nounced the sudden and ysterious disappearance OF
Mr.. Samuel Leggett, of the firm of Sloan Leggett,

peers that Mr.. Legsett was of the Directors Of

10 that institution for q large sum Of money,
trumor says 500 ot0, but are crediby informed
that the sum has been considerably overrated Mr..

since the csth utimo. thorough search has been
Instituted by his friends, throughout the City and
vicinity but as yet no clue to his fate or whereabouts
has been found His relatives and friends are now
forced to the belief that he has committed suicide,
from the fact that two letters have come TO light in
which he declared that to be his int atom One Of
these letters was received few days since by Mr..
Elijah +. Purdy In this letter Mr.. Leggett stated
that he Mr.. Purdy had been his best friend, no, ex-
ceptipg his Ieegetts) father. He regretted thai it
was out of his power to pay all he owed to Mr. Purdy
and that before o'clock that evening he Mr.. Leg
get would be no more The other letter wssTe-
ceived BY Mr. Taylor clerk in the Empire Works,
and was scco npaned by package containing Mr..

and breastpin. This letter, too contained deciara-
ton Of his mr. Leggetts intention to put an end 70

Mr. Leggett was young man, l26 years Oh and

INTERESTING DEoIsIoS.-We think we are serv !,
the public in calling attention TO the Court of Com
mon Pleas, in Baltimore, October 1884. The case
WAS one Of more than usual Importance especially to
all who use platform scales, as the decision of the
Court established the fact that in all matters of dis
puie, as to weight, the scales manufactured by
Messrs Fairbanks & Co, of Vermont, are the
standard.
The suit aro.e from discrepancy of weight be-
tween one Of Fairbanks scsles in use by the Bat-
more and Ohio Railroad Company and one Of another
manufacturer.
The case occupied the Court for two days. Judge
Msrha, in delivering his decision stated as the re-
sut of the evidence, that the accuracy of Farb anks
scales was established beyond all question.
