LEES NEW NATIONAL CIRcUs.-We learn
that Lee, the indeiatgable circus man. has
been Tor some time organizing company of
superior character, and will in few days
start out on regular tour through the mines.
opening first at Stockton 1t is said that the
new establishment will embrace some of the
best performers that could be found in Eu-
rope and America, and the horses and all the
appointments are Of the choicest selection.
A few facts in connection with the proprietor
may not prove nninteresting to those interest
ed In the show business. Mr.. Lee came to
California, 1851, and made his debut before
the public as posturing performer in com
pany with his children, in the various thea
tres throughout the State, and was so sue
cessful that he conceived the idea of estab-
fishing travelling circus company. Neither
energy nor money was spared to bring to-
gether equestrian talent, and consequently
the enterprise was crowned with success.
Having determined to widen the field of his
operations, he embarked for the Sandwich
Islands, and after brilliant series of per-
formances there he returned and erected the
National Amphltheater in this city. The ex-
pense of this building was $50, 600 and, as
an illustration of California investment of
capital, and consequent depreciation from the
original cost, we would mention that the same
property was recently sold for the triaing
sum of Sll 900 During his prosperous ca
reer in this State, Mr. Lee made voyage
to Europe expressly for the purpose of pro-
curing the services of new equestrian talent,
and has expended large sums, not only in the
prosecution of his business, but in making lib
eral donations for public and charitable pur-
poses. 1t is stated that the amount of his
contributions for the latter objects was not
less than $4,000. To the different fire de-
partments in the State he donated some $2O.-
900 to public schools, $4,000 to Mason
lc, Odd Fellows and other benevolent socie-
ties, $4,000 to religious institutions
$4,000 and to INDECENT persons, s., 1000
Notwithstanding career of prosperity, Mr.
Lee was obliged from various untoward cir
cumstances to succumb at last and encounter
the frowns Of fortune He was not the in
dividual, however, to stay crushed 4; and his
energies, through the assistance of warm
friends, have enabled him to fit out anew the
most brilliant establishment that has ever
visited the Pacific coast Sac. Union, March
3lst.
This new circus is to be in jackson on the
10th inst, the day set for the hanging of the
Cinnamon.
