At'hafalaya Hank, for the rccovciy of five dollars, on a promissory note of that institution, payable on (Icniund. The bank denied that it owed the money! Judgement was given in favor of the planlifT, on proof being furnished thai the signatures were genuine. The m.vslull railed at the bank with a writ of seizure. The c ishier laid the matter before the Board, and l<dd the marshall to call again. He did so, when he was tohi that the bank could not pay the amount of the judgement. "I shall seizeyaur hanking house." ''It is m rtjjagi d for more than it is worth." "Your furniture, then?" "It does not belong to us." Whereupon the marshal! returned: no property found. And yet this bank dares issue its promissory notes as a measure r.f value to the community,-ami when sued to recover the amount ofone rf thein, denies the debt and when condemned to pay it by a tribunal of justice, pleads that it his no property!

' In litis respect, the jndency of a Ta- 1 riff l'a\ is to preserve if general distti " tuition of property, wliie liiat of u Direct i'l.x i? to concent'ate it pore in a smaller . number of hands.

The Tariff "BX operates as hi. : . xnnption from ta.\j??n of the vast pos sessions of the ricli. H'hc man who owns 1 ... b ten thousand acres of land, pays on that a account no more tnx than he who nwnsone acre. In this nrrnne.r it protects accumu f lotion of property and favors the rich. It S is in effect an intermediate*system of taxation between the Poll Tax and the Direct h Tax. ti The Poll Tax falls upon all alike, whe- I ther rich or poor. It is a tax on all per-* ii sons. The Direct Tax on the other hand w falls only on those who have property, ii and is greater or less in proportion to c their possessions. A Tariff is a lax, nt>t a directly on the person or property. It is m not a lax upon the head, though it taxes n that which is necessary to sustain life. It!a is not a tax on IhiiiIs, stork, utensils, or' (I fin-! it ore, though it is a tax on the cloth-jc injr purchased with the produce of lands, jc and the wages of their labor in all its de-'tl parlments. If all men consumed alike of i ti the imported articles taxed, it would be n in principle, precisely like a poll tax. If p all men consumed those articles in propor- p tion to their wealth, it would be in priori- c pie. precisely like a Direct Tax. But as ? such is not the lact, it is neither the one 'I nor the other; but partakes of the nature h of both. To the man without property who purchases tariffed articles with the f fruits of his labor, it is in effect a poll tax. w To the man whose expenditures-are regu- V laieil in view ol great possessions, it~is w somewhat in the nature of a tax on pro- n perty. Oif all taXrs, a poll tax. though nomi- d nally equal, is, in rrsppct to the objects o for which taxes are laid, the most unequal \ fa and unjust. The chief expenditures of ai govcrnni'lit are for the protection of pro- o! perty. Those for the protection of per- tl sons arc comparatively small. It is un- tl just to tax a man for the protection of pro- h perty who has no property to protect.? <>i it is just to tax him Ibr the protection ofjn his person. Bui it may be doubted, i a whether the liability of a poor man to i tl military duty and the labor generally ex- tl acted from him in tlie making and repair nf roads, occ. are not a sufficient lax to ta pay for :>Ii lite protection he receives at c? the hands of government or the rommnni- ol ty. T-> tax him in all he eats drinks am) oj wears, directly or indirectly, as is the ll rase in England, and to a considerable e< extent in the United States,-, is a draw- ai hark upon the acquisition of property, and ti often on the means of subsistence, from m which, if practicable, he ought to be ex- fr erupt. The true policy of a republican T ? vernment is to afford all practicable fa- is rtlities for the acquisition of property; lint at the same time, check its accumula- Si lion in large masses. And wp have some- le times thought the best possible revenue i pt system would be a tax o^ property to bejth nrreased in proportion to the value of ajef nan's possessions: For instance, let thejtii nan without property W taxed.v.njy in 01 jersonal services; let the man #ha i* vorth 81000 or less, he taxed a small per th rentage on the actual value of himproper- ta v; on those who are worth from $f00t) to joOilO, let the percentage he increased; on hose worth ironi 85000 to 10,000, a still "iitlier increase; and so on, making the sh idlest man pay the heaviest percentage, is such a system would be as just as any Co low practised, ami would operate as a musianl check upon those vast accumula-l pa ions of properly which are so fatal to as ibrrty and equality. .