MISCELLANEOUS.
THE ATLANTIC CABLE.
Banquet to Cyrus W. Field.?
The Stoiiy of the Great Enterprise.?Mr.
Cyrus W. Field was fitly
honored in New York on the evening
of the 15tli, with' a banquet, given
by the members of the Chamber
of Commerce, as a tribute to his exertions
in the laying of the Atlantic
Cable. ^
Mr. Field, in a long and interesting
address, gave a history of the un/Invfol-inir
ir>t<ivcmnvsnrl with mnnv in
cidents illustrative of the difficulties
overcome and the indomitable perseverance
by which success was achieved.
The enterprise was shown to have
been of purely American origin, the
plan having been conceived and considered
thirteen years ago, when
about half a dozen gentlemen met at
Mr. Field's residence, and those who
came first to the work stood by it to ]
v T the end. It was not till 1850 that .
the enterprise had any existence in i
England, and then the British Government
began tbat generous course ]
which it has continued ever since.? <
The expeditions of 1857 and the two 1
* of 1858 were joint efforts, but for the, i
' time they ended in failure. '
When the scientific and engineer- i
? ?i?j ? i. i. ;
ing prooicius were suucu ?e iuuk ji
heart again, and began to prepare s
' for a fresh attempt. This was in 1
1863. In this country?though th<? s
war was still raging?I went from <
city to city, holding meetings and 1
trying to raise capital, but with poor 1
success. Men came and listened, 1
- aud said " it was all very fine," and J
"hoped I would succeed," but did ]
nothing. In one of these cities they 1
gave a large meeting, and passed i
some beautiful resolutions, and ap- ]
pointed a committee of "solid men" 1
to canvass the city, but I did not get i
a solitary subscriber. In this city I ?
did better, though money came, by (
the hardest. By personal solicita- 1
tions, encouraged by you, sir, and
other good friends, I succeeded in 1
raising <?70,000. Since not many.
had faith, I must present one exam- 1
' pie to the contrary, though it was not 1
till a vcar later. When almost all J
deemed it a hopeless scheme, one gen- 1
tlcraan of this city came to me and t
purchased stock of the-Atlantic Tel- t
graph Company to the amount of >
$100,000. That -was Mr. Loring f
Andrews, who is here this evening to 1
>>cc his faith rcwared. But at the ?
time I speak of, it was plain that our (
main hope must be in England, 'and J
I went to London. There too it <
dragged heavily. There was a pro- '
found discouragement. Many had ]
lost before, and were not willing to <
throw more money into the sea. "We >
^ needed ?600,000 and with our utmost s
.efforts we had raised less than half, j
and there the enterprise stood in a ]
dead lock. It was plain thaf we i
must have help from some new quar- 1
tcr. I looked around to find a man !
who had broad shoulders, and could i
carry a heavy load, and who would 1
be a giant in the cause. It was at j
this time I was introduced, to a gen
tleman, whom I Avould hold up to the ;
American public as a specimen of a :
greut-hdhrted Englisliman, Mr. Thos. 1
Brassey. You may never have heard
his name, but in London be is known
as one of the men who have made
British capital felt in all parts of the i
earth. I went to see him, though 1
with fear and trembling. lie re- <
ceived me kindly, but put mo through 1
such an examination as I never had 1
'before. I thought I was in the wit
ness box. He asked me every possi- '
ble question, but my answers satisfied i
him, and he ended by saying " It was
1 an enterprise which ought to be carried
out, and that he would be one of
ten men to furnish the money to do
it." This was a pledge of 60,000
pounds sterling ! Encouraged by this
noble offef, I looked about to find
another such man, though it was almost
like trying to find two Welling
tons. But lie was found in Mr. Jno.
Pender, of Manchester. I went to
to his office one day in London, and
we walked together to the House of
Commons, and before we got there he
said he would take an equal share
with Mr. Brassey;.
The action of these two gentlemen
was a-turning point in the history of
our enterprise. For it led shortly
after to a union of the well known
firm of Glass, Elliott & Co., with the
Gutta Pcrcha Company, making of
the two one grand concern known as
the " Telegraph Construction and
Maintainance Company," which included
not only Mr. Brassey and Mr.
