The commission appointed by the government to Inspect this coast,has been along tt tor the past few weeks, working hard onthe barren sands of the beaches, ‘LAYING THE LANDMARKS pf protection for the future, aud resting here and |. there at pleasant seaside places. No more desolate spot can be imagined than a “peach” along this coast. Covered over with cedar ’ push und noxious weeds, with bills of sand scat. tered here and tnere and deceitful, marshy patches bnat are inviting to KNEE-DEEP WET AND MUD, these beaches are deterring to travellers. But worse than the sand and the wet are the ‘‘ticks,’’ the “green-heads,”” the mosquitoes and the snakes, all of which abound in too plentiful profusion. ‘The ‘ticks’ tick you painiully at most unexpected times, stick In the clothes, worm their way into the flesh and stick there, ana while you are endeayor- ing to extract them from eltuer clothes or flesh you have to bear the well known sting of the mosquito and the bitter bite of the green-nead during the operation, . Wht along the mainland, though rongh enough, there were not many difliculties to contend agatnst, but after leaving Cape May City and reaching Cape May Court House the scenes became changed from Bummer joyousaess to bleakness and isolation, THE ROUTE then lay along the edge of the coast from Ludlam's to Peok's Beach, theace to Cedar Grove, Atlantic Cuy, Biigavtine Beach, Short Reach, or Little Egg Harbor, and Long Beach, a most da igerons part of the coast; thence to Barnegat, Island Beach, Squan Beach, Tom's River, aud tnence to Loog Branch. here are several preity SUMMER RESORTS ALONG THE BRACH from Cape May to fom’s River, Passing over a few places of less Importance we come to ATLANTIC CITY, Which 13 quite a goodly sizet town and well patronized this summer, It has, of course, a num- ber of pretty cottages; put these for the most part Qo not run along by the beach, as at Long Branch, being more in the tatertor of the city, as at Cape May.

At the .arther end (or rather the nearer When coming from Uape May) of Long Beach, dwells the Keeper of the station, near which tne Kate Smith came ashore last winter witb the loss of mine lives. In speaking to the surfmen of that une fortunate occurrence there was of course only an additional argument afforded by the conversations for an increase of stations and crews aloug the beach. Along this beach, as nas been said, porttons of wrecks are frequently visible. No pains have been spared in plauniug the guarolapsbip of nia part of the coast. We have traveiled it all over on the beach by wagon in order to measure it, the Mes be.ng ascertained by countung the revolutions of one of the Wagon wiceis. At the other end of the heach ts another house, one of the old two that are nine ities apart, the keeper of which also runs the hotel, and lias not had much experience In lLe-saving apparatus. AMONG THE SURP.iEN anout the place was one old man who was really the only person of reasonable memory to be found in tnistower region. Toe following conversation was helu with hia:— HERALD KErORTER—Do you remember the names of the Vessels that have come asuore on Long Keach during five years past? SURFMAN—I may remember some of them. There Was the Adola, the Moses Van Name, the ship Joseph Weir and the Kate Smith last wiater; | can t re- member any In 1870, but ta 1849 we had the James Carstans and the Jacob Vaughan; in 1563, tue James Porte: in 1967, the U. Barter; In 1866, the Samael Lockwood; in 1865, seven vesseis all came ashore together. The crews were saved iu every insiaace, as far as] can recollect, except in the case ct the Kate Smith, KEPORTER—Have there been no shipwrecks within your recoilection utteaded by loss of life, except the wreck of the Simth? SURFMAN—Yes, sir; there have been many, but some of them I can’t remember, 1 remember the wreck of the emigrant snip, POWHATTAN, in 1855, when over three hundred lives were lost. Many of them are buried aro.nd nere, some over youder, Opposite the house, The morning aiter tie Wreck oue poor fellow was fouud dead in the busnes up on the veach. He must have made a desperaie effort for his life, and would, of course, have been saved had there been any help atali near, 1 re- member, too, the WKECK OF THE ADELAIDE, in 1859, when five tives were lost. A curious cir- cumstance about that shipwreck was this, that the captata’s daughter was suved, As the story goes, she, with her brother, had been standing on ths deck just as THE GALB was setting in and he told her to retire to the cabin, which sne did, The vessel, unable to Weather the storm, turne: over, aud in such position was Tound hext morning by a gentleman rexidiog on the beach, bis geutleman, whte surveying the wreck, HEARD SOME NOISE in the bottom of the snattered ship, and, procuring | a handsaw, immediately cut open that part of the | dotcom whence the noise proceeded.

