To the disappointment of ma ny, citizens as well as stranyers, the great race be- tween Ito and Fred Coy, for $10,000 aside, was not ran on Tharsday, All the world turned out early on the day appointed, with every sort of animal—horses, miles and donkeys—and every description of ear- Hage, from a wheelbarrow to ap eight mule bageage wagon. The racers were paraded upon the ground, and expectation ran high, although the bettiag was | not very bri: It seemed to bea ling opinion that there was some “jockeying” going on. ‘The hoar appointed for the race having passed, announcement was made that the owner of Fred Coy would pay the forfeit, and that there would be no race. ‘I'he reason alleged was that the main stakes were on the steam- er Sea Bird, not yet arrived; but the more pate cause is to be found in the fact that the Californians were too wide awake, and could not be induced to risk their money on the result of the race. They could not understand why the horse should be brought 700 miles merely for the sake of running in Los Ange- los, and very naturally concluded that the match was = fora “bite,” they, the Californians, to be the victims.

Lyncn Law Again IN Voous—| UTION OF THE Necro James TAYLOR, FOR BURGLARY AND RopBery.—Mormon Isuanp, Jan. 26, 1853.—We take the following from the State Journal :—Our ordinarily quiet town was thrown into excitement this afternoon, by reason of the hanging of a negro named James Taylor, at Negro Hill, on the opposite side of the South fork, from this place. e cir cumstances attending the case appear to be as fol- lows :—During the past two or three weeks, burgla- rious entrances had been made, and robberies com- mitted, in the houses of four of the citizens of this place and of Negro Hill. On Thursday night last, the house of Mr. Levi Rowley was entered, and, among other articles stolen, was a peculiar specimen of gol Aweleting 11, which, with money, etc., was taken from the pockets of hispants. The same night the house of Mr. Bennett was entered, and a carpet- bag, containing clothing, etc., taken. A re of $300 was of by the citizens of this place, for the arrest of the thief, together with the arrest of the murderer of an Indian, found stabbed and beaten to death in the Blue Ravine, about half a mile above this piece: This morning a negro offered a ee of gold at one of the stores on Negro , which was at once i as the specimen lost by Mr. Rowley. On his being questioned he stated he received it from Taylor, who was at once arrested. A jury was convened, and a trial promptly commenced. “During its progress his tent was searched, and buried in the ground under a bed were found a number of articles of female clothing, a portion of which was identified by the ladies from whom they were stolen. Another negro, his partner, was arrested, and the trial was conclu- ded; fhe hey ay pone a eat Soeees, re- turned with a verdict of ty against James Tay- lor. When he was called on ® confess, he persisted in asserting his innocence. A vote was taken as to the nature of the punishment, which resulted in death by hanging. He then confessed having broken into the house of Mr. Rowley, but denied any know- ledge of the other robberies. On the way to the plece of execution, he expressed a desire to make a hn confession, which he did, but denied haying any accomplices, and repeated the same after his arrival at thefatal tree. e ordinary ceremonies usual on such occasions were performed with due decorum, and at four o’clock the guilty man expiated his crime upon the gallows. a iG was about twenty-five years of age, stood about five feet eight inches, and with a sinister looking countenance. He was trom Peters- burg, Va., his father belonging to Mr. Davenport, his mother a free woman. Census of San Francisco County. Below we sive the report of the result of the labors of Mr. F.
