humble opinion, are to he found in that

which constituted the burden of his la

■ if our people cannot have their share of

is what the gentleman from Ohio [Mr.

Well, sir, ! think it “plain” myself! it
is easily understood, it says give us
“office,” and we are for you. Refuse,
and lie tells us that “there is a point where .
neglect will be remembered, and where

Mr. Chairman, it is extremely natural
in such men to hate “a southern chival
ry!” There is nothing in common be
tween men entertaining and acting on
such principles and “a southern chival
ry.” i ft,here is a State whicii has some
grounds for complaint about the distribu
tion of offices of late, it is Alabama. Or
the officers in the newly mounted rifle
regiment, she did not get one. Ohio, [ '
believe. g,n three. Os the recent army 1
appoiiititienfs, Alabama has received hut ;
‘two subordinate ones; while Ohio, 1 he- j
lieve, has recOved nine, and some of
them of a high grade. At this ciiv, I
though the (Jiue Book puts down four I
eleiks, I believe as from Alabama, vet |
1 am told by the oldest members of our i
delegation that but one is in truth an AU -
abama appointment.
But, sir, if Alabama ha.i not one, the i
fact, howsoever disagreeable, would not ;
change an iota of her pi inciples—would i
not influence her course on legslaiion 1
hero would not cause hei to abandon,
and not only to abandon, but to attack :
the administration, as long as it was con
; ducted according to the standard of great
; principles, by which it was elected.. But
| what particular claim has Ohio on the
administration, that her delegates hero
i should flare up, because “office” was not
doled out to her? When has she sup
ported the democratic party in its presi
- (icnlial election? Certainly not of bale,
in 1840 she voted against ns. In 1544
she voted against us. Polk did not receive. !
an electoral vote from Giro! And yet a !
member from Ohio chooses to dictate to
him wiio be shall appoint Tor office! and if
■ lie acts independently of that pi offered !
advice, Ohio, forsooth, declares, through '
him, tin-1 she will not “lick the hand that
smites her!”
Sir, in what ».«? Ohio democratic, that
>he should even advise with us as to our '
legislation here? On the hank question,
dead as that issue is elsewhere, her peo
ple are divided at home? On the lines
lion of taxation her delegation here re
fused to go with us, hut declare that they

On the question of expenditure, no Slate
—no party anywhere •> more unsound—
nor extravagant than the Ohio democra'-

not a cent to be expended for'national de
fence—but they want harbors dug out
where nature has made none—bars re
inovedj rivers cleared, and canals dug,
and roads built, with federal funds! The
doctrine of interna! improvement's by the
general government, avowed by Mr. Clay,
had a limit—lt was bounded by the
amount of one instalment ot the surplus
revenue. The doctrine of the Ohio de
moeraev : s as unlimited as the ability o!

