COTTON TAX or 1866, '66 and 81.
Governor AlCOrn's Message to the Missis-
sippi Legislature.

To the Senate and House Of Representa-
tives:
GeRtemea-The Congress Of the
United States would not have been
human had not its legislation follow
ing Immediately after the close of the
war, been tainted in its moderation
by cbUllitiOns Of the passions Of war.
Aud in no instance does the fact that
Congress is human come more broadly
into evidence in that case than in the
invasion Of even-banded justice and
the violation Of sound policy present
ed by The acts under which the people
of certain States Of the South were
made to contribute many millions Of
dollars from their poverty, in the form
of a tax on raw cotton.
With all the other products Of the
National Agriculture tllltGred, the tax
on the product of the section lately in
rebellion was, in its character, penal.
With the thriving industry of the
land free from any direct burdens Of
taxation, the levy Of that direct bur
den on the crippled industry of the
South, bore all the outward seeming
of a cOnqUerOr's oppression. And
bad blood and bitter memories have
been aWoke throughout the cotton
States, because of that unWise taxa
tiOn. The pride and conscience of a
people should not be slow to repair a
wrong; and 1 know no higher duty
of Justice on the one hand, and policy
on the other, than that which de-
mands that this mighty nation shall
undo the error under which she has
stopped from her otherwise sublime
beneficence to enrich her treasury,
by an invidiOus tax upon children of
her own household, fallen and ruined.
And reparation for the wrong done
the State of Mississippi, and other
States Of the South, by the cotton tax,
may be made at this time with the
fullest measure OF political cOncilia-
ton.
The Supreme Court of the United
States stands evenly divided as to the
right Of Congress to levy the tax; and
with an invidiOus and oppressive law,
placed thus in q doubtful position on
the very verge Of constitutional au-
thOrity, the reparatiOn may be taken
wisely from the attitude Of a surrender
to right to that Of a concession Of fra
ternal feeling. With that view 1 bring
before your honorable bodies this very
interesting subject, and recommend
earnestly that the tax being in a
doubtful position in the Supreme
Court, being in its character so in
vidious as to have inflamed the pas
siOns which arise even amongst the
against the oppression Of
power, the Legislature Of this State
earnestly memOrialize Congress to
save the national benevolence and
promote the national harmony by re-
funding to the struggling cotton in
dustry Of the South, every dollar
taken from its sore need under that
great mistake, the cotton tax Of 1865,
'66 and '67.
