ALEXANDRIA, August Il, 1859.
VIM. King, sailor employed on the ship Chas
Ward, which arrived here yesterday from the
Chincha Islands, was this morning stabbed and
MORALLY wounded, by a shipmate named Joseph
Riley 1t seems that in an ARRAY last night Riley
was badly beaten by King who II 10 alleged struck
Riley several times with a slung shot, knocking
out some Of his teeth, and otherwise dishyuring
him. After this difficulty Riley went on board
the ship, and King stopped all night at a sailor
boarding house on Union street, kept by Captain
Eli Pettey, where he had previously engaged
board. About five O'Clock this morning RILEY
came to the house and asked for King; the man In
attendance, fearing that some difficulty would oc-
cur, told him that King was not there. Riley then
walked through the house into the yard where
King was washing his face, and stepping up to
him thrust knife into his breast In the region OF
the heart. King lived but few moments and
did not speak after receiving the fatal blow RILEY
was arrested by Officer Psdgeu. and secured until
further investigation of the affair can be had
