Murder of Lieut A. H. Vaughn.
--A correspondent of the Nashville Republican, writing from Cumberland Gap, January 1st, makes the following statement of the murder of Lieut. A. H. Vaughn, of Col. Rains's regiment, now stationed at that place:
Lieut. A. H. Vaughn, of Captain Van Weems's company, Col. Rains' regiment, was last night brutally murdered near Tazewell, by five men of Brazelton's battalion of cavalry.
Lieut. V. was stationed with a detachment of men near Tazewell, to preserve order in that town.
These men, whose names are Taylor, Ivey, Crupper, Carter and Holmes, were drunk and disorderly, and the Lieutenant arrested one of them, when the others rescued him and killed the Lieutenant in old blood.
The circumstances are peculiarly aggravated, Lieutenant Vaughn was one of the finest officers in the army, a thoroughly accomplished gentleman, and a lawyer of good promise.
The murderers are arrested, and will be tried by a court martial.