I understand that is a barr er to getting work in the station—at least it has Often been so in the past. ‘The interview here enied, the old man hoping that he might be one of next winter's crew. THE RECOMMENDATIONS TO BE MADE. The resuit of thts Commission's labor will be to put the itie saving stations on this Coast in such @ condition that there shall be no Cause lor complaint in the future. THE HOUSES will m many instances be changed to better loca- tons and a numb er ol new ones erected.

GeeENsroro, N. C., July 26, 1871, The fight on the part of the convenionists for constitutional reform, and of the anti-conven- tlonista (radicals) against it, grows hot and bitter as the day of election approaches. The feeling of the majority of the people, particularly the tax- payers, beiug decidedly in favor of the prop»sed changes in the constitution, the radical oifice- hojders and their supporters havo resorted to every known dodge to defeat the Convention. They are prospects of success. In the event of being unaole to prevent the assembling of the Convention by polling a majority of votes against it they are at majority of anti-convention and milk-and-water conservative delegates, with a view to control that body when It meets, Failing in either of these two schemes, they boldly announce their intention of calling npon the federal government to forcibly pre- vent the meeting of the Convention, a AN UNCONSTITUTION AL BODY, Now, the meaning of an unconstitutional body in North Carolwa is nothing more or less than a body which 18 apt to root out all the incompetent, cor- | Tupt and depraved radical office-hoiders in the | State—principal among whom 1s the entire judi- clary. ‘nis threat of federal tnterierence 1s, 1 fina, too, having its effect among ‘the people, who are earnestly in favor of the proposed constitutional changes. No people in the South have a greater ities than the white citizens of North Carolina. ‘Thetr timidity in this particular amounts almost to ACTUAL COWARDICE; for while there are no grounds upon which the United States authorities could interfere with the here have become so utterly demoralized in tae past few years by oppression, plunder and tyranny on the part of their radical rulers, coupled wish tne presence of United States troops, that it can scarcely be sald they longer ap- preciate thetr rignts as American citizens, All the arguments oi the radical orators against tue Conven- | vombshell in the ranks of the conventionists watch scattered, frightened and demoralized them; but side the chances are yet against the radicals, and in all probability the Convention will be calied bya majority of ten thousand votes, Demoralization does not, however, pervade every class. It 1s con- fined to the poor and mostly ignorant of the people, and some of the conservatives on the stamp meet these vain threats of the radicals in @ manner that is gratifying to hear, and makes one feel hopefully for the success of sound republican doctrines, North Carolina 13 fully restored to her rights in the Union, and that py the radical party. Then if this is the case the President or Conzress cannot have tne lina any more than in those of Ohio or Pennsylvania, This catiug of @ eonvention purely for purposes of constitutional reform does not come under either the Force bul or the KU KLUX LAW, and therefore the will of a majority of the people not come 1n conflict with the constitation or laws of the United States. After referring to the above facts Mr. Speaker Jarvis, of the Honse of Represen- tatives, wno 1s making an active canvass of the entire western sectron of the Siate, says:—“The | great body ot the American people recognize the fact that North Carolina has been fully restored to the Umon, and every time the administration tight ens its grasp upon one of the reconstructed States its hold is 1ooseued upon the con Adence of the people of the Northern States, who are becoming alarmed at the rapid strides they ,are making towards ® centralized despotism, I think tie party: in power 1s beginning to learn this lesson, and, unless vent on thelr own destruction, will profit by it But If tne government of our fathers has been so perverted by this party that its power may be used to prevent the people of @ State from altering or amending their constitu. tion wien they think their safety or happiness re- quire them to do so it is better for us and tie whole American people to know it now, so that at the comtag national election we may at the vailot bOX Correct the evi, change our ruers, and bring the gove nment of wonted channel,” These senuments, if they could be properly exp essed ever) where in the State, would triainph over the threat of federal interier- ference, for winch there is uo ground whatever but that it Serves tue radica’s In this campargn, Who are making @ last and desperate eifort to huid on to the ollices already in their possession for years by reae son of the provisions of the present constitution, THR 1s8URS comprising che adjustment of the public debt by means of a fair Compromise with toe Stat.’s credit. ors on @ just aad ejuable basis: the reurgauization of the judiciary, Which at present ts corrupt, paru- RAD and degraded; the abol.tiou of a towusnip sys tem, which 18 burdensome, entailing an expense on @townsmp greater than that of a county iormerly, ple will be forced to repudiate their deb: sooner ‘han pay the taxes—these nave all been fully ex- platned in the HERALD im & previous lever, in every Instance the ra iicals avoid Luese real, live issues, while they deal with questions notat all pertineat, such as ihe peril of the p or man's homestead, ine rights of the colored man, the expene of the Convention (which is nothing compared with the anvual taxation the constliutioy — jine oses), and Jastiv, the threat of Juned States government against the meeting of the Convention, Provisions are spec ally made against avy iniringement of the homestead clause, the c.vil and political rights of the colored man, and tue laborers’ lien, in the act calling me Coavention; and laws of the United states, and whether protected by one party or the other male bat litte auer- ence— they Could pot be tairinged upon, There are now five Supreme?

