'A Death. On tbe.l8.h inst., at her home in Lynch? burg, Mrs. F. J. McLeod {nee Miss Manie Hudson.) Mr. H. I*. Darr didi at bis borne in this crty abone 10 o'clock this morning after an illness of about seven weeks,-aged 62 years .and six months. He has resided in Sumter since 1855, when he removed here from Charleston, which was the place of his birth. Mr. Darr was a practical printer, of more than average proficiency, ind always felt a pride in his. profession in which he was a good manager. He has been connected with a number of papers^-in Columbia, Charleston and Sumter-as proprietor and printer, and was at the time of his death the senior pro? prietor of the Sumter Advance, which paper he established in 1881. He was, previous to that, part proprietor at different times, of >he Sum? ter Watchman^ Thc Sumter Sews, and The True Southron of.this place, He was a Royal Arch Mason and a member of the Knights of Honor, and bas been for ?many years a mem? ber of the Episcopal Church. He was a man of warm heart and quick impulses, and leaves a host of friends to cherish his memory. .The funeral services will take place at the Episcopal Church at ten o'clock to-morrow ! morning, and friends of the deceased and of the family ar% invited te attend. The remains will leave thr house at half-past nine. Sam Skinner, an industrious and thrifty colored man of Rafting Creek, died after a few hours' illness one night last week from some violent stomach ailment.

These circumstances, in connection with the further fact that be has heretofore been the victim of incendiary acts, it is thought war? ranted an inquest in bis case, but which was not held. . ?? m m mm^~--. A Glorious Commencement. It is with.proud satisfaction that we speak of the grand commencement of the Sumter Institute of 1888. It was complete in every respect and it was crowned with success. This institution of learning richly deserves its laurels and the Old Palmetto State is proud of it for the vast amount of good it is ac? complishing in the advancement of education and refinement in ber borders. It is needless to say that Sumter is proud of the Sumter . Institute because that was demonstrated by the unabated interest and enthusiasm mani? fested last week by our citizens tn the com? mencement exercises. which was* grandly brought to a finish on last Wednesday even? ing. The local correspondent of the News and Courier writing of the exercises of the com? mencement says : At the first notes of a march by Mrs. McCalluni the pupils of the Institute marched into the hal!, the smallest first, and ranged themselves at the' back and on the wings of the stage. Some very pleasing in? strumental performances by the Misses Gregg, Howard and* Delgar followed. The salutatory was then read by Miss Mamie Edmunds. It was a well-written composition and very feelingly delivered. Miss Fannie McKagen ulayed on the piano "Der Zuller Nacht," and'-Miss Emma Walsh sang "Saved from the storm." Both pieces were rendered with marked ability. The Hon. J. S. Verner then introduced the orator, theRev. N. M. Woods, of Columbia, in a very happy little speech. Mr. Verner de? scribed the reverend gentleman as born in Kentucky, educated io Virginia, and married to a South Carolinian. Mr. Woods took for his theme, "Fidelity to duty and its sure reward." The address, which lasted about three-quarters of an boor concluded with a forcible panegyric upon fidelity to duty as the surest way of obtainiug temporal and eternal reward." Mr. Woods isa finished orator and a clear reasoner, and embellished his address with many pleasing and appropriate anecdotes. His oration was one of the ablest ever delivered in Sumter, and ought to-be published in full. An instrumental performance by Miss Mamie Edmunds followed, and- theo Miss Annie Graham delivered one of the best, roost touching and well-written valedictories we have ever heard. It was full of excellent thoughts clothed in beautiful language. TheRev. N. ,W. Edmunds then, in a few appropriate remarks presented diplomas to the six graduates, as follows : Miss Annie Graham, M ?mie Edmunds, Katie McLaurin, Faunie McKagen, Hannah Fraser and Vedie Anderson. The* "Good-night" chorus was sung by nine young ladies, and the exercises were over. Alumnae Association. On Wednesday morning, June 14th, a bus? iness meeting of the Alumnae Association of the Sumter Institute was held, in accordance with a call of the President, at Institute Hal'. The meeting-was called to order hy the Pres? ident, Miss Mary White, and after the reading of the minutes of the last meeting proceeded to business. Nine new members were elected and'en rolled. ' Upon a motion to establish a scholarship in the Institute there appeared to be a general desire among the members present so to do, but only after considerable discussion and forensic display (?) on tbe part of some, were the details of this important and worthy ob? ject finally disposed of. It was decided that the scholarship be for the 'erm of two years, embracing