Internal taxation was the next resource in order a means of revenue which states had found avail able for their own burdens and wished still to monopolise. Hamilton had al ready asked of Congress a comprehensive excise, and this was denied him ; but he now confined his proposal to a duty on native distilled spirits alone, and the wish was granted.
