Mr. A. H. Clark . . .

. . . a private in company B, son of Mr. Palmer Clark of this city, it will be remembered, was one of the wounded at Fort Donelson.  We see, in a list published in an Illinois paper, that he is at Mound city, and his leg has been amputated.  This latter report we are disposed to doubt, as his father has late accounts from him, saying he was much better, and might be expected home last night or this morning.
