He burned some bridges spanning the canal, and a very substantial one at Elk Island built by Mr. Randolph Harrison; but these were all for the accommodation of neighborhood communities. The transportation along the canal is not at all interrupted by anything the raiders did. These facts illustrate the wanton and ruthless spirit of our invaders.

It strikes us that this follower of Old Abe has furnished about as good an interpretation of the difference between the Northern and Southern soldier as could be desire
