Damage to the Railroads
   The damage to the railroads in East Tennessee {East Tennessee & Virginia RR and East Tennessee & Georgia RR} by the incendiarism of last week is estimated at $50,000. The bridging burned on the Western & Atlantic road was between five and six hundred feed; what its estimated cost was we have not learned. The loss on all the roads, however, from the destruction of property, is trifling compared with that resulting from the interruption of the transportation.