course, during this session, on the har

Our views of constitutional c’ufv are
[ dissimilar; and as a watchman. s--t iicro
j by a portion of the people of the South,
j to warn them of the true state of things.
! inform them that they are hut as sheen
in the hands of the shearers, A large
portion of the western representatives ere
sound; hut as a wjiole, they in their ex
travagant system of expenditure for
works of local internal,improvement, act
harmoniously with the Middle Slates,and
East, who desire high taxes. The manu
facturers say so thes* internal improve
me -J men, “you want money to build har
bors, dig canals, and" clean out rivers.
We will vole it to you. if you will aid us
in collecting it o/T of imports.” For all
practical purposes the bargain Is struck!
The South, exporting sixty out of every
one hundred millions of exports, conse
quently pays sixty out of every hundred
dollars* of taxes thus raised; and, as ■>!
have elsewhere shown, since 1791, Ohio
alone has received of this sum -two mil
lions seven hundred and ninety-nine thou
sand dollars for purposes of internal im
provement, while the entire .South, in
cluding .Maryland and Kentucky, lias re
ceived but three millions and twenty thou- j
sand dollars for that purpose! How long* i
are we to bear this odious, unjust, and -ru
inous discrimination? And above all,
how long are we of the South to go har
moniously into convention, together with
these men, who, instead of sympathizing
with us in principle, aml endeavoring to
aid ns in administering the government
according to sound constitutional doc
trines, hut Combine with us to organize a
pat ty, which shall enable them to control
the'offices, ana which keeps the South
merely to fool the hill of expenses? It is
a question solemnly put to the people 1
represent. Jam no candidate for public
favors, Thave resigned the commission
1 hold, and do not expect again to be in
public life, not at least fora long series of
years. I speak therefore as a disinter
ested man to my constituents, and for
them; and if i know their feeling and
spirit, I now tell these gentlemen that we
ot the South have determined no longer
to meet in friendly convention for party
purposes, men who will tax us for protec
tion, and expend our money »br wild and
extravagant schemes of interna! improve
ment. When we meet again it must be,
not io pass resolutions, clothed in words
1 which hide, and do not convey meaning,
: and which can be used as a screen for
| every political vagary, but to define prin
ciples of action which we shall mutually
: feel an ardent desire to promote. I went, !
; (and I may thus far speak for the South,) j
1 principles more clearly denned, and bet
i ter act' d up to, before ever 1 can again
j hold political communion with men, who
I now seem to be of every political hue?
| We make no demand of offices. We do
1 not deem that the government was made
|to distribute offices. All we demand is a
sound and strict administration of it upon
j constitutional views. We will hereaUnr
meet in convention with none who will
I not aid us in tin’s. We say to you ail, if
we can but receive your votes to engraft
great principles upon the administration
of the,affairs of the Union, you may re
ceive ail its offices. As for myself, I have
never asked for one, and am willing on
these terms to endorse an application for
every man north of Mason and Dixon’s
.line.
With these sentiments we have come
I here, hoping, that out of sixty democratic
i majority in this House we should be able
; to gather up at least a majority of one in
' favor of the jepea! of the tariff of 1842.
! It is said, however, that wg are too strait
-1 laced—-too uncompromising. Not so; for
we are ready to meet gentlemen m sup
port of the hill of the Committee of Ways
and Means, which lays an average duty
of twenty-five per cent, upon imports,
and which gives an advantage of a duty
■of thirty per cent. This is in itself a 1
compromise, and farther we cannot go.
We entrench ourselves on the basis of the
compromise act. and the known principles
of nur party, and demand of gentlemen
their support of the bill. We are in favor
of it as a great move towards relieving
the -country'from the odious discrimina
tions and inequalities produced by the act
of 1542. That act is “extravagantly
protective” in its rate of duties and in the
manner of collecting them.
It remits duties on one fourth oi the im-
From July 1, 1644, to
July 1. 1845, imports paying duties
amounted to 895,100,724, while imports
free of duty amounted'to $22,147,340.
.Most of"these free articles are articles
used by. and necessary lor, the manufac
turers; such as dye-woods, wood unman'tu
1 factored, uu wrought burr-stones, unman
; ufactored cork, unwrought clay, old pew.
i ter. brass, copper, adhesive fell for sheath
ing sinus, Arc. Depriving the treasury of
J the revenue which would accrue from a
i fair lax on these articles, as well as on
tea and coffee, of emutse creates a demand
■ for higher revenue duty on other articles,
which thus- gives a designed and unjust
protect ion.
That act collects one-third of all the re
, Venue from hut Three articles, and those
articles of abaci .itefiecessity, to win from
duties on iron, woollen and cotton goods.

Anct yet the list o{ dutiable articles oc
cupy many closely printed pages in the
report of the Secretary*of the Treasury.
The whole amount of duties collected
during ths.t period was 630.818,854.
That act is “prohibitory” i« its ten
dency, as Mr. Buchanan declared when
he voted for it, end as the Secretary of the
Treasury informs us in his statistical re
view* of Sts operations. W bile the amount
raised mom it ts annually decreasing, as
every year cl its operation has shown,
the average rate of duty is decreasing.
In 1543 that average was 37 per cent.,
(leaving oif fractions;) in 1844. rt was 33
per cent.; and in 1545, ii was 29 per cent.
This proves regularly decreased Importa-'

