Why THE CHESAPEAKE AND ONO MAIL
DIDN'T Go IEsTERDAY.-The Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad train left the city yesterday
morning without the mail owing to the fact
that Thomas B. Hanley, the mail agent, was
taken suddenly sick, and it was not known
in time to supply his place. The Lynch
burg, LynchburS and Bristol, and all mail
for the Southwest, was sent by the Danrille
train at o:25 to connect with the Southslde
road, thus losing no time. The Charottes.
vile and Orange mail was sent to Alexandria
to connect with the night train.
