What was the position of the Southern states on the issue of tariffs?
The Northern states had put an end to the practices, at least officially they did, but most of the Framers from the Northern states were just so opposed to slavery as were some of the Framers from the Southern states too. However many farmers from the Southerns were still financially dependent on slavery and wanted it to be continued, so the Southerners believed that each state had a right to decide on the issues itself.
What is cottonocracy?
Cottonocracy refers to the wealthy class of Southern cotton plantation owners who held significant political, economic, and social power in the antebellum South.

Why were Southern states not as progressive as the Northern states?
They were agrarian, not industrial. Also, following the invention of the cotton-gin, which made the cotton-farmers enormously wealthy, they were inclined to put on an affectation of ancient landed nobility, who did not encourage their sons from dirtying their hands in trade or industry. This kept the South even more backward.
