There were no income taxes until the 1900s.

An import tariff is for only imports. Can you please explain how products in the South were EVER federally taxed before the Civil War? You and others keep dancing around this historical inaccuracy.

It seems as if i'm going to have to explain a horse to you.

Horses eat. What they eat they poop out.

Europe is a horse. A tax on imports is the same thing as taxing exports. It's just a matter of taxing the horses head or the horses rear.