i hat act 'ays s large portion of duties
on false principles-—assumes false values
tor purposes ot taxation—specifics and
mini mums are resorted to to cover up its
iniquities from the gaze of the people.
Mr, VV Hiker says that during the last year
the average rale of ad valorem duties was
only 29 .67, and that of specific ditties
was 41.30, the revenue arising from, trie
former exceeded that from the latter!—
showing the enormous prohibition conse
quent upon i.he higher specific duties.
Mminiums are thus described by Mr.
Walker:
“Miriiranrna are ft fictitious value, assumed by
law, instead of tbs real value; and the operation
of ali mini mums may be illustrated by a single ex
ample, Thus by the tarifT of 1842, a duty of 30
per cent, ad valorem is levied on all manufactures
of cotton; but the Jaw foi ihcr provides that cotton
goods 'no; dyed, colored, printed, or stained, not
exceeding in value twenty cents per sonar* yard,
shall be valued at twenty cents per square yard.*
If, then, the real value of the cheapest cotton goods
is but four cent;-, a square yard, it is placet! by the
law at ti>e false, value of twenty cents per square
yerd, arid the duty levied 4n the fictitious value—
ra riny \t five times higher on the cheap article con
i sunned by the poor, than upon the. fine article pur
by the more wealthy.”,
That set also discriminates most odi
ously for the manufacturer against the
larmer, the mechanic, ihs merchant.
And yet the gentleman from Massachu
setts, [Mr, Winthrop,] who addressed
the committee some days since, in a very
ingenious speech, and whom 1 always
listen to with interest and pleasure, would
warn the American laborer against the
hollow-hearted sympathies of the de
mocracy? What course is be pursuing,
a*r, who sounds this warning? is he for
throwing off the shackles from the limbs
of labor, which have been transmitted
upon it through centuries? Is he for do.
mg away restrictions, and for opening
the field for labor? Is he for inviting the
commerce o; a teaming world to ourselves,
and opening here a market where the ■
broadest compel ion shall exist——where }
jvery article of luxury and- necessity
shall be brought to adorn the mansion of
the nch, and to render comfortable the
habitation of the poor? Is he for breaking
dov, the barriers which legislation, has
erected to turn the tide of labor into but
a tew channels, where choked, and em
barrassed, and distressed,lt shall succumb
to necessity and become a prey to capital?
Is he for inviting the pining seeker for
employment to the broad and* almost
boundless pubii&.domsin of lbs West,
where want dies, and comfort and Inde
pendence spring from its grave? No, sir.
None of this is {» be found in the system
die gentleman advocates. The old Eng
lish system, which has insidiously crept
into the country sines we formally de
clared ourselves free from unjust English
I restrictions, is tbs.system hete advocated
by the gentleman and his friends, and
which they have improperly* dubbed “the
American system.” As in England, its i
policy is to keep hinds at high value, so as
to keep 'hem out ofthe hands of the lab
| prer. Hence wc find these high-tariff
■ nion ever opposed to a reduction of the
■ price ofthe public lauds and to ore-on:p
--j dons. An eminent instance of dTs-was
i Mr. Clay, the auiisqY of‘his miscalled'
; “American system,” who spoke'of those
pre-emption claimants as “land pirates.”
j Lands being held at such enorm »us cost
; in England, and their rent corresponding
j ly high, but few can a (lord to be farmers,
arid the great mass of labor ;‘= consequent
ly thrown upon other employ men is.-
Hence, fie avenues of industry being few,
: and labor being plenty, its great com.
i petition brings d o n wages to a low point
: —that of mere existence. This is what
is needed and desired by the manufactu
rers. Bre ;.I befog nigh, laud-owners are
, b-.'.on.e . Brrau being high,' and iuboi
sape’•abundant, labor is ccmpeT.S;!. to sup
sort 1 f«r, to ‘work at matKifacturera* prices;
. The v dole policy ofthe system is to pro.
■ dace the same &tate or tid ,gs hero. 1: the
high-:?: :*f .ncq caa hucoocJ in rets,ruing
| emigration tu the West, by keeping as
i high as possible our public lands, and
I P" rucularly our poorer and therefore in- i
1 tnnsicaliy cheaper Sands, they will to
‘ha* dogroe throw r greater amount of
laborers dank upon the already crowded •'
avenues of industry in the manufacturing
Stales, This sta’e of tilings, of course,
will produce » greeter demand for em
ployment by these poor laborers. This
demand the manufacturer takes advan
tage ot and by it gets his work done at
cheeper rates than he otherwise wouM bo
able to do,
No*v, fj-fj mark the wide dinbrcnce
between site!', a system and the true Ame
rican system advocated by the demo
cracy-, In the first place, we. desire to
furnish r< currency with which the laborer
shall be paid, which shall not depend upon
the solvency and banking skill of any set
of capitalists—-a currency which shall
pass the world over—gold and silver —
upon which There shall be no loss—no
depreciation-—-and which no bicker can
I shave!
in the next place, ws desire ?p break
dov.-p. a system which has used the im
mense taxing power of this government
to enable the manufacturers of iron, wool,
cotton, sugar, and other necessaries of j
life, to sell those articles to us at a greater
profit than they would be able to do with
out being protected. We desire to do
away with this unjust interference ot the
government, and so to administer it that
all «!mll feel equally its benefits, and
none shall be exempted by favoritism and
protection from bearing their share of its
burdens.
In the next place, we desire so to grade
the prices of onr public lands, that the la
borer-can obtain them at their true value,
and they be thus brought within the
reach of the, poorest man in our oommu- j
nity. We would open by this process our i
almost boundless public domain, whose
virgin bosom invites honest labor to its
embrace, and which is destined to become
the mother of numerous powerful States,
to the poor of lha whole world. We
offer homes to the oppressed snip! us work
men of the oyer-crowded manufacturing
marts, where one fourth of the exertion of
thews and sinews will bring, as a reward
double the remuneration, as well as in
dependence, morally and physically.
We offer to them, when thus situated,
markets to sell in, where the merchants
ofthe world shall compete to buy of them.
By increasing the ability to consume
of these teeming millions, who shall thus
settle up «■ cheap end valuable public do

Such, Mr. Chairman, is a just compari
son ofthe two systems long advocated in
tills hail——the one endeavoring to use the
moneyed and taxing power of this gov
ernment to subject the working classes to
the capitalists of the country—a cold, cal
dilating, arithmetical machine, grinding
up thews, and sinews, and life itself, by
its labor-saving machines, and retailing
them out to the community hy weights
and measures; the other securing free
dom to industry, and independence to la.
