Between FIVE and six o'clock Last evening.
Abncr Rawlings, private in company a, 65th

climbing the fence at the northeast side Of the
enclosure, attempted to cross the line Of the
Eentincls. Corporal Bradford 7. Scott, of
company Z, 9th Vermont, who was on guard
at that point at the time, challenged him dis
tinctly, three times, to shalt ~ but the SOL
dier needless of his warning, KEEP. on his way,
to cross the line. The sentinel fired at him,
with the intention Of wounding him in his
legs; but lie had aimed too high, or the pri.
yatc had "dodged," and the charge took
effect in his body, md Rawlings fell dead.
This sad affair will be properly investigated,
when we will give the result of the cxanlina-
tion. The body Of Mr.. Rawlings will be sent
