Virginia Central Railroad
Accommodation Train Between Charlottesville and Richmond
   On and after Monday, June 15th, an Accommodation Train will leave Charlottesville daily, (Sundays excepted,) at 2:30 A. M., and arrive at Richmond at 9:05 A. M. Returning, will leave Richmond at 3 o'clock P. M., and arrive at Charlottesville at 9:15 P. M.
   This train offers facilities for transportation of milk, fresh meats, vegetables, &c., to Richmond, and a part of one of the Company's warehouses will be temporarily fitted up for the sale of such articles by any person who may choose to bring them by the train.
   Articles consigned to L. D. Sizer, one of the Company's Agents, will be sold by him at this place, on commission, where persons do not wish to come to the city.
   By this arrangement persons living at a distance can obtain for articles, usually of little value to him, the market rates of Richmond.
   The Company will return empty buckets, tins, &c., which have been sent to Richmond with articles for sale, free of charge.
