Homicide.
--On Monday morning, early, says a Georgia exchange, a soldier named Williford, only seventeen years old, from Glasscock county, shot and killed another named Wilson, at Big Shanty.
It appears that Wilson attempted to pass the lines where Williford was on duty, and disregarded Williford when he was balled, whereupon he fired and killed him almost instantly.
