THE IUf TO Tnc MUNCH.
LeaTing New York at 0 a. a. in one of
numerous splendidly appointed steamers,
which are constantly plying between the
city and her favorite bathing resort, the
Writer determined to loam {or himself
the nature of those cliarms and attrac
tions, which have seduced the thief magis
trate of the nation from tho pout of duty.
A stiff breeze swept tho beautiful t«y,
and the sun shone with unclouded bril
liancy as tlie Wt left herpicrand glided
down the North river, her prow pointed
to the Jersey coast. It was Saturday,
rad a mighty crowd of the overworked
denizens of Gotham had broken loose
from the treadmill of business, and re
solved for a brief period at least, to inhale
the pare air of the ocean, and lave thair
fevered limbs in the crested billows of
the bine Atlantic.

creasing and recrossing each other whiten
ed the bosom of tho ton, some of them
quite hull down, their snowy canvas
alone literally painted against tho ceru
lean sky. Nothing could have been more
beautiful; while the jialmce-crowned
heights of Staten Island, the numerous
green islets dotting the surface nt the
water like oases in the desert, the puffing
steamers darting about in all directions,
and the heavy fortifications with their
formidable armaments commanding the
harbor, all added new charms to tho scene.
There were gentle and high-lorn ladies
and gentlemen present whose air and
bearing bore the guinea stamp of genuine
breeding, while the snobs and parrana
and roughs of New York also appeared in
overpowering numbers. Indeed, the
crowded docks of the steamer, where ev
ery language and nation were represented,
resembled a pocket edition of the great
volume of creation.
Till: NEW JtlSIT SHOUT..
In about two hours the lioat discharged
its motley cargo at a sandy point on the
main, and all hands scnunliled pell mell
on board of tho train waiting to take
them to “tho liranch." Wc then coasts
ed along, crossing many salt water streams
and inlets, and patches of hard marsh,
upon bridges and trestle work, with the
highlands on the right thickly studded
with eattoges and liandaotno dwellings.

of theso rircM wo noticod two Amazonian
women in tho uoual costume tumbling

filer these trying circumstances, did tho
writer preserve his incognita amid tho
blushing ladies around him!
LONG BRANCH.
This celebrated spot which now con
tains theoourt of his Majesty Ulysses tho
I.. and is the headquarters for all tho
•ports, gamblers and fashionables of tho
country, is a bold promontory making out
into the Atlantic without a twig inter
vening 1 >et woen tho shores of Europe.
On every «ido save one, water and sky
embrace each other, and tho view is limit
less. Without sea wall or break-water
of any description, of course, the long
swell of the ocean, even in seasons of
perfect calm, is ever rolling in upon the
shore. This is increased by every breath
of air, and a very moderate breeze suffices
to put in motion the breakers, which, on
that shoal coast, como thundering in with
frightful mien and awful roar. In the
rear of the eminence upon which stand
tho hotels and long straggling village,
the land retires, and even become*
marshy. A drive for miles in length
graded and made into a smooth turnpike
fringes the bluff, und hard by to land-
wan], in continuous array, stretch tho
mammoth hotels with their miles at cor
ridors and piazzas, almost within roach of
tho salt spray created by tho dashing
waves.
Tin: BATH 1 NO HOUSES
are just so uutuy Imjior of deal boorta,
almut four feet square, and not as tight
ns they should bo, which form a miniature
street under the bluff, and barely removed
out of reach of tlu* surf. At given dis
tances, each proprietor has an office where
the money, watches and jewelry of the
bathers are received and dcpoiitod, and
ouch individual is furnished with a pair
of rough blue flannel drawers, secured
about tho middle by a string, and I
blouse of tho same material. The cos
tume is completed by a straw bonnet
fastened under the chin. The outfit of
tho hulies is precisely similar, save that
tho upper garment ia a trifle longer.
Around the nock «*ach Hither wears
string to which ia attached tho check for
his valuables. Fifty cents is tho modest
prieo asked for a few minutes use of this
, outfit, and no where upon earth is more
money modo upon loss capital.
&BHV1L OF THE FISHERMEN.
Depositing his hand luggage at the
nearest hotel to the train, the writer sav-
agkdy ignoring the offers of more than
on® hundred lack-drivers. took the road
to tho beach. determimd^o view all the
lions, teriatim and dofibemtohr. Crossing
a marshy meadow on dented planks, he

the strand.

