Central {(of Georgia)} Railroad
   The Columbus Sun, on the 5th instant, says, parties from the vicinity of Sherman's march along the Central Railroad represent that the road is injured beyond any reasonable period of time. Every telegraph pole has been cut up and burned, all the insulators broken to pieces and the wires badly cut up.
   The Southern Telegraph Company has commenced rebuilding its line. Over sixty-five miles has already been repaired. We are assured that the work will be pushed on as speedily as possible, but as new poles have to be put up and brackets and insulators provided, some time must elapse before it can be finished.