the junior and senior years of the collegiate course, the choice to be made by means of competitive examination conducted by the Principals of the Institute. The Prin? cipals themselves generonsjy propose to bear one-half the expenses' incurred in supporting this scholarship. At this stage, a letter of salutation and congratulation was received, accompanied by a basket of beautiful pond lilies, sent asa token of love and esteem. It is impossible to re-prcduce the letter-it must be seen to be appreciated. Upon motion, a committee was appointed to return thanks and a notice of its reception accorded a place of specialem! nence ic the minutes of the meeking. The excitement attendant upon this cir? cumstance having subsided Hon. Jos. H. Earle, of this city, was unanimously elected to deliver the annual oration before the Asso? ciation in 1889. It was ordered that 500 separate invitations be obtained for the next celebration, Mrs. Murray and Miss Solomens being appointed a committee to attend to the printing and dis? tribution of the same. The members were informed that all fees d>re the association must be paid before the 1st of January, and that no further notice to that effect would be given. Officers for the ensuing year were elected as follows : President-Mrs. R. A. Brand. Vice President-Miss Adelaide White. Sec. and Treas.-Miss Bec Blandicg. There being no further business ihe Asso? ciation adjourned, subject to the call of the President, and repaired en masse to the dining ball where refreshments had been pre? pared by the city members of the Association. Here, amidst an abundance of cake, sherbet and cream, remembrances of by-gone school days were discussed and enjoyed until noth? ing remained to be told and each and every nrember departed with the renewed convic? tions that "Alma Mater" was indeed a name to be cherished and loved. The Cotton Tax. Correspondence between Senator Barter and Dr John H. Furmon. UNITED STATES SENATE, WASHINGTON, D. C. June 7, 1883. Dr. John II. Furman, Sumter, S. C., MY DEAR SIR: Yours of the 9th ult. was received. I agree with you that the Cotton Tax ought to be refuoded, but have no hope of living to see it. The amount of the tax collected was between sixty and seventy mil? lions, and unquestionably ought to be restor? ed to those who paid it. We have made nu? merous efforts in that direction since I have been in the Senate, but every time it has been defeated. Perhaps, after those of us \uao are now living, are dead and gene, li^ the ?French Spoliation Cairns, it may be grudg ingly doled out to those who come after us. Yours very truly, M. C. BUTLER. SUMTER CO., S. C., June 13, 1888. General 31. C. Butler. Washington D. C., Mr DEAR GENERAL : Yours of the 7th inst, has been received and I have to thank you for your promptness in r?plyiug to mine of the 9th ult. I think, General that you did not look thoroughly into the history of the so-called cotton tax, for instead of the amount collected being sixty miflions, it was nearer two hundred millions, if I am not misinform? ed. The amount which went into the ?. S. Treasury was about sixty millions, that col 'eeted about one hundred and ninety-five; [ the difference being due to the opportunity, which was not allowcd'to pass unimproved, for much good stealing. The tax commenced in Oct., 1865, and end? ed in Oct. 1868, being three cents on every pound the first year, two the second, and two and a half the third ; thus you will see bow the enormous amount was aggregated. I write from memory and therefore may not be perfectly accurate. And it is a remarkable fact that among all the causes assigned for the impecuniosity of the farmers of 'the South ibis one bas never been referred to, I mean tbe abstraction, by unjnst taxation, of this enormous amount from one industry, that of cotton growing, in three years. Was it not enough to bankrupt any industry in the land ? It would take too much time for me to enter into all the details of this matter now, but I shall do so at some future time. I am glad that you agree with me as to the justness of our cause. I am sorry that we differ as to our ultimate success. But I i?ould call your attention to the story of Robert the Bruce and the spider ?S narrated by the Great Wizard of the North in his "Tales.of a Grandfather.'^.. Keeling assured that when the "Gallant Butler" is aroused and truth and justice and the good of h's brother farmers of his own Southland a?e concerned he will never show the white feath? er, hut observing a "masterly inactivity'? until Cleveland w ns by a grand majority, he will then strike with his good claymore, ai d strike to win. Yours very truly, JOHN H. FURMAN. T?IBUTE. KNIGHT'S OP HONOR HAU., \ SUMTER, S. C., June 18th, 1888. j At a regular meeting of Sumter Lodge Knight's of Honor the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted : WHEREAS, It has pleased the Supreme Dic? tator 'of the Universe in his infinite wisdom to remove from our midst our beloved bro'her, Past Dictator SAMUEL M.
