ASBURY PARK AND OCEAN

An Interesting Letter From Col.

AsBURYy PARK, n. J Aug. 18th, 1873.
Correspondence Of ihs InielHgenosr tt H.
have been here over two weeks, and
think come OF the brethren might like
to hear something from Asbury Park aud
Ocear Grove, this great Methodist resort.
Seven years ago Asbury Park was q
Jungle OF small osks, pines and bramb!e.
Mr.. Bradley, an enterprising brush maker
Of New York, bought il, cleared out the
underbrush, laid out lots with wide
avenues and streets between, and CON-
menced improving them on q liberal
scale. The growth Of the place, like that
Of its twin, oeean Grove, has been wonder
fuI.Itis now magnificent summer resort,
with tasteiu! cottages, ample sea beach and
excellent hotels. Its about equi'distaut
from Philadelphia and New York.
The park and the grove are In many
respects similar and yet in others very
different.
OCEAN GROVE
was first planned 10 be a camp meeting
ground, where the faithful might come
10 pray and praise, and at the same time
enjoy the beauties OF nature.
II was to be an improvement on the
old time campneeting ground where the
campers took few Of The simplest
uecessaries Of life and spent q short
season in great discomfort for the
good Of their souls. II was divided
into painfully small lots and mar
row Streets where the people might
camp in tents or build small cottages as
they pleased. Some few Of the avenues
are broad, while the others put me in
mind Of the narrow streets Of St. Angus
tine, Florida, and the houses are so ar.
ranged on these streets thai the kitchens
Of some houses look up into the dining.
rooms Of their neighbors, without so
much asEayipg please excuse my back.
In the center Of the grove 4 spacious
tabernacle il erected for religions servi-
ces, capable Of seating three or four thou
sand persons, all,under the shade OF trees
on the east side Of the tabernacle; and a
preacher with good pair Of luugs can
Teach len thousand pair Of ears from the
pulpit. The comforts Of board and lodg.
irgs are furnished by hotels and numer-
Gus cottsges that take boarders; and even

erected take boarders who have no objee.

The Speeches Of GIIe Green
hackers.

At the meeting Of the groenback
club Tuesday night Mr.. II. II. Hayes
spoke at length on the resumption
act as being ruinous to the country.
His arguments all the way through
were good. He advised the club how
ever to commence their work in the
State of Tennessee, and then branch
out in the Government. He spoke of
the ring thieves and money powers Of
the State bringing it to ruin. lie re
fcrred to the State bonds and declar-
ed that a majority of them were
fraudulent In this Mr.. Hayes is
mistaken. He is probably not aware
of the fact that the so-called fraudu-
lent bonds were nearly all funded BY
Brown, Porter and the other swim
dlcrs Of that stripe. The bonds that
are out uow sire the bonds that were
issued bctyrgth HE var and there is no
dispute Or to thcif genuineness. And
now for the people Of Tennessee to
say they will pay nothing ON them is
dishonest, and will disgrace the
State and each and every citizen for
all time to come. Mr.. w. D.. Mitch
ell, in his address; referred to the big
papers in the cities as being run by
the money powers to deceive the peo-
pie and that theywere being publish
ed,at $l.00 per year in order to get
the farmer to take them. He advised
the people to support their home pa
pers that they might be able to stand
"a fight against the money powers.
Mr.. II. W. Smith spoke of the
high taxes in the State, and referrcdto
the fact that greenbacke were plenty
at the close Of the war. Also that the
people could not expect relief from
either of the politicA parties. In re
ference to high ;Xes Mr.. Smith is
wrong. He is KSobably not aware
that the State of Tennessee has lower
taxes than any other State in the
union. Low taxes is what brought the
State to disgracc--it is not able to
pay anything it owes on that account.
AS to relief from the political parties
he is about right-especially the
Democratic party. That party prom
Used to run Tennessee honestly, aud

Reputation IN TENNESSEE.
Democracy Responsible for the Disgrace

-
A Knoxville correspondent of the
New York Tribune writes: 1t is a his
torical fact that at the commencement
of tho late rebellion in the South, that
part of the State Of Tennessee lying
east Of the Cumberland Mountains re-
manned loyal to the Union. Neither
threats from Richmond nor C%onfcder-
ate bayonets were sufficient to drive
these loyal mountaineers from their
steadfast devotion to the Government
of their fathers. When the question Of
secession came up for action at the bal
lot-boX in February, 1861, it was oppo-
sed In the most determined manner by
such political leaders as Andrew john
sun, w. G.. Brownlow, and Judge Mel
son, all new in their graves, and not a
single one of all the thirty counties in
East Tennessee gave a majority in IA
vor of secession. Not a single seces-
sionist was elected to the proposed Sc
cession Convention, and the people by
an overwhelming majority said they
wanted no convention held. Later,
when the armed hosts of the rebellion
were quartered upon them, and the ma
chinery of morclless conscript law was
put into operation for the purpose of
forcing them to fight for Il cause which
they hated, under the most aggrava-
ting circumstances thousands Of them
He'd from the country, crossed the
mountains on the Kentucky border
and joined the Union army. From the
first to the last about 10000 men enlist
ed in the Federal army. Of the old
and middle-agcd men, such as Trew-
hit, Montgomery, ~Thornburgh, father
of the present Representative in Con-
gress from the Second Tennessee Dis
trict. and many others, were arrested,
cast into prison, and suffered death for
their principles.
lSincc the close of the war, East Ten
nessee, with but an insignificant PRO
portion of colored voters, has been
largely Republican. The first District
has been represented one term In Con-
gross by . Democrat, owing to disscn-
tions in the Republican ranks. The
Second District has been as uniformly
Republican as any districtin Massachu-
scttS, and Is now. That part Of East
Tennessee included in the third Dis
