Mr. MOORHEAD Said t Mr. Cu/mum : Three' months have elapsed abuse we assembled Obi Hall. Amidst all the --excitement which lute existed, the members with e whom - I act bare lireserved a commendable silence, believing, Miley'. did, that no business bit the election of Siteaker wee in order until the ' Hausa watt orgenizSd. t will not review the easties.exhibited , during the otrugle for khe elec. tion of Speaker; I ;will' not expose, in their enormity, the Miming threats of disunion which ;-etreceeded from the 4ipt of gentlemen on the Dinstierallo olden( thh Ekon. I have no hurt, Mr. Chairman; to an?ertake such a work, and Vona not ermines! theta, did I not consider It Important that the motile should understand •• the purpoees entertained by the distinguished leaders of the Darpocrstio:party. These threats were, in iny , opinion, 'very unwisely made. If intended to prevent the election of a President . who has respeatfofetid ay inpathy with the inter eats et the free white laboring man, they will bo 'penile's; for the people of fide country know their interesta; - end will protect there- Least of all, will they abandon them under treasonable - threats of destroying the Goverment. The pen. L '. pie have always maintained, and will always maintain, the-right of the majority to rule. In disregard otall ;thin:lib:later, and those threats, the Republican party will meet in convention, nolninate, a candidata, elect him if possible, and enrols !Cahill, hid Ittoro co when he is elected. ..They - will not brag nor swagger about it. They not now nee the hkatige of deflanon. Dat they will permit no dictation of iptereated Sea to swerve theta from their parpose, nor nut liry the popular will. t' It is a slander upon the Republican ;party to pay that they have aoy de rip against the parsons or propererty of our Southern neighbors; ; They are Union loving hsad--will standby the constitution and the -Whl!st they tirlll darefaily avoid attack tienthert,they will rOgieVaggressiona upon their riittts, Om' ther frOn what quarter they may. • . To anticiPate the reveres, Is in one case to charge .7. 'them with perfidy, In the other with cowardice, • , both foreign to the remoter of the American - ;,. althea.- i . i • , . ... But. Mr. Chairmen; I did not rile to discuss any -of these topics,elleviag, se I do, that this ' Union will not , bee continue dissolved, let who ,may be '-' elected President, b ri t , will deane to grow and -. .prosper we become the greatest nation on the globe. - My purpose is to direct the atten tion of the Bouse lb! the revenue policy of the Government, and to sagged what, in my opin . l'lon, .rwill - tend more than anything else to strenithen the bonds of this Union. Mr. Chair man,the Goiernment must be supported by rev enue, which the peoPle, in some way or other, must.-pay. Now, to i make these contributione • most equitable, least burdensome. and moat beneficial to the entire community, end have their proceeds pistol' ln the treasury at the smalleat expenee, should ,be die; object of the ' 'stalest:lan. Whethei the , revenue be raised by , taxing Imports, or by direct taxation, are grave ,questions. As the legitimate result! of free trade would lead to the latter, it is well to examine them; and, in eo deli*, I will refer to the doe trine laid down in the Cincinnati platform on this subject, which IS Sa follows : "Resolved, That there are questions connect ed with the foreign policy Of this country which are inferior to no demesne question -whatever. The time has come for, the people of the United States to declare themeelves in favor of free seas and MOCISLCSSITiI rage STLADn througheut the world; - by ElOieMil manifestations, to place their Dec telluric& t i. the side of their WO useful exam , t. „tr - How far the t .

But-I regret to that, on this question of FILOOIIaSSINT • . ' ' there tea very genera neq• ccnce by that par. ty, and thus the mean and manner of support. ipg the Government are made, or attempted to be made, were queetione of psrly politica—a courage to be regretted by all fair and candid ' men. So far as I may diocuss 'them, I will en deavor to treat chain! as 'questions of political economy,' and not ofd party politics. We have an extensive country, and greatly di. iereified Interests, ail to be govered by the same law. It should, therefore,' ba no framed as to confer its bite/doge upon all; or, in other words, ..- , add to,the prosperity; enterprise, Industry, and value of the wholocountry; to make tts wealthy and happy at-homer' respected, honored and feared abroad.' flow-can this be clone? If I 'classy anything Quit will contribute to produce • . `this result, my purpdho will be accomplished. I trill, at least, give myvidwa upon what I consid , ... •er equal In importanee to' any eubjetthat will engage the attentioe ;of the presentittongreas. We boy too muoh !robe abroad; and, I was going to say, sell too littli,p but' I will not say that. 'We sell enough, perhaps too much, for it would greatly. enhance oar wealth and prosperity if we consumed our produdte at home, Instead of send ' leg them abroad to feed foreign labor; and then : buy that-p.m/out ? T (((hat labor in the shape of mannfactered articles, se I will endeavor to show more folly hereafter! ;., There has been !ankh dismission sod variety — of Opinion on the sobjiot of aprolectio. tariff, or a rescue tanff—a mein difference of terms, as the. opponents of pratketicin have, uatil recently, fevered s revenue tariff,. with disarimications in favor of the menfaetaers of our own country. It matters not by whit name a tariff le called call it what you piesse; but It does metier that its principles ebohld be such se to add to the proeperity and Mippinees of the people. Providence has dealithost bountifully with us as a asiloa sad a people: We hue great ogrical tarsl resources, minerid wesittratill kinds, end in immense qualities: CMIIMETCO has spread her wings from the Alleluia to the Pacific and that upon our rootage* rivers and Lakes has no parallel on the face of he globe. Oar free and liberal form of governmet is inviting to oar shoreathe emigration of the world; and, having the means to feed andtrupport them, and the material ape* atilt& bi employ their mbar, way should ,we not mats the most of our own re sources,' and become the wealthiest, the happi est, Mid the greatest astioa on the earth? Why should we' permit so humiliating a rat card to be laid before the Home se that exhibited by the financial report, lacrian your table?

