Lieut. Huntington, of Co. B, Sergeant Hall, of Co. C, and fifteen recruits for the army, left here yesterday on the Metropolitan for St. Louis. Thence they will proceed to the Tennessee river to join their regiment, which is destined soon to participate (if it has not already done so) in one of the most terrific battles of the war, or one of the most extensive pursuits of a flying enemy.
