A PROPER INoUmY.-Since the intro.

duce the ten excluded States to Terrific.
ries, the inquiry has naturally arisen
What is to become of the legitimate debts
of these States? Is the General Govern.
ment to assume them, or is the idea o.
Reputation to be encouraged? Virginia,
for instance, has q funded debt of SAB
100000. Ifthe State is declared defunct

If We discover that a lawsuit is or has

At an assemblage of few friends,

SIMPLE METHOD OF COMPUTING In
TEREsT.-A new method of comput
ing interest on any number of dollars
at SIX per cent. appears very simple.
Multiply any given number of dol
lars by the number of days Of inter
est required, and divide by sixty; the
result is the true interest of such
sum, for such numberof days at six
per cent in cents. This rule is so
simple and so true, that every bank
er, broker, merchant or clerk, should
post it up for reference or use
There being No such thing as frac-
ton in it, there is scarcely any Ia
olilty to err or mistake. BY no 9TH
er mathematical process can the de-
sired information be obtained with so
few figures.

County Supsrintsndents.

| Gov. Cox in his last message. in
referring to the deficiency in the re-
ports Of the schools in certain parts
Of the State, recommends the ap-
peintment Of County Superinten-
dents. whose duties shall consist in
giving general efficiency to the Com
mon School system, and in cellec-
ting necessary statistics. Such an
arrangement, with an active, ener
getic man, thorough practical
teacher In the position, would with
out doubt be productive of good
results. Such an officer, by estab
fishing regular plan of visitation to
the different schools throughout the
county, could, by his presence en-
courage the scholars, by his advice
direct the teachers in such a manner
that their labors in the future would
far exceed those of the past.
An educated man, a practical
teacher, with some business kuowl-
edge, to earnestly engage in the
work OF scrutinizing and improving
the schools of the county, would find
enough to occupy his whele atten-
ton, and tax his skill; and if faithful
IN his examinations and advice.
there can be no doubt the work of
educating the children would be
more thoroughly done than it is new.
he could wake up a new interest
among the teachers, and by cempari-
son OF one school with another.
keep alive and active the feeling of
great responsibility which is so es.
sentlal in dealing with children
with such an officer, the labors and
duties OF the school trustees would
not, perhaps, be much lessened. but
their work would be systematized.
their plans better and more effective.
and their services made much more
valuable. We trust that suitable ap-
preparations will be made in our own
and other counties, to allow a trial
OF the experiment. Let none but
the best men be appointed, for other.

benefit. A proper consideration of
this subject by the citizens of the
county, and the adoption of suitable
plans, would no doubt be acceptable
