INTERESTING DIARY OF A STATE SANITARY
AGENT.
KNGsToN, GA.,lJune 18th, 'G4.
arrived at this place this morning at
day break, having been detained about nine
hours in consequence of a raid upon the
road by the rebs the day before A very
superior locomotive was thrown from the
track bya torpedo, No persons were in
sight at the time of the explosion, but soon
after, a gang Of rebs appeared and burned
the train, consisting Of five cars. What was
very singular, no prisoners were taken, and
f
no attempt was made to injure or rob any
one on the train. It so happened that there
were no passengers, and none on board ex-
cept the employees Of the train. This eve
ming six guerillas we're brought i'll by our
pickets, taken bout six miles from here
while at a blacksmiths shop getting their
horses shod. They are supposed to be a
part Of the gang that bIowed up the train.
What disposition will be made with them
do not know, but it is to be hoped that
mete and ample justc will be dealt out to
them. o
I2th.--It has rained hard all day, in fact
it las rained almost every day this month,
thus far. The whole country is one COM
plets mass Of mud; not only the roads, but
for indefinite spaces on each side; for nearly
the whote distance from Dallas here, the
fences have somehow disappeared, and if
the travelling is any better through the fields
norespect is had to growing crops Or any
thing else, except to appropriate what may
bu wanted for The use Of the moving army.
At Resaca where, it will be recollected, we
fought severe battle, the rebs had, natur-
ally very strong position and they had
made it doubly 50, by the erection of e%
tensive broastworks, redoubts, &c, and the
citizens from there, forward, were assured by
johnson, that they need entertain no fears
of the Federal army getting beyond that
place except as prisoners of war. Conse-
quently they had planted thir crops in the
firm belief that they would permitted to reap
the fruits Of their labor, Cor rather their ne
groes' labor in peace. But thank God the
Federal army did get beyond and is still
marching on" unscrupulously appropiat-
ing the fields of growing wheat, corn and
oats to the sustenance Of the thousands Of
horses and mules in its wake. Gen. Kill
patricks Division ofCavaly are cainped here
at present, to which is attached the 10th
Wis. Battery, The boys Of the Battery are
generally in good health The command
at present, consists of III men on duty, 10
in hospital and prisoners Of war, III the
hands of the enemy. There are several
trains of cars loaded with Commissary and
Ordnance stores, and troops for the 'front.'
but as there are several trains still i'll front,
orders have been received to send no more
at present. as it is feared that too large an
accumulation Of stores at one point, will eN-
cite the cupidity Of the rebs and induce them
to venture q raid. I5md9c
90 l3th.-Noneiys from the front, and no
cars running in that direction. The rain
still continues, and the weather is uncom-
fortably cold Word having been brought
that train would start for the front this
evening, or dnring the night, at about 10
O'Clock this evening went, in company
with Capt VIM Waite, of the 18th Ills.
Infantry, to get on board; when, in passing
under a car, to get to the opposite side OF
the train, the Captains pistol fell from his
pocket, the lock striking the rail, and discharg
ing it. The ball entered his right breast,
and was cut out at the point of the right
shoulder. That, of course, prevented his
going on, and as he is an old acquaintance
and personal friend, remained with him, but
it was just as well, for the train did not
go.
14th.-This evening the Capt. was carried
to the hospital. The rain seems to have al
last ceased, at least it has not rained to day.
| No incident worthy Of note has occurred, at
this post to-day. The telegraph reports
the fall Of Fort Darling.
18th. This morning, two squads Of reb-
Ell prisoners were Brought in. One, Of thir
ty-two, comprising one entire Company
with the Captain and three Lieuts. On en-
quiry, this squad proved to be deserters,
Iapd belonged to the 54th Va. Infantry
They were on picket, and having agreed
among themselves, to desert, approached
our lines and when within hailing distance
halted. and one of the number advances
nearer, and in q loud voice, cried out, Gamer
