Death of Another Child of Rev. Dr. Harrison.

We published yesterday, from the Central Presbyterian, a most touching and beautiful tribute to the memory of Captain Dab Carr Harrison,-- who fell so hormonally effort Donelson,--in which appropriate al is made to the fall of his brother Pey Man as, and the death of a sister, days after his own fall at Donelson.--In aged father has since been called upon to another lovely and accomplished who died within the enemy's lines, and was buried at Martinsburg on Sunday, the 3th inst. This latter was the beloved wife of Adjutant Pobart W. Hunter, of the Virginia Regiment, who less than one year ago led her to the altar a lovely land happy bride. There is something peculiarly in the afflictions which have over the Rev. Dr. Harrison since the com of the present war. Four devoted and dutiful children have found their last resting place; but with true Christian philosophy the aged disciple sustains the , and with mask submission declares that he has yet two other sons to offer upon his country's altar, and when they are gone he will take the field himself.
