f..:..:.. -A . - L i ; iif;-? %S iiBliiL Northeast Georgia was the site of a spectacular gold rush that began in 1829 and lasted throughout most of the century, but at a diminishing rate after 1849. The Federal Government established a branch of the Mint in Dahlonega in 1838; and between then and 1861, when the mint was closed, it coined $6,106,569. In 1862, Justin S. Morrill of Vermont sponsored a bill in the United States Senate to enable each state to found at least one college devoted primarily to the teaching of subjects related to agriculture and the mechanical arts. As late as January, 1872, no land grant college existed in Georgia. In April, 1871, a group of Dahlonega notables formed themselves into a corporation to found an agricultural college in the town and petitioned the Federal Government to transfer the former mint building to them for that purpose. According to the act of incorporation granted by the Superior Court of Lumpkin County, the liability of the corporation was not to exceed $300,000. The act of incorporation was the culmination of a process which began a year earlier, probably as a result of the efforts of Colonel William P. Price, who represented the county in Congress.
