BRIEF NOTES.

Hon. Newton Booth has been elected q
Director of the Capital Gas Company, vice
James Forbes, deceased.
Judge Armstrong has granted Mrs. John
I. Carey divorce. The decree and its con.
tents are withheld from the public.
At the tent of the Seventh Day Advent

The wife of policeman Mclaughlin fell
through loose iron grating on the north
east corner of Fourth and X streets on
Thursday, and was seriously injured.
r. S. Carey gives notice that, beginning
at II o'clock to-day, the K-street cars, and
all large cars, will run from the depot to
Twentieth and X direct. The o and H.
street cars will run across Twentieth 10 X
during the circus.
The Twelfth-street road between the
north levee and the Haggin ranch has been
graded and placed in excellent condition by
the county and citizens living beyond the
American river. The work was mostly
done by the chain-gang. The road will be
kept sprinkled and will become favorite
driveway.
The present belief is that the Mrs. Corn.
field, who lately mysteriously disappeared
from Knights Landing and was supposed
| to have been drowned, simply eloped. This
! impression is strengthened by her telling a
nelghbor that the only man she ever loved
| married another woman, after which she
| married to get a home. Since she married
her former lovers wife died, leaving him a
widower, since which time she has been
very unhappy.

The double mammoth circus and me-
nageries establishment of Sells Brothers &
Barrett will perform here this afternoon
and evening. There will be street parade
also in the forenoon, and of this spectacle
there is made extraordinary promise.
Twice in this column the exhibition has
been extendedly referred to. 1t remains
only to be said that the press in places
where it has shown credit it with present
ing all that the bills promise. There are
two elevated stages, two equestrian rings,
and hippodrome racing track. 1t is an
nounced that there are over 800 performers
connected with the establishment, a large
number of performing elephants, ostriches,
variety of wild animals, an aviary,
aquarium, etc. Many new and specially
difficult feats OF equestrianism, bare back
riding, etc. The San Francisco Chronicle
said of this circus and menagerie
Everything seemed new and clean and bright,
the arrangements were all complete, aud every
thing had been done TO make the place attrac-
tive. There were two rings and the usual plat
form, and all were in fair view of the spectators
wherever they were seated. The first impress
sion was of an exceptionally well-ordered esta-
blishment The programme disclosed very
ent acts and twelve races. There were comical
mules, tight-rope dancing, high perch per.
formances, leapipg and vaulting, splendid
riding. bareback and otherwise, clever bicycle
maneuyers, acrobatic feats and posturing and
contortion, balancing and juggling, aerial per-
formances of various kinds, trapeze and flying
rings, horizontal bar, slack wire, magic ladder
and swinging acts. hurdle riding, cannon ball
| juggling, feats of strength with chairs and
tables, head balancing on trapezes and a hip
podrome racing programme. Every act was
good, some remarkably clever, and. speaking
generally, the performance was all through as
entertaining as any ever given in this city.

The American Not Nav,pab,e.

The Supreme Court has decided, in the
case of John T. Cardwell VS.. the County of
Sacramento and others, that the American
river is not navigable stream. Cardwell
wanted to enjoin the county from construct
ing bridge without a draw across the
river on the site of the old Lisle bridge,
claiming that it was navigable at certain
times of the year to point above his land.
The Superior Court of this county ruled
against him and the Supreme Court has
done likewise

the Stocktons.
STOCKTON, May 30th.-It was another
case of couldn't hit Burke this after
noon which led 10 the defeat of the Stock
tons by the Sacramentos by score of to 2.
But when, perchance, Stockton batter did
hit Burke safely or get his base on balls or
error, he would Immediately proceed to
give as rotten an exhibition of base-run-
ming as has ever been seen on the ground.
The Stocktops played all through in list
less manner, and at least three of the nine
Howard. Moore and Stickney-should
have liberal portions of their salaries re-
served.
Both Burke and Baker pitched good ball
and received perfect support from Depan-
CHER and Roxburg. Sweeney made a
costly error, and was unable to do anything
at the bat, Burke striking him out twice.
Newbert, at short, made three errors, which
alone should have given the game to the
Stocktons. Veach was stiffened up, and in
the fourth inning gave way to Roberts.

Another Memorial morning
Has dawned on the land of our love-
Still tenderly blossom the flowers,
The graves of our heroes above.
There they speak for the lips that are silent,
They tell of forgiveness and peace;
Teach that love conquers hate and resentment
And pray that ali anger shall cease.
In our hearts are the prayers of the flowers;
And lifting our tear-softened eyes
We can see the dear flag of our country
Cleaning brightly against the blue skies.
Washed clean in the llfe-blood of heroes
May it wave from the mountain to sea-
Over brothers, united forever,
Ger one Countrywide Land of the Free,
ANNIE c.. WEEKS.

MEMORIAL DAY AND ITS CELE.
BRATION IN SACRAMENTO.
1.-TWO Graves at Gettysbure"-Sacr
mentans Pay Tribute to the
Nations Dead Heroes.

Written for the REcoRD-UyIoN.1
The terrible war was over,
And peace had descended like rain
To cool with its drops of healing
All the burning passion and pain.
Never slave in our borders
Lifted his fettered hand
Asking OF God the freedom
Denied by his native land.
Never slave in our bordersl
For free men now stood in their pride
Men who had fought for the freedom
That their country no longer denied.
And softly the old flag lifted
It's folds to the sweet May air,
With its stripes all cleaning in glory,
With its stars all glittering fair.
And Time had brought comfort to many,
But some bruises will long remain,
And when hearts have been stunned by thei
anguish
Time only makes keener the pain.
In a calm little Northern graveyard,
Not far trom the Gettysburg fight
Side by side two young soldiers were sleeping
Through the long, dreamless, morningless
night.
He died for his flag," said one gravestone,
For his country's honor and laws"
On the other was simply written,
de died for the dear lost cause
On a fair Memorial morning
Far back in the years that have sped
10 the graves Of the loyal dead
White as the wing of the angel
That bore him out of the strife;
Red as the blood that he shed there;
Blue as the eyes of his wife.
And that wife sadly stood by her loved one
AS the steps of the crowd died away,
wrapped close in the gloom of an anguish
mat was shrouding her deeper each day.
On the other no blossoms had fallen,
In their purity undefiled,
To comfort the Southern mother
Whose JOY had all died with her child.
With the graves stretched between them, they
stood there,
nj; Each c h, bearing her grief's deep trace,
I'LL CLEAN OF the tenderest pity
Softened the young wife's face.
Swiftly she bent Yer the flowers
That covered the grave of her dead
And she gathered the whitest that lay there,
Leaving the blue and the red,
And over the Southern lad laid them.
with tears that sprang warm from her heart
Ihen turned TO the desolate mother
ION stand there no longer apart
In the name of our country bring them
oar country, in grief as in 10y
To son who has gone from his mother,
From father who meier saw his boy.
Bravely they fought through the conflict:
Bravely each died at the end;
And now that the warfare is over,
Let each sleep here as brother and friend.
Let the flowers CLEAN white like truce-hag,
With message of love and of peace
To all who are weary of battle,
And long for the word of release
A sob choked the voice of her pleading
And she wistfully lifted her face,
Like child that is wearied with grieving,
And creeps to its mothers embrace.
Wide opened the arms of her listener
Wide opened her arms and her heart;
Gracious deed, loving pleading had conquered
She stood there no longer apart.
