Sir.-Alfred Brand has brought to onr office ; the first cotton bloom we have seen this sea Qaite a number of visitors are in Sumter and were here last week, attracted, we pre sume, by the commencements of our schools. ^Ifodjgiog from the gathering at Justice San der' 8 office yesterday, there must have been business of importance to attend to. A new post-office called London, has been established at the lumber mill of Messrs. Lon don Jk Campbell, (formerly Barber's) on the \*VC. * A. B. R., in this county. Ber. H. F. Chreitzherg preached to the j children of his Sunday School on Sunday afternoon, and held no night service. - - - ,. * . { Two alligators have .recently been killed j on the farm of Mr. A. W. Brown. Tbe rep- I tiles were crawling about on.high and dry j land, some distance from any water. A new residence, being erected for Mr. j Dtagle on the Site of tbe old one, is nearing i completion, and wiH be ready for tbe occu- j it within a few days.. J Tbe servant's room on tbe premises of j E. S. Carson was entered on Sunday j it while the family was at supper, and a Jot of the best clothes of the servant girl : sfoleci. j - The hop, at Music Hall last Thursday ! night after tbe close of the Distribution exer- j cises of St. Joseph's Academy, was, we learn, j largely attended, and much enjoyed by all present. Tbe law against dogs running at large is being enforced. Those owning dogs are re quired to pay 50 cts. for tbe privilege of keep ing them, and two dollars, if allowed to run at large. - $B the afternoon of yesterday a difficulty arose between John Belser and Tom Wilder. Vor a time oaths and imprecations were abun bot the police came in for a share of ,-ao-d the two belligerents, together DaveSummers, went to tbe lock-up, I rbeace they were liberated by friends j Vbo went on their bonds. I I The crowd from Sumter who went to Cam- j den test week give conflicting reports of what j they saw, and must have got considerably ! mixed. One visitor says be went all over j the town, and will vouch for the fact that there is no monument there. Another says be saw two monuments. A third says he saw one about two feet bigb. We. are going j to send over a committee of investigation to j look into the matter. They all agree upon one point, and that is the overSowrng hospi tality of tbe Cam den people. Several months ago some one entered tbe room of Mr. Wigfall Phillips, of this place and stole a suit of clothes, and succeeded in getting off without leaving any clue by which the theft conld be traced. A few days ago Hr. Phillips unexpectedly recognized tbe clothes upon a negro who gave his name as Carolina Cane tuck. Upon being arrested and taken before Justice Sanders, Canetuck de- ; nied stealing the clothes, and said that he got them from a negro named John Davis, -who is now in tbe Penitentiary. Canetuck was committed to jail until tbe ease can be properly iartstigated. St. Joseph's Academy Commence ment. . The Annual Distribution of Premiums, and the exercises attendant thereon, took place at St. Joseph's Academr last Thursday even ing, and was attended by a large and appre ciative audience. There were six graduates, whose names ap pear on the programme, and of these, Misses Agnes Heriot and Emily Mikell had been selected, respectively, to deliver the Salutatory and Valedictory. Both compositions were highly complimented by those who enjoyed the pleasure of hearing them, as exhibiting thought and careful preparation. Miss Mikell, on account of recent family affliction, was not present, but her composition was read by Miss Sallie Bennagan is a most ac. ceptable manner. Bishop Northrop and Father Quiglej, of Charleston, were present, and distributed the honors and premiums. The programme, which we publish below, wai quite successfully carried out, and the respective parts performed by the pupils were characterized by ease, thoroughness and grace, which must have been gratifying alike to the friends of pupils and teachers: Entrance March?By Miss Loula Bultman; organ accompaniment by Miss Sallie Henna gan.

