Clay v
Hotnlvcd, Tltftt the ogixlitlg Julios u-
pon articles in;ported front foreign coun
tries, and not Touting intd composition
iviili similar articles, made or produced
whliin tlio United States, ought to be
forthwith abolished, except, the duties on
wines and silks, ami that they ought to ho
reduced.
Resolved, That tho Committee on Fi
nance report a bill accordingly.
Mr. Ilayne moved to amend the first
resolution, liv- striking out nil after (He
tvbrd “ countries” in tlui second line, and
insert the followtng:
“ lie so reduced, that the imiount of the
public revenue shall he sufficient todofiny
the expenses of governincnt, according to
their present scnle, after tho payment of
the public debt; and that, allowing n rea
sonable time for the gradual rrdltriion of
tho present high duties on the articles
coming into competition with sianttu- ;t ti
des made or produced in the United States,
the duties bit ultimately equalized, so that
the duties on no articles shall, ns com*
pitied wph the value of that article, vary
'materially from the genetnl average."
Mr. Ilayne addressed the Senate in
support of his propo.-iliotj as follows:
Tho Sunntot from Kentucky, (Mr.
Clay,) commenced Ins remarks a few days
ago, by complaining of the advances of
ago, and mourned tlio decay of his elo
quence, so eloquently, ns to prove that it
exorbitant profit on his par-
fo can only reiterate tiirmcr
assurances of .sing every exertion to promote
the interest of our morcitntilo friends in the ex
tent amt variety of our stock, the Intent us of oar pri
ces, and the skill tsttt! core of anr packers, depend, i
ing upon o freo-trado ns die only system which,

that the protecting system couM not, by
possibility, have contributed ill the slight-
est degree to produce this result. One
would suppose, indeed, that the very-lnsY
merit * Itich would be ascribed to this sy*^
lent, wits its tendency to fill the “ public
coffers.” It is onquostiouobly ta a tmiff,
arrnnged and adjusted with u single eye to
revenue, that wo are to look for such a re
sult. The object ol n protecting tariff, ns
such, certainly is to diminish or exclude im-
|iOrtntions, and of eonrae to lesacn the n-
mount of the revenue desired from duties.
The vefy end *nd aim of such a system
is, to substitute for the imported nrlicle,
paying taxes to government—the dome*,
tic article paying none —to transmute the
doty into n bounty to the manufacturers^,
and, just so (ar ns litis end is attained-^
that is to say, just ao far ns the tariff K
protective, must it cut off the public reven
ue. Do w* not all remember, that tlio
leading argument in favor of the protecting
provisions of tho tariff of 1824, was, that
they were necessary, H to pn; down a ru
inous foreign competition!" and did not
one of the futhars of that bill publicly de
clare, “-that the vita) principn) of Ihn sys
tem was, that the nation slioidd eon>nt.iml
its own consumption, and that wheii tte
nation did not command its own consump
tion, importations and imposts would
ceusd.” Sir, there are two distinct
features in the tariff of 1824—reven
ue and proieeiion. It is tho former
that 1ms filled your coffers nnd pnid offlho
public debt; nhd, so far ns the bitter hr*
was still in full vigor. He'tl.eu went on, i ,T ” " ,0 '"7 r f ™

Has this part of tho policy contributed to
fill your coffers? Sir, the case,is loo plain
for further argumont, and tried: by lilts
lest, the polity must be utterly condemitid.
The uext test liy which tile gentlftmau
proposes to try tiiis system, is “ the rick
fruits which it has scattered over the
country." Sir, where arc they to bo
found! Is it in tho West! 1 appeal to
tho gentlemen from that quarter. We
have heard n great deal of the flourish
ing condition of the manufacturing estab
lishments elsewhere; but where ttre lite
manufacturing villages, the joint slock,
companies,the splendid dividends,and oth
er evidences of prosperity to be found in
tho West ? I submit it to the candor of
the gentlemen, whether the benefits of tho
protecting system, so fa,- as the wsi is
concerned, do not still rest in hope—
whether the system would be sustained u
day, if it were not for its supr^osed connec
tion With Internal improvements—wheth
er it is not indebted for its popularity, in
that quarter, to the unhappy, the fatal mar
riage between the tariff ami internal im
provements—a union which 1 yet hope to
sec dissolved. It was a left handed—aw
rience of all powerful nnd prosperous tin -
tioiis.” Sir, we meet theso positions ai
one* by assorting, on onr part, that tho
protecting system stands self-condcnshed;
condemned in our own country, hv the
deitdation which has followed in Us train,
ami the discontents it has produced—con
demned by the experience of all tho world
nnd the almost unanimous opinion of en
lightened men in modern times. And
now, having fair ly joined issue with the I unlaw ful marriage, and surely those whom
gentleman, wn might put ourselves upon God hath not joined, man may put asun
tho country, ami submit the ettso, without
argument; nor should I have titty fears fpr
the result, iftlre Issue was to be tried and
decided by un impartial tribunal, free
from the Histui-bing influence of popular
prejudice nnd delusion, and tho strong bins
of interests, personal, pecuniary, and politi
cal. Uut situated as we nre, I feel and ac
knowledge the necessity of making out our
case to the conviction of this assembly,
I and the satisfaction of tho country. We
are seeking relioffrom an abiding evil—re
dress from un existing wrong. We cannot
stand where wo arc. Wo cannot, like’ the
gentleman from Kentucky, rest on mere
unsupported assertions. Wo must sub
mit onr proofs and maintain our positions
if we can. It is greatly to he regretted,

dor. Sir, there are doubtless some flour-'
ishitrg manufactories scattered here nnd
them throughout fhe western country—
chiefly-confined, however, to situations be
yond the rcuch of foreign competition, and
owing nothing to the protecting system.—
But tha west has not been rendered pros
perous by these establishments. I ap
peal confidently to their, actual condition
ut this time. With regard to the gentle
man’s own State, I will apply a test which
cannot deceive us. When tho policy or
'24 wns before Congress, the Senator from
Kentucky stood forth as its champion, and
it was my lot to attempt to answer Ins ar
guments. It is true, sir, that his speech
was made in tlio otiier House, mid initio
on this floor; but his argament had been
sent forth as the manifesto *f tho party—
it was printed in pamphlet nnd laid on tho
tables of the Senators, and, embodying tho
views of tho tarifl'party, it was impossible
for mo to pass it over. I well remember
therefore, that, on that occasion, the gen
tleman argued, that Kentucky wns to par
ticipate in the protecting system bv ruisy
inp large quantities of hemp, nnd supply
ing the southern Slates with cotton bag-
ting,—and hB s'rongly insisted that she'
tvas thou only prevented from so doing, by
the ruinous competition of the inconsider
able Scotch towns of Inverness and Dm-’
dee. And whnt it it, Sir, that wo hour
now— after tho lapse of eight year*! The
old *tory_ repeated, Kentucky still de.
In vhe first place, then,tho gentleman ire- pritted of the- benefit* of the protecting
