DEATH OF A New York INSPECTION.
The New York papers announce the
sudden death of Inspector James Leon
ard, which event took place at his resi-
dence in West Twenty-second street on
Friday afternoon. He was born in
Plattsburgh, n. ", Aug. 10, 1920; was
appointed a member of the Police force
on July IS, 1915, by Mayor VIM. II.
Havemeyer, and was at once detailed to
the Office of Chief of Police, George w.
Matsell, with the rank Of Inspector OF
Hacks and Vehicles of all kinds. He
was here associated with Robert Bowyer
Thomas Sampson, George w. Walline
(l.ow inspector), and many others whose
names have figured in connection with
prominent arrests. In 1S48 Inspector
Leonard was appointed Captain of Pc
lice of the Second Ward. In 1851, OF
the occasion of the Worlds Fair in Lon
don, he was selected with one or tive
others to 60 to London to look afte
American thieves who might be there
In 1857, the Metropolitan Police was or
ganized. Captain Leonard, in common
with many of the officers and member
of the old Municipal Police, decided t
follow the fortunes Of Mayor Wood
and, as a consequence, when the court
decided in favor of the Metropolitan Pc
lice Commissioners, Captain Leonar'
retired to private life. He was too valu
able an officer to lose, however, and il
June, 1858, he was reappOinted Cap
tain on the new force. Inspector Leon
ard was affable and peculiarly polite
although very strict disciplinarian.

MORE RAmRoAD.-The long pond
ing quarrel between the Pennsylvania
Railroad, Allegheny Valley, and the
Winslow Collicry, with reference to
the building of a road from the mouth
Of Mahoning creek, on the Allegheny
river, to the mouth of Benefits
Branch, on the Philadelphia & Erie
Railroad, has at length been settled.
and the road will be speedily made.
1t will pass across the western end of
this county, through Brady, Union
and Huston townships, and will have
the lowest grade Of any railroad run
ming between the Eastern and West.
ern States, The grade will not exceed
26 feet while the lowest grade on any
OF the roads now made is 70 feet.
The only point not settled with
reference to this road, is whether il
shall enter our county by tho Mahon-
ing valley route or the Red Bank.
We are somewhat familiar with both
these valleys, and are decidedly in
favor of the Mahoning route, as the
most feasible, because it is the most
direct and the lowest grade. Besides,
the Sandy Lick coal fields can be
reached by this as well as by the other
route a glance at any State map
will establish this fact.

tive. Why was it not given to com
petent soldier if they intend TO com
pensate him as they agreed, for the
dangers and hardships he passed
through? The promise was but a
fraud TO get their votes. When Pres.
ldent johnson attempted to give the
soldier position, the Tenure -of.Ofice
bill was enacted, and his design frus-
trated. And yet many soldiers have
been led by partisan spirit to abuse
him, and to vote for party that IN
tends to cheat soldiers, and TO keep
the Offices within a charmed circle.
What sympathy has Mr. Scofeld for
soldiery He has demonstrated that
he has none; and yet he has quite as
much as any who are dispensing Fed
cral patronage under this administra-
tion. Republican love for the soldier
is fraud and a cheat, just as much
as their love for the negro is. They
have no more respect for soldier
than for negro, unless he is a Major
General, and none for either. They
desire the votes of both, and hence
their pretcnsions of love, but despise
them in fact. We talk from the
records, and notfrom mythical visions.
