convinced the cherokees to relocate in atleast two years Trail of
Tears

Tariff of Abomination By: Will DeJacimo Maguire Gonzales Gio
Mejia
Slide 19
What is the Tariff of Abomination? The Tariff of Abomination is
another name for the Tariff of 1828. It was a protective tariff
passed by congress on may 19, 1828. It was designed to protect
northern manufactures. It placed a tax on imported goods from other
countries.
Slide 20
Northern States The northern states saw this as a huge
advantage because foreign goods would have a higher price tag due
to the tax. People would be more intrigued to buy the American made
goods for a cheaper cost than the more expensive British
goods.
Slide 21
Southern States The southern states apposed the tariff because
the goods they imported from England were now costing more. To
counter this, they rose their price of cotton that they sold to
England, but were warned by England that they would be boycotted if
the price wasn t lowered.
Slide 22
Resolution On July 14, 1832 President Jackson signed into law
that the Tariff of 1828 that placed a tax on imported goods was
un-constitutional. Resources: www.princton.edu www.angelfire.com

Nullifaction Nullification and the South Carolina Secession
Threat
Slide 24
South Carolina Threatens to Secede >In 1832, a new tariff
lowered duties by ten percent. The problem was that California
believed that the tariff was still to high so they decided to put
Calhouns nullification theory into practice >A state convention
then passed a law known as the ordinance of nullification, and
banning the collection of duties in south Carolina. >They than
threatened to secede from the union if the government enforced this
law. >South Carolina then withdrew its nullification law and
averted a national crisis. >Jackson showed throughout the
conflict that despite his support for states rights he would use
force to preserve the union.
Slide 25
Nullification Northern manufactures favored a high tariff to
protect their industries from the foreign competition. Southern
sold and other crops to New England opposed a high tariff on
imports. In spring of 1828 Jacksons supporters demanded changes in
the tariff rates proposed by president John Quincy Adams The tariff
of 1828 became known as the tariff of ambitions. One person against
the tariff was vice president John C. Calhoun. Calhoun thought the
tariff was unconstitutional and even wrote an exposition to protest
against it. He argued that each state had the right to nullify an
unconstitutional federal law in its own territory. Calhoun's idea
surfaced again in 1830. When a senator proposed that sales of
public lands in the west be halted, senator Hayne of South Carolina
advanced Calhouns nullification theory.
