   Unless the management of the railroad from Atlanta is improved we shall be compelled to fall back. The stock of corn provided is generally very bad, and is brought in such small quantities that when bad is received it or none must be issued. Our stock is already suffering. In the last two days a half ration of corn for the army has been received.
