watching the tiny ray of light through
which signals are given, aud twice eve-
ry day the whole length of wirc--one
thousand two hundred and forty miles
has been tested for conductivity and
insulation.
The object of observing the ray OF
light was, of course, not any expecta-
ton of message, but simply to keep
an accurate record of the condition OF
The wire. Sometimes, indeed, wild, in
coherent messages from the deep did
come, but these were merely the results
of magnetic storms and earth currents,
which detected the galvanometer rap
idly, and s1eH the most extraordinary
UorGs and sometimes cccn sentences OF
nonsense upon the graduated scale be-
fore the mirror.
Suddenly last Saturday morning, ut
q quarter to 0 o'clock, while the light
was being watched by Mr.. May, he OBJ
served peculiar indication about it
which showed at once to his expert
enced eye that message was at hand.
In n few minutes afterwards the un-
steady flickering was changed to cohe-
rency, If we may use such II term, and
Mt once the cable began to speak, to
transmit, that il, at regular intervals,
the appointed signals which indicated
human purpose and method ut the 9TH

broken speech, and inarticulate cries OF
the still illiterate Atlantic.
After the long interval in which IL

word uttered by n high fever patient
when the rawlings have ceased and his
consciousness returns.
Cedar Falls gazette. [volume] (Cedar Falls, Iowa) 1860-1895, 1866-10-19
CEDAR FALLS. IOWA. FRIDAY. OCTOBER 10, 1866

the breathless wilderness of ninety
years ago, eighty-four thousand and
seventeen-I linger lovingly on the
nUmbers-eighty-four thousand and
seventeen boys in blue have swelled the
Federal legions. There has been pre-
cisely time enough since lSA0 to grow
one man to prime, and in that year of
grace there were not so many human
beings III all the State by more than
forty thousand! She had forty-thrcc
thousand men, women and children,
al, told, in 1910, and seventy-one sol
diers in the army. -Four batteries have
cavalry have heard the bugles and
thundered to the charge; sixty regi-
ments of infantry have closed up the
solid front, and fifteen thousand fallen.
And what heroes they were, and how
splendid the record they have made for
iowa, Liberty and God! How rich
the meaning they have lent the legend
OF their coat of arms: "Our liberties we
prlze--our rights we will maintain. ~
The grand staple of Iowa never took
root in her soil-MEN. l cannot forget
that when the call was made in Decem-
Der, 'Gl, for 200, 600 men, there were
twelve thousand and eighty men to
spare over all calls; that no such thing
rs conscript ever hailed from Iowa
that ii raised Il splendid harvest of sol
diers and they were all volunteers. Of
n truth, those "mines OF SPAIN they
told of, are emblematic of the State
they have lead enough in their mines
to persuade creation to be loyal--they
have the lead and they almost take tho
Iead.
But all these things have gone into
history they could never be evolved
in trip to Nebraska; they do not be-
long in q wayside letter at all, and yet,
sitting here on the banks of the Nils.
souri,, and thinking over the way |
have come--across the Fox and Rock
rivers; across the Mississippi; across
the Cedar, the Sioux, the Iowa, the Des
Moincs; across two States thinking
Chicago and Northwestern all the time;
ent terminus Of Ms Y5sd, two hundred
and iifty-nine miles west of the Missis-
sippi and three hundred and ninety
seven from Chicago, to find my way, as
best could, one hundred and twenty
more to the Missouri Of the splendid
wilderness you traverse ; the unfenccd,
unplowcd, unparalleled world whose
disc you move over; all day to day and
not u house; all day Tomorrow and the
next, and not an engine in hearing, to
whistle civilization up thinking over
all this, you will almost wonder, as |
did, how all that thunder of battle could
have broken out of the clear sky of
Iowa; whence came all the wealth of
flock, herd, harvest, and host that give
the State place among the powers of
the Northwest; putting this and that
together, it had all the charm of Il
young miracle the bottle with the gil
ant ia it was nothing to this wilderness
with world in it.
But abandoning "glittering generali-
ties" let your correspondent give his
day by day experiences in a trip from
Great Lake to Gre at River.
