sPATR TAXATION.
How can Revenue be Host Easily ana Eaui-
tably Raised.
Beaufort Orsscen,.

There are over 20, ,O0O, 600 acres of land
in South Carolina, and o tax of I've cerfr
an acre would yield million of dollars,
about the figure of the taxes required.
There are those who say that taxation
can easily drive capital and skilled labor
out, of the country, but it cannot drive
the lands!away; they cannot move or be
moved, or, what is more to the purpose,
be secreted !; that il this State should nut
itself forward as the first State in the
world that had freed capital and labor
from taxatiOI, snch an influx of these
movable and prime elements of wealth
would take place that great tidal wave
OF prosperity s7ouId flow over our i'm
movable lands and multiply their value.
Every sensible man would do his utmost
to make every acre Of land he held pro.
ductive; all that was not would ba so
much space cleared for immigrants, who
would be scared away from very few
acres IN South Carolina By rental of
i've cents or even Of twenty-five cents.
Paying o fixed tax by the quantity and
not by the quality of the land, every
Improvement to 1t would be clear profit
ns far as taxes arc concerned. How far
ali this, or auy OF is, would be realized
in practice it is not intended to discuss
here, but to say by this means, if by no
other, at least what was being done
would Do known, the taxable property
would be set down to o mathematical
certainty, there would be no questions
OF values and no misstatements % to
them would be possible. Ono man, one
township. or one county could take no
advantages of another.
4The. above is from correspondent of
the Aiken Journal and Reviste. and pre-
sents 8 suggestion which If followed out,
If only in part, ,would add greatly to the

Death of President
James A. Garfield.
lie Dies at Long Branch
Monday Night mt 1885.
Vice President Chester A. Arthur
Sworn i'm on Tuesday.
A NATION MOURNS.

At last the trying hour has come,
and President James A. Garfield, who|
was on the ID day of July shot down.
bv an assassin, has been called from
his mission on this earth to everlasting
life in the world TO come. He died at
Long Branch at thirty-five minutes
past ten on Monday night, Sept. 18th.
Ever since the dastardly act of shoot
ing the President, by Guiteau, fifty
millions of people Of this country have
lived between hope and fear as to the
final result of the shooting-being en7
couraged at times by the reports that
the President was surely improving !
and again having all hope die out by|
the announcement that the wounded EX-
ccutive lay in a precarious condition
and thus it has been for the past TEN
weeks. until at last the trying hour has
come. and James A. Garfield, late
President of the United States, sleeps
his last sleep.
Vice-President Chester A. Arthur
was sworn in rs President on Tuesday,
and is now at the head of the nation.
In this city the news Of the death of
the President cast n deep gloom over
all, and yesterday the flags were placed
at half mast, the business houses were
draped in deep mourning, and every
citizen seemed to feel that great ca
lamitv had befallen our prosperous
nation.
The late President was born in Ohio
November 10Th, 1881. His early years
were passed in hard struggle with the
world. In 1859 he was chosen Il,
State senator. On the breaking out OF
the war, he entered the service rs col
onel of the And Ohio volunteers, anC
was i'm the battles of Pittsburg Land
ing. Chickamauga, and at the siege o.
Corinth. For his conduct at Chicka
manga, he was promoted to the rank o.
Maior-General. He was elected TO the
3Sth, 39th, 4Oth, 41st, And, Ard, 44th
10th, and 10th Congresses, and took
leading part therein. In January, 1886
he was elected L. :. Senator in plac
of Thurman, and in November, 1881
was elected President.
