A Screw Loose |
The Savannah Republican says that recently
government flour was passing over the North Carolina railroad from
Raleigh to Charlotte on the same day that other government four
was passing the other way, from Charlotte to Raleigh. Also, that shot
of the same calibre and description have been passing from Mobile to
Montgomery and from Montgomery to Mobile. And yet again; that sugar
has been carried from Vicksburg to Jackson, and then again from
Jackson towards Vicksburg. Considering the burdens of transportation
over all railroads, this is inexcusable folly of some of the
officials. |
