Binding fragile, but intact. Please see photos. This item was first published in Albany in 1825 under a slightly different title. Tibbits argues that there should be no conflict in economic policy between agriculture and manufacturing interests. Agriculture is greatly assisted, benefited and extend by manufactures. Thus, tariffs, though designed to protect infant American industries against cupidity and aggressions of foreigners, also improve the position of farmers. The prejudice against manufactures display by the southern, or tobacco, cotton, sugar-growing states, is unwarranted and unreasonable. Tibbits boldly attacks Adam Smith, Ricardo, and Say, Ah, Dr. Smith, had the English legislature followed your advice they would never have had the overwhelming capital, the irresistible means of production, the unparalleled national strength which they now possess. .
