Lieut.. Alexander and soldier by the name

hands tied, and got bowie knife and i'm
mediately returned and walked up to the
bound man and stabbed him to his heart,
killing him instantly-Finnerty at the time
begging Alexander not to murder him.
In the same affrsy. Sergeant Wetherford
shot and killed a soldier by the name OF
Tinney, in self defence.
Lieut.. Alexander was arrested, and pass
ed through Van Buren,, under guard, on
Saturday last, for Camp Walker. where he
will be tried by Court Martial, and if the
case is as represented to US, there can be but
one opinionras to its result.
