That done, I would beg him to remark, that at that date our pro- duction was increasing with great rapidity, because our home market loas rapidly growing, and prices were maintained because our necessity for de- pending on foreign markets was diminishing. Now our production is daily, diminishing, and farmers and planters are compelled to look to short crops as the only means of keeping up prices, because our home market is diminish- ing with the diminished power of producing cloth and iron to exchange for food and cotton.
