The German citizens of Orangeburg, according to their preparations, gathered on Wednesday lest for one of those happy merry-makings for which their nationality is so justly Iu nous. The day was not suspicions but thu lowering clouds hud no effect to damp the srdor of the pleasure seekers. At an early hour in the morning gay groups were gathering, und by vehicle or by the bout of Capt. IIalley, were eoou conveyed to a beautiful spot on the tuiwk of the river, ucar thu Andrews Fish trap. ? The sceno was one of rare bouty. The dark greenwood, somhre tinted from the el.Hided sky, forming the background to in pieturo of festal reunion and huppi tuces. Tho rustic table und seats, the groit| ? ill bright utlire seatod iu ' - 4wn* fouri clusterings and in every ] variety of xttitude, all expressive of re jkisc and all going to make the hartnon tons wholo of S most beautiful and peace r'ul picture. No or augemcnt hud been neglected, every prcp.irution for convey ance, for provision, for enjoymeut was complete and ample. The hum of mer ry voices soon made the shaded recesses ol the forest resound with laughing, sil ver ?ehoe? that floated dofrti the waters of <i '/""Li'. ? .ii. i.. ????? ? '11 ?.' the F.disto. And Ml sic icul her charms to the happy scaoc. v V Under tho tree* the violiugavo forth soft melody s^d Voices mingled in the songs of Fatherland. Oh ! how dour the associations that were atirrcd be neath those Germau hearts as tho songs of their native hills, sung in a straugu laud rose and swelled through the forest and nwoke to thrilling life the memories of the far away. The morning hoars sped away beneath these influences most happily, and Din ner was announced. Jl is unnecessary to remark fliut 'his was a most subs taut ial, ahum-ant and delightful affair, und wus enjoyed to .the lullest extent. Hut alas ! tho clouds, which all the morning had been tinging the latidicipe with a dull, lowering, lo ideal tint, were unable longer to contain themselves or to refrain from a closer narticipatiru in the festivity and rushed down most en thusiastically und mingled most familiarly with the celebrants. Of course there was cringing aud crumpling of attire and soon the bright V-isious of loveliness which a moment be fore lighted the landscape with their beauty, seemed to have melted like so much sugar from the earth. It was tuuiultuously resolved to ad journ to meet a-.'in in the Elliott 11 ill at .in early hour of the evening, nod the bright party scattered aud by jou vcynueo or by boat returned to the city, damp in pcrs n but with no damper on their spirits or resolution to carry out the ptogramtue ol* festivity. At an early hour in the evening the Klliott 11.ill, which had in the interval been transformed from a court room into n brilliant scene adapted for the unity revels of Terpsichore was ablate with illumination mid tilled with j a bright tompunv awaiting the signal mtis of music to commoneu the pleus j nutest part of the programme. I . 'Turns not lone hefVY- the music ii'vl. led all to engage in the merry dame and tho invitation was Accepted C'oh ?worr>. We'll, of course the hours mov ed on rapid wiug. 'Ihe programme of the evening was varied by SOnga aud speech. German songs again were sung to pleasing accompaniment im I at an inter j l?de in the dance the party was called j to silence and attention. Mr M. Alhrecht then announced that the audicueo would Lo addressed by Malcolm I, drowning, Ran. Mr. Brown ing was introduced and delivered a bri f addro.-s. Augustus 11 KnowltOU, was nex| introduced who delivered an address in j German which was received with nothu Mastic applause by the audience who iieurd in the tones of their native land the words of congratulation aud oulogy [ of their glorious Fatherland. Next ('apt. .las. F. [alar was brought before tliOMiudicncc. and delivered a very neat, pretty und appropriate address, which was received with font in tied up. plausc. Then soilga w:re -sdng and the ilnnco was resumed And the evening paved brightly uway. A spirit of unalloyed enj >ynt snt characterised the occasion. Old and young, matrons and maidens enjoyed themselves to the full. The pleasant occasion was n success and will, wc believe pruvu the inaugura tion of an annual (Jormhn Fest, which wi l" continue and increase in its extent nut! beauty until Orangcbuig ran boast ol her proud and beautiful SCllUT/.FN FKiST. A BEAUTIFUL KI'lsOKK of the evening's entertainment was a graceful and touching letter wiittcu b) Mr. Philip Kuhn, au old and futhorly citizen, the reading of which produced a marked sensation through tho audien cc, some of whom Wi re jven effected to tours at the tout hing ullusions to nation ul associations with whitdi the letter was replete. The letter had words of congratulation woll-wishos and fatherly counsnl to tho sturdy men the mothers and the child run. .of our good German people. It was signed "Pupa Kuhn" and was a beautiful souvenir of the first Gorman festival, destined to be the forerunner of many such pleasant occasions.

DKSTttvoTtVR Ham, Storm.?A fearful hail storm passed in the vln'nity of Hennettsvill, cm Sunday, the 11th instant. The stones were very large, varying in size from a bird'.-* egg t>> a gnnse egg and great damage was done. The wheat crop socmt to have suffered tuo>ta hogs i ecse, chickens and turkeys wen killed, glass windows wore broken, the fruit was nearly nil beaten from the trees, groves were trimmed up, and pine limbs were cut from the trees. The storm arose in the Wast and moved Katstwaid over a track about, three miles wido. Some of the stones wore as large us eight and leu inches in circumference They struck the ground with such force that they would be buried several inches in the earth All accounts agree that it was the severest hail storm ever kyown in that section of country. At a rehearsal for ?un entertainment, some time since, a little five-yoar old Besssc was placed upon a p at form to reei c a short .poem. She conimonded very drnvely, but her eyes wanderroh all around the Church gathering more aftd more of disappointment info the face. Sunn the lips began to vniver. and the little form shook with subs. Her father stepped frnni behind n pillar, from whence ho had bedn watching her, and taking her into his arms said '?Why, darling, whaj is the matter. I thought my little my little know the vcyscs so well.', ''So I do, papa; but 1 could not hoc yrjVI. Let tue stand whore I can look right into your FiCo, P'P?, a id I w in '1 be afraid."
