FOR THE SENTINEL.

Friend F. K. deserves praise for the solu-
tons and rule published in the Sentinel No.
81. Probably the following rule would have
proved more convenient. To solve questions
arranged like mine found in the Seullnel No.
Az, divide the product of the several denom-
lnators by the product of the several denomina-
tors; multiply the qnotient into the number
obtained, as the number II 81 2076 was. then
extract the roo. indicated by the number of
fractional terms less one. which proves that my
question required the cube root, as was sue
cesstully used by P. r. In experimenting
with fgures,f discovered the above rule. just
as The ancient and modern experimenters dis
covered many things. q might say Of truth,
nearly every thing that has been discovered by
chance or accident and all of which have been
published for the benefit and amusement of past
and rising generations. II. n. l..

the spirit of free and patriotic people, prompt to resist

these communications specimens of the rest We re-
