TAX ON COAL
- Danng.the last few years, prepositioni have
been before our Legislature frequently for laying
a tampon Anthracite Coal.. We bad nog until
recently. supposed that such a suggestion could
find the slightest favor with the Legislature, but .
recent events have proved that it is not improbe
bla that the project may be carried into execution.
The motion of Mr. Kunkle to'strike out from the
new Revenue Dill, Anthracite coal as an article
for taxation. was lost by a sots of. 31 yeas to 57
nays. 'And propositions to include. Biteminous
Canis WOO 4, Iron Ore, ar.c.. were voted down
by large majorities in the House. •
. • However unwise and impolitic we consider the
:imposition of . any tax, on the mineral and egricul-
. tura! productions of the Stile, And psrtieularly on
:Coal, whrek is ss necessary to . all classes of the
community as:breed itself, rr portion of our objet.

credit of the State, and the Dill embrace(' bitu-
minous coal, wood, grain; iron ore, limestone, tke-:
which are just as legitimate, and some of them
lea objectionable objects of
, taxation' than coal.
Bui the project is not only unwise and impoli•
every 'bap, but it is unjust and iniqui
tous in its operation. Coal lands are already tar,'
ed -for Mate purposes. ?reductive coal lands,
- which for farming ptirpores are scarcely worth one
dollar per acre, are taxied at the valuation of $lOO
per acre, while the best farming land is scarbely
ever taxed at a valuation of more than $5O per
OM.'I. It not perfectly clear then, that there is
already s tax on Coal ilisproportionwe to that tip.

4. 'Rem/red. That we consider bituminous coal,
iron tare, limestone, marble, wheat, eya,; lad- alt
other Product' ot the mine, quarry and soil, equally
tonna to contribute their fide proportion of taros '
with Anthracite coal, and therethre to exclude
0 these prod...ets front taxation, and single out An
thracite Coal alone, is a new
,and unprecedented
species el mice and !rum roils abase
an.basairpetton of power. ,
6; Rewired. That the proposed the on Anthracite
coal will compel the citizencof neighboring States
to resort t i measures of, self-protection; to supply
them-elves with the fdreign article front. ItiovL
Scotia and Liverpool,.'and to, adopt retaliatory
modes of taxation, on their own indigenous pro

6. /Netted. That to impose . a tax on Anthra;
cite Coatis virtually to; petition Congress to re
peal the presentprotective duty on foreign Coal— .
since consumers - abroid 'will never subunit to a

tax in the increased price on the protected article;--
thus leading to an entire abandonment pf the eye

- 7. Resetred; That as millions of,dollirs ha've
been expended by individuals in capital; and labor
in constructing railroad* and cattail in this region.,
to develops its mineral resources, and not a dollar
by the Comul,nwealth. no pOctext ,arising froin
benefits conferred can exist to make the coal trade
a spiels! object of taxation. .
8. Resolved, livir .we are aware of, no piece
d_nt of an existing direct tax on any of the nee-ti
e-ales of 10, or any of the products of: the •soil in
any state of the Union—the celebrated New tork
Salt tax being in the nature of a rent paid in Nit.
toe of an interel. in'the salt werka reserved by the
I state government. - • ".
9. Resoliid, That the repeal of the present du
ty on foreign coal must necessarily be followed by
I a repeal of the present duty on iron, and the eon"'
sequent destruction of the:Tariff of 1842. so in
dispensable to the great interests of Pennsylvania,
nuder the influence of . athich• the consumption of
coal has been greatly increased, nuinerous furnaces
i and telling mills have have''-been established, the
wages of labor advanced at leaSt SO per cent, and
a powerful impulse imparted which is still felt in
every branch of industry.
• 10. Resolved. That in view of the repeated at
tempts to crush our coal trade in its infancy by
unjust taxation, in disregard of the great and in
creasing value of this trade to the whole stateowil
to the great discouragement of enterprise inte in
dustry, we are led to conc l u d e th a t our future safe-
ty mud depend—not only onike immutable prin
ciple* of right and justice—hut on our own strength
end ability to protect our , rights- We, therefore
entreat our fellow citizens without distinction of
party, to aid us in a righteous cause, appealing to
their native justice and magnsinimity, against a
system• of unconstitutional taxation alike destruc
tive of our common interests.
11. Resaved. That tire acknowledge with gaol.'
indef. our obligations to those; enlightened mem
bers of the House of Representatives who recently
vatedagainat this measure, and especially to those
who-have' diatingnished themselves by able argu
ments against it, and :we hereby. respectfully in
struct our immediate Representative, the Hon.
George Rahn and Messrs. 'Faggirt and Boyer. to
use their best exertions to defeat it. and Cher. by
merit the nighest applatee of their constituents.
On motion of John U..Nuille, Esq.. it was
Risolved, "That a . fax on Anthracite coal is in

