II Is idle To say that dirrrt taxes are not
likely soon to bc imposed in very heavy
burdens. The prohhitory system into
which New England hNs yokcd the coun-
try. j. uCNacting in it, nature as ultimately
ia defeat the proposed object of n tari1, as
q source OF rcVcnue, and to leave no alterna-
tive except q recourse to direct taxes. The
machine 50 arllully constructed by our
New England neighhors will thcn do
double daty. The tariff viii give them
closed ports. and Il monopoly of internal
supply. lNic West will pay the deficiency
of revenue.
The rmissarics OF the East, the gold of
