DELAYED TRAINs-HEAvY TRAvEL.-The
large number OF passengers over all OF our
railroads visiting the Centennial, and per-
haps in some cases other causes, are causing
great delay IN the arrival Of the mails, and
thereby no little inconvenience to our mer-
chants and other businessmen. The north
ern mail due here at 5 O'Clock in the morn
ing, the letters by which are usually ready
for delivery by O'Clock, or earlier, has OF
late been delayed very frequently until
G:30, and sometimes I o'clock. The after
noon mail from the North is also often be-
hind time, but not so much, however, as the
morning mail.
The afternoon mails from the South and
Southwest, which come over the Danville
road, have recently been delayed so long
that delivery in the afternoon is i'm possible.
Letters and papers from Lynchburg which
come by that route are therefore twenty
four hours old before they are received ny
those to whom they are addressed. This is
q serious inconvenience to all parties con-
cerned, and we suppose cannot be helped
just at present. Those, therefore, who are
incommoded by it must make the best OF it
they can, hoping that the disarrangement
will be only temporary.

stf RIcHMoND, September 28, 1876.
Editors Of the Dispatch, The perfection
OF our excellent public school system has
been sounded throughout: the land, its ex-
cellency having been enthusiastically COM
mended by the best educators Of Massachu-
setts, who, after personal examinations,
declared our schools even better than those
of Boston. ss3s
Phonetic exercises were at first taught,
and are, 7 believe, still q feature OF our
schools. Now, IL this feature will not break
the back Of our already over den camel, ]
venture toisuggest the terpsichorean arts:
not to be compulsory, only those children
attending who desire such an education.
There can be nothing sectarian in this. By
all means let us have the "poetry OF mo-
tion " taught.
BY the introduction OF this new feature
our schools, already SO popular with the
public, viii become perfect paradise to the
children. am led to make this suggestion
from the "awkward hop, skip. and Jump y
Of the children as they pour out OF the school
building. They could then "waltz out"
