and with which the existing tariff abounds. Nor
could they very well, from tho nature of the
subject, have adopted in their system the honest
and open handed principle of sd psiorsm duties, such
az the democratic party advocates. But the partic-
ular kind of duties levied under this tariff devised TO
regulate the exactons Of the priests, was, undoabsed
ly, specific. That to say, the church permitted the
priest absolve let the offender of, for so many
dollars, pounds sterling matter whatth denom-
ination,) for murder, much for robbery, so much
for thef SO much for adultery, &C., &C., &c Such
the original meaning, and such the first authentic
application of the word tariff, in its modern signh-
cation. The history of the matter is curious, inter-
estng, and significant and proves that the fallen an
gel has never been restored that, with the addi-
tional cognomen of protective, under the guardian
ship of the hgh-priests of the MANUFACTURING MO-
NopoLY, it has mnstered to wicked uses, as il did
under the care of the ancient priests of the Roman
Catholic church.
After giving the origin and application, both an
Glen, and modern, of the word tariff designed, in
this communication, to define the difference between
tariff tax and direct tax; but have extended it
to a length SO much greater than expected when !
commenced, that feel bound to respect he patience
of my readers, and will defer until my aexk this
branch of my subject. sNy
