Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Remarks Upon a Plan for the Total Abolition of Slavery in the United States An era is now approaching for the accomplishment of this important object, which, from the nature of things, can never so conveniently occur again. The anticipated national fund of surplus revenue seems now to have become a subject of great consideration throughout the union, and the curtailment and distribution of it, a source of much excitement. The southern portion of the United states strenuously contend that the surplus revenue, raised through the instrumentality of the Tariff, after a sufficiency to defray the expenses of government, is unconstitutional, and materially detrimental to them; they therefore formidably protest against it. The manufacturers, and other large classes of the north, finding the Tariff very beneficial, contend with equal zeal for its continuance. This subject has brought the two great southern and northern interests into an unfortunate collision, producing much agitation. According to the restrictive principles of foreign trade, injuriously operating upon us, it is difficult to say how far we are not obliged to keep up a counteracting policy, consistent with the dignity of our country, without being obliged to raise more revenue than is merely necessary for the expenses of government; if this is unavoidable, it then becomes important to so dispose of the surplus revenue as may be least objectionable to all parties, and best calculated to allay the unhappy controversies existing in the country.
