ilese of affilia:ing with the Typo
graphical Union, an organization
| having for its objects "the main
tenance of a fair scale of wages, re-
lief of distressed members md their
families, care of the sick and proper
burial of the dead" and
Whereas. The proprietors Of the
Call and Bulletin having, BY such
action, struck blow at the most
cherished principles of all labor
unions ; and
Whereas. Necessity demands that

of their organizations therefore
be it
Resolved, That the Miners
Union Of Virginia City extends its
heartfelt sympathy to the locked
out printers in their struggle for
Union principles.
Resolved. Tha. as the Call and
Bulletin have avowed themselves
enemies to Labor Unions, We
pledge ourselver to do all in our
power to lessen their circulation in
this city, and urge sister Unions
throughout this State to do like
wise.
Resolved, That, as Mr.. Pickering.
proprietor of the Morning Call, has
declared that he will suspend his
newspaper before he will cease his
opposition to Union printers, we
will cheerfully assist him in killing
his paper, believing that the sooner
journals opposed to the rights and
interests of the workingmen of the
country die. the better for the whole
community.
Resolved, That each and every
member pledges himself to refrain
from all patrona &c of men who re-
fuse to join with us in stopping the

placement of q rail. Tom Clarke
was on the engine, and as he en-
tered tho Eastern end Of the yard

miles an hour he saw the switch
all right with the target set in po-
sition, but on getting about thirty
yeards from the spot he noticed
that the rail was displaced. the
switch rail being half the thickness
of q rail out of line. He applied
the air brakes Immediately and
set the wheels. This saved the
engine from leaving the track. The
forward trucks struck the end of
main rail and climbed up on it for
about five inches and the force Of
the brakes on the train swung it
back. The cars were brought to q
standstill and the catastrophe avert
ed by his promptness and attention.
The fact WAS Immediately reported
to Roadmaster Anterior, who ex-
amined the spot and found that the
switch had been pried with q crow
bar to draw the rail out of line
without disturbing the switch target.
showing that some one acquainted
with railroads had tried to ditch
the train. A man.was seen tamper-
ing with the switch the night be
fore by man passing in a carriage.

The dry weather of the past few weeks has
been well improved BY the farmers in har-
vesting their crops, and they have their work
in advance of former years by number Of
weeks. Potatoes are yielding fair crop,
with no indications of any rot. The crop of
sweet corn in this town, planted for the can
ming factory at o ,kland, has been considers
bly, injured by the frost and the excessive
drouth. The drouth has been so severe upon
the pastures that stock has to be fed largely
from the barns, and it Is thought that the
abundant hay crop will all be needed by
another spring.-The apple crop in this vi
cinity, except in a few cases, will be very
light. The orchard of the late JOSEPH TAYLOR
is producing good crop, many of the trees
having to be propped up to keep the limbs
from breaking under their heavy load. Isaac
Weaver of this town raised from four bushels
of seed on two acres of ground AZ bushels of
wheat.-Large numbers from here attended
the State Fair at Lew vision last week and they
unite in saying that it was the largest show
ever seen in Maine, and that Lewiston is the
place for the State Fair.-Mr. Williams, the
manufacturer of brick at the Depot, since he
put in his engine, is m king about ~ 600 OF
pressed bricks per day.-The cranberry crop
in this town. of which some years hundreds
of bushels are raised. was about ruined by
the early frosts.-The Golders of Belgrade
Mills are having large quantities of spruce
timber delivered here by the cars, but the
water is low that they can only run their
factory with half of their crew.

FROM WASHINGTON.
IMPORTANT DECISION
OF Secretary FOlger Relating to Pack.
ages and Coverings Of Imported
Merchandise.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 26.
Secretary Folger has just rendered an i'm
portaDs decision with regard to construction
of section seven of the new tariff law relat-
ing to packages and coverings of imported
merchandise.
He holds that the cost or value of outside
coverings into which the goods are finally
put for land or ocean damage is not to be
taken as part of or in addition to the value
Of goods, nor is the value of goods to be con-
sldered as EXCHANGED by reason of that outside
covering having been put about them. The
cost to the manufacturer or Wholesale foreign
dealers of boxes, carbOns or other things
which are put within or upon the outside
goods by him as part of this preparation of
them for exposure to salt is not to be in
quired for as an arbitrary part of the market
value, and that the cost in the exact amount
added to an already ascertained market value
thereof, though that cost may be an element
in the evidence of what is the value of the
goods and may so far be considered. The
dutiable value of the goods is not to be the
market value. which they would have if they
were offered for sale without that prepare
ton Of inner boxes. carbons or other like
things. The dutiable value of goods is the
actual market value or wholesale price
thereof in the condition of finish and prepar-
alton for sale in which they are finally offered
by foreign merchants to negotiating custom
ers and for which they will and do sell them,
though that value or price be EXCHANGED be.
cause Of that finish or preparation, and though
a part of the preparation consists in placing
in or upon or about the goods, boxes, car
bons, paper, cards or other like things.

The Case Of SwoOnback on Trial nj
HOultOn.

HOULToN, Sept &c.
The trial of John Swoonback, charged with
the murder of John Hanson, July last, began
at HoultOn today. Attorney General Cleaves
and County Attorney Allen appeared for the
State, and Powers and Donworth for the pri-
soner. The jury was empanneled, the re-
spondent exercising seven peremptory chal-
lenges and the State three. The case opened
for the State, and the first government wit
ness called was Mrs. Hanson, the wife of the
deceased. She testified that on the morning
of July %, her husband heard that Swoon-
back had torn down the bars at the foot of the
road near Swoonback's house; that Hanson
took his gun, went down and began to put up
the bars that Swoonback came out from his
house with gun; that dispute arose. when
Swoonback raised his gun and shot Hanson;
that Hanson then fred and wounded Swoon-
back. The witness was put to long cross
examination, but her testimony was not ma
terially changed. Amos Davenport was next
called and testified to substantially the same
facts as Mrs Hanson had done. Several 9TH
er witnesses were called who testified tn
threats made by SwOonback to take the life
of Hanson.
At the coming in of the court this after
noon, several witnesses were called, relating
to the case for the State.
The case for the respondent opened BY
claiming that Swoonback acted in self de-
Tense and shot Hanson to save his own life.
Swoonback testified that he did not fire at
Hanson until he (Hanson) had raised his gun
to shoot him.
VIM. Akerly and Mrs. Swoonback, who
were present at the shooting, testified that
Hanson had raised his gun first.
Several physicians were called BY the re-
spondent to show the nature of the wound re-
ceived by Swoonback from Hanson's gun.
Several prominent citizens of Presque Isle
we're called to testify IS to the good character
of .Swoonback.
Testimony was offered to show that sever
al of the government witnesses had made
different statements as to the order in which
the shooting took place.
This closed the testimony for the respond
ent, and the State after submitting some re-
butting testimony, announced its case closed.
hon. Llewellyn Powers will make the closing
argument for the respondent tomorrow morn.
ing, and Attorney General Henry b. Cleaves
for the State. Much interest 10 manifested
in the case and the court house has been
crowded to an uncomfortable degree. Public
sentiment differs ~ to the effect the testiuo-
ny may have under the Law of self defense.
The jury is in charge Of an officer, and not
allowed to converse with the public.
