Iies that would attend the location Of one
large park for the entire city, it is pro-
posed that sites for two-if not three

DIFFICULTY AT BLooM,NGToS.-A difficult
ty occurred ut Bloomington, on Wednesday
between Judge Hughes and Judge Buskirk,
growing out Of the examination of some
Regulators" now going on. Hughes is for
the defense and Buskirk for the prosecution.
The latter struck at the former with cane,
which he wartled off, but which HIT him on
the back of the hand. Hughes drew a pistol
and fired at Buskirk, bus some one present
threw up the barrel as he Was in the act OF
firing, and the ball lodged in the ceiling. A
very angry and excited state of feeling pre-
walls at Bloomington regarding the doings Of
the Regulators and their examination.
