Excerpt from Constitutional Arguments Indicating the Rights and Policy of the Southern States To this extent it may doubtless, sometimes, be the die t-ate of a prudent forecast, to assist the difficult struggles for birth, of infantile arts requiring great previous invest ments to insure success: in a country well prepared for their introduction, and where the chief difficulty to be obviated, is, a disadvantageous contention with the established course of trade. Such a case may perhaps be allowed to constia tute an exception to the benign rule of unlimited freedom in all the Operations of commerce: and so far, to justify the seeming absurdity of an enlightened people, voluntarily imposing shackles on their own profitable exchanges. The reason of the exception, however, pro-supposes that no com munity should be required to submit to such restraints and sacrifices of' the advantages in its possession, but one willing to endure them, under the expectation of greater eventual gains from the naturalization of new and valuable arts with in its own territorial boundaries. It surely cannot be urged in justification of the forced erlensa'on of the same restric tions (even supposing them wise and salutary to a part\ over a vastly extensive territory, divided into separate and only federally allied communities; a great proportion of which is admitted to have a dissimilar and even. A directly hostile interest, ruinously affected by the policy, which breaks the chain of reciprocity, uniting them to their chief and most necessary customers.
