A Shooting affair. --We learn from Capt. M. P. Dent, of the steamer Dew Drop, that a difficulty occurred at Felix Stewart's place on Yazoo river last Monday, between two men by the name of Collier and Brown, in which the latter was stabbed with a knife and killed by the former. A third party by the name of Moore, ordered Collier to give himself up, but refusing, he was shot in the breast with a load of buckshot, which not proving fatal, he was shot in the head with a rifle ball.