-v cr ReHjri'injj to the point where we set an iijt, we concede to a Tariff as means ofj in aisinjr a revenue, that. Calling i:i effect a i ipon the profits of business, and being be radically an abstraction from the surplus lia truducts of the country' it is less felt than or i Direct Tax upon the person or proper- da y. lit 2. One of the arguments in favor of a Pai iff-iver other mens of raising a revenue s, the alleged chcapwsi of collection. This yc s an assumption contrary to the fact ? m; riiere is probably n<> tax levied in this g^ ountry which costs so large a percentage in or the collection as a Tariff. We see it stated in recent debates in ws Dot'.gress, that the cost of cc? 11 er i i i> ? the tin eveiinc received at the (?usl?m House in Vow York, being more than two-thirds of he whole income of the government front " !iities on imported merchandize, is about iff/it percent. Tin's, however, is hut a itiiall proporiion of the amount actually /< mid by the people, The Tariff system nakes every merchant and shopkeeper in he Union, wholesale ami retail, who sells mported goods or produce, a collector of 11" evenuc fur .the government, who miiisi lave his compensation, not only for the rouble but for advancing the money to he government, or becoming directly re- 84 sponsible for it in the tirst instance. The importing merchant pays, the duty hi entering the goods or giveshis bond for t. When lie sells to the wholesale or read merchant, headds the duty with a per- . 'allege thereon tor profit, to '.he -price of /j he goods. Il< thus collect the doty with I i profit upon ii from ihetirst ptirch.?ser.? flic wholesale merchant, after paying the inpcrter he government doty with a prof- ? i upon it, adds the whole to the price of * he gooc'swheii he sells in the retail mer- e'? hunt; uith a percentage for his profiil j" iuprradiled. ^ The retail merchant; loving thus paid ?0 the government duly with the addition of > v.? ^ >. ? . double profit, adds the white to the p f the goods with an additional percentage' ar /us profit, when ho 1T-= to the Farmer, ij_ lechaltic or other consumer. Tj)Us it is, that this sp?cf?'Vnf tax isCol. jcted front the people, Every sailer of 'jxed articles in a government collector, lis profit upon that part of the price which % made up of government duty is his comlissjon or compensation. Before it corned n the consumer, this commission has been \ ompound two, thr-ec, four or more times, ccorditig lo the number ofdp alee* through '.hose hands iIip goods liave pa.fsed. IV. lav be safely assumed that on an average t least,twenty-Jive percent, is added to the ulily ns in- rchants' profit, (or c/llector's ontmissioii) before the articles reach the hflsinners or ultimate fax-pavers. This fa te cost of collecting a revenjie by Tariff ixation made lip.^The people p;iy to the lerchaot collectors at least twertty^five.

" ^ . j. Let the reader fix his mind upon this ici: Let him examine onr estimates:1 Hare 'e allowed too-much for merchant's pr'otrtf . . W have not a doubt, that as an average ; 7? e bave allowed too little,' ft may betuu inch on the consumptioirof the importing ities; but it is far too-little on that of the .^ 7, ista.nt interior- It is one.of the incidents f this system, that the cost of collection, ills more heavily, (in proportion to the. 1monnt c rnsumed,) upon the Farmer and ^ liter consumer in the interior, than upon le population nt ine Atlantic ctues. ado -^?-. ~ le m<>re distant the consumer lives, the.#T^r eavit-r will bp the tax tipon liim^aml ujh n none does it fall so heavily as upon pw settlers on the frontiers.
