To COMPUTE lNTEHEsr--A correspond ont of the Baltimore Sun communicates the following simple plan for computing inter- est at six per cent per annum for any num- Der of days, which he learned, he says, twelve years ago:
 Divide the number of days by 5ix,and multiply the dollars by the dividend, the re- suit is the interest in decimals, cut of the right-hnnd figure, and you have t in dollars and cents. Thus, what is the interest on 9l00 for twenty-one days2 2l divided by is 5; 100 multiplied by 3 is $50, or 5 cents.-Again: what's the interest on @37e for ninety-three days? 93-G-I51; 578z- i53-5,859, or $5 S59-l0. Let book-keep- CTS try this rule, and they will find that it is no humbug."
