From Chicago.

Chicago, Ill.,, May .. The Press of this
city generally express surprise at the dis
charge by the Grand Jury yesterday, of
7. A. Leonard, accused of killing his brother
in-law, DIR. Seaman, regarding the verdict as
in excess of their legitemate authority, and
designed to anticipate the action of trial by
jury. The Republican says that in this case
the Grand Jury has ursurped the functions of
the court and the petit jury, without the
power which possess to make of it final dis
position. The appearances are that of thing
hastily hushed up.
