Average per cent,


Thus il appears that the seven manufaotur.
ing States consumed two and three eighth times
per capita more of foreign products than the
seven agricultural States did; and hence they
paid two and three eighths times more than their
per capita share of the burdens or taxation for
the support of the General Government.
Notwithstanding these facts, the planting
States of the South, and those who &c with
them, are constantly complaining that the tar
ifs have all been made for the benefit Of the
workmen of the North.
In the north every man is a laborer, and ev-
erv man is proud of his pursuit. Every mau
there produces something for the benefit of the
whole, and every man is portion of the COM
munity. 1t is not so in the cotton States
There they have two classes-one the free and
the rich. aud the other the slaves, who do the
labor. | make these remarks because it is
constantly said by southern gentlemen that we
of the north are depressing them with taxation
for our own benefit. | have been told, too,
that my State was a beggar here that she
came asking aims. Sir, ! reject these asser-
tions with scorn. It is not necessary for me to
saw ANYTHING in defense of that great old State
which represent--a State which has paid
within the last twenty years nearly eight mil
lion dollars for education; whose people volun-
tarily taxed themselves TO the Same amount; a
State where every man reads; where every man
Is norton of the general community; where
all are equal, and all intelligent; where her
government has expended more than fifty mil
lion dollars to improve her roads and rivers
where her citizens have expended Sl00, co.,
600 10 construct railroads, aud to make her
coal mines productive and profitable. Such a
people require no defense from me. They can
defend themselves Their churches, their
school houses, their cultivated fields. their sub
stantial homesteads, their massive barns, their
beautiful cities, their thriving villages, aud
their philantbropic edi6ces are monuments to
their patriotism, their intelligence, their virtues
and their greatness. They will stand as long q;
as this Union shall last, and trust that Will
be forever. That State, and her people, re-
