Washinotoh, Feb. 4. - Assistant
retary Fairchild has written to the col
lector of customs at New York in regard
to the classification of leaf tobacco, as it
is understood that the practice at that
port is not in strict couformity with the
department's ruling of May 1, 1884
The collector is instructed as follows in
regard to the classification of such to
bacco: "Different bales and packages
which as admitted by all parties con
tain two different kinds or qualities of
the tobacco of the wrapper class, should
be broken up and each different quan
tity of each class separated for the pur
pose of classification, so that the portion
consisting of the "wrapper"" class, of
which 85 per cent is of the requisite size
and fineness for wrappers; and of which
more than : one hundred loaves are re
quired to ; weigh a pound, should be.
subject to a duty ; of seveuty
five cents per pound and the other
portion, which does not come up to that
standard, should I e suljeet to a duty of
35 cents per; pound, l'he collector h
further instr ucted to require at least one
bale in ten of every invoice to be thor
oughly examined, and if the tobacco sub
ject to the two different rates of duty be
found therein, to ascertain the quantity
of each by inspection, if possible, and if
then by an actual assorting of "hands,"
the proportion of each sort so ascertained
is to determine the proportionate parts
of the whole invoice, for the purpose of
classification. Incase importers object
to the opening and actual examination
of such representative bales, the collec
tor is authorised to assume th-at the
whole auantitv is wranner leaf tobacco
of the class psytug the ; highest rate ol
duty." --? i , , .. -

company Kebiuary 1 did not brig their

no concei&ioua from the company and
their only ri-asou for goioon strik is
that the agreement with its drivers
and conductors had uot been earried out.
The drivers, conductors aud stablemen
all went out together and the horses
were left in the stables without any one
to look atter them. No one reported
for work this morning. The board of
directors bad a short session today, at
which superintendent Newell laid be
fore them the demands of the men. The
directors voted to concede the demands
made, and superintendent Newell was
instructed to notify the strikers tbat
within a week the schedule would be
arranged iu accordance with their wishes.
recisely the same state of affairs as is
here described prevailed on the Sixth

in reference to the recent killing of

It can be shown to the satisfaction of
any Congressional committee that trade
haSbeen constantly kept up by the Mex
icans with the hostile Apaches, while
every obstacle has been put in the path
of American troops sent into Mexico in
nursuit of the renegades. Wherever i
wss possible offioers Wert anvsted and
thrown into prison. Among thoBe who
were thus incarcerated Lieut. Mc-
Dooald, Fourth cavalry, and Lieu. El

kept under guard until: the approach of
large forces of American troops fright
ened the; Mexicans into, liberating them.

State vs. McNeill. ; ' .
1 The endorsement, on the' back of
an indictment, "a true bill." by the fore
man, raises a .preaquaption that every
member of the grand jury concurred, in
the finding of the bill, j Such presumn-
) tion may, however, be rebutted. '
. 2 If a defendant wishes to take ad
vantage of the fact that less than twelve
grand jurors concurred in finding tbe
bill by which he is charged; he must
bring forward such matter by a plea in
abatement, and prove the truth' of his
plea by evidence. : f n
J Where the defendant is charged in
four separate' indictments with' larceny,
the court may treat them as if the sev
eral offences charged ha!d been embraced
in one indictment, containing different
counts. Such consolidation, however,
should only be allowed; in cases- where
tbe presiding judge is satisfied that the
ends of justice require, it, and tbe so-
ncitor snouid be torcedto elect on wbicb
bill he asks for a conviction before the
defendant is required to give" his evi
dence. . ' ; . '
'4. In such case, it seems, that the de
fendant is allowed the same number of
peremptory challenges to the jury as if
he had been tried separately; on each
bill.
5. - When different felonies of the same
nature are embraced in different counts
in the same bill, the presiding judge
mav. in hia dincretion either n no h tho
bill or compel the solicitor to elect on
which count he will proceed. K;
o. A second indictment for the same
offence is, in effect, a new count to the
first indictment. ; v i ;
7. When the solicitor elects; to pro
ceed on one count in an indictment, it is
equivalent to a verdict of not guilty ion
tbe otber counts. nj s; . 1 ;
8. Where the judge in his charge to
the jury does not draw any inference of
fact himself or direct them to do so, but
only points out the evidence tq them,
leaving them to draw their own infer
ences, the charge is not objectionable.

when you demand a Benson's Capcino of
a diuggist, to expect to receive ouc.
Yet there are, we regret to say, a tew
druggists of the Cheap John variety
who will try to persuade you to accept
some worthless substitute with a similar
sounding name, such : asi ; 'C;ipi
cio," "Capsicum' i "Capucih' ?'Cap-
sicine, etc., prefixed sometimes with
the name '4Burnon' or "teuton.
Cheap John . will offer ne of tlese
wretched imitations for sail tne price
of the genuine, as he can well afford to
do, its real value being nothing, and its
cost but little more. Benson's are. the