IIow oonld those tiny crafts effect
landing ? We shall see. Hurrying to
the water’s edgOT we noticed that they
had all panned in the deep and stiu
waters?, just Vmyond tho edge of the
breakers. Tlien, one by one, watchinj
the advent of a wave, they moorted it

bo'om to the shore. Striking head 01

ru*hed into the water and dragged the

sand*. This was repeated in each in-
✓ stance. One lLihennan, however, permit
ting his boat to brooch to before striking,
lunl it swamped in an instant, and but
for prompt assistance it would have been
dished to pieces. Curious to see what
luck they had experienced, the writer
examined each boat (about a dozen in
number) and found they contained

blue fish and croakers, -some of them of
magnificent size. In a moment they were
thrown into huge Kuikets, weighed in
bulk, and sent to market.
THE BATHERS.
Seeing a Lirge number of odd looking
creatures looking like a flock of boobies
in the surf, we left tho boats and pro
ceeded to the spot. Several ropes had
been stretched Cram the shore and fast
ened to strong stakes deeply tlrivcn in
the sand al*out two hundred feet from
land. Upon these were strung, holding
on for door life, a motley crew, male and
female, old and young. Each billow up
set the whole crowd, and much piling
upon each other was often tho ludicrous
result. Some elderly persons were at
tended and supported by the strong arms
of on© of the keepers of the bath houses.
Little children, too, clung to the shoul
ders of grown men. Altogether it was
the most ridiculous spectacle that can be
imagined. l*h. inly di tiivtii-n U'tuvou
the soxes was the 7«.iir of the fanln.
This was usually twiskd like a China*
man’s peruke, or floated in dripping
masses upon their shoulders. For once
art had retired to the back ground, and
beauty (if it could be dw--n *rad) was
w holly unadorned. Indeed nature liad it
pretty much her own way. and the pro
portions of the human form divine were
strikingly developed, despite the carri-
caturo and burlesque of that one flimsy
garment.
Feeling a sudden inclination to take a
hand in ducking some of these mcnnaids,
your correspondent entered one of tho
aforesaid boxes full of cracks, and not with
out some trepidation donned the uncouth
uniform of the sea. He then watched his
chance when a big ware had prostrated
.mi tumbled together the bathers, to run
at full speed to cover (fhe water.) He
di.l not feel at nil composed until up to
the neck in tho briny deep, with every
wave covering him clean up and conceal

But the old ielmonUhcs us tshat it is
time to tatae this aquatic exercise, and
now Iiow to get back to that bath house
is the qu**st ion. We were in despair at 1
the thought, until it became evident that
the eyes of tho hundreds of spectators
were fixed solely upon the ladies. Under
cover of this impertinent curiority, the
writer sneaked into his box, jumped out
of bis dripping vestments in a trice, and
wo3 soon mingling with the crowd on the
beach. But alas for the poor ladies whew
with their Ijotc feet, disheveled locks ami
clinging garments, were forced to run the
gauntlet of a thousand eyes; ’Their mo
tions were unlike those of the Phoca or
seal described by Sir Walter in his Anti
quary. They literally wad&ed through
toe sand, the shoxp afar hurting their
delicate feet, and all tho drawing-room
practice of boarding school forgotten.
Pity that tho poet of the Telegraph and
Messenger is a thousand miles away, a*
your correspondent finds it impossible to
call them nymphs, mermaids, naiads, nor
can he bring even a conpletof doggerel to
tlieir relief. The truth is they were a be
draggled, forlorn and hideous band of
sheepish women, shorn of every grace and
charm they ever possessed. To such
lengths will faehion carry tho gentle sex.

