United States, and therefore, the tax was total

The Committee of Ways and Means reported
that the System to protect Manufactures and In

As General Jackson can only be elected Presiden
through the votes of the Southern interest, and BY
seducing the people of the Middle and Western
States from the duty they owe to themselves ant
their chdren's children, the quid pro quo the South

evnced by the length they have shown they woul

made regarding Manufactures, which they did no
