A special correspondent of this journal narrates his experience of the first stage of the journey from Columbia towards Augusta, Georgia. The journey he says is seven miles long, occupies three hours and more, and is made in the dark. They were called from bed at three o'clock in the morning, several coaches were filled up with sleepy, shivering travelers, and then till after six o'clock the time was consumed in slowly moving through the wind and rain to Hampton, Georgia's Turn Out. Some of the members already on their way home were in the coach, and spoke together about the character of the two houses, and the work that had been accomplished.
