Arrival of Lieut. Huntington

We were pleased last night to take by the hand the gallant Lieut. Huntington, of Company B. – He is rapidly recovering from the effects of his wound, though the bullet has not yet been extracted.  The Lieutenant gives a thrilling account of the terrible day at Donelson.  He leaves for home to-day, where he will meet with a hearty welcome.
