Gen. Wade Hampton presided. and Gen. T..
NJ. Logan delivered the principal address. In
his welcoming speech Gen. Ham ptou unfurled
the old banner of the legion, and said it would
never be unfurled again in war, and as the flag

centennial been greeted by forty million Ameri-
cans, and even BY the Eogsh, who, one hun

through the solid earth like an auger. In one

TUESDAY, JULY q.

The New York Journal of Commerce gives a
word of caution to those who may be carried
away by the excitement 10 the grain market
1t says:
There is nothing in the line of facts to Justify
the high prices for grain which many are anti
cipating. It s true that in the best of seasons
Great Britain does not produce all the cereals
she consumes. Part of the supply comes from
France little from other Eur )pean states
when they have surplus, no uncomfortable
quantity from the Black Sea, some from her
from the United States. This years foods on
the Continent will cut off a large part of the
French surplus, 30 that this source of supply
will be less available. 1t is possible that France
herself may need before the year is out an ad-
dition to her product for her own people. The
English harvests are much later than ours and
the long continued wet weather and humid at
mosphere have diminished the quantity and In
jured the quality of the yield. In other parts Of
Europe the weather has been q little less propi-
tious thun in former favorable seasons. In this
country we have surplus from each of the last
three years, and an unprecedented harvest for
gransries, or diminishing particle of the ap-
parent supply awaiting home consumption, we
can furnish from our Atlantic and Pacific ports
enough to fill the threatened vacuum and leave
much still unsold. It is an old trick Of the for
eign consumer, when he needs little addition
to hiz surplus, to raise clamor about it, create
an excitemens and put up the price. He under
stands human nature, and knows what will be
the sure effect of such course. Especially is
he secure Of his aim when money is very sbund-
ant. People have capital piled up in bank, and
do not know what to do with it. They are
tempted by the promise of speculation in grain
But the Englshmsn has still surplus of grain
on hand. and his own harvest, such as it is, now
coming in for his use. He can afford to be pa
tient. He laughs inwardly at the excitement as
he sees the whole world, outside of his little
island, preparing to stock his grsneries. He
cares not how high the price at which they pur-
chase it He knows that when he comes to buy
tho price will be what he chooses to make it, as
he can take advantage of the overstock and Sc
lect his time The producers who hear of the
expected demand, VINO witness the exctemen t,
and who therefore hold On to their harvest in
the hope of fabulous prices, will be more disap-
pointed yet. the happy spectators are those
who profit by the first upward turn, and stay
out for the rest of the season. The wise farmers
grain, and pocketing their sure reward, leave
the more sanguine to fill the gap that is sure to
sink many fortune before it is fairly bridged."
