Now, Ido not exaggerate. And L think Lbavo right here with me a- short extract from the speech of Senutor Hammond,-in which hoe denounced the laboring people as “slaves.” Let me read it to you. Senutor J. H. Hammond, of South Caroling: uttered the languagé on the tioor of the United States Senate which I give ou: aoe we Tn all social systems there must be a class to do the drudgery of life,—that is, a class requir- ing but a low order of intellect and but little skill. Its uuisits are vigor, docility, tidelicy. Such a class- leads to 'progreas, civilization, and refinement. It constitutes the very. mud-sill of society and of the political verniment; and you might ias well try th bulld-a hduse-in the air as to build either the one or the other except on this mud-sill. Fortunately for jthe South, ebe founda race adapted to her purpose at hand,—a race inferior to hers, but ‘eminently qualified in temper, in vigor, in dtcility, in ca- pacity, to stand the climute, to answer. all her purposes. “ The difference between us is that our slaves gre hired for life; yours:are hired brake day. ‘Pho status in which we hive placed’ them Is an elevation.

And let me, in showing you that, show you more; that disasters, amounting to bankruptcy, State and Nutional, bave foilowed every tariff for revenue only; that, to relieve disasters protective tariffs have been adopted, hey have invariably built up the prosperity of tho country, und continued to maintain it, until the South, with its few Northorn aflies, should re- peal protection and reéstabligh # tariif for reve- hue only.

There was no branch of manufucture unless it was ‘lonf-bread and things that people must eat: from day to day, and that-they cou!d not export from England, that was tolerated; therefore we bad only a.few miinufactures, that had sprung ‘up: during’ the Reyolutionary War. But even these were to be protected; they were to be fostered; the re- sources of the country “were to be developed. They strugeled on, and manufactures did grow, and they were protected; but the war of 1813 came, and lasted, you know, until 1S15;, and then, when peace came, no provision of law bad been made to protect the manufactures that had been culled into existeuce by the war, and Henry Brougham, afterwards Lord Brougham, in the year 1815 ureed from the floor of arfament the British man- ufacturers to flood the country with goods, without cousidcration of price, so us todestroy in the cradie the infant indu®ries that had been foreed ‘into existence ‘by thé éx- igencies of the war.

The Govorn- ment was almost bankrupt, and it went on . GETTING WORSE AND WORSE UNTIL 1811, when the State of Pennsylvania bad to declare its inability to pay the interest on its debt; when its. people were wholly unable to pay their taXvs; When there was no employment for any- body’ stagnation dire prevailed throughout the uroad Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Then the condition of the people became intolerable; the people determined they would turn the Democratic party and its tariif for revenue out; they would yet a proteclive ‘taritf. ‘they raised the cry of log-cabing and hurd cider. ‘They sang “Tippecanoe. and ‘Tyler too,”* and “Maine went, hell bent, for Gov. Kent.” {Laughter.] The Democracy were gotten rid of, and we had the protective tariff of 182. Now, in the year 1813 the revulsion began, and it con- tinued through 1844, °45, and "46. - For the tirst time in the history of our country we produced, under that tariff, 800,000 tons of fron. We never had, produced a quarter of it. We produced $u0,00U tons of iron, and our other industries were as prosperous, ‘Che Democrats determined to get possession of the Government again. In 18st they nominated James K. Polk. James K. Polk claimed to be as good a taritf man as Heary Clay was, who was his competitor; and George M. Dallas, who was nominated with him, notonly made a speech in my hearing, but 1 stood at his buck in the door of, his own house when he addressed his fellow-citziens who came to cougratulate him upon bis nomination. and said to them that be assur them on his honor that Mr, Polk was as good a tariff jnan as Mr. Clay, and, holding his right arm aloft, be said: * May toy rightarm perish if voice or vote’ of mince shall aid io chunging the tariff which has pro- duced such beneticent results.” He was speak- jog of tho tariff of 18:2. ‘That tariff was repeal- ed,and the revenue tutitf of 1816 was substituted for it; and, what is note, George M..Dailas gave tho casting vote to pass that bifland repent the tariff.

Under.the compromise you came to ruin in 1811, sin 1837, "3s, °89, "40,—the climax came in 18U. You got the tariff of 1842, and, though you held. it but four. years, it brought you to prosporit; Atthe end of four years the Democratic party, true to’ its instincts, repealed that protective tariff, and gave you another one for revenue only." Now let me jump ten years; ‘but in jumping Jet us" look at’ those. ten Yeurs; 187 found everything prosperous; found us, ag I have suid, making more iron than ever beforé: found us manufacturing more varicties of goods than ever before. But more than that, in 2548 we discovered gold in Calitorni#, und dur- that ten years we mined $1,100,000,00 of gold, $110,000,000 un yeur for ten successive years. That ought to make ws rich. More than that, the potatoe: rat broke out in Ireland, .spread to England and the Continent, and opened to us an unparnicled and unprecedented market for our grain and provisions. “We shipped «what: wus then regarded as the enormous sun: of $58,000, OW worth in a single year of wheut and corn,— utterly unprecedented.
