Lot Description
[TARIFF OF 1832]
Remarks of Mr. Knight, On Mr. Clay's Resolution, in Senate, February 14, 1832. N.p.: n.p., [1832].Broadside (545 x 388 mm). 2 pages. (A few tears to folds, with occasional small losses affecting letters.) Senator Nehemiah Knight's response to Henry Clay regarding the Tariff of 1832, a protectionist tariff reduced existing tarriffs enacted in 1828. The Southern states, particularly South Carolina, deemed the Tariff of 1832 unsatisfactory, and Southern opposition led to the nullification crisis.