So soon as be was missed; whit traria not until the

him sraicely-livieg. His head was considerably

specimens of Manchester goods, with prices attached,
to aid in the great work of breaking down the Ameri

with four gentlemen from Boston, Messrs Page, Liver

hers had invitedto 'come to Washington with speci
mens of their Anierican goods; that the same , might be
compared with the specimens of British goods already
exhibited hers. visited the cemniittee room in question.
No sooner had the party entered, than. Mr. Homer
commenced rolling op his British- specimeM, for the
purpose of leaving. Mr. Stewart begged him not to go.
He said it ommid not he fair thus to leave without al.'
lowing a comparison of the two kinds of goods to be
made. Mr. flamer still persisted. and said he bed
rather not reinaiti—the gentlemen from Boehm might
haVe the room. Mr SteWert still insisted that be must
not go, but most remain and aid in the investigation.
Finally, Mr. Homer consented to do so. I p
By comparison, it appeared that prints of the same'
quality and &tamp of those of Manchester, worth 10
cents per yard, a:e furnished by the Boston and Lowell
manufacturers at II cents—with this difference-rand it
is a wide one in favor of the AwerMan side of the Ties.
tion—the British articles are "Job Goods,". and lint 21
inches in width, *bile the American are of the first
quality, equivalent to, 10 per centum better than the
'Job Goods of the same article, and are 27 Induce in
width. j
-
. This difference In the width gives In the purchaser
108 square inches in the yard, or .24,102 square /riches
in the plece'of 28 yards:
' Mr. Homer could not get over this "fixed fact." It
Was astompert Then were the American and 'the
British goods. and there were the priers of each Sy
'cry one could see and-Judge 114 himself.' 1 I
The Boston gentlemen exhibited& airy large variety,
of cotton; worsted and silk goods. It was truly esion-'
I Ishine to behold to what perfection ctinerrimme, foa
-1 tered by a wise and Judicious Ainerican Tariff, had
broughtthe manufacture of this description
.of goods,•
as well as to what low prices they bad bent brought.
Some very thick, dark and checked cotton cloth; sultit
Me for gentlemen's summer dresses,. and so gnu' that
hoe:could not tear It with his bands in any way, was
priced at only ten cents a yard. A suit- -wet, vest and.
pants:-coating only sixty cents! Same handsome, do
rable'vestings, finely tlguered, at ten cents! each, were
exhibited- Coarse cotton cloths, white. and of a sub
stantial quality, at four cents, were also to be seen.
It is a charming Idea truly, that we must break down
our Tariff in order to get those goods cheaper. than we
can now obtain them t Permanency in the Tariff lye
tem Is what the manufacturers want, In order that
they'may feel secure in embarking In the manufacture
of finer kinds efgoods, Mich as those manufactured

who syMpathlse with the British on this subject, and

Waal. MIS Corionsss Doxit...'--The United
Siittes Gazettiv'of TuesditY last, has a leader with
the above caption. We give the following extract
from, that article which answers satisfactorily.
•,, , t.What has Congress dee° sinekthe'first of De.
eeinberl It has authorized the annexation of 'rel
ay, and thereby . pecureil one vote in the House of
epresentativet, and two in the Senate, for the
,/resident's party.--three votes and the probability
;fur a war of the most vexatious kind.
The Congress of the nation found the country
entering upon a career of prosperity. It has suc
ceeded in disturbing all calculations of business
that brings extensive advantages. It found the
wealth of the nation,. driven from former invest
ments. flowing toward& manufactures, and it has
checked the career, and paralyzed the enterprise.
It found the people in the full enjoyments of
peace, and in the confidence of undisturbed rela
tions; and, it has brought upon us the paralysing
influence of uncertainty with reference to our for
eign relations, without a high effort to create - a con
fidence in our own defence. •
How has Congress done this, it may, be asked,
when the evils have resulted from the unfortunate
partizan move of the President We answer,
that members of Congress know well ene,ugh t what
was the object of the President. Thef'were in'
his confidence, as of his chosen party fnendii. - e,nd
they were bound to place the nation at once in
proper light before the world. ilia floor of the
Howe of Representatives has been occupied by
men crying aloud for war, shouting for Oregon.
end •danng Great Britain ;, and the ceiling of the
Senate Chamber has echoed the cry of one who
is either shamefully disregardfulvf the, character
of the nation, and the nature of hisplace. or crim
inally ignorant of all that relates to the duty - of a
Senator.
It is true that the President has maintained a
kind of appearance of ; peculiar' secrecy. which
some have lauded as prudent anitiod, but the events
of last week that it was only the'srafron that was
denied *knowledge of what concerned itself, while
individuals mete intrusted with statements and
plans, and friends at the Whic House were al
lowed to understand the end at which the admin. !
isfestion were aiming. and the' means it was de
termined to force into use. These things have
been opening upon Congress, and that body owes
it to itself, and the nation, to refuse to be entrap
ped into measuresiand to make known to the Cats
inet and the nation, t t the Representatives of
the geoplit are not trio made the puppets of 'Ex
ecutive will."
