Sol der Stabbed.

The Iberville Pioneer says:
Thursday night, the twelfth instant. a
United States soldier, named Lewis NJ.
Warmeth. was stabbed by citizen named
Thomas Vining. at Baton Rouge, while on
guard duty at the garrison. Vining walked
up to the soldier, and said Good evening"
and at the same time struck him in the back
with knife. The soldier tried to bring his
gun to bear on Vining, but Vining grabbed
it. and in the struggle stabbed the soldier a
second time in the left side and then ran
away. but was arrested by the city marshal
and lodged in Jail, where he is awaiting ex-
animation bv the United States commission
er, who has full jurisdiction in the case, as
the assault was committed within the
bounds of the United States garrison or re-
servatiOn.
Vining lately. arrived in Baton Rouge
from the parish of Livingston, and what
caused him to commit such an atrocious act
is unknown.
There is Il prospect nf the soldiers recov.
cry, although he is suffering intensely.
