will then consist the boosted advantages Of
our condition, over that OF the people of
Europe We shall have lost its essentials.
Under the impulse of necessity as strong "a
that of war, national existence being at stake,
the People will submit to direct taxation
but, even during war, we have seen how
vexatious was system of taxation not half
as extensive as would be required rs sub
sdtutc for. our present revenue SYSTEM:
During peace, we have a familiar illustration
of the restiveness Of our people under direct
taxation, in the resistance made to it in the
honest state of Pennsylvania, which was
quelled only by military force. Taxes, which
require the aid of the military to enforce
their collection, can never recommend them
selves to our attention, because they must
be transitory in duration and deceptive in
amount. Laws, in this country, lose their
strength, and had better be explinged from the
statute book, Whenever they lose their moral
force. This evil is avoided by legislatipg
with the popular or national feeling, and not
against it. The substitution of direct taxation
for the impOsts would be to set the known
feelings of the People at defiance, and there
fore, If therefore only, would be highly mex
pedcrt.
:, The most extraordinary objection to the
present system ofrevenue, is that it is scarce
ly felt by the people. This we had always
supposed to be its best recommendation
| If there is any particular in which the beauty
of our free institutions is pre-eminently mani
| fest, it is, that here government exists io,tt-
out being felt. 1t is this which has been the
boast of Americans, and the admiration OF
foreigners. But this, it appears, is all wrong,
We have new sect ofpoliticians, who are
followed for their strange doctrines, of which
that of which we have been speaking is surely
the most strange.
We had not intended to pursue this sub
.Iect so far, and can only allude to the com
| parative cheapness of collection of the duties
on imports. 1t is consideration, certainly,
which ought not to be overlooked, but is
| quite subordinate to the moral and political
arguments which oppose the preference Of
| an internal to an external revenue for the or
binary purposes ofgovernment. Nor have
we time to dwell on this much stronger OBJ
| lection to a ponderous system of internal
revenue: that, as all the revenues for the
support of the state governments, are neees-
sarily and exclusively drawn from direct
taxation, the establishment ofsuch system
| by the general government must have the
effect to contract their financial means; To
| take from them the power of carrying on in
ternal improvements and to produce, final
| ly, tendency to the consolidation of all pow
er and authority in the federal government
consummation justly to be dreaded.
