Detention of the Cars.

--The mail train of the Central railroad due in this city at 15 minutes past 6 o'clock Thursday did not arrive until 11 o'clock of the same night, owing to the delay occasioned by the accommodation train running off the track at Atlee's Station, nine miles from Richmond, by the misplacement of a switch. The engine of the latter train was placed on the track as soon as a sufficient force could be obtained to effect the object, when the regular train came on to the city. No injury was done to person or property.
