   It is important to put in running order the railroad from West Point, via Atlanta, to Augusta {the Atlanta & West Point RR and the Georgia RR}. Cannot you impress or otherwise obtain 900 negroes, to report to Major Hottle, assistant quartermaster, who has charge of the work? Prompt action is necessary.
