THE EXECUTION OF Tom BELL The San
Francisco Sun contains full account of the
capture and execution of the noted robber,
Tom Bell The account is briefly as follows:
He was taken by party of men led by Mr..
Joseph Belt. They surprised him so sud-
denly that be had no time to escape or de-
fend himself. After confessing his identity;
nc told them his real name was Thomas
Hedges. He was granted at his request, a
short time to write to his friends in Tennes-
see, of which State he was a native. Tom
was an escaped convict, from the penteu-
tiary whittier he had been sent for Grand
Larceny. The Union, of Saturday publishes
an article proving the extract to be a hoax
According to the version it gives of the
matter, Tom was two hundred miles away
from the place of the reported execution at
the time specified.

SInnderinp the Miners.

The Black Republican organ, in San
Francisco, perpetrates villainous slander
upon the miners of California. Not content
with proclaiming that their own city has
been the scene of corruption, fraud, ballot
box stuffing and double-voting, this Black
Republican organ seeks to drag others down
to level with their own infamy, and accuses
the miners Of double voting, Of compelling
Cinnamon and Indians to vote, and of en-
tering their names as white men. The Edi-
tor says he has been some seven years in The
mines, and has witnessed these things, and
that miners admit it. and make fun of it.
What beautiful citizen this Black Repub-
lican skunk must have been, to witness such
transactions for 'sseven years. without
putting stop 10 it, and only mentions n ow
in order to make capital against the Demo
cratic party. He knows that large ma jOr
ity are democratic, because it is to the dem
ocratic party that they are indebted for the
privilege of working the mines without first
procuring license so to do like John Chi
namen! This pure minded Black Republi
can Editor does not mention the particular
locality where these frauds upon the ballot
box have been perpetrated by miners, but
casts the stigma upon the population gcner
ally, and backs 1t up by ''seven years res
idence" Should his statement be denied
we suppose he would make affidavit that hi
charge was true of his own knowledge ant
participation-as Black Republican coulC
hardly live "seven years in the mines,
without perpetrating some rascality-an(
miners must expect to be slandered, if they
permit Black Republicans, who come among
them, to make their escaped As nothing 0
| the kind has ever been perpetrated by th'
miners in this vicinity, we hope the Blacl
Republican will not include the miners o
Butte, in making its charges of fraud anC
corruption.

Steamer News.

The news brought by the Steamer, Golden
Age, should, in all justice, have an import
ant bearing in the present canvass in this
State. 1t is useless-it is worse than folly
for the Fillmore men to contend that tn cir
candidate has the least possible show of sue
cess. There is not northern State in
which their party is not crushed out of ex-
istence. Look at the result in Maine. Out
of an aggregate vote of $4,000, the Fill
more men" have polled but six thousand
blank cartridges They have no electoral
ticket in a majority of the northern States,
and yet they claim to be national party
The convention which nomin ated Mr.. Fill
more was composed of minority of the
States the balance withdrew and formed
the Republican party. An effort has been
made lately to revive the old line whig ar
ty, and convention assembled in Baltimore
in which but twenty-one States were repre-
senied They glorihcd themselves as oeing
a national party, when the fact was staring
them in the face that they had ceased to ex-
ist in one third of the States of the Union.
This is the result now, after having spent
eight months in the endeavor to secure a
national party to support Mr. Fillmore Ii
cannot be done Turn and twist it as they
may, the democracy are the only nationa
party in the contest The Know Nothings
! could not hold a convention Of all the State'
of the Union, because the Black Republican:
withdrew The old whig party have now
| failed to accomplish the feat Of holding q
national convention, because the Black Re
publicans have destroyed the party in ter
of the States There is not State in which
the Democratic party arc not thoroughly
organized and at work And although thu
sectional party Of Black Republicans may
/ beat them to the earth in some of the north
ern States, their heaven descended princi
pies are eternal AMI unconquerable, anC
they will again arise and send forth theil
battle-cry from every portion of the glori
GUS American confederacy.
Let national men take a calm and coo
survey of the field, and they will no Longer
pursue the jaok-o' lantern, which is but al
auxiliary to repubiicanism, and like th'
latter leads to the bogs and quicksands Q.

THE DEATH OF MR. VIM. BAILEY.-This
gentleman, one of our oldest residents, and
for long time partner with Mrs. McNeal
in the Empire Hotel, died on Friday night
last, from inflammation of the bowels. Dur
ing his residence here he had gained many
warm friends and was universally respected.
Mr.. Bailey was a native OF Missouri and
emigrated from thence to California in l849
Thus, one by one, are the pioneers of our
adopted home taken from US, leaving but
few to tell US the tale of those wondrous
times, such times as only those of us who
were here then ever have seen, and such a.
never will be seen again while the world
stands.

HAMILTON RACES Through the kind
ness of Mr. Ned Willis, We have been fur
nished with the following items about the
races on Saturday:
The first race was between Mr.. Cooly's
Black mare and DR.. Whorton' 5 brown mare.
Distance, 600 yards, for purse of $500.
The Whorton mare won by few lengths
The fancy" consider it a throw off race,
they having found by measurement, the
leaps of the Black mare to be only seventeen
ieet, whereas she usually makes twenty, at
least, in a fairly contested race.
After that, Alex kciby's horse Buck, and
Bill Lewis horse Blue Bird, ran a race Of
300 yards, which resulted in Bucks beating
Blue Bird about length. This was .son
the square "
The next race was between George Green's
black mare and DR.. Whortons brown mare.
The Whorton marc won by about a hundred
feet.
The days sport was concluded by a spirit
ed scrub race between two Spanish colts
What distance they ran we are uuinftrmcd,
but we are authorized to state that one If
them came out ahead.