youths, a boy and girl, were also flat upon Rev. Hawthorne, an Episcopal minister,
“ M ' who, daring to bathe in its pure crystal
waters, was carried by tho swift current
into tho rapids and down the rocky cliff
many feet IjcIow, into a watery grave.
Tcmpcstia Fall is eighty feet high and
six hundred feet Inflow the top of the
bluff, whence th ft observer first beholds
it. Fifty yards Inflow the last named
fall is'the Hurricane Fall, sixty feet per
pendicular from the rocky base, where
the watcrj are flashed into a cloud of
spray that 1ms all the appearance of a
rain cloud beneath a November sky. The
combined roar of these two falls is per-
fectly deafening. A descent is made to
them by a circuitous route, stoop, and
tiresome to the adventurer; but tho
sights will repay all the toil and fatigue
spent in reaching them and returning.
• Oceana Fall” is not so high as the two
last named. Here tho waters rush for
many feet over rugged cliffs and pass
angrily under the “Devil's Pulpit”—a
mass of rocks upon which the visitors
stand, eight hundred foct above tho rush
ing water*. Hard by is “Lover's Leap,”
a sharp ledge of rocks projecting several
foot from the main body of the bluff, and
having a perpendicular height of eight
hundred foct above the huge granite
boulders that lay in yawning ruggedness
below. No despairing lover need tire of
a disappointed existence longer, who, pre
ferring the romantic loap, stands with
outstretched arms above those stupendous
heights.
The “Students* Rostrum,” with gran
ite seats and platform, projects u distance
of 1,000 feet perpendicular from the rocky
base. Schools boys who, like Demos
thenes, would train their voices by roar
ing waters, may find hero a fit place for
that delightful exercise. When their
voices have gotten above the deafening
roar of the cataracts, a thousand feet be
low them, they may congratulate them
selves that as ora tors they ore a success.
Over across tho dashing waters of the
Tallulah, and about 1,500 feet above
them, is distinctly seen tho “Eagle's
Nest.” It is a hole apparently one foot
square—but in reality about four—in tho
rugged walls of rock, and lmd never been
explored until n few days since, when a
<biring spirit, a kinsman of Mr. Young,
tho hotel proprietor at the falls, lot him-
«fiflf down by means <jf a ropo a distance
of twenty feet, and thus Imnging over tho
cavernous depths of inoro than 1,200feet,
<wawled into the dark chaml*er of tho
“Nest,” and thus gave to wondering visi
tors the first report of tho appearances
within. It is so deep the danger is too
dreadful to advance more than twenty
feet from the mouth. The walls seem as
if constructed by the nflosof architecture.
Tho deep and narrow channel—the steep
and jagged sides of tho rising cliffs, would
remind us of the valley that Sinbad, the
6ailor, got into, whence ho waa taken by
an eaglet And the naino of “Eagle’s
Nost” was given tliat wonderful hole in
tho 8ido of the steep cliff because of it3
great resemblanco to tho places where
caglo’s build.
The “ Grand Chasm ” is tho last (dace
to bo referred to in this paper. It is in-
fileod the first in interest and importance
to tho visitor. Its great depths and

freedom in tho intercourse between the
sex os prevails, and much of tho gentle
modesty of woman, her greatest charm,
seems to be wanting. We »w beautiful
girls <lriving splendid turnouts on tho
beach, anfil side by si*lo with the young
bloods who flourished there. Indeed, tho
“Branch” seems to bo a sort of neutral
ground, where fun and pleasure are wont
to compromise with tho stem decrees of
propriety and decorum, and mirth and
jollity hold high carnival.
This latitude is nil wrong an«l demoral
izing. Gofil grant it may never be seen in
Southern circles.
GENERAL GRANT.
We happened not to meet our modern
Ctcsar in lib daily rides, and failed to
sniff even a whiff of his cigar. But he
was there in his luxurious cottage, sur
rounded by his clogant stock of horses,
numerous dogs, and a goodly retinuo of
human satillitos. The tales of State sit
lightly upon bin brow, and tho fi|ucstion as
to the best ILabana, tho fastest liorso on
the race track, or what cquipago he will
uzo to-day, is of for more importance to
our aporting President than any knotty
diplomatic problem. This is on