Pender, but other men of great wealth,
such as Mr. George Elliott and Mr.
Barclay, of London, and Mr. Henry
Bflwlov. of Dublin nnrl -whinh thus
reinforced witli immense capital, took
up the whole enterprise in its strong
arms. We] needed, I have said,
<?600,000, and with all our efforts in
England and America, we had raised
only ?285,000. This new company
now came forward and offered to take
the whole remaining ?315,000?besides
?100,000 of the bonds, and to
make its own profits contingent on
success! Mr. Richard A. Glass was
made Managing Director, and gave
energy and vigor to all its departments,
being admirably seconded by
the Secretary, Mr. Shuter. Mr.
Mr. Glass has been recently knighted
for his services in carrying out the
Atlantic Telegraph?an honor which i
lie most justly deserves.
Mr. Field thus referred to the do-11
parture of the Great Eastern, July j i
loth, 1805, on her memorable voy- <
ige; i
For a week all went well; we had j
)aid out 1200 miles of cable, and had |
:i J.I A-' - i
mi ly uuu miies iu.ri.iier to go, wiien s
lauling in the cable to reinedv a fault, t
t parted and went, to the bottom.? 1
fhat day I can never forget?how j
nen paced the deck in despair, look- (
ng out on the broad sea that had j
swallowed up their hopes; and then t
low the brave Canning for nine days <
mil nights dragged the-bottom of tlie c
iccan for our lost treasure, and though
ic grappled it three times, failed to (
jring it to the surface. Tlie story of 1
hat expedition, as written by Dr. ]
R.ussell, who was on board the Great j
Eastern, is one of the most marvel- [
ous chapters in the whole history of t
nodern enterprise. We returned to f
England defeated, yet full of resolu- {
don to begin the battle anew. Meas- t
ires "were at once taken to make a
second cable, and fit out a new exper
lition, and with that assurance I came
ionic last autumn.
In December I went back again,
o! all our hopes had sunk to nothing,
flic Attorney-General of England
iad given his written opinion that we
iad no legal right, without a special
tct of Parliament (which could not
>e obtained under a year), to issue
ihc new 12 per cent, shares, on which
vc relied to raise our capital. This
vas a terrible blow. The works were
it once stopped, and the money which!
iad been paid in returned to the subscribers.
Such was the state of things
mly ten months ago. I reached
London on the 24th of December,
md the-next day was not a " merry
Christmas" to me. But it was an inexpressibly
comfort to have the counsel
if such men as Sir Daniel Gooch and
Sir Richard A. Glass, and to hear
stouthearted Mr. Brassey tell us to
50 ahead, and if need were he would
put down ?60,000 more. It was fi: (
nalltr nrl fliof n/mvon x
nwi.jr wuwuuw "VJV wutov t
was to organize a new company, which t
should assume the work, and so orig- r
inatedthc Anglo-American Telegraph ]
Company..- It was formed by ten x
gentlemen who met around a tabic in (
London, and put down <?10,000 ?
apiece. I hope the excellent Secreta- ^
ry of this company, Mr. Deane, who t
came with me across the ocean, will 2
its history, and tell the world what t
life and vigor were in its Board of j
Directors. The great Telegraph Construction
and Maintenance Company, j
undaunted by the failure of last year, ]
answered us a subscription of ?100,- ;
000. Soon after the books were ]
opened to the public, through the em- j
inent banking house of J. S. Morgan ?
& Co., and in fourteen days we liad ]
raised the whole ?600,000. Then ^
the work began again, and went on (
with speed. Never was greater en- ,
ergy infused into any enterprise. It (
was only the first day of March that ]
the new company was formed, and" i
was registered as a company the next \
day, and yet such was the vigor and
dispatch that in five mqnths frqjn that ,
day the cable had been manufactured, ;
' '
shipped on the Great Eastern, stretch
ed across the Atlantic, and was sending
messages^ literally swift as lightning,
from continent to continent.