Why can you not manufacture iron as ehesply in this country asin England? I answer: it le true we havethe raw material In abundance; we have the requi site skill; we have the labor-saving machinery. and we have the labor; but that labor should be encouraged, and not crushed to them:all. IV is the glory of oar country that the road to fortune and to fame Is open to all and le traveled by all. We have no special sissies or grades here. We frequently find the laborer of to day the employ er of to-morrow; and this can only be the case. when labor Is remunerated. We cannot employ labor at the prices paid 'in the , oldconntries; we ebonld not wish to; And when the day arrives, if it ever should, (which Heaven forbid,) that the laboring man of our country is reduced to the 'ego paid in foreign countries, then indeed will our glory ea a nation have departed. Let no, on the other band, encourage limbo products. Stop this miserable piney of forcing our provision. abroad to find/market., and hay ing them returned to unto the shape of manu factured articles, we paYing come CO or BO per cent., in •addition to their original value, for transportation, ate., to tho middle mon through whotia-they have parsed; but let no apply our own labor to our own raw mafetiiffs, and thus provide a home market foram own breadituffe, for the product of our own farmere; supplying ourselves with the manufactured - articles; saving transportation, commiselons and various expen ses, and feeding and supporting our own labor in preference to foreign. If the power and great ness of a State or country depend upon the num her and prosperity of its population, then it fol. lowa, as a Matter of course, that, Ity combiolog manufaatingWith'agriculture, you can increake the popular on to the extent that the products of the soil would supply with nourishment; or, la other words, you could employ as largo a poph lation in manufacturing and trade as the sot - outland productions of the Noll would feed, and by this penny you would brio el he producer add the consumer together you would have a hoole market for be agriculturalist, who would, ia ei change, rebeive the domestic manufacture it stead of the foreign, and thus add to the wealth of our elm country by de4eloping its great nat ural reentries. , Why should any portion of our. Onion object to this policy? The argument Is, that sortie States of the Union are oonenniertinnd not pro ducers of these manufactured artielert Ilene° they must buy as cheap as they: can, and sill their own redacts as dear as poseible. Let es examine thi . At the formation of oar Confed eration, sth n the great experiment of a Repub. Hewes sbo t be tried, and a Republican Govern mentl, about obe put in operation, the wise men of that day, knowing that the eyes of the world were upon t em, and that the predictions of the Monarchial and absolutists or the Old World were, that this was %Utopian scheme that would not be carried into .practice, end'- that the then infant Republic would soon crumble to atoms, endeavored to guard and proteln every interest, and prevent eternal strife and division. The manner of raising revenue for }lie support of the new government was a matter ;of great con. cern. Various propositions were made and fully discussed. Should there be a tax upon land? &mold the taxbe onimports, or should they tax exports? 1 . . The principal discussion weal, between the Iwo latter propoultious Tobacco tine then an arti cle of considtrable export ., Cotton had not yet assumed any importance an au article of .trade; in fact, it wee about the yeer 1,790 that the planters of the Southern Suttee began to turn their attention to rattling it, and not unlit 1795 that Mr. Whitney Invented the cotton gin. In 1784, eight bags of cotton from °need our South ern Siam, consigned to Mr. Rathbone, an American merchant in Liverpool, were eared by the custom hones officers, en the allegation that it could not have been grown in the United Stales—so insignificant and unknown was the production of this great staple at that time, al though now denominated King. I refer to this for the purpose of showing that, hid the cotton interest then been what It la now, one section Of our country having an entire monopoly ails pro ductioo, that vast interest might have . decided differently the question of taxing ;exports; and the producers of cotton, who now abject Ito strenuously to taxing imports, to its to protect the American manntactures, might have been paying to upon their exports. What did the great men who framed the Constitution any on this subject?

With such authority as Washington and Madison in favor of lazing ex ports, it cannot be denied that withholding the power to tax them was a conceesion of the South, and one that would probabty not have been made, had the production of cotton to any considerable extent then existed. Now, we do not ask for a tax upon exports, but we do ask our Southern friends, who enjoy the exemption, to give. ns such dirties upon imports an will equalise-our condition and encourage American manufactures. We ask that the duties Abell be so laid an to afford incidental protection, and not as recommended by the -Secretary of the Treasury in his report on the fiaances, roads to Congress at its last erasion.
