Letter from Petersburg.
PETERSBURG, June 6, 1871
. the Editor of the State Journal .

| TO the Editor of the State Journal:
Politics and business seem usually dull
aud since our friends, the Baptists anc
Episcopalians, have left US, our streets
have assumed their old Sunday appear
ance, and the merchants are beginning to
complain again.
The farmers in this vicinity have already
commenced harvesting their wheat. The
prospect of good crop is rather dscour-
aging, as the rust has seriously damaged
many fields.
The Republican City Committee met
last night at the courthouse to talk over
the late conflict, and compare results. But
little business was transacted. A vacancy
was reported in the position of watchman
In the Interior Department at Washington,
caused by the resignation of Mr.. H. 4,
Tatum. The committee recommended Mr.
David F. Bate for the place.
The change OF schedule on the railroads
from here through to New York is regard
ed as a good step in the direction of
modern enterprise and progress. We can
now start from Petersburg very early in
the morning "a o'clock) and arrive at New
York the same night.
But the change has its drawbacks. II
greatly lnterferes with the business rela-
tions between the cities of Richmond and
Petersburg in our mail arrangements. If
a letter for Richmond is not mailed before
half-past o'clock in the morning it will
not leave until o'clock at night. fear
it will interfere with my valuable letters
for your. paper, and you may not be able
to hear from me at ALL To avert, if posi-
bic, such sad calamity to your readers
called to-day on our postmaster to see if
he could help me out.
He informs me that he has already writ |
zen letter to the Post. Office Department,
asking that'a local inail be put on the 10 |
A. M. train. AS an additional reason wby
his should be done, he says, the Norfolk |
nail, which arrives here at 10 o'clock, will
rave to lie over until night. As the re.
luest OF Mr. Greene involves important
nail facilities between the three largest
itles of the State, it is to be hoped his ap-
'lication will be granted. am sure the
ntlre business community of the three
itles will second his request. Until that
done you may not hear from me even
