The "MudsIIl- Legislators.

On our march to the sea we stopped
at Milledgeville. the capital of Geor.
gia. The legislature had been in SEES
sion, but that honorable body ad-
journed in hurry upon the approach
OF Sherman's army. and about 200 Of
us took possession OF the house of
representatives. says writer in the
National Tribune. We elected full
set of officers and made laws govern
ing everything. We passed bill unan-
imously condemning the invading
Northern Mujsills" to death. After
stormy" session we discussed
whether 1t was best to move the capi-
tol on wheels or horseback. We con.
cluded that the latter was safest, as
It might in that manner be possible to
escape from "Sherman's bummers."
We then voted thanks to everybody,
from the president down. and nd.
tourned to meet when the invaders
were driven from the sacred soil" Of
