SHOOTING AFFAIR. - A man named
John Green was before the Mayor, yesterday, charged with shooting another, named
Wm. Jinkins. The examination was postponed until tomorrow. We did not learn any
of the circumstances of the affair. The parties are both soldiers. Jinkins’ left
thigh was broken by the shot, and he was conveyed to the Louisiana Hospital,
where he now lies under treatment, with no prospect of getting out under four
weeks.
