Sad Casualty -- Two Soldiers Killed
   Yesterday (Saturday) two soldiers were killed on the South Western Railroad, about seven miles from Macon, under the following melancholy circumstances: They were on the top of the cars and one of them standing, was struck by the first Tobesanfkee bridge, which he did not observe, and almost instantly killed. His companion sprang to his feet and run to the hinder part of the train to call surgical assistance, but while running the train reached the second bridge with equally fatal results in regard to him. The bodies were brought to town by the evening train. We did not learn the names of the soldiers.
