Broad Rock Races-Third Day-Red Eye
once more Victorious over Nina.--We have
just witnessed the fastest, most closely contested
and most exciting race that has ever taken place
over the Broad Rock course; and we are strongly
inclined TO the opinion that the heaviness OF the
track considered il is the best race ever run in
America.
Our readers are well aware that yesterday was
the time appointed for the meeting Of Red Eye,
Nina, and Lawson, TO contend for the Jockey
Club purse Of 5000, as four mile heats. The an
nouncemenf of such a contest induced hundreds
aud hundreds OF persons TO lay business aside and
hasten Otto the course; and the consequence was
that Mayo's bridge, leading TO Chesterfield, was
alive with pedestrians, horsemen, and others, in
vehicles, who were bent on witnessing the sport,
from an early hour in the morning until meridian.
On reaching Broad Rock, we were astonshsd

Correspondence Of the st. Louis Republican.


SEPT. is, 1S53-The Salt Lake mail arrived yes
terday From one of the passengers we learn that,
upon the affidavits of some of the emigrants, Mr.
Bridger, Of Fort Bridger had told them that he in
tended 10 give the Utah Indians guns and ammn-
niton, for the purpose of exterminating the Nor
mons at Salt Lake. Writs were issued TO take
Bridger and bring him TO Salt Lake, and q COM
pany of men were sent for that purpose. When
they arrived they found Bridger gone. They
took possession of all the arms and ammunition,
and everything else, and were still there when the
mail passed.
II is also rumored that the Mormons have had
difficulty with the settlers at Green river and in
endeavoring 10 take man who would not sur
render they killed him.. This, however, is nothing
but rumor, and do not know its correctness.
FoRT LARAMIE, Sept. 13.--Nothing of any very
great interest is transpiring here just now, as the
season of emigration las passed. The traders are
out of sugar, and the Indians have stopped fight
ing for the winter. Among the trappers, there is
in reality much excitement on the subject of rail-
roads, and especially do they canvas the effect
which the early completion of the great road con-
Meeting the Indies is TO have upon beaver and
robes.
The Indian treaties distributions, &C., have all
gone of very we'll and Uncle Sans pocket has
been most gracefully relieved of few more extra
thousands Of dollars Some difficulty is appre-
hended with the Sioux in the neighborhood, in
consequence of the troops from the fort having
killed five or six men a short time since but
do not think ANYTHING serious will grow out of it,
AT all events we are quite well prepared for a
brush with them and only hope that il will take
place should like TO get few captives to take
down with me.

An Incident in Married Lifc.--Some thirteen
years since couple of loving ones were married
a short distance from this city, and soon after the
husband went 10 sea. A few months passed, and
the Young wife received news that the ship in
which her husband had sailed was lost at sea, and
all hands had perished. This report was subse-
quently corroboraied Time rolledon, and afterthc
lapse Of some seven years the widow married an
industrious and Woodworking mechanic, who for
a long time past has been and still is employed by
a firm in Cornhl. This last marriage proved a
happy one TO both parties, and matters passed be-
tween them as pleasantly could be desired, until
some ten days since, when, 10 their utter surprise,
the first husband Of the lady made his appearance
and claimedhis wife. Legal counsel was consulted
by both parties and the result was, that the lady
felt herself compelled TO return 10 her first husband,
much to the regret of the second, whose home is
now desoate.--- Boston Journal.

STEAMERS Between BALTIMoKE AMD SAvAHSAH.
The Savannah News, i'll referring to the impor-
lance of establishing line of steamers between
Baltimore and that city, says:
awe have not doubt that weekly line of
steam ships between Baltimore and savannah would
soon become paying investment, and that ltwould
vastly increase e commerce of Baltimore with our
section. Baltimore has already considerable
commerce with Savannah, but if she would COM
pete with New York and Philadelphia, she must
compete with them in means and facilities. Sue
cessful competition of this chracter will accom-
pIsh more for her advancement than all the com
mercial conventions that ever have been called to-
gether."