The next effect was recovery of the
old cable with the deep-sea grapnels:
At first it was a little awkward to
fish in such deep water, but our men
got used to it, and soon could cast a
grapnel almost as straight as an old
whaler throws a harpoon. Our fishing
line was of formidable size. It
was made of rope, twisted with wires
of steel, so as to bear a strain of thirty
tons. It took about two hours for the
grapnel to reach bottom, but wc could
tell when.it struck. .. I often went to
the bow and sat on the rope, and could
feel by the quiver that the grapnel
was dragging on the bottom two miles
under us. But it was a very slow business.
We had storms and calms, and
fogs and squalls. Still we worked on
day after day. Once, on the 17th of
August, we got the cable up and had
it in full sight for five minutes, a long,
slimy monster, fresh from the ooze of
the ocean's bed, but our men began
to cheer so wildly that it seemed to
be frightened, and suddenly broke
away and went down into the sea.?
This accident kept us at work two
weeks longer; but finally, on the last
night of August, we caught it. We
had cast the grapnel thirty times. It
was a little before midnight on Friday
night that we hooked the cable,
and it was a little after midnight Sunday
morning when we got it on board.
What was the anxiety of those twenty-six
hours? The strain or every
man's life was like the strain on the
sable itself. When finally it appeared,
it was midnight; the lights of the ship,
ind in the boats around our bows, as
ihey flashed in the faces of the men,
showed them eagerly watching for
die cable to appear on the water. At
ength it was brought to the surface.
\11 who were allowed to approach (
crowded forward to sec it. Yet not
i word was spoken, only the voices of 1
;hc officers in command were heard j
jiving orders. AlLfolt-aa jf-Hfe ana
hratlr-hung on the issue. It was onlyvhen
it was brought over the bow .and
m to the deck that men dared to (
jreathe. Even then they hardly beieved
their eyes. Some crept toward
t to feel of it, to be sure it was there.
Then we carried it along to the elcc- .
i
:rician's room, to see if our long sought s
'or treasure was alive or dead. A
'ew minutes of suspense, and a flash
;old of the lightning current again ;
let free. Then did the feeling long j
rent up burst forth.
Our two cables do their part well.
Chcre are no way stations between
[reland and Newfoundland, where
nessages have to be repeated, ana the
ightning never lingers more then a .
second in the bottom of the sea. To
hose who feared that they might be

heir relief, that the old cable works
l little better then the new one, but
hat is because it has been down longer,
as time improves the quality
>f gutta pcrcha. But the new one is ,
;onstantly growing better. To show *
iow delicate are these wonderful cords,
t is enough to state that they can be c
vorked with the smallest battery
lower. When the first cable was
aid in '58, electricians thought that
0 send a current two thousand miles
t must be almost like a stroke of n
iglitning. But God was not in the
sarthquake, but in the still small c
roicc. The other day Mr. Latimer s
31ark telegraphed from Ireland across ?
he ocean and back again, with a bat- f
;ery formed in a lady's thimble! And t
iow Mr. Collett writes me from
Heart's Content: "I have just sent
ny compliments to Dr. Gould, of
Cambridge, who is at Valentia, with
1 battery composed of a gun cap, '

<V. telegraph that will do that, we c
;hink nearly perfect. It has never
"ailed for an hour or a minute.
A word about the tariff. Complaint
has been made that it was so f
ligli as to be very oppressive. I beg
ill to remember that it is only throe t
nontlis and a half since the cable was 1
aid. It was laid at a great cost and j;
i great risk. Differ cut companies t
lad sunk in their attempts twelve c
nillions of dollars. It was still an
jxperiment, of which tho result was
loubtful. This, too, might prove anpther
costly failure. Even if successful,
we did not know how long it would
ivork. Evil prophets in both countries
predicted that it would not last c
i month. If it did, we were notsme a
pf having more than one cable; nor I
how much work that one could do.?
Now these doubts are resolved. "VVc
have not only one cable, but two,
both in working order; and we find
instead of five words a minute, we can
send fifteen. Now we are free to
reduce the tariff. Accordingly it has
been cut down one-half, and I hope
in a few months we can bring it down
to one-quarter. I am in favor of reducing
it to the lowest point at which
we can do the business, keeping the
lines working day and night. And
then?if the work grows upon us so
enormously that we cannot do it?why
we must go to work and lay more
cables.
