Dusehbcrry, HHAT THE POTTER INVESTIGATION" HAS ACCOMPLISHED. The Potter investigation is not near its end, but the noliday recess of the committee affords a fair op portunity to consider what it has al ready accomplished. Mr. Sherman has been entangled in a net of circumstantial evidence, to sav nothing of that which is di rect, but disputed, from which extri cation seems impossible ; and Mr. Stanley Matthews is buried beyond resurrection under the weight of his own letters. It is no light matter for the pur poses of investigation that the Dem ocrats have been able to show the character of the men who have been managers of tbe Republican party in the south. It was known that there were villians among them, and now, so far as Louisiana is concerned, the theoiy that there were any excep tions has been well nigh disproved. The Jenkses, Webers, Andersons, Pitkins, Pinkstons, and the rest tell their own stories, and no more is needed to disclose their depravity. There can be no more Striking illus tration of the straits of Republican partisans than bhe fact that whether these people testify for or against them they are obliged to admit their knavisbness. The more an Ander son or a Weber is denounced, the stronger is the indictment of the Republican party, of which they have been the evangelists. Ceitain ly it is an anomaly ki polities that if you flog a Democratic witness you cripple a Republican statesman. At last the true inwardness of the southern political situation of 1876 is understood by the whole country, and although the picture may be painted a good deal blacker, as well It might be, in truth, it cannot be more effective. No candid man, Re publican or Democrat, will now de ny that the States of Florida, and Louisiana tcere wrongfully counted for Hayes in pursuance of a conspira cy originating with certain members of the National Republican Corwnit- Ue. executed by Returning Boards un der the '■ depuration of visiting states- Men, and under the protection of the army of the United States. An investigation which has ac complished this much toward elicit ing the truth cannot be said to have bom begun in vain.— Philadelphia Tmies. For the Journal. BELLETONTJC, Julv 15th. 1878. The plarioutfourth, with its music and fire-works lias passed, and leaves our town again to the quiet husiness pursuits of its staid inhabitants, and the manipulations of politicians. Except "second crop potato bugs." politicians are most numerous. Every one almost wants an office, or has a friend who would like to serve the dear peo- Ble4n some capacity, of course, not because ley want office, but because the people want them. This mania for office has, to say the least, become a nuisance. Most every other man you meet is a candidate and immediately commences to press his claims for the par ticular nomination he may be seeking. One man has been an old war horse ; another has friends who have grown gray in the ser vice of his party : while a third is young yet but his gratid father, his father and all his relatives iias constantly voted the right ttck aand so on adfinttvum. These things are right and proper, and no doubt most of these men would make good officials, but Unfortunately far them there are not enough offices to reaeh jound and give them each a ■slice, and so some must be disappointed. No -ddubt the countj offices would be as well filled if there were a great many less candi dates. There would certainly be less an moyance to these seeking office as well as to jthe people of the county ; but every <one - will Insist that he is the proper man and will hot gtve way. \ .The system of going over the county "ftor -fng" people is not only an an noysuioe but it is certainly injurious to the interests of the party. Every .candidate has something to fay about his competitor, pnd by the time (tie convention meets the feeling thus cre ated is so bitter that the successful candi dates will receive but a lukewarm support from these with whom the nominations were contested, and in some cases even re ceive the direct opposition of beaten candi dates ; especially nas this been so wlien •Yer■ we had to fill all the county offices, as - Whe the case this falL AJI tins would be •woidedL if there were not so many aspirants. .Candidates who have theinterests of the iP£rty at heart, and who are anxious to have their oym interests advanced, should guard ntt?**"" I* l every way possible. If they IPtr 0 and B ® r "P the same bitter feeiliig that has heretofore existed between the different factions} the county ticket will be in great danger of being defeated. Espi k XiaQs aoes this apply to Sheriff, Prothonota - ry and Treasurer. The Republicans are al ready looking to a fusion with the Nationals, ter which they expect to capture part of the offices, and unless the Democratic candi dates pursue a different course from what they are doing now, this Republican scheme will lie paitiaTlv, if not entirely successful.

