The BURNERS.


A correspondent, formerly with Gen
Sberman's army, makes the following
allusion to the Bummers, who were sc
conspicuous in the recent great re-
view at Washington:
"As the army began to move north.
ward from Savannah the foragers
spread over the country, and in irregu-
lar and regular parties went skirmish.
ing in all directions. These enter
prising characters were known by the
names of " Bummers," Smoke house
Rangers" and "Do-boys." A bum
,ner is an individual who. by favor of
q wagon master becomes possessed
of broken down mule. Or else starts,
if need be, on foot, in either case, Of
course, armed with his musket He
makes his way into the enemy's coun-
try, finds horses in numbers by help
Of the negroes, bitches a team to
wagon, loads OH it all the stores and
supplies he can find in the nearest
house, and returns with his spoils.
He never objects to gold watches or
silver plate "if he can find them in a
swamp mile from any house." These
men were stragglers not in rear but
in front of the army, and they went
before it like a cloud, being often
twenty to thirty miles in advance Of
the head Of the column. They would
fight anything. Three bummers to-
gether would at any time attack
a company Of rebel cavalry. and
in favorable circumstances would dis
perse them and capture their booty.
With the exception Of Columbia alone,
every town in South Carolina through
which the army passed was first en-.
tered by the bummers. At Chester.

When the army was marchin:
toward Midway, as above described,
smoke house ranger was seen rush

Howard, and shouted out: General
