With all Difference 10 the views Of the Hon

The comparison unfortunately operates quite
as pungendy backwards as forwards. Who

that the Globe endeavors TO associate both the

Yet it seems both are obnoxious 10 the s,r

guagc) of "epery supply which the soil will

Is it democratic 10 encourage the south to
diminish the production of cotton, and put
herself upon short commons 7" Democracy
protects the greatest good Of the creates,
number. Is it the greatest good of the great
est number to lessen production, or is it the
greatest good OF the lesser number? In thi,
point of view, suppose the south should dm-
nish her cotton crop from million and half
bales to one million. "The price being more
enhanced than the quantity would be dm-
nished," who is benefited by il? Is it the
consumers, the people at large, whose troubles
and disorders we are trying TO heal or is it
the southern planter alone ! But we by no
means admit this Dutch paradox, that d.
minution Of production is an increase of
wealth The south may produce a million
and half without any danger OF glut She
has done it, Let her now reduce the amount
to a million. We will venture that the mar
ket will be supplied, just according to the de-
mand, from other quarters. If the supply
then equals the demand, the price not being
enhanced when the supply is full, who will be
the losers The south with their most profit
able crop diminished, and no enhancement of
price, or the consumers

We had an opportunity yesterday of conversing
with gent eman from Charleston, who described
in most affecting manner the scene on board the
Philadelphia boat Charleston on her way south, du-
ring the late gale. All hope of safety was gone.
Such wasdhe seventy Of the tempes, that it was de
termined TO run the boat ashore, bul she was found
manageable. The scene was near Cape Lookout
and fortunately in the attempt to her ashore the
boat was protected in some measure from the waves
by an intervening strpof land and The anchors were
let go in IL faihems water. All believed that the
boat would go to pieces as soon as she struck and
the passengers male and female secured themselves
with ropes to the different parts Of the vessel to pre-
vent being washed away, and 10 save themselves by
floating on fragrant Of the wreck One gentleman
on board, Southern planter, babe adieu 10 his son.
