Important capture.

--The Mississippian contains an interesting account of Captain Witherspoon's raid near Dalton. This regiment, the Twenty-sixth Mississippi, captured a construction depot, with immense material. Duplicate bridges for the entire road to Atlanta were made, and numbered, and ready for use, together with everything necessary for a new road. A large amount of fine carpenters' tools were captured, also the mechanics--two hundred in number — who were employed in using them. The capture of this depot alone will prove a fearful blow to Yankee transportation on that railroad, while it will be of immense value to us.
