Powhatan Relief Society.

--The ladies of the county of Powhatan have organized a Relief Society, as an auxiliary to the one previously formed by the ladies of Richmond.--The object of the association is to minister to the wants of our sick and wounded soldiers. That the excellent ladies of Virginia will do all that can be done by ministering ‘"angels,"’ to promote the comfort of their sons and brothers in the tented field, even to denying themselves, we have never for a moment doubted; and the assurance of their sympathy is a source of unalloyed satisfaction to those who have gone forth to fight for liberty and independence.
