sho and Cyrus may bo seen every Sunday
regardless of tho weather. All tho Fields
am orthodox, and nono more so than tho
old financier They are tho parents of
seven children, of whom six aro living.
After laying tho Atlantic cable Mr. Field
returned to business with renewed energy,
and was atono tlmo worth probably 3,000,
000, but a few years ago there was a "drop
lu stocks," which reduced his pile a fuw
millions. It is scarcely necessary to eay
that Jay Gould quit a fuw millions ahead.
The history of tho Atlantic cable is wt
Interesting as any romance, and tho more
Mr. Field's course in connection with it Is
t Hulled the more admirable It appears.
John Ilright, in one of his most eloquent
addresses, said of hint that, liko Cyrus of
old, ho freed thu inciseugurs of ieaco from
their bonds, gave lighttiiug wings to inter-
national speech, and moored tho New World
beatde the Old. Tho Idea of eourso was not
original with Mr Fluid. Frederick N.
CSIsborne, a telegraph operator, is bomo

tclicme, but his plan now seems very
