1 Comr, Let Us Reason Together. ' -As the. whiff politicians are everywhere bitter in their denunciations of the revenue tariff of 46, we propose contrasting it with the one of '42, aud of showing that it is not deserving-the .anathemas which are lavishly neapeu upon trie members oi tnatj - - . 1 . t r party. More tlian this, we trust that we hall succeed in "establishing beyond the lingering of a djubt, that neither the miner nor ine manufacturer nas any wen groun ded cause of complaint, their evil surmi sings being in our judgment, mere fig ments of their, imaginations. The first, and indeed the only o'jjects of every wise ly framed enactment should be, that it proves equal in its operations. This the law of '42 did not do. It was based upon an erroneous principle. Most of the duties it imposed were specific, or .i - mi l . I. II I ,-maue me matter sun more j'laui, utciwiii per centage ..was added to every square yard, without the least regard to the quali ty of the articles, so that the coarsest fa brics were taxed at the same rates with the finest. This was highly unjust and Were the commissioners of the several counties of the commonwealth to levy the different taxes upon the same principles, we would in a short lime witness a gener .al uprising of the people, from one end of the State to the other. Were they to rate small, houses as high as large ones, and slate and mountain farms at the same price per acre, as well improved limestone land, we think our whig property owners, and even our whig manufacturers themselves, n-nnM Iia liittoi in ihpir ninlmnrtirn nf of the mode, and yet it would be giving them a practical illustration of their own favorite doctrines. Indeed we can scarce ly sje how sensible and reflecting men can be so completely blinded by partisan prejudice, as to insist upon the re-enact-raenl of a law which was manifestly so unequal in its operations. . The law of '46 is a much more perfect one. It is based on a different, and as we believe, a true principle. . Under it the duties are levied according to the value of the article. Cloth worth five dollars per yard, is assessed with higher duties than that valued at three. This is as it should be, and though at the time of its passage, and for long afterwards, its enemies pre dicted the stoppage of the wheels of gov ernment for the want of revenue, yet it has borne us triumphantly through the Mexi can war, and the wheels of our republic still continue to move. Better than this, instead of diminishing, it has greatly in creased the revenue of the nation, thus showing the wisdom of the Executive who suggested, and of the Congress that enacted the law. The repeatedly reiterated whig argu ment that high duties are necessary to the prosperity of a nation, is not only refuted by the best writers on political economy but it is also contradicted by actual obser- vauon. iu luiiy suustantiate me iruui oi our position, it is only necessary for us to turn the attention of our readers to the Government of England, and they will there find that whilst the "favored few" have for ages been protected by onerous tariffs, the great masses have always dwelt, and still continne to dwell in the most ab ject poverty. All experience proves that the less restriction there is on commerce the greater will be the prosperity of any nation. More than this, we believe that the principles of an unfettered commerce is yet to be a '.hosen instrument in the harnJs of Provi( enca for the evangeliza tion of the work'. But from what class of people does the existing revenue law meet with its most violent opposition? We answer from the manufacturers, and from the dealers in "coals. Now why should they complain? They are protected by thirty per cent, du ties, and if with these advantages, they are unable successlully to compete wun foreign manufactures, we think they should hold their peace. New furnaces and facto ries are being erected in different sections ofojr widely spread country, while most of the old one3 s;ill continue in op eration enriching the coffers of their owners, and if under the protection extended to them by the present law, they cannot prosp r, the fault must rest with "the proprietors. We believe that the true reason why so many of the manufacturers exper'ence such disastrous failures is, in a majority of instances, fairly attributable to profliga cy and extravagance on their part. If our wealthiest farmers, and most industrious mechanics were to indulge in the same habits of extravagance do everything by. deputy ride -about in gaudily decorated coaches and visit with their families the most celebrated watering places, we think ' that but few of them would be able to re tain their properties. Upon what princi ples of justice then do these manufacturers and coal dealers insist on additional pro tection in their particular branches of bu siness? -. Is it right that the consumer should be oppressively taxed for the exclusive bene fit of the maker? and what else, disguise it as you may, is a tariff, other than a direct tax laid in an indirect way, the consumer paying, and the manufacturer pocketing " the profits thereof. ' We take the position that the government has no right to levy duties beyond what are necessary to de fray the expenses of an economically ad ministered government. The moment our national representatives go beyond this, they in our judgment, transcend their con stitutional powers. We do not wish to be understood as entertaining hostile feelings towards any of the branches of our manu factures, but we do desire to be understood as opposing ihe extension of privileges to one class of people to the exclusion of all others. In the language of the departed age of the Hermitage, "let us have a rev enue law which 'will descend like the dews of Heaven equally upon all." Chambers-burg- Sentinel.
