Tue Dav we CeLeskate.—The. ringing of bells, the roaring ef cannon and the
sounds of martial music will send_a patriotde thrill through every beart in the wide ex‘tent of our country to-day. We doubt not
that the heart of many » poor fellow who
thas been engaged in the war against the
Union, will rejoice to-day that he is still uo‘der the old flag. It wwuld seem that no
man born upon American soil, cau remember the sufferings of the patrivts of the Revolution, and the glorious nation born out of
those troubles, without being inspired with
‘some light reverence and love for the
nation. On such occasions as this, thé
achievements of the Revolutionary patriots
should be recounted to the children, and
they should be told how tlie path to liberty
was marked by bloody tracks, in order that
it may de now highly esteemed. Then the
The truths entncia”
ted in the Declaration were forgotten, and
the-stain of slavery rested upon us for nearly ninety years. The rebellion then came
“pon us asa punishment for our national
sins, and the country, after a baptism of
blood, came out purified and indeed a lend
of freedum. The Declaration which has
rendered this day immortal should now be
doubly dear to every lover ofliberty. Dear,
because it enunciated principles of government which shall stand as long as time, and
doubly dear, because those principles are
The day star of peace has arisen in this land
and our patriot armies are engaged in industrial pursuits. The sword is beaten into a ploughehare. At-such a time as this,
awd under such cifcumstances, citizens of
this land should rejoice. The cares of business and évery concern should be cast
wide, aud the day should be one of rejoic
ing so long asa love of liberty exists in the
Tue Cimcus.—The Cosmopolitan Circus
will give a performance in this city, thi,
afternoon and evening. In addition to their
other attractions, they have secured the serclown. Mr. Jackeon is pronounced by the
press to be the best clown that ever appeared before a Califoruia audience. His imitations uf Kean, Buchanan and Forest, are
close and amusing, while his stock of fresh
jokes and witicisms seemingly last forever,
and nevor fail to keep his hearers in a contiowous rour of langhter. The enterprising
proprietors, Messrs. Lée & Ryland have
exerted themselves to make their -circus a
success, and they have succeeded. Go and
see them this afternoon, as soon as the proto advise you to go to-night.

agencies of Eastern rance ies,
so. successfully managed during the last six
years by the above named gentlemen, are
ing company n Fraacisco
Wassera slope. The differént Eastern Assurance agencies were so obiy conducted by
Mr. H. H. Bigelow prior to formation uf
the Pacific Insurance Company of San
favorable offers to him that he has been induced to undertake the general agency of
their office, transferring, or rathet we may
say, bringing over with bim the connection
of the following five Insurance Companies;
namely: The Home Insurance Company, of
New York; The Hartford Fire Insurance
Company, of Hartford, Conn.; The Washington Insarafice Company, of New York:
The Arctic Insurance Company, of New
York ; The Phenix Insurance Company, of
New York. The. inereasing favor that was
shown by Calitornia assurers te the éompanies of their own State, rendered this incorporation of the old companies of New
York snd Hartford with the Pacific not
only beneficial, but necessary; and Mr.
Bigélow, after mature deliberation and cor
respondenee with the patent offices, selected that company as the most. qualified to
represent the different companies whose interests were confided te his charge. As cvidence of the manner in which Mr. Bigelow has fulfilled his trust, as well as the
way in which he bas benetited California,
and her citizens bave repaid the advantages
of assurance, we may mention that the different companies whereof he is agent, bave
paid for losses during the last five years in
this State and Neveda, over $750,000,
at the same time making a net profit
of four hundred thousand dollars —
We -leave it to our readers to strike
the balance of profit.and-loss. ‘ihe Life
Assurance business of the old companies
will be continued at the old office in Montgotbery street, under the firm of A. D.
Smith & Co. Mr. Smith, for the purpose
of giving his exclusive attention tu that
branch, resigning the pusition of Clerk of
Hie Twelfth District Court, a position, let
us remark in passing, that has made him
many friends by his courteous and gentlemanly conduct. He likewise will take
charge of the business of the Connecticut
Life Insurance Company of Hartford, and
the Accidental Insurance Company of New
York. Few men have more kuowledge of
the Insurance business of this coast than
Mr. Bigelow. His judgmeht has always
been appealed toin cases of disputed claims.
And even it he did not bring to the Pacific
Company the large business of the different
Eastern offices, we think that it bas made a
et gain by securing his valuable services.
¢ look upon the Pacific as our principal
Assurance Company, and it hae now a
most efficient chief agent.— News Letter.
E. ¥. Spence represents the above Company in this city.
MovunTatns ABoutT SUMMIT Ciry.—The
following is an extract from a report by
Prof. Whitney, whe explored the mountains
of Excelsior district:
A réeconnvissance of the Sierra range
between the paralluls of 36° and 38° North,
recently undertaken, shows that this portion
of the State of California, previously unexplored and unknown contains the greatest
mass of mountains, taking width and average elevation inte consideration, which has
yet been discovered within the limite of the
United States—and pethaps in North America. At one point in the field of view there
were observed five mountains of over 14,
000 feet elevation, aud about 50 peaks, which
rose toa hightuf over 13.000 feet. The
culminating poiut of the Sierra in this district is believed to be not less than 15,000
feet above the level of the ‘sea, which is
considerably higher than Mount Shasta bitherto regarded as the most lofty peak in the
United States. .
A MAN named Bollinger has been arrest
