San Francisco, April 5, 1 Summary Trial and Execution of a Merican—The California Signora Biscaccianti—The Yield of Gold—Increase of the Populatton—The very latest News, &c. ‘The mail which will leave here to-day will convey to your readers intelligence of the arrest, trial, conviction, condemnation, and execution of a Mexican, named Carlos Falava, for the crimo of theft, at Mokelumne Hill. on the Ist inst. This is tho first execution that has taken place in that region since the settlement of California. ‘The criminal, in this instance, was a most hardened wrotch, and, by his own confession, he was guilty not only of the crime for which ho suffered death, but of many others, ‘The circumstances under which hoe was arrested, tried, and convicted, are as follows :—For a long time, robberies were of frequent and alarming occurrence in tho vicinity of Mokelumne Hill. Tents wore cut open and robbed when least expected, and when their owners wero but 9 short distance from them. Measures were taken to ferret out the robbers, both by the Vigilance Committee and other citizens, but for some time without success, At length, a few days ago, circumstances tended to attract attention to Carlos Exlava, who was several times seen in rather suspicious proximity to tents or houses which had been robbed or ent open, and uponall of which occasions he managed to get off, by pretonding to bedrunk, He ‘was tried before the Vigilance Committee, and found guilty. In fact, the testimony against him was so con- clusive that he admitted his guilt, and at once abandoned the pretence of being intoxicated, which he maintained when his trial commenced. The re- sult was that he was convicted and sentenced to be executed. Accordingly, at fifteem minutes to 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the prisoner was brought down for oxe- cution, accompanied by a large guard of the Vigilance Committee, who marched six abreast, Eslava betrayed the most dogged indifference to every preparation of death him. rything having beon arranged, one of tho Excoutive Committee stated to the people that the prisoncr before them was the only ono ever in the hands of tho Vigilance Committee against whom such positive proof of guilt had been adduced as in the present instance; and deeming an example neccesary to warn other evildoers from similar crimes, Eslava had been condemned to dic. The prisoner then requested to speak a few words, and permiadon being granted. he said, in a low tone of voice, that he had committed the crimes which had been proved against him, and for which he had been justly sentenced to death. He did not speak longer than about two minutes, Ilo was executed at about J o'clock. i Thave no doubt that many of those who will read this eowouut Will the whole proceeding. Indced, if 1 bad not come to fornia, T \- demned it mysclf. But living here for some time, I must say that this summary mothod of treating criminals is absolutely necessary. In the old States, we can well af- ford to allow the law to take its course, In California, however, we oupnot do it. The State is infested by vil- lains from the four quarters of the world, whom nothing but the certainty of terrible punishment will prevent from robbing and murdering. Blackstone points out at length the law of succeesioh to the throno of England; but says that, if certain emergencies should occur, the times inust provide the remedy. We have laws enough here, but there are cases in which it would be folly to wait for the law to take its course, We will suppove a case, Bristol Bill, if here, could effect an entrance ito any building in California, After plundering it, he might, if so dispored, set fire to it, and perhaps destroy the whole city. If canght in the act. he would be ar- rested. But what would be the use of putting him in confinement? ‘There is not a prison in the State that he or an ordinarily expert burglar could not escape from, In fact, it is a perfect mockery of justice to confine a cri- minal in them. The instinct of self-preservation, there- fore, dictates that criminals should be disposed of at and placed £o that they cannot do further mischief. ure to say that there will be no crime committed in the neighborhood of Mokelumne Hill for at least six months, because of this execution. As far as regards San Francisco, no man’s house would be safe for amoment but for the Vigifance Committee, After making some torrible examples of malefactors, it disbanded as a body; but it delegated a committee to call it together again if occasion required it, ‘There was a lull in crime for sometime, The burglars and robbers at longth com- menced operations again. ‘Two or threo burglaries were committed each night, At length the Vigilance Commit- tee were convened again, to the number of three hundred and fifty or four hundred persons, A resolution was passed, that the first person who was found in the act of burglary or murder, or who was arrested on suspicion of either, and on solemn trial, should be executed without delay. From that time—some three weeks ago—to the present, there has been no burglary or murder com- mitted in San Francisco, The shipments of gold for the year 1852, will reach an enor- mous amount, All persons who have visited the mining re- gions lately, concur in opinion that the yield will be enormous. Signora Biscaccianti ix mecting with great success here. She has given several concerts; and on every occasion of her appearance, the American Theatre was crowded to overflowing. ‘The population of Californiais increasing ata rate truly astonishing. By intelligence from China, we learn that almost every ship in the ports of that country is taking in passengers for the Kureka State. We have similar news from the different countries of Central and South America, In one day, last week, the population was in- creased to the extent of one thousand, by tho arrival of that number of Chinamen and Chilians, not one of whom can speak a word of English. But if they can’t speak Englich, they must eatgnd drink, and wear clothes. Trade and commerce will of course be ‘benefitted by their pre- sence umong us. ». 8.

Their general habit of abstomi- ousness has been made rather a subject of complaint. by those who think they ought to «pend the good of the country a fir proportion of their carning#; but on the ¢ occasion they would appear determined to redeem from such reproach. Great pots of riee, care castes of hogs, theep and gonts. flauked by a liberal sup- ply of “chicken fixins,” have formed the staples of their fe st to which also were added a due proportion of pra esand sweet cakes, ‘These solids were probably di- luted by copious draughts of tea, for there did not ap- pear any symptoms of a stronger infusion, ‘Their feativi- ties, of course, have been venod by music; and the performers, seated on the tcp of # porch. worked away im astyle that the experts no doubt entircly appreciated, Their own countenances exprested unbounded satinfas- tion; and a crowd of hombres. in the street below, demand- ea frequent encores.
