Since, the Delta has received the following
melancholy history.
Frank Warrington, well-known Young
man, native of Virginia, who has resided
here for ten or twelve years, who was
c;iptaln in the Louisiana volunteers in the
Mexican war, was conversing on Tuesday
mofaug about O'Clock, with some per-
sons IN front OF a carabet, at the corner of
Circus and Common streets. Among 9TH
ers IN the party, WAS young man who has
lately arrived here. of the name of A. Gril-
fifth, from North Alabama, lawyer by pro
tessiOD, who had come TO this city with a
view Of locating in his business. II appears
that discussion arose between Warning
ton and Griffith, when the latter disputed
statement made by the former, and finally
charged him with taisehood; whercupon
Warrington struck him. Griffith staggered,
but recovering himself, drew bowie knife,
and stabbed Warrington in the abdomen,
causing CHASTITY aud horrible wound, from
which the bowels of the young man protru-
del. Griffith then went 10 his boarding
house, but was watched and arrested the
next morning.
Warrington was carried 10 the Charity
Hospital, aud, after lingering in great ago
nv, was pronounced, on Tuesday, AS past
all hopes of recovery. He died between 8
and O'Clock yesterday morning. Previous
10 his death, Griffith was taken to the hos
pital, and confronted with the dying man.
Warrington then asked him several aues-
tions. to which Griffith answered promptly,
acknowledging that he had been with him,
that he had called n statement OF his false
hood, that Warrington had struck him, but
denying the laiter's solemn and positive
nvernent that he had given him The fatal
stab. Warrington repeated The statement
with great posifiveness, adding, ''Why did
you not stab me in the heart at once, and
not in this manner so As TO proiong my SUE:
!eringS;'' Shortly afterwards he died.
Griffith was removed TO prison.
