THE HAMILTON JOURNAL Subscription Price $1 A. Year. 3. L. SSSTNIS3, rtJBLiSSES. Hamilton, Ga., August 36,1881. Ottr College. A member of ttit- editorial oftbe Columbus Enquirer, who Visited Hamilton last week, makes tlie following excellent notice of our college. The people of Hamilton "ere. badly th-apoin'ed, and regretted exceed¬ ingly to learn that the bill for es¬ tablishing a branch of the Agricul¬ tural college at Hamilton bad been withdrawn. They find no fault with their immediate represent*" tives’in the matter, but on the con trary, think they did the best they could. Wo can think of no town in all this section of country that . affords such inducements for the location of a school of that charac¬ ter, and if a bill is pass'd locating ft*branob oollege in each congres¬ sional disfict, Hamilton will make a strong effort to secure it, aud there is evefy probability of snoesr. There is already one of.the largest, if not the largest wooden buildings in the slate, and it is erected on an eminence overlooking the town. The house is 00x90 feet, with two elorics and a large cupola and ob¬ servatory on the to)), measuring sevenfeet from the ground. On the first floor aie six iargo rooms with a ball ten feet wide running entirely through the building from oast to west and ano'her from north to south. On the second floor is a large chapel 00 by 90 i with iwo ante-rooms in the rear. ‘ This building was erected at a cost I of near $15,000, and was recently purchased by ten of Lite prominent ciiiz 'tis who now propose to give it to the stale, provided the college is located at this place. Every in¬ ducement and advantage that could be offered U seenn can be found at Hamilton 1 Th" course pursued by the Enquire .

IX.~N0.33. Will Prices Go up or Down. In the present rage for specula tion in produce of every kind, the follow ing explanation of the meth¬ ods of speculation, from the pen of >Ir Orange Judd, editor of the Atmrican Agriculturist, will prove ot'interest to the readers of die Journal. If some of our friends will ouly read it closely it will re move a a almost universal idea that speculators arc ail trying to magnify the e:z" ot crops, There must of necessity be as many int ores'ed in proving t he crop short as there are m proving it large, white the inter¬ est c»f the producer is all upon one side. A* a consequence the aggre¬ gate of a crop is almost always lar¬ ger than was estimated. Our friends would do well to give heed to ihe advice with which the arti cle concludes. During two or three years past and never so greatly as now, the methods of the Stock Excha'ge have been introduced in’o the pro¬ duce markets, and hundreds of men, in leading cities, n itahly in Chicago, Toledo, St. Louis, Balti¬ more, Cincinnati, and New York, are billing millions of dollars upon tho probable pres of wheat, flour, corn, oats, laid, pork, bacon, eic. To illustrate: Mr. A. offers to de¬ liver to Mr. B. a million bushels ot No. 2 R d wheat at $1 22 per bush¬ el, ou the 31st day of August, though lie (Mr. A.) does not own a single bushel of wb at, and does not expect to. Mr. B. takes the offer, and makes a deposit of a small portion of the price or “mar¬ gin.’’ In this case Mr. A. is said to be “short," and Mr. B. “long.” itfr. A. is “short” of what he has agreed io deliver. If tho closing sale of thi- grade of wheat on Aug- 31 is only $ 1,20, Mr. B. pays Mr. A. 2 ecu’s a bushel, or $20,000. But if the price is *1 25, Mr. A. pays Mr. C. 3 cents a bushel, < i i,ooo. U-uiTy no wheat is aeUif.i!y deliv, led. t'oinei im-s, howevt r. il there is a limited supply ol wheat available, arid Mr. B. ha* cipiial enough, he secretly buys all there is; ho gels up a “corner’’ in - wheat; und when settling day j Collies, he may r qaim Mr. A to deliver the when', or lie may gel others to try to buy i', while lie refuses to sell until $1 39, or $1,4u, or even $1.50 is offered, and the price oft he day is fixed at that rate. In the last named case, Mr. A. would have to pay him the dif¬ ference between $1.22 and $1 50, which on a million bushels would be 23x1,000,000 or, $280,000. If, on tbe contrary, (be price could be beat down on the settling day to $1 00 per bushel, Mr. B. would have to pay Mr. A. 22 cents a budi tl, or $ 220 , 000 . We have named only two individuals, but there arc hundreds or tlu.us.ands ot persons doing the same thing, some belting oil a few thousand bushels, others on hundreds of thousands, and a few heavy operators on millions. In UrneB of excitement and activity the speculative “sales” of wheat during a few days amount to more than the entire surplus crop of the country during a year. The oper.. a’ors are in two cia^ses, those like Mr. A are “shorts,” and those like Mr. B. are “longs,” Precisely the same operations are takina . place with reference to other grades of wheat, corn, oats, lard, pork, eto. The same man often operates in suvcri| , klllds ot pro d„ce. and may bc (lf ono Hvd » loIlg .. ot another. One speculator will often be short for August delivery; long for September; and short or long for October, or for “the year.”.... The leading facts and circum¬ stances on both sides are set forth' above. The great oper.itors in tjrain nml other prorlucts, bollt .-Lull.-,” and “bears,’’ have immense sums at stake.

