TRANSLATION OF MIR. LUDvIGHs SPEECH.
Ftilo,p Citizens In the year l776, the
| People of the thirteen American Colonies
were rejoicing over the birth of Liberty aud
the declaration of their separation from the
| Wonderland. In the year 1888 those Colo
nies, become mighty States, are found rejoic-
ing aaain over their union upon the basis OF
| mutual interests, with that Netherlands
union in consequence Of the triumph of Sci
ence in the successful laying of the Gable
that has brought two Continents in the i'm
mediate contact of unaccOuntable consequent
ceS.
The celebration Of this day is no sectional
one: it i, the rejoicing echo of the human
mind throughout civilization over the latest
achievement of Science that is without paral-
lei in the history Of inventions. Yes-Sci-
ence and Mind have thus given us new
proof, that the human intellect has no limits,
and that things apparently impossible, may
be brought to a reality. There are among
the inventions and meEtal expansions of past
centuries, some which have so powerfully in
huenced material and spiritual progress, as to
be regarded as cpOchs in history. Amongst
those epochs l may count especially the
Reformation, and Luther's name will live for
ever. Then the Discovery of America, and
the Invention of Prlnting-the one enlarging
the area for human labor, and the other giving
a new and mighty lever to mans intelligence
were other epochs of hu,nanitys progress.
Then Franklin drew the lightning down
from Heaven, and helped to wrest the scep-
tire from tyranny. Then Professor Oersted
pointed out ,he first those peculiar powers Of
Electro Magnetism to which We owe Galvan-
oplacticity, GaIvanography and the Subma-
rine Telegraph, in our age. To his name we
join The names OF Morse; and to Field, the
honor is due for laying successfully the Cable
itsef-the Cable, the great World's Ioague-
These are names that will forever adorn the
horizon of history; and to them let US add
the name OF Washington, the Father of our
common new Father-Land.
The speakers prior to me have laid before
your mind, the great material consequences
of this wonderful new invention. | had the
intention to show the spiritual results but
must reluctantly defer my observations at
any length OF account of the lowering wealth
er and rain. l would make this remork how
ever, in conclusion, that the spirit does not
acknowledge privileges, neither of birth. nor
of religion, neither of wealth nor of color
and those who are rejoicing with us over this
triumph of the human mind, should compre-
bend that they are shouting with us over
mental results in the field of natural science,
to which it is reserved to abolish all preudites,
and to unite mankind more and more in one
Brotherhood, as children Of the same Cody
nature.
[Mr. LUDvIGH's brief speech was received
with great applause by the numerous German
citizens in the audience
The bands then struck up Hail Columbia,
and after the tune was finished, Ex-Governor
Ramsey proposed the following:
Resolced, That the thanks of the people Of
St. Paul are due, and are hereby returned to.
the City Council for their well arranged pro
gramme and the interest they have taken in
this popular celebration of the su cessful lay
ing and working Of the Atlantic Telegraph
Cable.
Which was adopted with cheers and ap-
plause.
Charles L. Emerson Esq, then said
F'dtop Citizens In the name of the NUM-
cipal authorities of the City of Saint Paul, I
thank you, one and all, for your jealous and
successful cooperation in our efforts to pro-
perry celebrate this great event. The eXer-
cises are now concluded.
Tie different bodies, military and civic,
then took up their line of march for their va
rious Halls and Armories, and ere long the
square was almost empty.
The Common Council, orators, State off,
GERS etc, with the invited guests, and Press,
repaired to the reception room in the City
Hall, and partOok of a collation..
Thus passed off the celebration, pleasantly,
happily, without one accident or failure to
mar the genera gaiety of the occasion. In
it's plan ard the manner it was conducted, it
was perfect success, and will long be re-
membered by the citizens of St. Paul as
pleasant spot dwelling greenly in their me-
mores.' We believe in rendering credit t.
whom credit is due, and following but the
freely expressed opinion of the citizens, we
