The Race.

The race that came off on Saturday, over
the Thornton course near this place, was
won by the Santa Barbara horse, by fifteen
feet. Distance, $40 yards. Stake, $500 a
side.
About thousand persons were present,
and everything passed off finely. Very lit
tie money changed hands, as the sorrel was
decidedly the favorite from first to last -
Two, four, and as high as six to one, was
freely offered, with but few takers.
Upon the nags being stripped, the scene
was most exciting. In appearance there is
no comparison between the two. The Bear
River horse is a toerably well muscled low
and logy animal, with no very striking marks
of speed lie was we'll trained, and his jock
ey good one, and made very fdit race.
The sorrel, when Uncovered and his rider
up, showed most beautiful. He proved him
self peacock, and strutted aroand, as tho
.'eager for the fray" He looked the very
pattern of first class race horse. He is
about thousand pound horse, IS hands
high, trim built, heavy muscled, chestnut
colored, as sleek as a mole, and is the finest
stock to all appearances, that has been in
these parts.
