The flag of our country was flung to the

dences and public buildings were dressed
richly in evergreens and flags in honor of the
day. The old custom, peculiar to Sacra-
mento, of dressing the streets with green
boughs, was entered upon on Saturday, and
by to-day the usual bowers of green will pre-
sent their pleasing lines to the eye along ),
| X and their cross streets as Tar up as EleV-
enth, and from I to l..
| The celebration to-day promises to be

not been to make any extra showing or special
display, but rather to observe in a general
