8 OUR SUMMER RESORTS. + Annan Paesing Theor ats—To Long Branch on Board the Stearler—The Coming Seasou—Brilliant Prosp.cte—The Stetson House=A World Within a World—Evening. srerson House, LONG BRANCH, June 26, 1869, lt is no great hardship to leave the noise and tu- mult, heat and dust of a great city to pass a few hours in the country or by the seaside, One leaves Dusiuess and its attendant cares and trials without @ sigh eave of reef; stocks are for a time forgotten, real estate becomes of no importance, and gold is only thought of asa thing of yesterday. Happy is the man who can forget the worryments of life for aday; who can give up all thought of annoy ances of the past and the prospect of othera to ‘come; Who can listen to the warblings of the Yeathered songsters of the grove, the rustling 6 the Jeaves, the roar of the waters upon the beach, the jaughter of happy childhood, without thinking of ‘ne unpleasant things of life; or, in other words, who can fing all sorrew to the winds and enjoy a holiday to the country In a rational manner. Such were my thouglts to-day, one of the warmest, most sultry and unpleasant days of the season; and when I learned that the HERALD was desirous of knowing something of how “the scason” was progressing até Long Branch, and that I was to be the lucky one dew taiied to find out, J threw my hat in air, exclaiming, “Yhat’s jolly,” and rushed off to make ail ready ‘or the f eiglt hours of daty and pleasure combipged; *eud ufourP, M, came the deck of the stes ger Mage had the honor of sustaining my welg@a— ue by HO means to be despised, TO LONG BRANCH, by the sea shore hne, is a delightful trip of a latte over two hours. Our steamer had no sooner |packed out irom the dock than we had the beneilteof the light southerly wind blowing, and from a d‘#agree- Lic heat we changed iu an instant, almost, to a most refreshing temperacure, Trae, the day did not prowmise well; a fog, of greater or less der@ity, had shut in, rendering objects at a short distemce even ery obscure, Passing the Narrows it was Very thick, and it only lifted partially between there and the {the Hook, Now all this was wmpleasant; e there is nothing more beautitul or inter. nau lke panorama of the bay of New York on « due, clear day im the summer season.

Our boat was a comfortable one, well fitted and found, and apparently well managed, and waat is better, there was not @ crowd on board. Some litile oppertunity was given to study human nature i various phases. Among our passengers could be found pater familias, taking mamma and the pounamers to the seaside for the season; the steady aainess mau, bachelor of course, of for a few hours for recreation; the dashmg young buck, who seeks @ waiermmg place fora jolly good ume, and jast, but not least, young America in ali bis glory. Of the other sex We have the careful and attentive motlier, the staid maiden lady, the lady with her snow white poodle, the brilliant young lady, who, knowing her a cons, demands the homage of the sterner sex; the blushing maiden of sweet sixteen, and her younger sister of say twelve summers, who, although in very short dresses, is ready for tne at- tentions of the drst specimen of our fast American boys that may cross her path. I cannot refrain from imentiouing one of the sweet sixteen order that 1 noticed particularly. she was as “pretty as @peach,”’ She had an eye as bright a3 a diamond, and weil she Knew how to use it; her jaunty little straw hat, with almost a fathom of blue ribbon flying from it, Was worn with parlicular grace, and, take her altogether, she was one of the fairest of the fair. Of course she had a compauion—and what girl so Pretty would be without one ’—and they appeared mutually pieased with eacu other; her jolly laugh Was pieusanito the ear, aud her roguish look told that tere was mischiel In her composition; and yet, when I saw her shoruly afeerwards in @ carriage, doubtless with her tamily, her demure but stil lovely face Jooked as if soft nonsense poured into ber ear Would be recetved without causing the slight- est emotion, Ob, dear, | thougltt, what @ pity that OULD MLUSt pass away; that old age must come at t, that Lowers so glorious to-day must wither to- morrow, But i'm eit the track. It’s not my province to think of such things. The eight mule ride by rail along the beach is de- Ughtful. You breathe # pure atmosphere, you al- Most taste the sait of Old Ocean, and you feel ready for anything. Away off seaward are the white salis of the inward and outward bound merchantmen, the Baturday steamer, bound South, and strung along gs far as the eye cam reach; here and there a pilot boas can be seen, and the whole view, on and off shore, is lovely, made more so, perhaps, because you are on a pleasure trip and bound to make deformity &ppear perfection almost for the time being. At the depot at last, aud in @ few-minutes more away we go along the clit or beach read towards our hotel, As yet there is no crowd at fhe station (vather too early in the season for that, but enough for com- fort); our drive ts pleasant; hotel after hotel is passed, ef&ich receiving a oo of the passen- gers, then @ load is dropped at @ cottage; you meet many fine tarnouts ou the road, but noth- like what will be seen two weeks hence. Groups of persons are seated in the summer bouses, but as yet they are few and far between, and as you draw rein atthe door of the hotel It is easily to be seen that there will be no troubie in securing a room. THE COMING SEASON bids fair to be 4 most Drilhant one, All the choice and many of the inferlor rooms at the best boteis are already engaged, and from what I can jearn there is Lo more hotel accommodation than wl be required. At present but few oe are here— hardly enough to make a respectable appearance. They are the sensible people, however, waa take tame by the forelock; come early and feel at Home before the rush commences, The few even appear to be enjoying themselves. A croquet party on tie lawn and several parties out driving this noon, aud social groups about the porch Or in the drawing room this ery x evidence of quiet enjoyment. This is what I like, The crowd, the coufusion, the rush, the dress three times or oftener a day, has no charts for me, except a8 & mere looker-ou. There are no hops as yet; no prom- anades or stealing off for a sly flirtation in the sum mer houses after the hurd work of agalop.

