TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 27.
Exciting’ Race.—A grand ““‘Zou-Zou”
face came off at Blaze’s Saloon, on Christmas Eve. “Erin-go-Unum,” in blue and
silver, entered by F. Fisher, Esq. “E. Pluribus Bragh,” in‘ red and gold, entered by J.
Bazeley, Esq. The track selected, Blaze’s
counter. Stakes, drinks for the crewd.—{
Judges of starting and outcome, Messrs. A.
C. Niles, T. T. Davenport, T. H.Caswell
and C. Kent. The result of the race attracted an immense crowd.’ The first heat,
which exhibited great bottom and skillful
traning, was declared by the judges ‘te-te
foul. The second heat, in which both “Eo
Pluribus Bragh” and “Erin go Unum” did
aniple justice to the judgment of their backers, was declared a dead heat. While pre:
parations were making for the third heat,
“E. Pluribus
Bragh” had evidently become the favorite,
and many bets were offered on him but no
takers. All being in readiness, at the word,
they started evenly for the third heat. “E.
Pluribus Bragh,” however, soon. opened a
gap between himself and opponent, which
he maintained throughout, winning the raceeasily,.in 1:374—the quickest autamaton
: time on record.
. THE WEATHER.—By the wacer ‘guage:
kept at the, South Yuba Canal Company’s
office, three inehes-and seventy-eight hundredths of rain had fallen between Friday
night and noon yesterday. . The rains have
been continuons, and part of the time very
heavy, with high wind on Sunday night, and
the mountain’streams have risen liigher than
during any previous storm. Had not we the
evidénce of the Union tixt the former storms
had not even raised the-wi ter at Sacramento
enough to more than, touch the base of the
splendid new levee, we should be apprehen_ sive that that thriving city might suffer from
the terrible torrents that are being dischargedtéwards the valleys.” As our neighbors
are 80 safe we enjoy the storm, and say “let
it come.”’ .The miners and farmers are glad,
and the early promise of the season is kept
up. We think the sudden ang unusual rise
of the creeks is owing to the rain extending
far towards the summit, washing off the
snows left by the last storm, although on.
Friday night it was nearly cold enough for
snow in this city. The miners have kept to
work, ‘employing the uriusual abundance of
water in sluicing off top dirt. One direct
‘benefit of the frequent freshets this year has
been experienced in washing out from the
beds of the creeks billions of tons of tailings,
which have been accumulating for two years
past, burying up flooms, and interfering with
the “fall” in many claims. -Deer Creek
has washed_out fifteen feet” and Greetihorn
sixty feet.
DESPERADO SHOT.—We ‘learn from H.
Place that a shooting affair took place at
Washington, on Saturday, between Joseph
Coin and Henry Burns, resulting in the
death of the latter. Burns was a Chiv.,
noted for reckless disregard of human life,
having killed one or more persons in affrays,
and was the terror of the community. About
12 o'clock Saturday, he picketta fuss with.
Coin—who is apeaceable miner—in ‘a
saloon, and threatened him, when Coin procured a pistol. Burns met Coin again in
the street, andcommenced an attack upon
him, when Coin fired twice, mortally-wounding Burns, who died at 3 o'clock Monday
morning. Coin was examined before Justice
Root and discharged, his act being clearly in
te We learn from a pase, Si Eumka township that the snow fell eight inches at the town of Eureka on Saturday night,
but it commenced raining in the morning,
and is probably raining to the summit. The
snow is about four feet deep on the Henness
Pass between Eureka and Bowman's. Beyond Bowman’s to thé summit the snow is
lighter, and there is very little
slope of the Sierra.
tA Grand Social Party will be given.
at the National Exchange, on. next Monday
evening. The arrangemente are almost
completed, and full particulars will be given in to-morrow’s TRANSCRIPT.
