AS yet the ladies have not named Inc
day on which to pay a sacred tribute to the
memory of our fallen braves. The 18th
of April was adopted by general custom
throughout the South, but here last year,
the LIST of May was substituted in lieu, and
the day falling on Sunday, was more gen.
orally observed than customary. Owing
to the backwardness of the season, we
would suggest that the lst Of May would
be soon enough this year. If the present
weather continues, flowers will be hard to
procure on the Goth inst. The day would
also conflict with the anniversary OF the
Odd-Fellows, which will be observed
throughout the entire country. Let there
fore the lat of May be named as the time
when flowers shall be strewn Ger the
graves of the gallant souls who gave their
lives in defense of the lost cause"

THE FROST IN CAROLINA. = TIL

THE FROST IN CAROLINA. = The
Charleston Courier of the 7th inst says:
Our private advices from the interior
represent the recent cold snap as some
what damaging to vegetation. At Aiken
and in that,Vicinity the frost on Monday
morning was quite light, and did no dam
age to fruit or gardens. At Sumter and
points north of that place. there was ice,
and the injury to fruit and gardens is
quite serious. The first crop OF figs was
certainly destroyed-the peaches, in part
at least, have shared like fate-and the
vegetable gardens very much damaged
Particularly is this palpable in the Irish
potato crop, in which the farmers had en-
gagged more largely than heretofore-the
plants six and eight inches high having
been cut down to the ground.

Terrible Accident.

On last Tuesday terrible and nearly
fatal accident happened to a negro named
Nat Malone, at Athens, Ala. The circum-
stances as detailed by the Athens Post are
as follows: Nat was sitting by the fire
eating his dinner, and during the absence
of the cook, which was about ten or fifteen
minutes, he took ft Ito which he is sub
iect) and fell head-foremost into hot bed
of Goals. When the cook returned, she
found him in this fix, with his head almost
immersed beneath live Goals and perfectly
moiionless. She Immediately jerked him
out, when medical assistance was promptly
called. Upon examination it was found
that both eyes were destroyed and his face
aud tongue burned to crisp. Strange as
it may appear, the physicians are of opin-
ion that he will not die. We are informed
that he has always borne the character of
an honest, industrious and obedient ser
want,
