It is shown that the external field induces long-range correlations. The inverse two-spin correlation function decays in a monotonie exponential fashion for a ferromagnetic lattice, while it decays in an oscillatory exponential fashion for an antiferromagnetic lattice. With no external field the inverse two-spin correlation function has a finite range equal to that of the interactions. %~