The Walkenites ere not, however, 80 proseraptive as the Welisites. ‘Tre former, composed of the whites of the State generally, favor the Underwecd constitu- tuonexpurgated, on the ground that, if that instru-. ment is defeated, Wells would be costinued in hie present position, armed-with power to harass and ‘oppress them; or }f this were not a result Vo whole instrument itself, in all ite hideousness, wouid be forced upon them by Congress, and Wells pommly as Gavertoe. Alabama is @ lesson not to be forgotten, Expurgated, the conssttution ts devoid of neerly all its proscriptive features of the wittces, white it guarantees to the nt every possible right the-whites ever did enjoy. Such is the positien ef the whites. On the other hand, the blacks, headed by Wells and one or two others, favor the constitu. tion in its entire shape—proseriptive features and all; they want ninety per cent of the whites dis. franchised, and the whole native race disqualified from holding oMce. This is actually the case, not- withstanding that even President Grant favors the constitution expurgated. If any doubt ean be en- tertained of this fact the folowing are copies of the tickets of both parties;— WHITE TICKET. For (or against) constitution.

The one of intelligence is alowed by his leaders to exercise Is judgment and discretion as to how he shall vote, whether “for” of ‘‘against” the constitution, and whether “for” or “against? the proscriptive features, The ignorant but well- trained black, to do the bkiding of his mas- ter, simply deposits the ballot placed in his hands by those whom he knows are authorised to deliver is to him, and, despite efforts to produce harmony between the races, the unfortunate blacks are urged to their own destruction by unprincipled and adven- turous —_carpet-baggers, Walker flatly tells the negroes he intends to protect and defend their rights the same as those of the White man; but Wells does not _ tell them the same thing. His doctrine is that they must be placed in supremacy tothe whites, that they must be the law-maxing and governing power, and, in short, it must now be ‘ bottorn rail on top.” ‘This comprises the gist of the speeches made by we gubernatorial candidates, and it 1s easy to judge which, If successful, can make Virginia prosperous and happy. Asan instance of the result of tis, the negroes in this city nave nominated forthe Senate and House of Representatives a ticket composed of four carpet -baggers and seven negroes. ° A curious feature in the campaign is that the whites have but few candidates in the fleld for Con- grees, They have not the privilege of electing men of their own choice who can serve, and thus being without the proper material they have become careless a8 to Who they put in the fleld, at least s0 at present. Probably just as the efection comes oif names will be placed upon the tickets in the different districts, not with any idea of their clection, but simply a8 @ matter of course that Congressmen shonld be voted for. As the districts were gerry- mandered by the convention there would be littie use, aceording to the last regisfration, for though with an overwhelming majority under the former or old apportionment, they could mow Scarceiy elect balf the delegation. The following carefully prepared table from the official registration lists will show how skilfully the last apportionment was made by the radical convention. Of 1867:— This is the registration Cowrea white Maj.

