The crew of the schooner Alice Hodges,
Capt. John Beauchamp, which arrived at
Baltimore on Wednesday, claimed to have
discovered a new monster of the deep.
They say that off Nag's Head they saw on
Monday last what first appeared to be the
hull of a sunken vessel, with yardarms
stretched out. The object sank and reap
peared, and waved the arms in such a mau-
ner as TO convince the seamen that it was
alive. They say that it was fully 100 feet
long, and the arms from fifteen to thirty
feet long.

THE DUTY ON POTATOES.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: In your article today relative to tho potato
growers Of this country stronger argument could In
my opinion, be advanced for increasing the duty on
potatoes duty that docs not protect is worse than
no dr. at all the consumers, for makes them pay
unnecessary amount for the article, and has dis
couragng effect upon the producers because their prod
ucts thrown into unfair competition with the
surplus stock OF foreign countries. Whereas duty
that IS high enough to protect enables the American
farmer or manufacturer to sell his goods at profit,
and the people buy at cheaper rate than II the duty
entirely removed
Therefore, II instead of reducing our revenues by
lowering the duties productions Congress would
raise them potatoes and all Others that arc mpcrod
by cheap foreign labor and revise our Internal revenue
system and reduce or remove the duty tobacco, the
people would DO In far better circumstances, and the
country would from the prostration II Is now
