From the Wilmington Journal
December 1, 1864
 
   The Augusta Sentinel of the 26th publishes the following:
From Central {(of Georgia)} Railroad and Vicinity
   The enemy's destruction at Milledgeville is said to embrace the State House, Executive Mansion, Penitentiary and Depot, and other buildings. The report that the asylum was destroyed is contradicted.
   The rumor in town that Sherman captured a large lot of ammunition at Milledgeville is incorrect. All the ordnance stores were removed. Three car loads of the powder passed through this city on Friday on the way to Columbia, S. C.
