The Victories Of Perseverance.
A LESSON FOR THE STRUGGLING BRAVE!

The greatest successes of the world are sell
Aem the results of chance and still more rare
ly the exploits Of an hour. We must lay a
broad foundation when we would erect a lofty
superstructure we must have patience when
we SOW the seed, and not declaim against the
tardy processes of nature. The man OF genius
very frequently fails 70 procure daring his
lifetime the due acknowledgement of his posi-
ton but where genius Is united With perse-
verence and indomitable will, all obstacles
disappear, and the recognition Of these quail
tics is both earnest and universal.
The most striking example, perhaps, that
history affords of what the single handed per-
severance Of one great intellect is capable of
accomplishing we find in Professor Holloway.
Having ascertained the intrinsic unity of all
diseases, and discovered in the vegetable king
dom what we may call the enternal and inter
nal principles of health-the remedies which,
made up ia the shape of Pills and Ointment,
have proved themselves equivalent To the
thorough and immediate cure of all external
and internal ailmeuts-he next resolved to
make his marvellous discoveries available t.
every member of the human family and
DESPITE the gigantic social, pecuniary and geo
graphical difficulties involved ia the task, WI
have before US the most abundant proofs o
his success
He was aware that his remedies, to b.
adopted and esteemed beyond all others, need
cd only 10 be known. Once used by any trib'
4 or nation, however barbarous, however igno
q rant, the physical evidence of their infallibl'
curative power would insure their universe

CYRUS West Field.

Mr.. Fields connection with the great
enterprise of laying the Atlantic Tel
egraph Cable, has brought his name
very prominently before the Ameri-
can people. The papers are unbound
ed in their praise of him for his enter
prise and energy AS the acknowl-
edged leader in laying the cable, he
is certainly deserving the highest en-
comiums He is probably as much
the author of the grand scheme as De
Witt Clinton was of the Erie Canal,
of which VIC called him the father a
few days ago.
Mr.. Field is a native of Stockbridge,
Berkshire County, Massachusetts, and
is the son of Congregational Clergy
man, who is still living The family
of living children consists of six
Brothers. The elder, Hon. David Dud-
ley Field, of New York, is we'll known
as one of the authors of the revised
Code. Matthew Dickinson Field is a
leading citizen of Massachusetts, and
was recently State Senator. iona
than Edwards Field is one of the
Judges of the Supreme Court of Cali
fornia. Henry Martin Field, the young
est brother, is an Editor of the New
York Evangelist. Timothy was lost
ut sea many years ago.
Cyrus was born in 1922. He en-
gagged early as clerk for his brother
Matthew, who was a paper manufac-
turer at Lee, Mass. About the period
of his majority, he engaged in the
same business Oh his own account III
Westfeld, in his native State, but
failed about 1887. Subsequently, for
several years, he was merchant in
New York city, being, for time, at
the head of paper manufacturing
and paper-dealing establishment.
About four years ago the project of
having an ocean telegraph was start
ed by him in small social circle, and
the result was the formation of an as
ISOLATION in New York City to carry
forward the enterprise. Connected
with it were Peter Cooper, Marshall
o. Roberts, Moses Taylor, S, +. B.
Morse, Chandler White, his brother
David Dudley and himself The last
three went to New Foundland, and
laid the matter before the Legislature
of that province. They were permit
,edto construct line of telegraph
from St. Johns, Newfoundland, across
that island of more than 800 miles
through a sterile wilderness. Their
followed. the submarine telegraph
across the Gulf of St. Lawrence, tht
first one attempted being lost. A tel
egraphic communication with Cape
Breton was effected. Grants and char
tiers for lines were then secured from
Prince Edwards Island, Nova Scotia
New Brunswick, &C., when Mr.. FielC
FASTENED to England to establish the
Atlantic Telegraph Co. The history
of the enterprise from the formation
of the Company is familiar to GU
readers. After few failures, the en-
terprise was successful-gcnius tri
Mmphed. And now the name OF Cyrus
West Field is linked with those o
Morse, the telegraph inventor, Kan
the Arctic explorer, and Fremont TIN