Northrop, of Charleston, paid j j Sumter a visit last week for the double pur- i pose of witnessing the Distribution at St. j Joseph's Academy on the 21st, and also to j administer the rite of confirmation to can- j didatee for membership in the church. On Sunday morning, assisted by Father ; Gleason, of St. Peter's Church, of Charles ton, the Bishop celebrated High Mass at the j Church of St. Lawrence. At 10 o'clock he j preached to a large congregation, his text j being "Faith, Hope and Charity." In the afternoon be delivered another address, the subject of which was "The Sacraments," and dwelling more particularly on the Sacrament of Confirmation. At this service the rite of confirmation was administered to twenty-one persons?eight males and thirteen females? quite a large number of them being converts to the Catholic faith. The Bishop's visit here has been greatly en joyed by all who met hirn, he having made a very favorable impression, personally, both upon Protestants and Catholics, and it is hoped that he and Father Gleason will soon pay us another visit. Davidson College. The Commencement Exercises of this in stitution took place last week. There were twenty graduates. Of these, L. W. Dick, A. C. Dick, and T. P. Burgess are from this section of country. B. F. Wilson, Jr., a brother of our townsman, H. F. Wilson, Esq., delivered an oration, aud received the Fowle Medal. L. W. Dick received the orator's medal. The Board of Trustees elected three new professors, one of whom is W. D. Vin son, a brother of Capt. A. P. Vinson, of this county. Mr. Viuson is a first honor graduate of Washington and Lee University. A small party from Sumter, composed of Rev. H. F. Chreitzberg, Dr. A. L. Blanding and Messrs T. T. Upshur, Winfield S. Wilder, J. D. Wilder and Don Blanding went on a two days excursion to Waccamaw Lake last week, and were joined on the last day by Messrs. D. Jas. Winn aud N. G. Osteen. The weather was delightful, and fish were caught in abundance. Base Ball. The Base Ball match beeween the Palmet toes of Ca tu den, and the Eurekas of this place takes place this afternoon. The following are the members of the Camden club: J. W. Malone, P. A. B^oswell, J. W. Villipigue, E. M. Kirkley, L. Brooson, J. Marilla, J. B. Wallace, J. Wilson, J. A. Witkowsky, W. J. Wilson. Indicted for Selling Whiskey. Upon the affidavit of Albert Sanders, Z. E. Walter was yesterday arraigned before Jus tice Sanders for the illegal selling of whiskey. Upon investigation, evidence of guilt was found, and Walker was bound over for the October Court. Walker is a member of the present Town Council. Law abiding citizens are patiently waiting to know what action the Town Council will take upon the petition recently presented in regard to the unlawful sale of spirituous liquors. Something New. Messrs. A. White & Son, Insurance Agents are prepared to take risks in a ?6,000,000 company against tornadoes, as well as fire.

Wilson, Esq., has been appointed and com missioned Assistant Adjutant General of the , Third Brigade, Second Division, to ?11 the vacancy. Mr. A. A. Solomons has marked down his stock, and is offering bargains in order to . make room for Fall Goods. See his adver- jT tisement. i < The Sumter Institute. The Commencement Exercises of the Sum ter Institute began with a calisthenic ex hibition at the Hall of the Institute last night, which was the best demonstration of the kind we have seen. Quite a large audi ence was present, and the girls went through every manouvre with a precision which was charming. The movements, though simple, were exact, and were manifestly the result of protracted and careful training. The essays will be read to-night, and the Literary Address and presentation of Di plomas to graduates will take place to-mor row night. [For the Watchman and Southron.] BEHOLD THE CONTRAST. A Baptist Preacher Opposing Pro hibition. A Baptist minister, Rev. R. B. Brooks, writes to the Cartersville Free Press in oppo sition to prohibition. His experience is an edifying one. Here it is: "I joined the old Washingtonians in the town of Canton, Cherokee County. It flour ished for a season and like Jonah's gourd withered and died. The next I united with was the Sons of Temperance, and like the seed upon the rock, soon withered. The next in order was the Good Templars. I labored in all these societies faithfully, num bers flocked to them, and took upon them selves solemn obligations, binding their honor before their God, that they would not drink, make, sell or buy any intoxicating spirits; and I think that I am safe in saying that nine out of every ten violated their sol emn obligations, and, like the sow, returned to their wallowing iu the mire; so with all my labor and anxiety in the cause, I am fully of the opinion that I did