| Point of Rocks, Md., Sept. 11 |
| Union men from Martinsburg on
Saturday report that the rebels have taken up the entire track of the B.
& O. R. R. from that town to North Mountain, a distance of 9 miles, and
transported the rails, etc., to Winchester, for the extension of the
Alexandria, Loudon & Hampshire Railroad from Strausburg to that point.
The track torn up was lately relaid by the Company. |
| At Duffield's Station, on he
B. & O. R. ., the rebels were busily engaged in taking down seven or
eight new and first class locomotives for transportation to Winchester.
These locomotives had but recently been put upon the route. Some of them
are of the heaviest kind, and were probably spared by the rebels in the
recent conflagration on account of their adaptability to transporting
troops in Virginia. |
