Charles L. Powell, Jr., the son of Charles L. Powell, formerly of Winchester, Va., has joined the noble army of patriot martyrs who have passed from the storm of the battlefield to the peace of Heaven. At the beginning of this war, his elder brother, Lloyd Powell, broke from the trammels of a lucrative business, in which he was engaged in Il- linois, to hasten to the defence of his native State. He gave but two weeks to the endearments of a home from which he had been separated as many years before, taking his place in the ranks of our army, within almost as brief a period to offer up his young life in its many vigor and rich promise.
