Dolores The Society of California Pioneers had
a splendid banner Of white satin iringed with
gold, and picture representing the pioneer as
having inst landed Oh these shores He strikes

native Californian looks on with wonder and as

fopres 1876, and over the picture the words f ar
West" Various other companies and pretty
rench all San francisco, turned out and the
occasion was one of general Joy and congratula-
ton. An Grafton were delivered by Hon. Ma
thaniel Bennett of which we copy the peroration:
"With all these elements OF wealthin our midst,
with this experience OF the past and prospect
for the future it would be madness should we
prove false to ourselves in the career upon which
we have but Just entered. Let Us hope that the
foundations of our State government are wisely
and skillfully laid, and let US endeavor to rear
superstructure thereon which shall prove worthy
of the high destiny to which we are called. The
responsibility rests upon US, whether this first
American State on the Pacific, shall in its youth
and ripe manhood realise the promise of infancy.
We may, by unwise legislation, by unhappy dis
sensions, by mal-admnistration, cramp its ener-
eies and distort its form, Or we may make 1t rival
even Of the Empire State OF the Atlantic. The
best wishes of Americans are with us-they ex-
pect that the fortunate past will prove but the
harbinger Of still more glorious future; the Her
culean youth will grow to a Titan IN his manhood.
The world is interested in our success, for fresh
field is opened to its commere, and a new avenue
to the civilization and progress of the human race
Let us then endeavor to realise the hopes of
Americans, aud the expectations OF the world
Let us not only be united among ourselves for our
own local welfare, but let us strive to cement the
common bonds of brotherhood Of the whole Union
In our relations to the Federal Government let US
know no South, no North no East. no West
wherever American liberty Hourishes let that be
our common country. Wherever the American
banner waves, let that be our home
An ode written by Mrs Wills of Louisiana
was sung by the assembly, and the festivities
wound up with Ball and Supper.

Below Will be found digest OF the more lmpor-
tant news from California
Terrible Disaster and less OF Lifc--Expio-
sion of Steamer Sagnnorc.
From the Alta California, Nov
On Tuesday afternoon, at q moment when our
citizens were rejoicing in general jubilee, the
festivities were marrod by the announcement of a
disaster, the most destructive to life which has
befaen our city. AT O'clock Just as the steamer
Sycamore was casting OIL from Central wharf,
with a large number OF passengers, bound for
Stockton, her boiler burst with terrible explosion.
Masses of timber and human bodies were scat.
tered in every direction. Many bodies were
blown into the water, from which they were re-
covered by the numerous boats which thronged
about the scene Of the disaster. The boat was q
complete wreck, and from among the fragments
were taken the dead and the dying, mutiated in
q manner shocking to behold
The cause of this sad affair is perhaps unknown.
The Sagamore's boiler was nearly new, and was
pronounced by the boiler inspector to be the best
in the port, 1t may have been caused by lack
ept water, and we are informed by one OF the
passengers on her last trip down from Stockton
that her pumps were very much out OF order.
One Of the passengers on board Mt the time of
her explosion informs US that steam had not been
blown off for halt an hour previous to the acct
dent. Whatever the cause may be, a rigid in
Vestigation is necessary in order to prevent if
possible, similar accidents in future
Capt Cole the master of the boat, was blown
a distance of fifty feet into the water. He is
considerably injured
The number of persons on board at the time of
the accident cannot be accurately ascertained, as
the passenger list has not been found. We have
heard it variousy estimated at from seventyfve
10 q hundred Many bodies were SO much mutt
lated that it was found impossible TO identify
them, Limbs and fragments were gathered up IN
baskets shocking sight. The following particu-
lars have been carefully prepared, but it is I'M.
possible TO ascertain at present the full extent OF
this appalling calamity
