AN EXPOSITION OF EVIDENCE In support of the Memorial to Congress "setting forth the evdsof theexisting Tariff of Duties, and askino such a modification of the same, as shall be cons tent wkhthe purposes of revenue, and equal in its operation on the different parts of the United States, and on the various interests of the same." Prepa red in pursuance of instructions from the Permanent Committee appointed by the Free Trade Conven tion assembled at Philadelphia to prepare the Me morial to Congress. By Henry -Lee, of Massa chusetts, one of the Committee, i No. IV, 1 TAXES ON WOOLLENS AND IRONi Tax on Woollens. As the d isetiss?ion of this important item in the Tariff, as well as that of iron, wool and hemp, has been assigned to another member of the Committee, who is able to do each ot them ample justice by displaying all" their evil con sequences we shall confine our remarks on this article, chiefly to the amount of direct and indirect taxation imposed on the nation, for the benefit of the small portion of the woollen manufacturers who depend on extreme duties for their support. The importations of woollens since 1831 are as follows 1821, 7,600,000 12,200,000 8,300,000 8,200,000 i 10,900,000 7,900.000 8.200;000 : 7,900,000 6,300,000 ; 5,800,000 $83,300,000 1822, 1823, 1824, 1825,' 1828, 1827, 1828, 1829, 1830, i 10 years, ' The exportation of woollens is jvery small, ivarving from 200,000 to 400,000;dollars per annum, and cannot exceed 3 million!? in 10 years, which make the prime cost of those actually consumed, 8,000,000 dollars per an num. The duty on woollens under the-act of 1789 was 5 per cent. It was subsequently advanced to 7, to. 12 S and, during the war, to '7 ' per cent, wholly however for revenue,, and for no other purpose. In 1810, on the ! adjustment of the vnrious claims that were put forward by those who had interests which had grown up under the war prices, it was thought just to give the manufacturers ofwoollens )lbperccni.; to fall, however, in three years to 20 per cent. But before that period expired, a further tirnr of seven years was allowed for a reduction of the duty to 20 per cent., and during that inter val the act of 1824 was rasied to33 per cent. The manufacturers, not ''-content with this j duty,- which, added to the common importing I charges; gave them a 'protection against the foreign fabric of at least 55 per cent.-, again de- manded more duties, which they obtained by i the act of 1828, granting them rates of 4" to 150 per cent., and rising generally on the articles in proportion to their coarseness ; tnus taxing the people, not in proportion to their wealth, but to their want of it one of the most promi nent features of what is termed the American System." The duties, then, within the period often years for which we have given the amount of importations, range from 25 per cent, advalo rem, or 27f on the cost, up to their present rates of 45 to 150 per cent. It is not to be sup posed that many goods will bear the extreme rates of duty which are established, and we shall therefore call the average of the duties actually collected, under the existing act, 00 per cent., though this is probably below v.hat has been actually paid. We have before us statements from importers who have paid from 80 to 100 per cent, on this year s importations If, then, we take the average duty at 45 per cent. , on the last ten years' importations of woollens actually consumed, amounting to 80,- 000,000 dollars, the result will show a protec tion in the form of a revenue tax, of 30,000,000 dollars; to -which 20 per cent, being. added for charges of im portation, will make the whole pro tection the manufactures have enjoyed against foreign competition equal to 52,000,000 dol lars. Yet even this enormous sum, according to the often repeated declarations of the most respectable individuals in favor of the Tariff, has proved insufficient to enable the home Thus, within the period of two years, there was a gross violation, on the part of the manufacturing capital ists (the. onlv class who can gam ov inis system,; 01 mai implied understanding, on which the act 01 io 10 was sup Dorted hv the non-mannfactui iner States, lhal measure was asked for as affording a moderate and temporary protection to certain valuahte interests, whiclr njnist oth erwise have been involved in ruin and not as jugtifica torv of the principle now contended for, that an inter change of our agricultural staples, with such foreign nations as are in want of them, may, at any time, oe iustlv and legrall? prohibited by Cortgre53,:whenever i can "be made to appear