S >, the only safe rule for us is, to sell when ready, to take as little risk as possible of damage in storage; and being ready, and having sold, to simply say, “I have done the best I could.” Then if prices go down, say, “Well, I was lucky.” If they go up, “I migh' have done better to hold on, hut if J had, it might have been different, and so I will not worry over it. Seasonable Hints. Mr. Eoi roit:—Please ioand me space in the Journal to speak the following to the public. 1 nonce that the people are paying tbe best attention to the working of the roads, while the rust is working the cotton, nnd the cotton merchants arc working their figures, ami the grocery merchants are posting up th'-ir books, and the laud lords are getting their rent J notes to¬ gether, for they have smelt cotton opening. Well, the above is true. Rut will the renters and the land lords begin to make contracts for another year, probably about December? Well, that is one of the gieat ivils that ; Abels both ctiflie and the land lord. Why? Because contracts should be made on or Indore lay., ing by time, so ctiffie can take some advantage ot building houses, and preparing and sowing turnip patch., es, and to btl'ld stable: and corn cribs, and prepare for making guano at home, and then we will begin to save mo:.q£.— We all make nieney but a ycry few save money, and why is tln«. In the first place we never trade with our employers or land lords so.-n enough to prepare and sow small grain early in the fall, and in the second place w e never try to raise our meat at home. And why not. B'cau-e we have lulled to raise the corn to feed the hogs on. Why huvayou not rais¬ ed the corn? The reply is the hind Ih too poor, y I i ill" Ian I i poor, but w !i >l m : i t trool ? -* einsoil has been woin out. — planting it in co’Uin so mm,a, to t° l ,!, y forjthal we might have miser! at home. And why do we n raise all mcessai y things at ......•«? Thera are several lea-uns. S nii" as follows: Rent notes is said to be duo on or before the fi st ot Oo toller, and our notes with our mer¬ chants the same and guano notes on or before the 15'h ol Oc ober. Now who can pay from one to two and a half bales of cotton rout, and and meet the above demands on a one horse farm, at the maturity ot said notes, nnd pay the 20 h of the cotton for ginning, I believe intelligent farmers will gradually grow out of debt and begin to make money again in a tew years. This county needs more raisers ot corn and more hogs aud more wheat and oats, and less cotton, and lictter stoek, and inure soghura and then there will he better schoo s and more money in ihe hands of the farmers, and this is much need¬ ed among the farmers, I think ! that, it is very hard and simple ot the farmers of this country to wait for a better time to change their modes of farming. I am not afraid to say that cer tain parties said that they will an . swer an y letter that I write through the columns of the Journal. j tnerefore pronounce the above a dare. I admit that I h ive made some mistakes and broken senteu ces, but never the less, I ever re¬ main vours mo-t truly, J. T. M, Thousands of carp. Early last spring Capt. Jos.

If m-.IS-C, Gv A Faithful lleprencntativc. We copy the following Utter from the Columbus Enquirer, for i be purpose solely of showing the opinion of eminent authority con¬ cerning the management of our Col¬ lege bill. There is no one who knows Capt. Stsnfo d who doe* not believe he lias done everything possible to obtain the passage of bis hill, and knowing his energy — labor vine.I omnia—some of us arc still hopeful. Enquirer-Sun: I regret to see that your Hamilton Correspondent intimates that the peo; !e of that good town think that, the Hon. L. L. Stanford has not done Ins full duty m withdrawing the bill to cre¬ ate a branch college of the univer¬ sity at Hamilton. The fact h, as the record shows Mr. Stanford has done more than his duly, tor be has three times in- terposed his saving band and snatch ed the bill from the deadly grasp of the house, whose vote was about io kill it, so far as the pres¬ ent. general assembly is concern.. ud. When the bill was first called up for final action it provided on'y for a branch college at Hamilton. Messrs Harris and Stanford spoke earnestly m us behalf, but the vote ot tho house was against the bill. Before the speaker anno u no w | ( |u> rt . BU lt; however, Mr. Stan secured a recommittal of the bill tor ihe purpose of amendu < nt, thu saving ils life ihe li st time. The amen led hill came up lor final ac:io i again, with a branch college at Rome included. The bouse pressed the matter to a vote and were about to kill the bill, when Mr Stanford, aided by M 1 '. Garraid, of Mu-cog.a- ( \ ho lias been a firm friend of the hill) be. tore the vote was announced, once more saved it by having it tabled for a fill or house. A few day* ago—on Thursday — the bid in ih.it form, euiivu up tor ooiisi.Jer.nion, aud uf.er sonic dis.. on suui was put to a vote.

(]lK . atlon;lI C( „ iun i ltef> w )iich has biietofore favored its passage. Thus you will see that Mr. Stan¬ ford has beeii womlrfu'ly vigorous and sticceaslul in keeping his bill alive to tne present time, and ward¬ ing off three separate death blows aimed at it by the bouse. Virtu¬ ally, it was riji-cfed three times, yet the result was not announced. The constitiuiot, of tbe State says rejected bill cannot be reintroduced Bv saving his bill by the “skin ol Ins teeth” Mr. Stanford has seetir ed four chances instead ot one to get the bill passed. 5n an experi¬ ence am. observation of twenty years I have never tur n a ^,hi!l so often snatched from impending de¬ struction. In fact, it was seriously consider C<1 l '. v 8, ' VKral 'nembers, on Friday, to introduce a resolution giving Stanford’s bill as many lives gn a cal fui:n j, which would enable hint to save the bill H* times more from , final defeat. .
