A telegram From Memphis says:— “During the session of a court martial an altercation occurred between Col. Corwyn, of the Tenth Missouri cavalry, and Lt. Col. Bowen, of the same regiment. Corwyn is reported as having struck Bowen, when the latter drew a pistol, shot the former in three places, killing him instantly. There is great excitement among the troops, but no further trouble is apprehended. Gen. Dodge is quite sick.”
