Rules for Calculating Inter

Rules for Calculating Interest.
A correspondent OF the Richmond
Dispa:ch says:
''In talking with gentlman on the
above subject in reference to a rule
which had been published, l observed
that this rule, though arbitrary, seemed
to be a rapid method of calculating. lie
thereupon mentioned a rule which,
though not original with him self, he was
accustomed to use, viz: multiply the
amount, rate per cent, and time reduced
together, and divide the product by thir-
ty-six, and then 10y marking off the
three (3) right hand figures We will have
the interest in dollars or cents, Having
enlarged the rule find that il will hold
true for any length of timO te run 1t is
not arbitrary, but based upon strictly
mathematical principles. There are ar
bitrary rules which do bold true ia all
cases as evidenced by comparing results
in one case with results in another; but
this rule, for all rates and for any Period
of time, is mathema tically demonstrated
az follows: Ii We take an amoant, say
800, and wish to find the interest at
six per cent for two years, nine months
and twenty days, by multiplying the
amount by the rate of the product in
c'nts will be the interest on the amount
at he given rate for one year. Then d.
vidIng by 800 (being the number of bus
mess days in year, quotIent will be the
interest on the amount at the given rate
for one day. The interest for one day
multiplied by the number of days (two
years, nine months and twenty days
l,0IO days. gives the interest for the en-
tire time, which, ia this case, is Gle So
Thus the rule is strictly mathematical,
and ia not only true for any one rate,
but equally true for all rates, whether
five per cent, seven per cent, or any per
cent. Now, for the sake of abbreViation,
the cipher eliminated from the diVisor
800, hence it becomes sc. But to make
up for the cipher eliminated in the divis-
ion we POINT off one more more figure in
the quotient making three pointed off
in all Hence we have the simple rule;
Multiply together amount, gate per cent
and time reduced to thirty days, and di-
vide the product by Sc. Then pointing
off the three right hand figures we have
the interest in dollars, cents and mills.

Montgomery Blair.
Oar Washington Correspondent ]

Oar Washington Correspondent ]
Montgomery Blair has created a very
perceptible stiC in political circles IN
Washington by the publication of t.
ter IN favor of TiideR. The fact that
Mr. Blair is not Tilden man from per
sonal preference, but from what he con
ceiVes to be party necessity, gives more
weight to his views than they would 9th
erwise have. One thing is noticeable in
connection with this subject; there is a
growing disposition to consider the in
terest of the party as a unit, rateer thar
the interest of any one section or frac-
ton. The man who can carry the most
States will be the nominee, if these wis e
counsels prevail; and, whoever he may
be, Hendricks, Thurman, BayaPd, Til.
den, Davis or Parker, he Will receive the
united support of q party organized for
success, and not to be defeated by inter.
nal dissention. And to insure success
beyond chance of failure, he must be
the man who can draw the largest sup
Eort from the ranks of the enemy. MIR
Blair, who was q member of Lincoln s
Cabinet, says that Tildeu is the man,
and offers a strong argument to prove it.
There are men here to-day, bitterly op-
posed to Tilden, because of his attitude
on the money question; but | believe,
from the tone remuneration here during
the past few days, that there is deter
mination to do nothing that will imperil
our success in the coming election.

THE OLD WING PARTY.
Judge David Davis the Candidate
CT tho ReViv alists.

Washington Cor n. Y. Herald.
Within the past week the Southern
Democrats have discussed very freely a
proposition to urge the nomination at
St Louis of Judge DAWN Davis, aud the
strength of the movement In favor of
Judge Davis has greatly surprised South
eru men themselves. To understand
this matter it ought to be remembered
that with the reconstruction of the South
ern States and the restoration of the
franchise to its voting population, the old
Whig element, which fused with the
Democracy just before the war, and re-
manned identified with it in opposition to
the Republican party during the recon
struction, is disposed to break up this
alliance of expediency and re-enter the
political Geld in its oil shape. This
Whig revival is a parallel with the Cham
berlain movement among the Southern
Republicans, and has already suggested
the question whether the Republican
boilers and the Wings may not unite to
form the expected third party. Now,
Judge David Dsvis was an old line Wing
and although a Republican now is
thought to enjoy the society of his pres
emit associates no more than do the
southern Wings the alliance with the
Democrats. As the candidate Of the st
Louis convention he would. in the esti
nation of the Southern Wings, draw Of
the Republicans the old Wing vote of
the North and get the united vote of the
South, rendering his election certainty
Whatever may be the event Of the discus-
sion, there is no Disgusting the Progress
Of tie Wing movement, which may yet
take up and carry out the enterprise
tried by the Liberals at incinnati.