advantageous to particular sec tions. aiid to particular classes : for this is the doctrine on which the " American System" is sustained by it leading advocates. Tbe act of 1S16 may be considered, from the genera support it received in various secuons 01 me couuery, as a national measure : but in making innovations upon it there h;ve been exhibited, upon the very f.ice of the pro ceed ngs.bothin arid out of Congress, the s' l ongest marks of faction and intrigue. The act of 1823 was so grossly unjtist, that it has been denounced even by its advocates, as having been dishonestly obtained, and as bein.? whol ly iucoropetenl to the purposes for which ii w as intended, h is surprising, therefore that eitner of ihese acts should be claimed as furnishing any decisive indication of the national sentiment, since the fiiit was carried by a m.. jority of only one vote, and the latter by a majority of threr votes, inough ihere probably were 50 or 60 manufacturers, or the dependents ;f manufacturers, in Congress, who went to that assembly for no other purpose than to obtain bounties for themselves and th ir principals, and could not therefore be considered, in any degree whatever, as the reprerentatives of the nation. tUU, the national par tv tvhpn rpmnnsiratinc ncaifiSt the injustice and pppres siveness of the existing sys'etn, are reitrrea to the acts ofi comforts of life, that the Commonweath and th nUon 1824 and 182S, as expressive of the sense of the nation, I might not faI jn tne C0-tCsts they were engaged in, for than which n. thing can be more absurd, since the latter j want 0f pecuniary support. ot these raea-ures has been denounced even by its advo- I tt f of Jebt-have been b'.eised cams, while the former had among its most strenuoug op- ; uZ.rne Zwlot vea beyond everv former ex ponenls. the men who are now the leader, of the Tariff ; to fifteen million, . ... u . hnvintr. as one ui mc iuusi i i nmenpn tt --- lantlnn nf K;. .u.J.":T tnero observeu, iu b.jhu-.... ...

Let us now estimate the taxes, paid for the protection of woollens. 1st. That portion which arises from importations, and which as a revenue tax no one will object to ; so long as it is necessary for the public service. 2d. That portion of the tax, which is imposed on the nation by the exclusion of foreign goods, and which is levied solely for the benefit of the privileged manufacturers. 1st. As to revenue. The average consump tion of foreign woollens for ten years has been S0?X),000 dollars ; but, as might be expected, the extreme Tariff of 1828 has greatly reduced the amount. With a population, of about ten millions, in 18'?1 and 1822 the average importation appears to have been nearly 10,000,000 ; while in 1830, with a population of nearly 13,000,000, it had fallen below 6,000,000. Still, this small sum, out of an annual consumption of 70,000,000 dollars, though loaded with protecting charges of 80 per cent., is complained of by the favor ed manufacturers, as ruinous to their interests. The revenue tax, then, on the small quantity of woollens admitted under the extreme duties of 00 per cent., amounts on 6,000,000 dollars, to 3,600,000 dollars. 2d. To ascertain the amount of tax imposed by the prohibitory duties, we must, as in the case of cotton goods, endeavor to form an esti mate of the amount of woollens excluded by tho ie duties ; and we shall, in prosecuting this aquii-y, Keep within the limits ol proDabiiity. Some of the manufacturers maintain, that uchare the advantages which foreign countries enjoy over ours, lor prosecuting this branch ol nanufacturing, that even the present rates of duty, enormous as they are, will hardly sustain them: while others reeomended an entire pro- libition. If they are correct in these opinons, follows that a i iai-( proportion of all the roods we --.. 111 a iit-ii lil ic lmr.Ar'tPii iTrTr V the duties repealed. But we do not admit this ; 1 - - .i . to be true, and shall therefore not avail our selves nonopoly. The whole consumpti-jn of woollens is esti- mated by Mr. Miles and others at 70,000,000 dollars. Our annual-importation of 60,000,000 x loliars, with the protecting charges of 80 per cent, acided, is 10.800.0(H) dollars leaving the sum of 50,209,000 dollars' as the amount of domestic voollens. consumed. The question then recurs, what proportion of this sum of 59,000,000 dollars is forced upon the consu- mers bv the enactment of orohibitorv duties, on similar foreign articles We should say, certainly not less than one-fifth of the amount consumed, or 1,000,000 dollars ; and, estima- ing the prohibitory duty at 70 per cent., we