Tariffs on imports, which the South needed, having so little industry.
Later, South Carolina became the first state to secede, following Lincoln's election on a ticket of no new slave-states.

What was the cause of South Carolina seceding from the Union in December of 1860?
South Carolina never seceded, or it would not be a state today. However, towards the end of J. Q. Adams' presidency, Congress passed what is known as "Tariff of Abominations". The South hated this, because it caused less profit for them. South Carolina completely disregarded the tariff. South Carolina also said that if force is applied on the state, that they would secede from the union. Hope this helps! Source: History Class + Did a 4 page report on this topic.
