Tariffs divided the country since the founding of the United States of America. Northern states had factories which wanted protection from foreign goods. Southern states had cotton and tobacco that they wanted to sell to Europe which paid them higher prices.
The Commerce Compromise addressed the conflict between Northern businessmen and Southern plantation owners over the issue of tariffs.

Tariffs, or taxes on foreign imports, can be helpful to a country's economy by blocking competition from other countries. However, often when one country places a tariff on foreign goods, the country places its own tariff on the first country. Tariffs are not appreciated by the country on which it is being placed.
Tariffs worked mostly (and probably only) for the Northern states.