score's of gambling hells and bar-roonm,
tho shoddy frivolous stratum of society,
and tho blacklegs and snobs who here do
congregate, look up to Grant as their
great mogul, and are ready to do him
reverence on bended knees. Is ho not in-
<leed tbc grand prop of Long Branch,
nnd the source of much of thoir profit ?
Don’t bo surprised then if tho new Em
peror ia first proclaimed at Long Branch,
and goes on his triumphal march to tho
capital, with a chosen lx>dy guard of* tho
above choico spirits.
THE HOTELS
arc twenty in number, besides multitudes
of lwxirding houses. The former are huge
rambling edifices coarsely finished, aiul
filo not compare in olegancc with those nt
Saratoga. Tho one idea here seems to bo
to pluck and clean out the visitor in tho
mo**t. thorough and expeditions manner
possible. All are combined for that pur
pose, and the most modest meal costs the
traveler a preposterous sum.
Wo had no opportunity of seeing tho
hulies in full dress, anfil, therefore, have
nothing to say concerning the beauty of
themselves or toilets. Index'd, after the
writer's bathing experience, it will take
soint* time to get up any enthusiasm
again on the subject. But we havo written

Air Line Railroad. No more rcmurlcalflc
features of nature are known in nny of
the States than are to be seen in the
county of Habciaham. Tocooa city is
situated in sail county. It is ninety-five
miles from Atlanta, seven from tho Car
olina line, anil, until very recently, tho
end of tho Air Line road, which is now
running its trains through to Charlotte,
North Carolina.
Toecoa City is the point at which vis
itors to the many place's of interest in
Halvrsham and the adjoining counties
leave tho train. At a distance of two
miles northwest of said city are the fu-
lnous Toccoa (beautiful) falls. The mean-
lering stream is crossed four times before
the spot is reached where nature seems
to have performed one of her most beau
tiful and wonderful jobs. A well beaten
path loads through a shiuly glen along
the clear limpid steam—the view dark-
ning as you advance into a lofty rotunihi
of rock walls formed, as it seems, bysoni
sudden freak of nature. Suddenly thi
eye lights upon tho silvery sheet of roar
ing waters, peering over the perpendicu
lar heights 185 feet above the f\>aming
pool at the base. Tho sheet of water
seems about 20 feet wide. There are no
rocks projecting at intervals up the stu
pendous wall to break the stream in its
fall. In ono solid sheet it pours over the
edge of the rocks—a little projecting—
and unobstructed, except by the weight
of tho atmosphere, atnna the massive
boulders of rocks around the edges of the
foaming pool, and bounds into tpray that
nils a shower for many feet distant,
and a current of cool air that makes a
forcible reminder of an approaching Oc
tober storm.

of the channel to the right from where

d it is no easy task to reach tlie edgo
of the rocks above, even by a flank move

eft. After u severe exercise of limb and
muscle the rock near the water edge may

rock. By careful movement on the all

projects in the direction that the water
falls. This is about fifteen feet above
the sheet of water, and at least two hun

boas below. Lying flat on the rock and
extending the neck u little, the observer
can set? that the rock is scooped, and all
the way down two hundred feet under
the rock on which he is lyirg the walls

as well as sublime.

thereof the rays of even the meridian sun
never penetrate. This indeed Beems, as
it is sometimes called, the “jumping off

places of interest about ..the falls. Tho
mountain views arc sublime. Tlie “ocean

the distant views of the sea. TJie sunrise
