Selma fell on the 2d of April, with a large number of prisoners and a large quantity of war material, machine shops, etc., to be disposed of by the victors.

Tuscaloosa, Montgomery and West Point fell in quick succession.

These were all important points to the enemy by reason of their railroad connections, as depots of supplies, and because of their manufactories of war material.

They were fortified or intrenched, and there was considerable fighting before they were captured.

Macon surrendered on the 21st of April.
