Success orthe Atlantic Cable.

The public have been incredulous of the
success Of the Atlantic Cable enterprise
The i'll fortune that attended the first efforts,
however, did not discourage some of the san
guine spirits who were foremost in project
ing the scheme. Their motto was ''try, try
again" Like Grant cutting his way through
the wilderness to Richmond, they were
bound TO flight it out on that line" Grant
won the field, and Field won the sea. Pluck
and perseverance are the weapons with which
great victories are won. Cyrus w. Field
has I-mmortalized himself. But the ''Cable
is asuccess." Telegraphic communication be-
tween the old and the new world, has been
established. The lightning darts from shore
TO shore, and men speak to each other across
the boisterOus ocean. The event accomplished
is one of the grandest triumphs of this pro-
gressive age.
The eastern end of the cable was laid on
the coast &C Ireland, on the morning of July s,
and at Hearts Content, on this side, July 81.
The length of cable paid out is 1864 miles.
The first news of importance received was
that a treaty of peace had been concluded
between Austria and Prussia. Good news,
which it is TO be hoped will prove true. Dis
patches of European news now will come
daily to New York, and the morning papers
will sOoI be graced with London and Paris
kilograms
The following dispatches, and others, have
passed over the cable.
The Queen TO the President.
AsPY BAY, July 3O-The Superintendent of the
New Foundland Line arrived here at 9 O'Clock
this morning, with a message from the Queen of
Great Britain to the President Of the United States,
as follows:
OSBORNE. July q. 1866.
To the President Of the United States, Washington /:
The Queen congratulates the President on the
successful completion of an undertaking which she
hopes may serve as an additional bond of union
between the United States and England.
To which the following reply was sent:
The President to the Queen.
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON. 11;30 A. NJ. July SOth, 1856,
To Her Majesty, Queen Of the United Kingdom Of
Great Britain and Ireland:
The President of the United States acknowl-
edges with profound qualification. the receipt Of
Her Majestys dispatch, and cordially reciprocates
the hope that the cable which now unites the
Eastern and Western Hemispheres may serve to
strengthen and perpetuate the peace and unity
between the government of England and Repub-
lie of the United States.

why L Cannot support Garfield.

Because he has held Office two terms,
and a longer continuance is against the
spirit of Republicanism.
Because l admired Lincoln when liv-
ing, and cherish his memory now that ne
is a martyr to Copperhead fanaticism.-
Garfield f%actiously opposed him and his
administration, and looked upon his
death as a providential removal; there
fore 1 can't support him.
Because he, knowing that the Nation
al Banks, (of which he isreported to be a
stockholder,) are charging 9 per cent.
and upwards, for discounts, to the des-
truction of the business interests of the
country, has taken no steps to have the
evil remedied, l can't support him.
Because he has aided in the relief of
rebels and traitors, aud thereby disgra-
ced the District can't support him.

Wool.

There Is little to report in the woolmarket, west
or east. A few transactions during the week are
reported in this State, but at depressed rates; and
it takes a nice article of wool now to bring 60 cts
There is too much anxiety to get from under the
load assumed by spectators in the early part of
the season. and it don't have n happy effect on the
market. We quote normally this week at from
- to So and 5sc.
In NeD York the market continues dull and IN
settled, with prices tending in favor Ofbuyers. The
sales during the week were very small. at q range
of from 60 to lie.
In Boston the market was heavy, and prices not
fully sustained. The transactions for the week
footed up about 400, coo ms. fleece at from so to 7Oc.
including Ohio medium to fine st62Ec to 671zc. and
Pennsylvania at 65 to zoe for good to choice lots.
In Philadelphia the Com. Last reports a decline of
from 4 to SC per h. since the postponement of the
tariff bill. The range during the week was from g.
to zoe for fine, middling SIC. common 50 to 62c.-

from $3.50 to $3.50. Lambs $3.50 to s. per head.
NEW YoRK, July 2.-The weather was fine for
sales. and trade opened lively with about $500 bull
locks on sale at the Forty fourth st. yard. The
majority of cattle were nice, smooth, Illinois, Ohio
and Kentucky steers, many of them quite heavy
enough for hot weather. Such cattle brought 179
171zc, with a few at &c., and as butchers as well as
others sometimes get deceived in their estimate of
weights, possibly a few head may prove nearly 19c
as some did last week, though bought for not over
1sc
There was so large a proportion of the cattle
prime and fat that this class sold little ifany high
er than last week, but fair and ordinary brought
@Hc per Id more than one week ago with weights
rather ~favoring sellers. As over 1000 head had
been sold at Bergen, butchers were not over anx-
iOus, and many of them either bought none at all
or purchased sparingly, so that the trade was very
slow in the afternoon, pretty fair steers selling at
1910.

Gen. Garfield and the Soldiers.

Mr.. EDIToR Among the many virtues claimed
for Gen. Garfield by his friends, is his love and re-
gard for the boys in blue" who fought and suf-
fered that the Union might live. But it is a signif-
icant fact that not a single soldier holds a Govern
ment office in this Congressional District. although
them. This is all wrong. and reflects great discred-
it upon those in high places.
l have in my mind q case in point. Some time
since, a MANNED and disabled soldier, Strongly
supported by fully two-thiIds of the citizens Of
Ravenna, made application for the Post Office in
that place. 1t was conceded that he was amply
qualified to discharge the duties of the office, but
his application twas not favorably considered by
Gen. Garfield. and r. A. Gillette,-a member Of
the Hall clique. was retained in the ofice-a place
which he had occupied since the Buchanan Ad-
ministration. This man Gillette is now out in a
card in favor of the Philadelphia Convention-se
great Generals heart truly warm towards his for
mer companions in arms!ll Has he not indeed
shown by some of his appointments, that he Is an
unselfsh, wise and diserete leader!I!

MR. EDITOR As the District Convention nears.
the interest in it intensifes. A few more thoughts
in regard to it, if you please. 1t is not pretended
by any one but that Garfield is right, on all the
live issues of the day. The remaining questions
to be settled about the rebels and their States, and
admission, he fully understands, and is capable Of
grasping them IN their multiplied ramlhca1Ons--
The Uunion men of the present Congress are be-
ing sent back with wonderful unanimity, from all
parts Of the country. Garfields acquaintance and
influence with them will be welded most happily
for the country, in the settlement of those veXed
and important points:
His patriotism and ability are undOubted, his
talents and experience ct him. in a high sense, for
the position. His energy and indomitable, unceas-
ing industry, point him out as the man for the
place. The friends of the Union every where, are
looking to US for the return of Garfield. In fact
