DESTRUCTION oF RAILROADS.

By the way, the destruction of railroads
in this campaign has been most thorough.
The destruction of such long lines Of road
necessarily requires time, which in an ex-
pedition Of this kind is valuable in the
highest degree. The ordins, J method of
destruction was to place the rails across q
pile of burning sleepers, their own weight
bending them.
METHOD OF DESTRUCTION.
But this does not injure the rail so much,
but that it may be heated and Strengthened
again. Instruments have been made; one
is clasp, which locks under the rail. Ii
has 8 ring in the top, into which is insert
ed a long lever, and the rail is thus ripped
from the sleepers. When the rail has be-
come heated a wrench is applied, which fits
close over the ends of the rail; by turning
them in opposite directions the rail is so
twisted that even a rolling machine could
not bring it back into shape. In this man
ner have been destroyed some thirty miles
of rails which lay in the city of Atlanta,
and also all the rails on the Augusta and
Atlanta road from the last named place to
Madison; and thus far the Georgia Central
road, from a few miles east of Macon to
Terryville Station, where I am now writing

coMIOAL INCIDENTS.

NOAlNAA- 44NNALA4N AGs
We are continually meeting with comi-
cal incidents illustrative of the ignorance
Of the people and more especially of the
funny side Of negro character.
One old lady, white woman, stood at
her gate watching, with wondering eyes
q drove of cattle as they passed. "Lor'i
massy,n said she, Iwhar did all them beet
come from never seed so many in allmy
life"
.HThoss cattle wore driven all the way
from Chicago, more than one thousand

Goodness, Lol', what population you

General Sherman invites all able-bodied
negroes (othe1s could not make the march,
to Join the column, and he takes especial
pleasure when they join the procession, on
some occasions telling them they are free
that Massa Lincoln has given them theil
liberty, and that they can go where they
please: that if they earn their freedom
they should have it-but that Massa Lin
coin hsd given it TO them anyhow. They
all seem TO understand that the proclams-
ton Of freedom had made them free, anC
l have met but few instances where they
did not cay they expected the Yankees
we're coming down sometime or other and
very generally they are possessed with the
idea that we are fighting for them, and
that their freedom Is the object of the war
This notion they got from hearing tLetalE
of their masters.

Near Covington, one Judge Harris has
large plantation. Before We arrived 1t
was wen stocked; can't answer for Its
condition afterwards. A jollier set OF ne
groes 1 never saw than his were when the
blue coats came along. Horrible stories
of their cruelty to the negroes were told
by their masters to frighten them, but the
negroef never put one word of faith IN
them. 1 asked Judge Harris's head man !:
uWell, how do you like the Yankees p
'Iike 'em bully, bully. Ise wanted to

A Caution TO Sorghum Makers.

The following, which we find in recent number Of
the Montgomery Mail, may serve as a caution to the
thousands in this section who are about to begin tie
boiling of their sorghum. Let them see to it tua hy
do not fall into the committed hy the Ala
bamians:
Great quantities Of sorghum syrup are now being or
fered for sale in market--and prices have l2ns
down greatly. This fact, together with that mos q
much of it has already soured, and much OF the remain
der is in fair process OF becoming vinegar-has destroy
ed its sale, and there is consequently no marA.'
at all for it, and prices admit not OF quo
tation. As a natural consequence OF Its being 50
poorly made, in the expressive phrasing Of th
cuisine of its not being strongly cooked, many have
pronounced the sorghum humbug Others that eating
it made them sick. Our best information advises th1
the juice SHOULD be boiled up to the point OF olL
ing, and just before burning, taken of the fire. We
have eaten syrup thus prepared year DID, as good as
could be desired and certainly what has been done can
bs done again.
