FINANCES.

The papers are busy some oi them again discussing State Fi- nances and making suggestions as to the proper thing for the next Leg islature to do in the premises. Here's our idea: Adopt the Moffat register-this will be equal to rev cnue of $200,000 per year; re enact the dog law, this will take up $300,- GOO of the floating debt; raise the state scrip tax to mills and absorb the outstanding scrip as fast as pes sible; cut down the expenses of the State government, by reducing the pay of members of the legislature and by having sessions only every four years; declare and announce to the world in plain and unequivocal terms by constitutional amendment that we will never recognize the fraudulent claims against us; and when all this is done we believe the State can raise a sinking fund sufii- cient to commence paying our honest debts.

FIRE AT SEARCY.

From the following letter to us VIC learn of a disastrous confiagration al Searcy on Sunday morning last, by which much valuable property was destroyed. The. letter is as follows:
 SEARcY, Ark, June 9, 1878.
 Editor DEMOCRAT: The most de structive fire Searcv ever knew broke out this morning at one o'clock. F houses were burned, including Greer's, Hicks Lightle < Co.'S, two of the largest stores in town, one other dry goods store, two family grocery stores, and two saloons. Some of the buildings were insured, but it is i'm possible to ascertain the amount of insurance or the loss. Immense ex- citement prevails, preventing church services. The fire was evidently the work of an incendiary. It started in Greer's store, two-story brick, which was nearly half consumed be- fore discovered. Hurriedly,

 ASHLEY, WASHINGTON Co.,, ILL.,l
 Jan. Il, 1878. MR. H. R. STEVENS :--
 DEAR SIR,--This is to certify that I had been suffering from Rose Cancer on my right breast, which grew very rapidly, and all my friends had given me up to die, when l heard of your medicine, Vegetine, recommended for Cancer and Cancerous Humors. commenced to take it, and soon found myself beginning to feel better, my health and spirits both felt the benign influence which it exerted, and in q few months from the time l commenced the use of the Vegctine, the Cancer came out almost bodily.
 CARRIE DEFORREST. I certify that 1 am personally ac- quainted with Mrs. DeForrest, and consider her one of our very best women. DIR. $. II. FLOWERS. ALL DISEASES OF THE BLooD.--If vegetine will relieve pain,, eleause, purify, and cure such diseases, restor- ing the patient to perfect health after trying different physicians, many rem edies, suffering for years, is it not con- elusive proof, If you are sufferer, you can be cured? Why is this medicine performing such great cures? It works in the blood, in the circulating fluid. It can truly be called the Great Blood Purifier. The great source of disease originates in the blood; and no medi- cine that does not act directly upon it, to purify and renovate, has any just claim upon public attention.

THE POTTER INVESTIGA.
 TION.

The Washington Post speaking ing of the Potter Investigating Com mittee says:
 eff Mir. Anderson has told the truth, John Sherman must step down and out from the exalted office of Secretary of the Treasury, con. victed of one of the basest and most groveling of felonies, to-wit Sub. ornation of perjury and forgery; and he may consider himself lucky if he is not also compelled to step down from the Treasury to the pen itentiary. Senator Stanley Matth- ews must go into retirement at the close, if not before the close of his term, covered with shame as self convicted accessory and conspirator against the laws and institutions of the people, whose confidence he can never hope to regain. These are among the direct consequences of Mir. Anderson's testimony, from which, passing to the indirect con sequences, we observe that if privity of Mir. Hayes to the crime of Sher- man and the misdemeanor of Matth. ews can be established by subse- quent testimony, grounds of i'm pcachment will be formed against the highest officer in the land"
 After carefully analyzing Andcr- son's testimony, the Post sums up the points made as follows:
 "First-that the votes as they came out of the ballot-boxes in the two parishes of East and West Fe- linicia elected the Democratic elect ors for President and Vice President.
 "Second-TIat in order to pro dnce an apparent election of the Re publican electors for President and Vice President, it was necessary tor the Returning Board to throw out tho votes or alter the election returns from those parishes.
 "Third-That in order to afford color or pretext for such action on the part of the Returning Board. it was necessary for himself and D. A. Weber, as parish supervisors of reg istration, to sign or permit other persons to forge in their names, what are known to Louisiana law as protests. !"
