From the Richmond Dispatch |

April 11, 1861 |

We learn that the {Virginia}
Central Railroad has sustained
serious injury — so much so that the mails will not leave by that
route for several days to come — the earth has been washed very
badly in sundry places along its line of travel. We have already noted
the injury sustained by the Fredericksburg Road
{Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac RR},
and have only to add that its officers have as yet been unable to
determine its extent. |

The Central Railroad
authorities will today send western bound passengers to the Junction,
via the Fredericksburg Road. The
Central Road
has not been injured by the flood beyond that point. |
