early with the intention Of reaching General Gar

an aide-de-camp Of Garcia, Lieutenant Francisco

Discourteous.

The Unnecessary and marked affront of
fered to Governor Palmer by self.consti
tuted citizens meeting held last Satur-
day night, in totally ignoring the retiring
chief magistrate in making its arrange
ments relative to the inauguration cere-
monies to-day is only equaled by its glar
ing and bold effrontery. Decency, at
least, should have reminded these 'citi-
zens of Springfield that Gov. Palmer has
faithfully and impartialy discharged his
duties that he has been fast friend to
Springfield, her interests and her people.
we take occasion to assure him that not
only the people Of this city, but of the
whole State, honor him as their Governor
and their citizen that they regard his ad-
mlnlstratlOn a. one of the best known in
the history Of our State.
We shall have something more IN saw oF
what seems to us, and 10 every fair mind
ed person, a studied and fragrant insult :
Springfield Register, 1871.
IL seems that the eternal fitness of
things according to the Radical idea. de
manded that Governor Palmer should be
offered some indignity upon his retirement
from office, and the little souls that most
do predominant in Radical circles Mt
Springfield, thereupon decided to ignore
him altogether in and absolutely exclude
him from the inaugural ceremonies of his
successor. Decent men of the Grant par
~, IN this State, may blush to know that
they hold fellowship with individuals so
narrow-minded as to conceive that the fu-
ture success Of their party demands that
propriety be thus outraged in an attempt
to insult one who has served the State as
well and honorably as John NJ, Palmer,
but it is nevertheless true. All such at
tempts to humiliate one so exalted as Gov.
Palmer only serve to lift him higher in
public esteem, while they react upon those
who inspire them and exhibit them in
tnelr true eolors. -QuERcE Herald,

A SALOON QUARREL.


Cards, the Lie, Blows, the Pistol, Escape.
An unfortunate quarrel occurred in
Henry Guldenzopf's saloon, on Illinois
street, next door to Krells variety store,
about six o'clock Wednesday evening. A
party of four young men were having a
quiet game of cards, of which party De-
Witt Ellis, son of James B. Ellis, was one
Among the lookers-On were Walter Had
sell and Charlie Coyne, who got into an
unpleasant dispute, Coyne accusing Hac-
sell of giving some sign to one OF the play
ers and Hadsell denying it. The lie pass
ed between them and Coyne pulled off his
coat and was going for Hadsell when Mr..
Guldenzopf stopped between them to paci-
f. and ouiet them While in this confab
Fills took the part of Coyne and
the lie posed between him and
Hadsell, Guldenzopf keeping between them
and urging them to be quiet-aud while in
this position Ellis struck Hadsell in the
face by reaching over Guldenzopf' shout
der, and squared off to strike him
again, when Hadsell shot him, the bullet
hitting him little to the right and little
below the navel, and passing into his body.
Ellis walked to Bengston's drug store,
across the street, and left word for a sur
geon, and then walked home, distance Of
about two blocks. DR. Truesdale was
soon there, but did not deem it advisable
to probe for the ball He administered
opiates, and the patient rested well To
day, at o'clock, p NJ, when this paper
went to press, he was apparently doing
well-though his case is considered very
critical
Hadsell disappeared Immediately and
had not, at last accounts, been arrested
though vigorous efforts are being made Il
find him We think he made mistake
to run for if the reports concerning the
origin of the affair are correct, nothing
very serious can occur to him. He Is
about p or % years old, tall, light com
/ plexiOn, and bears sears from small poS
on his face He is painter By trade, and
is a married man, though separated from
his wife They have one child. He was
not generally considered a bad or quar-
relsome character
Ellis is Is years old last May, is stone
cutter by occupation, as is his father He
/ is member of the Rock Island Light
Artillery and is one Of the boys
who helped manage the guns at Daven
port last 4th of July. He /,
considered quiet, inofiensive, anG
decent young man, and all regret that hi
or his companions should have allowed
themselves to get into so foolish a quarrel
Both the young men are natives of Thu

that he keeps one of the most quiet saloon
in town, and is, himself, a well known res
