To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The State of South Caro- lina and her few uncomplaining sisters are represented as Digitized by VjOOQ IC wmmm^m 15 groaning under the intolerable burthen of paying the whole revenue of the Federal Government and getting nothing in return. This is a repetition of the grief of 1832, when the country was mystified with that most inscrutable of all reyela* tions, "the forty bale theory," — and which so far prevailed in the philosophy of the National Councils, as finally to secure the triumph of wha...t is claimed to be the free trade adjustment of 1846, — ^which adjustment, it seems now, is no more satisfactory than the protective system it displaced. It is also worthy of note, that the rabid abolitionism of England, of which so much has been said of late in the way of denunciation, and which, in fact, is quite as mischievous to Southern peace as the fanaticism it encourages in New England, is regarded not only as harmless, but even as not standing in the way of a most cordial alliance with Great Britain.