The campaign im North Carolina on the Convention subject 18 now raging with all the m- tensity of FEELING AND EXCITEMENT that a political contest could engender, The election which will dectde whether that body shall meet or not will be held on the first Thurscay in August, the 8d proximo, and It has attracted an unusual degree of attention, especially of the republican press, throughout the country, Governor Bragg, besides being now recogniged as Ube leading member of the bar in his State, 16 chalrman of the State Demucratio | Executive Committee, and is also a candidate of the conservative party in the county of Wake lor the ; Coavenuuon. It 1s charged by the radical party and | its press that the inient of the conVentionists ix (o aboiisn the Lomestead clanse, abridge the suifrage 01 the coloreu race, aud repuitiate the debt. ‘Governor, wnat are the real objects of this con- vention ?” I asked, “The real objects are charged by he opponents to be revolutionaty; but the real purpose 13 to gee ni | of the objectionable features of the consutution which was iraued by carpet-baggers and ignorant colored people, ana Which ts not suited to our pres- | enteondition, It is generally conceded by a large Majority of our people that many objectiona.je chunges have been maue im the new cousutution, whic do not suit tuem. ‘The vcenolders are op- posed Lo the holding of the conveotion, because it will, ifthe movement be succevsiul, remove tiem irom oflice, ‘The principal power 18 at present in | their hands, for the judges hold their places lor iong terms, the Governor for four years, the sheriifs lor jour years, and the other oiicers tor various terms, | Others taan the o..cehuiders are opposea, because | they claim that i¢ would be unconstiutional., A side | Issue Which Is Luportant 1s this:—The -present con- | si.tuitou provides that there shall be # homestead exempwion of $1,)00 on real estate and $500 on pei | Sooal estate. There isa question a3 to its validity against existing debts, many claiming that it 18 awiunsé tne constitutional law of the iand, provid. Ing that no Staie has a right by law to impair the obligagons of existing gontracts, But it was de- cided by the Supreme Court of the State, contrary, no douvt, to toe opinion of two-tnirds of the Bar of the Scute, that the homestead exemption, was not Uncousiiutioual. Tae Convention 1s opposed by those who upuold this decision, Who say tout the Couvention will reorganize the government, elect | new Judges, wao will decide differently, and in tois | Manuer they try to aifect the minds of those people in debt and who are but too willing to escape through the ineans of the homestead exemption.” “Are ;OU salislie jovernor, as to the legatity of this new cali lor a Convention?” “Periecly so, sir. The ablest lawyers in the State are satisfied as to its lewulity. Under the ; Consutution there are two express modes of cal. @ consention, Ons by a vote of two-thirds an three-fl.tas of two Legisiaturea respectively, in Which cas@ the amendments adopted are not | needed to be submittea to the people; and tne secona by & vote of two-thirds or the twe houses of the Legisiature, in which case tae amendments | must ve submitted to the people for ratification or Teecuon, the power by which this election is held | 13 grauted by a large majority of the Legt lature, | tovugh not by a two-third vote.
