To destroy everything in the South. They had a policy of 'total war'--meaning, they weren't going to stop until they damaged or destroyed everything they could get to. It was to completely devastate the South, and make it the biggest loss they could get for them. The more that was destroyed, the more they were going to have to clean up after the war, and the harder it was going to be on the Southern states.