The Beliefonte Republican tl inks tlieie is a growing sentiment among Republicans to nominate General Grant in 1880. Let the sentiment continue to grow bv all means. Let every whis key ringster, salary-grabber, every political thief, scoundrel and rascal chime in and they may succeed to nominate him ; but honest people, whether Republicans or Democrats, have enough and over enough of Grantism. Ulyssus will never have a third term. SWEARING. —lf you are some times tempted to indulge in the low, vulgar habit of swearing, think first of the drvine law which says, "Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain." If that is not sufficient to restrain you, the civil law might be if it were oftener en forced : "If any person of the age of six teen or upwards shall profanely curse or swear by the name of God, Jesus Christ, or the Holy Ghost, any person so offending, being thereof convicted,, shall forfeit and pay the sum of sixty seven cents for every such profane curse or oath, etc., and further, any person of the age of sixteen years and upwards who shall curse or swear by any other names or tiring, shall forfeit to pay the sum of forty cents for every such curse or oath ; and for any neglect to pay, he oi she shall be committed to the house of correction of the proper county, not exceeding twen ty-four hoius." To further this end the Republicans have secured prominent and vounß, working members of their party In all the Democra tic townships of Pcnns and Nlttany Valleys, totadvocste the Greenback-National faith, and thereby Indnce Democrats to Join the Nationals. This will not only enable the Republicans to carry the proposed fusion county ticket, hut every Democrat thus cap tured will be a loss of one vote on the stato ticket, while every Republican Green hacker will see to It that he votes the Republican ticket straight. Thi* Plan tea* hatched w thlf town by leading Republican* and a few leading Rational *, or rather—would IH leaders, and unless the Democrats arc on the lookout serious Inroads will thus be upon the Democratic majority in the county at our next election. This state of affairs makes it necessary for the Democrats to commence to fight the com mon enemy, and rrot quarrel and light among themselves, xn hoc est and earnest contest for the different nominations can not do any Injury; but we must not forget In our canvassing lor nominations, that a nom ination may not be emiivalent to an elec tion, as formerly. What Is needed uow Is less zeal In trying to get this or that candi date nominated, and a little more -work to strengthen our lines for the election. What sense is there In nominating a ticket when we at th e same time dig the grave to bury it In at the election. Candidates and their friends are particularly interested4n guard ing against tills, and unless they do. their time and trouble may be spent in vain, even If thev should be nominated. First see to it that the ranks are unbroken, ami every man ready to do his duty, then select leaders-that will 6e satisfactory to those ready to do battle. •. . . ■ ■ ■ Preliminary steps, we are inform ed, have been taken to contest the will of our late deceased townsman, Wm.

Dally Graphic.] An invention all frugal wives will appre ciate—in fact, an article that even rivals the sewing machine in usefulness—is now on exhibition at the Broadway store of the Wilson Sewing Machine Company. In this city ; yet It is so wonderfully simple that it can scarcely be classed as an in vention, and a wonder to everybody that it was not discovered years ago. Tne in vention consists of a very simple little at tachment of the Wilson shuttle sewing machine for darning all kinds of rips, worn-out places, eet_, in clothing, tabic and bedlfuou, stockings, underwear etc , in tlie same manner that It is done by hand, und leaves the repaired part scarce-' ly discernible. The operator of the sew ing machine cun darn a large-sized hole in a bed sheet or table cloth almost in stantaneously. It is to lie regretted, however, that tills wonderful Invention is patented and owned by the Wilson Sew ing Machine Company, of Chicago, 111., who will not permit ;lts use except with one of its muke o/sewing machines, which' the Company's manager states, is furuLsli ed each of the Wilson shutt sewing ma-' chine .without, extra price.
