THE HOMICIDE.
We have received note from "W. B wa
friend OF Jesse b. wharton, who was shot on the
night before last IN the military prison, denying
the Correctness OF, our statement Of the facts
Of the case al presented in Yesterdays Sts-:
alleging that he did rot previously curse
the sentinel, nor did be refuse 10 obey the
latteT's order not TO lean cut Of the window but
admitting that he denounced Baker for q coward,
and dared him to shoot.
Our statement was made on information Oh
tsined through the invesig alton instituted by the
Military Governor; far more likely 10 be correct
than Information from any other source, we np
prehend.
While we sYmpathize with the family OF Mr
Wharton, and sincerely hope that the party 70
sponsible for killing him may be duly punished,
