NEWARK, June 22.-There was
great excitement at Bloomfield this
morning. The citizens were called
out, by violent ringing Of the church
bells, TO resist the encroachments on
the Midland road, for which a bridge
is about to be built across the Pater-
son turnpike in that village. Several
hundred citizens rallied and drove
away the railroad men, who are
about to seek legal remedy.

RnnANRY.

There are many who sneer at the
style Of riding in vogue among Mext-
cans, and pronouhce Il theatrical and
fiashy, requiring nothing but the
knowledge Of q few simple tricks IN
horsemanship. They assert that the
heavy jaw-breaking bit and cumber-
some saddle are %barbarous, and but
cheap a~uxiliaries by aid Of which no
feat In equestrianism Is difficult. They,
hold that the ptgskin and snaf1e should
be the only furniture Of o horse, and
point to a fox-hunt over q rough coun-
try as the perfection Of riding. 10
such as have seen the achievements Of
a vaauero In q mountainous country,
with wild cattle or the ponderous griz-
civ as objects Of the chase, these opin-
ions have no weight. liza good Mexi-
can rider wishes to capture a cgjOte, he
runs Il down without aid from hounds,
and either lassoes 1t or catches 1t by
the tall, leaning from the saddle, as
the notion takes him. An example OF
the GOODNESS and skill which result from
long familiarity with horses and the
possession Of perfect control over the
animal was illustrated yesterday. A
frightened horse dashed into FrolIt
street, out of Market dragging o bug
Nv, In which was seated IAN elderly
gentlemen, who chung to the hood Of
the vehicle with both hands. The brl-
die and bit had fallen from the beasts
head, the lines dragged on the ground,
and all control over the excited animal
was thus lost. A disastrous end of the
epIsode seemed imminent; everything
indicated that a dreadful calamity was
inevitable, when suddenly a vaquero,
mounted on an active mustang, rode
swiftly from a side street to the side Of
tie runaway horse. For some distance
the two horses raced side by side, the
vaquero leaning from the saddle. and
engaged in constructing q temporary
ridta from the reins. This he succeed
ed In fastening to the neck of the now
doubly-terrlfied animal attached to the
buggy, ultimately checking his onward
career. The feat WAS handsomely
done, and the vaquero, who thus saved
a life, was loudly congratulated by the
bystanders on his SUCCESSION Fran

A special dispatch, dated Alta, CAL,

While the ea~stcrn-bound passenger
train, which left San francisco this
morning. was making the usual stop
at this place, and while the passengers
were ut supper. the lock on the mail
III was opened, and the al entered
and robbed Of n package of registered
letters and n package containing So
600 in coin. The train stood In its
usual place-tbe locomotive, express
and baggage cars standing above the
water tank Both mail agents were ut
supper during the time the mail car
was robbed. So quietly was the work
done that the attention Of the guard in
the express end Of the car was not
attracted.
Immediate search was made by the
railroad ehiployes, and the mail sack
was found under tho freight-house
platform. Both sides of the sack had
been ripped open and the registered
letters taken out. But two packages
Of coin were found in the sack.
Parties have started In pursuit, and
the chances Of the robbers getting of
are very slim.

O'Clock last night, with officers and
employees, to stop at Alta or 60 further
If necessary, for the purpose of track
ing the robbers. ,.
Another special train left Wads-
worth, Nevada, at about the same
time, coming west, with n number of
railroad employees, who will endeavor
to intercept the robbers should they
attempt to cross the mountains.
