Col.
   I will commence tomorrow to ship all the machinery, stores &c of this Arsenal to Macon and Augusta, adapting shipments to facilities afforded for transportation by the Rail Roads to these points. I shall endeavor to send all the machinery to Augusta and the stores to you, as far as practicable.
   Although this has been deemed best just now, I am in hopes it may yet prove premature, and that in a short time I will be able to have everything returned and put in operation as before.
I am Col,
Very Respy
