THE TARIFF IN SOUTH CAROLINA


Can it be wondered at, that the great mass. the
all takers and thinkers of the population of that
state should be so run mad upon this subject when
we hnd such man Mr.. McDufie asserting that
tax OF forty per cent upon importations is tanta
mount to tax of forty bales of cotton in the hun
dred, on the planter? A proposition so utterly alb
surd, is not to be attributed want of undcrstan
ding in Mr.. McDuffic, but his contempt for the
understanding of his hearers: Yet of such stu is
the Antariff Notification party of that State COM
pc ied We have better opinion of the good
sense of our readers, however they may differ from
us, than to believe it possible, they can give Mr.
McDufFe credit even for honest error of opinion
1t by such gross impositons, that South Carroll
ma is kept up to fever heat. What! is all the cot
ton of Soutia Carolina czportcd7 Does she pay
tax upon her whole consumption, because her i'm
ports may be taxed at forty per cent? Is there no
profit upon capital and labor7 Does she con-
sumo nothing but what is imported All these sew
eral questions must be answered in the affirmative
before Mr. McDuffie's proposition can be maintain
ed with any semblance of truth.
