have done all this. Ih u
the Government is iu debt is a postvlatt—the o;.i>
mooted points are the amount, and the mode of
payment. Ihe amount has been variously estima
ted irom Sto lb million dollar'. It i* to t:;o man
ner in which the money should be raised to dis
charge this debt and also for rise usual mnpusc** of
the Government, that 1 propose addressing myself.
This inquiry is important, b«vau*e it in v olves the
permanent fmaiicrai system of the coming admin
istration; and to Southern statesmen, the vita!
question, how far and iu what form the revenue is
to be raised by duties on imports, idie tarili’. the
compromise act,the rights and feelings ol the South
*re therefore brought into the di'Ciissic-n. I pun
the question of a revison of the tar it)*, nor a* to
the origin, effect, and maintenance of the act of
-d March, 1533, known as the compromise, would 1
have said one word, but for the course of argument
and remark indulged in by my friend from South
I Carolina,(Mr. Rhett.) To him 1 hope to be able
IB to reply successfu! Iy.
Sn , as a member of the Harrison party, 1 would
discard shifts and tin incial subterfuges. j am for i
doptiug, in the very onset of the new administration
a system which will pay the debt entailed upon
the Stale, and keep her out of debt; a system that
shall be equal to a stippiy in a uniform way of all
tire wants of an economical administration. The
reliance of tin-Government for revenue is upon
Ist. The public domain; 2d, direct taxation:
and 3d, Should the usage of the Govern
rnent for past years, in relation to the piiblia lands
continue to be its policy toy years to come, and
| hey should be brought into market on the most
■Havorable terms, reasoning from the j ast to the
three million dollars must be the extent of
from that quarter. The expenditures u s the
ovemmcntca4»ot fall below twenty millions an-
V very small part, therefore of the an-
wants of the State can be realized from the 1
domain. Rut sir, how lone shall v,-e receive J

his sophistries in the beautiful robes of genius, and
give* to them emphasis and impressiveness by the
fiery sroai of hii advocacy, fie is still an unsafe
leaders, because the past ha* proven that, with the
same masterly ability, he ha* sustained the most
antagonist policy. He is a channel in", and lias Hie
infirmity of being unconscious of it, or the hardi
hood to deny it in the face of the most demonstra
tive proof. His qourse is still a blazing track in
the firmament of politics; like the meteor having
no established orbit, but wheeling madly athwart
the firmament
My idea of State rights is, to deny to the Gov
ernment all powers not expressly granted ; and to
exercise fearlessly and freely those that are. Nor
am I willin", with metaphi*ieal subtleties, to refine
upon the conceded power* until their utility 1* rea
soned aw* ay. I’hen, sir, the power to lay impost?
is express!v granted. lam now ready, under tin*
restrictions I propose to suggest, to use it.
Before entering upon this branch of my argu
ment, allow me to digress but fora moment for the
purpose of say ing that the wasteful cxpeiii.ilme*
of this administration a.c to be attributed, in part,
to .1 careless,. . n<; ?ly partisan, s» lection ot dis
bursing agents ; and that Ihi* G fully proven in tne
va*t sums expended in the conduct id the Semin
ole war. The prdxitnity of my own State to the
Florida line, and the part her cili/en* have borne
in the stilleiing? of tiiat di*a»lums and doomed con
flict, constrain me to know and condemn ii> man
agement. My own Male has not been exempt
from savage incursion; her villages leave been rn
some instances burnt, and her household* butcher
ed. To us the parent Government has extended
no protection, flurov.u chivalry has repelled the
100.
Vs to Flori«la, after years ol sutlenng, she is still
the victim of Indian cult and cruelly ; of federal
1;c •::*.potency or carelessness. Her lands zro mi
ttiled,mid her tropical fields yield no Hints. Ihe
war-whoop wake* the slumbei ol inlaucy unto
•loath ; manhood and femality are alike dcu-ueele**.
1 he cottage ot the woodsman and the palace ol ? li*
rich planter crundne before the torch 01 the in

mingled with her yet imcouquoied soil. And >till
the Vemassee warrior linger* in his lair, 'fhe >cm
ino'e hordes still roam *»'»•! her plains, o« *knik in
her everglade*. The war still rages, and the j eo

they seem, of late, to attract no attention, and com

the heart us her rulers. Money enough has been
expended iu toinjueiing these n»a;.■edma savage*,

Nor, sir, are the import* from and exports to

i l!i“ time has arrived when tiie conditior.sfavorable

guarantees I call your attention to one, sir, of
v/*t moment, which, if failhfnliy observed, vvill
quiet foreveiglhe CM itiug and dangerous topic of
proUetive duties. One of the covenant : of the con
tract 1 . that “ until tin- 3Ul’r. June. ! v 12,the duties

TNovv, sir, you perceive, that by viiture of tho
compromise act, il i* the solemn pledge of the par
lies thereto, that, from and after the 30th June
IS J 2, no dutio- shall be laid but for revenue. Not
only so : tn that the amount of such revenue shall
be hunted to the wauls 01 an economical adminis
tration.
The principle of protection i* discarded. No one
can ri*r* up after id and a- k for piuteelion. 1 tie
North is esloped. The South •an point to the
agreement, and demand that duties shall be limited
to purposes of revenue: not only so; but that the
revenue shall not exceed the limits ol a Just econo
