The Top Rails Only.

From the Lumpkin (Ga.) Independent.
Noticing that Captain w. III. Harri-
son of the executive department has
been relating some of his war tales to
a Constitution reporter, we asked Sam
Everett if he could not give us an in
cident of his experience in the valley
of Virginia. Sam said he wasn't much
on yarns unless he had some of the old
Thirty-frst Georgia to laugh at them,
but he would venture to give us one.
Gordon'sd division were encamped upon
a thrifty farm that was fenced with
pine rails, something unusual in that
section of country. General Gordon
knew that his men were obliged to
have wood to cook with, SO he issued
an order for them to use only the top
rails, and under penalty ofsevere pun
ishment not to disturb any others.
Next morning when the general awoke
not a rail was left to show where this
fence had been, and the captains were
ordered to report at once as to the dis
obedience ofthe order. Among others,
Captain Harrison of the Thirty-frst
handed in his report. 1t stated that
he only allowed one man at a time to
go for rails, and that each one took a
top rail, acting strictly in accordance
with the general orders. Ofcoursethe
last men to go found the top rails at
the bottom. General Gordon made a
soldierly bow and announced that the
investigation had ended.
