Walker, ?Evans per portions of Georgia and South Carolina great damage was done to the corn and cotton crops, and the frnit crop W.BSS?80 materially injured by tho heavy I frost of toe 2?h. 1 . Local Iteras. . On Sunday morning last, Father Folchi, a-young Italiaapriest o!" Charleston, who now does missionary service in Edge field,'said Mass in the Catholic Church of this place; and in the afternoon a large congregation assembled to witness the beautiful and solemn-rite of adult .baptism, FathertFoichi expounding the rite and its symbols with great clear nessi Considerable repairs have been made* lately upon the roo^ and other parts of this handsome Church, andan elegant new carpet has been laid upon the floor of the chancel. On the 4th >**f June, whioh falls on Wednesday, Father Folchi will again be in Edgefield, when a solemn Requiem Mass for the soul of the late Dr. Bermingham, who may be called thefather of the Church, will be sung. ?The Sabre Club held' its monthly drill on Saturday last-a good turn-out and a lively day. No races however. In the afternoon, amid much fun and merri ment, a indi was raffled-quite ?.fine looking bull. Young Atkins, one of the leading Sabreurs, won him ; and strange to say, he turned out to be not a bull but a steer, which is only another proof that " all that gritters ' is not gold." In the latter part of May or first of June we are to have another grand Tournament and Ball. Something to look forward to ! Marble*-playing, the players ranging from youth to hoary age, is now the amusement on our sidewalks. Mr. Dick Anderson is more popular than ever at the -Ryan Hotel Bar, and his fresh Lager Beer is now the town talk. Edgefield "(viii have at least one repre sentative at the Vienna Exposition. Mr. M. A. Markeri, one of our most esteemed and popular citizens, designs making the Great Exhibition the occasion of ?visit to his Fatherland. He will leave us in a few days for New York, whence he wiU sail to Liverpool or Havre. It is Mr. Markert's iutention to be absent some five months.. Ho has not promised to do so, but we, hope-and we know every one will join us in the hope-that he Will send us back^letter every week. Friday night last was severely cold, and Saturday morning disclosed a heavy frost, thick ice, and gardens terribly damaged. Irish potatoes universally cut down ; beans, squashes, and cucum bers killed outright ; corn blighted, and everything yellowed and set back. Cot ton a good deal injured, but not disas trously. And so also of fruit. The de mand for fresh garden seeds within the last fonr days has been enormous. A few days ago, we are told, Milos Yeldell, the yellow man who is in jail charged with stealing Mr. L. R. Tillman's money, and who still swears vehement ly that ho " found it," espied on the pub lic square our late County Treasurer, and, standing in close proximity, the present County Treasurer. Hereupon Miles, leaning against the iron bars that so ter ribly wound his pure soul, sang out in lastly tones that reverberated magnifi cently around the square: "Here's the place for you County Treasurers ! Here's the place for you !" This was a sort of vulgar rebuff to the Treasurers, and they incontinenti"? had business in other quar ters of the town. Miles "knows how it is himself,"-and many who heard his exclamation remarked that, for once, he was not far from the truth. Capt. Eichelberger, ex-County Treasu rer, has returned homo from Columbia. We understand that he has made a par tial settlement with Treasurer Cardozo. On Monday last, just as the dry weather had begun to tell oa growing stuff, there fell a gentle rain. Ou Tuesday we had still more-falling beautifully. And as we write, Wednesday forenoon, it is cloudy and damp, with every prospect of further showers. So the season may . be called a fine one hereabouts. The Case of Capt. Bart. N. Blocker. Our compatriot, above named, for years past a citizen of Burke Co., Ga-, had a hearing before the U. S. Court in Savan nah on tho21st April. It will be remem bered he was arrested some six weeks back upon a charge of Ku Kluxism. However, we should not say "had a hearing," inasmuch as the Grand Jury found " No Bill." The' negro witnesses failed to link their lies, and Capt. Blocker returned quietly to his home Our friend was mu'jh favored in this matter by able legal advisers-eminent lawyers giving him the benefit of their time and talents without fee or reward. . The German Festival in Charleston. ? The Germana of Charleston, a body of people Very much to be honored and'ad mired, held high festi\?al list week-the national amusement of target shooting and enjoyed themselves as only Germans can-rationally, aesthetically, enthusias- | tically, without strife, confusion or vul garity. .The arrangements for their an nual celebration were thorough and com plete, . and carried out without mar or mishap. The salute of? cannon on Monday morning ushered in the carnival of joy, ind without let or hindrance the festivi ty and mirth continued unabated for five days. ] Among no people is the union of fes tivity and solid virtue more beautifully 1 blended than among the' Germans, nor the equipoise of business and pleasure better sustained.

HEAVY FROST.-A heavy frost fell in this latitude Friday night, and garden vegetation yesterday morning was con siderably cul down. Accounts from the adjacent country represent the crops as presenting quite a sickly appearance in consequence of the cold snap.