Thus it will be seen that there are nine carpet- baggers, three independent negro and four white, and five Walker candidates in the fleld for Congress, Norton will certaily be elected in the First district and Bayne in the second, with a probability of Fields Cook beating Hunnicutt, who went over to the enemy, in the Third district. All the other can- didates, Doth independent and Walker men, are gentlemen of high character and FSS: who would, no doubt, grace the halls of the national legislature. Removal of a Union General from the Office of Mayor of Petersburg, Va. (From the Richmond Enquirer, June 26.) - General Walter C.

Before the arrival of the committee at head- quarters, however, the orders of removal ap- intment haa been issued aud forwarded. The flat Rett gone forth that General Newberry, whose only fault was sympathy with the downtrodden and oppressed white people of the State, must vacate his position of influence. No argument could in- duce General Canby to revoke his order or reverse his decision, though we understand he gave polite and attentive ear to what the committee had to say. The reason my ED for General Newberry’s removal was the action he took in political affmrs. The true reason may in a few words be stated:—He was de- posed because he ts not a Wells man; becatiee, foreseeing the crushing effect upon our State and ople of the election of Wella, he dared to oppose im and use his infuerice for Walker, Temperance People Moving—Thetr Platform “Total Prohibition of the Manufacture, Im- vortation or Sale of Alcoholic Liquors.” [From the Rochester Unto (democratic), June 26.) ‘We have already alluded to the action of the tem- perance people of this State in convention assem- bled, resolving to henceforth support mo candidate for oMce and act with no party that does not um- equivocally and emphatically declare in favor of pro- nivition, The wor of the resolve ia that inte are “unqnalifedly im favor of the total of manufacture, importation or sale o| liquors,” and their committee is instructed tain the views of the candidates of the.two political parties this fail, and in cage they are notin iavor of “total prohibition’? to call @ Convention for ti pose of making nommations of their own. committee is composed as [olloWsi— 1 het Neary.

The slight fillip that was given to theatrical affairs in this city last week still exerts some little influ- ence. Despite the warm weather, most of the thea- tres have been favored throughout the week with large audiences, the new pieces particularly monopo- lizing the hon’s share of the patronage. ‘This week, between the “wind up’ of old pieces and the production of some few new ones, or, more properly speaking, the revival of oid plays with old favorites, will be likely to keep the theatrical tide in the me- tropolis from reacaiug the “dead level” which so recently threatened it, and wil! in all probability prove suMiciently attractive to entice most of the playgoers who sti remain in town to venture into “some one of “the coolest” (?) theatres in the city. At Wallack’s “the last nights’? of the Lauri pan- tomime troupe are announced, but the closing repre- sentations of “Mother Hubbard” bid fair to be -almost as enjoyable as was tts initial performance. Anew burlesque opening by Byron, entitled “Ru- pert the Reckless,” has been added.to the panto- mime, and will be given this evening for the first time, with the fall strength of the burlesque.com- pany. On Monday next, July 5, the Guuipany now performing at the Fifth Avenue theatre will appear at this theatre in two popular pieces. Edward Eddy, after professionally wandering about the country for months, returns to the city of his earliest irumphs for the purpose of inaugurat- ing a short dramatic season at Wood’s Museum, with a sensational dramatization of the “Wandering Jew.” The piece, witch is divided into a prologue and five acts, is, we believe, to be brought out in a liberal manner, and 1@ interpretation is to be en- trusted to an eiticient company.