more harm than I did good, and I am fully of the opinion that all the efforts and restrictions thus far have proved a failure and have been productive of more harm than good, and there is more whiskey drank and more drunkards in our country than before these humane societies and law restrictions were inaugurated ; and, judging the future from the past, I think that as these restrictions increase, drunken ness will keep pace with it." Who is R. B. Brooks? He may be one of the Chicago preachers, or a preacher who (like some of whom we have heard) gets his in spiration from the rum cask. We do not know him personally nor by reputation, and not having any knowledge of the gentleman, he may be one of the Whiskey Saloon ficti tious characters, without church, locality, or being. Not so with Dr. Tbos. Guthrie of Europe. He is known by reputation as one of Eng land's most eloquent Divines. What has hs to say f "Have I not seen many, whose spring bud ded with the fairest promises, live to be a shame, and sorrow, and deep disgrace ? And, though it were revealed from heaven that you yourself should never fall is there nothing J due to others? Does not that bloody cross, with its blessed victim, call upon every Christian to live not to himself, but to think of other's things, as well as of his own? Every man must judge for himself; to his own master he standeth or he falleth. But i when I think of all the beggary, and misery, and shame, and crime, and sorrow, of which , drunkenness is the prolific mother, of the j many hearts it breaks, of the happy homes it j cnrses, of the precious souis it ruins, I do not hesitate to say that the question of ab- i stinence deserves the prayerful consideration J of every man; and that, moreover, heap- j pears to me to consult most the glory of God, the honor of Jesu?, and the best interest of j bis fellow-men, who applies to all intoxica- j ting stimulants the Apostolic rule, touch | not, taste not, handle not. In regard to no ! sin, can it be so truly said, that our adversa- j ry, the devil, as a roariug lion, walketh about seeking whom he may devour." Will the paper, so eager to parade before its readers, Mr. Brook's deliverances, publish Dr. Guthrie's? No 1 Mr. Brooks could, perhaps, have made the j same statement in a milder form concerning those who have solemnly assumed the vows j of the Church, who after partaking of the { cup of the Lord, drained the cup of devils? j "Ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, j and of the table of devils." Therefore he j he had better quit preachiug?be may make j the last end of that man worse than the be ginning. What he has to say of temperance efforts may be said of the efforts of the Church to save sinners. Go back and read his own word and substitute Church for the temperance societies named and what earnest thinking man will say it does not apply. "As restrictions increase" sin "will keep pace with it." Ergo?disband the Church? annul Sabbath laws?strike down your Court Houses?burn your laws and statutes ?for as restrictions increase crime will keep pace with tbem. CRITIC. ^??maggj??p?? THOMAS BAKER MIKELL. Died at Davidson College, N. C, June 12th, 1883, aged 20 year3. Young, talented, ambitious, sincere and truly pious. Cut down in the flush of young manhood, with I his desire for knowledge fully appreciated and J encouraged. Leaving the happy home circle, which he loved so devotedly, he took up his abode at that fountain of intellectual attainments, where he drank wisdom and understanding. How bright his prospects appeared ! How his noble aspirations seemed to be urging him forward to a long life full of joys, honor and triumphs! How natural would it have been for him to think, "there is" time enough yet" to think of spiritual things. Not so with him : in youth he ''Remembered his Creator" ?and had enlisted as a Soldier of the Cross. Thoogh young, be saw the sorrow and desolation brought upon his fellow-men by intemperance, and without solicitation?dis- j regarding the worn-out argument that "The | Church is Temperance Society enough," he voluntarily took upon himself the vow of total abstinence for life. In bisdeath, Sumter Lodge No. 8,1. 0. G. Templars, has lost a promising member; the Church one who would have been "a bright and shining light;" Society a cheerful and noble companion, and his family aloviug and devoted son and brother. Therefore be it re solved. First, That a blank page in our minute book be inscribed to his memory. Second, That a copy of this preamble and these resolutions, be furnished the papers of j the town for publication. Third, That the Secretary be instructed to furnish the family of our deceased brother with a copy under the seal of the Lodge. Respectfully submitted, WrM. Ii. CUTTING, C. M. HURST, 1 C. E.