iave 8,400,000, as the sum levied upon the na tion to exclude the cheaper foreign fabrics ; makingwith the revenue tax of 3,600,000 dol lars, the sum of 12,000,000 dollars. H'lipro is. in rlditJrtn ir tbi favntinn. n rnn siderably increased charge on the cost of such j , portions of our domestic woollen goods as are independent of any protection, arising; from duties on the raw materials used in their manu facture, and from the taxes on many of the necessaries of life, which operate heavily on all branches of industry. In justice to the woollen manufacturers, it must be admitted, that while the duties impos ed for their protection are very burdensome to the country, they are themselves heavily taxed bv birrb Hllfinc rn r w 1 r mill inrliixr iTrblb COJlStitue a large portion of the COSt of many staple fabrics ; and if has often been asserted in journals and speeches advocating the inter ests of the manufacturers, that they suffered more by the increased duties on the raw mate rials, imposed by the act of 1828, than they gained by the increased duties on foreign fa brics. It is also maintained that they are inju- mer part of our Keport, the alteration of a few cents in the COSt of a yard of COth, Varies the rates of duties from 10 to GO or 70 per cent.? pei Nor is it to be expected that smuggling can be prevented in our long line of lrontiers, when vhen from woollens and cotton ban be transported It was formerly contended, in fivor of a free and Constitutional government of defined and limited powers as ours was once thought to ie that eaual and mo derate taxation, the result of an economical administra - tion of public affairs, was among the advantages; wbtch, under ordinary circumstances every citizen, in whateve section he might happen to reside, might reasonably ex pect to enpy. In time ti war, when a great expenditure is required for public defence, every good citizen must be content to bar even a burdensome taxation, as the price of tiiat security and national independence, hich musi be maintained at anv expense. ' Such was the condition oflhis nation during our late war, and still more so during the revolutionary strug gle one of the principle object of which was to exone rate ourselves from unequal, unjust, affd burdeiisome tax ation.

Such are the facts and such-the fruits of the System i and a laboring man can gain more by the illicit which the American manufacturei has toiled to support!" introduction of a few pieces of cloth, than by . lZ- Zm. v ear laoui. i The manufacturers and advocates of high duties are so sensible of this evil, that it was one of the subjects most discussed in the New York Convention; and Mr. Ellsworth, a re? pectable member of that body, obserred, "that r ! ! an extent were frauds practised, that the , j Tariff was a mere nulity. In the face of all it3 provisions, the manufacturer did not in realilv enjoy protection of more" than 40 to 45 'pen and m exolanatinn Mr FV nAAA tfcf cent. when the effect of the duty on wool was con sidered, the present Tariff did not operate as a protection to the manufacturer of 25 per centr I his statement was sustained by Mr. Brown, of Boston, one of themost intelligent, respec table, and experienced men engaged in maiiu, fac in ring. "He had long been engaged in the business, and he had always said that the manufacturer could do a better business under thetarifflaw of 1810, than that of 1828, if the existing frauds are permitted to continue." Mr. B., consider ing; the effects of these frauds and the duty on wool, did not estimate the protection, actually realized, as more than 25 per cent. , Ve could quote similar declarations from other equally respectable sources, in support of what is here advanced; and what is the inference? Why, that as regards even woollens, the most higliiv protected article, the manufacturers, according to their own declarations, do not realize $o much protection as they would do under a maderate duty. - This is the proposition we have -attempted to sustain through the whole course of our re marks. Let the manufacturers have their raw ; materials either free or at low duties, and tfifc? oenetit, together with relief from the general taxation imposed by the restrictive system and an increased demand for their fabrics conse quent upon this relief, would soon place them in a safer and more prosperous condition than j they now are, while the nation would be ena j bled to throw off that heavy burden, iindi: I which she labors, and which ousrht no longer to be endured. - - .I against the authority of the most powerful nation on eWiu and for what ?
