They know better, how ever, and will not disturb our sleep to-night. A few shots were exchanged between the picke.s of the two armies across the Conga- ree and Saluda. - Near our camp and close "by the road on which the 15 th army eorps was marching, were the remains of camp Sorgum, where. Federal officers had been kept as prisoners of war. COLUMBIA FOREDOOMED. The feeling of the Army of Tennessee is well illustrated by a profane aitd ferocious doggerel, which was sung by hnndreds of of the 15th Army corps: . - “Hail Columbia happy land. If I don’t bum you I’ll bo d- _. This effusion was said’to have been utter ed by a Major-General as ho was crossing the Saluda. (It was not Sherman.) The doom of Columbia was decided at camp Sor gum, and neither Sherman nor any,.other man conld have saved it from severe treat ment. Tho 15th Army corps crossed the Saluda with hut little opposition, and en camped on the tongue of land it and the Broad. Next morning (17th) about 8 a.hi. loud and repeated explosions in. the city were heard. At 9 a. in., an extensive fire was seen in the neighborhood of the. Char lotte depot. From this to 11 a. m., cotton was seen burning in the streets. Abtpit this time brisk'skirmishing was heard to the north of the city. Immediately a squad of soidiers from the 13th Iowa sprang into two boats and paddled across the Congaree.— On landing they started for the State House, Tn order to have the honor of raising the" flag of their regiment on the building in ad vance of the 15th-Amiy Corps, white flags were now seen on most of the houses and in the hands of citizens on the streets. “De good God snid it must he so, And, honey, I for o"ne, II ith thankful heart will always say His holy will be done. “I taifSIr: Mart Lincoln all de same, But when I wants for free, I’ll ask de Lord of Glory, And not poor bnchera* like he. “And as.-for gilded carriages, De’s nothing ’tall to see; Ole mnssa’s coach that carries him Is good enough for me. ti u'Hivjf, it iieu y.uur mammy To change her homespun dress, She’ll pray, like dear ole misses, ’lo be clothed with righteousness. defaced by blows from muskets, arid masked ' by axes and hairimere. .

As tho route’was encumbered with the trains of these troops, and some five miles in length we did not reach Columbia until about 8. p. m.- As we marched through the town there were no sign or appearance «f fire anywhere..

It was reported that there were 10,000 bottles of tlio article, in the ex-Governor’s house, and a still largfer qnantity in that of Secretary Tronholm. As to the amount I cannot say, but there was wine enough ob tained from their houses to make more pen in our division drunk than I ever saw in two years before. About 10 p. m. fire began to spread over the city, and a noise- front the grand revel could be heard.

WHAT WAS DONE BT NORTHERN DEMOCRATS. At noon I returned to my regiment, en gaged in destroying the railroad riear tho city. Close at hand was a vacant building containing a fine library, belonging to tho Rhett, Barnwell, Hey wood and Middleton families. It was fired and ( ,burned in tho presence, and without a word of remon strance, of an officer commanding a brigade, who has since been a candidate on the Dem ocratic Ticket in. a Western State. COLUMBIA IN RUINS. - On the 19th, hundreds of men were en-, gaged m destroying the last vestige of eve- rything that had been or could be used for military purposes. Houses that had been used for that purpose were burned and bat tered down under the superintendence of Gen. Sherman. Fires repeatedly occurred where houses were found to contain cotton tar or turpentine. The guards declared they were cases of “spontaneous combus- tton the “heart of King Cotton becoming bred at the sight of the stars and stripes.”— At 5 p. m. the large arsenal was blown up. 1 lie standing order on tfie march to the sea, to destroy government property “in a man- - tier more devilish than can bo dreamed of” was fully carried out. Next morning our brigade, the last of Sherman’s army, left the ruins of what had been a city ot 30,000 in habitants. _ ' TIIE AUTHOR. A lady asked Gen. Sherman: . “Why did you burn our town, or allow yonr army to do so ? “I did not bfirn your town, nor dtdmyarmy. Your brothers, sons, hus bands and fathers set fire to every ' city ■ town and village in the land when they fired cn Fort Sumter. That fire, kindled then and there by them, has been burning ever since and reached your house last m-riit.” “Well, were you not in command ofthe ar my last night ?” “I did not command my army last night, and cannot command my men when they are drank.” “Will you al low ua'to go to Charleston?” “Ypti have. iny full consent to go wherever you wish, N but do not go there.'