In the fore- i aoon Capt. E. "i. Moore paid out Si,200 to lis bands and.in the afternoon a brigade of! :hem came into to town and revived the J ; ueartjyi^H merchants. ^ Sfr. W. S. Joyner, Charleston, S. C, says : | i 'I have taken Brown's Iron Bitters for heart j lisease and am now well." We are indebted to Mr. W. L. J. Shan non, Superintendent of the Sliiloh Baptist Sunday School (colored) for a report of the exercises of the said school on Sunday last. It seems that almost the entire day was de voted to the children. At night, a service was held, at which speeches and recitations were the order, interspersed with songs. Rev. B. Lawson has returned from a visit to the North, whither he went to seek for aid in erecting a new house of worship. Last Thursday was the longest day in the year. Before we can turnaround twice we will be noting the shortest, and Christmas wili be upon us. A Connecticut man has iuvented a machine for counting money. Editors have long felt the want of some such labor-saving machi nery ; and now if the Connecticut man will put an attachment on his machine to enable a man to get money as fast ns he can count, he can sell the contrivance for seven dollars and a half. Dr. M. M. Croom, Dardanelle, Ark., says : "Brown's Iron Bitters is the best medicine in the world and is effecting miraculous cures." _^_ "Stop the press," yelled the country editor to the consolidated devil, compositor and pressman, who had just started in on his pile of 300 blank sheets, "there's a man who come a mile and a-qnarter to subscribe for the paper and bruug his turnips in advance, and I want to give him a personal." Watches and Jewerly repaired in best man ner, and promptly by C. I. Hojt & Bro. The new postal law makes the taking of a newspaper and the refusal to pay for the same, theft, and any person guilty of such an action is liable to criminal proceeding, the same as if he had stolen goods to the amount of subscription. Success. Whatever you do, by all means try and do it well. The best preacher is he who saves the most souls. The best lawyer takes the best care of his client's interest. The best farmer makes the largest araonut of bread. The best and most reliable medicines are those that will do just what they are recom viended for. "Dr. Boykin's Worm Killer" will destroy and remove worms. "Every body's Pills" will act gently, mildly, and with certainty, on the liver and boicels. Try them.

Kendall & Co., Gents : Having used a good deal of your Kendall's Spavin Cure with great success, I thought I would let you know what it has done tor me. Two years ago I had as speedy a colt as was ever raised in Jefferson County. When i was breaking him, he kicked over the cross bar and got fast and tore one of his hind legs all to pieces. I employed the best farriers, but they all said he was spoiled. He had a very lar^e thorough-pin, and 1 used two bottles of your Kendall's Spavin Cure, and it took the ! hunch entirely off, and he sold afterwards for I Si,800 (dollars.) I have used it for boue I spavins and wind galls, and it has always [ cured completely aud left the leg smooth. It is a splendid medicine for rheumatism. I have recommended it to a good many, and they all say it does the work. I was in Witheriugton & Kueelaud's drug store, in Adams, the other day and saw a very fine j picture you sent them. I triM to buy it, but could not; they said if I would write to yon that you would send me one I wish you would, and I will do vou all the good 1 can. Very respectfully, E. S. LY.MAN. KENDALL'S SPAYIN CURE. Ciucinuati, Ohio, June 3, 1882. P.J. Kendall & Co., Gents : Being a suf ferer from the rheumatism, I have tried a great many remedies for that complaint, using everything that I heard of or nay friends knew of, and being treated by the best physicians in this <*ity without effect. I j had become discouraged arid had concluded there was no help tor this disease, when I fortunately met your agent, Mr. John Fish, who told me it was unnecessary to suffer any more, as Kenkall's Spavin Cure would do ihe business, and as I was of the same profession he presented me with a bottle, which 1 used, and I must say without any faith, iu one week I am able to w;>lk without a cane cr any other artificial help. I don't know that the Spavin Cure did it but this I do know 1 will never be without Kendall's Spavin Cure again, as I thoroughly believe it deserves its popoularity, and has unqualified merit.
