AKSWKBS TO lOKBESFOXPESTS. E. H. Y-, Spurgeon P. O., Ind.—A note la. given tor 968.68 on April 14, 18T7; paid on the note, September, 18, 1877, |25 ;compound interest at 10 per cent, front date to Not. 11, 1879 What interest on $8 paid orer and above what should have been paid, front April 14,1877, to November 11, 1879? • , It I understand the case, it ia that the note should have been drawn for $60.68 instead of for 968 68. After a careful computation 1 find that, as drawn, there was* remaining doe November 11,1879,957.57. But if the note had been for 96068, the amount remaining due Nov. 11, ’73, would have been 947,33- Tbf difference is 910 27. If the |3 be taken front this latter sum, the interest is seen to be 92.27. *»• W. D. McSwan*. Strayed, ' From the premises of the under* signed, in Jefferson township.

1880 the 1880 Indiana Weekly Stale Sentinel. IMPROVED AND ENLARGED *1.00 rsa. fHB PAPER FOR TUB PEOPLE. msPECTrs roK ts«o. the coming presidential year premise* to be the most eventful and thrilling is a politic*1 . tense that we hnve ever wicueswd, and will determine questions of the most vital importance to every citixen of the State and Nation. It i* not improbable—indeed it in almost certain—that upon the determination of them questions, wil t depend the perpetuity of onr present system tree government. These questions will be thoroughly th-emwed during the present session of Congress. The Sentinel has arranged lor a first-class experienced, special correspondent at Washington and in addition to giving a true account of ail the general proceedings in that body will give leading speeches of our most 'prominent the statesmen, and without depriving our patrons of the usual amount of reading matter. The Sentinel w ill hereafter contain a supplement, making r ain all Sixty Codtiimuu of composition. ^ le a word, it is the purpose of The dentiurh as „ ,, . purpose of The dentiuri, as a stead.ast watchman ot public intelligence, a do its whole duty iu affording information to its subscribers upon all these topics of such vast moment. As in *78 so in *80 Indiana will be called upon to take a first position in the front of the great contest, and upon Urn success or failure of (ha ” " Stale will great aud gallant Democracy of onr S depend the fate of issues the moot p_ __ ever submitted to the arbitrament of a free j pie. IV e shall also specially call attention, iron day to day, as occasion may require, to an s«. lireiy Ssw Phase in the politics ol our -stats —we mean the forced emigration ior temporary partisan purposes of pauper negroes from Urn South into Indiana. The managers and leaden of the Republican party, in our State and at » asiungton, are now engaged in this nefarious work, and are attempting by every meana in their power to promote its advancement. They have tailed, utterly failed, to convince oar pete pie of the correctness of their political principles, by reason or argument; tneir appeals to hatred amt prejudice have fallen harmless; their lavish and corrupt expenditures of pnbltr and private moneys ha vs proved wholly futile. They propose now by an African invasion of worm than a vandal horde of beggars end mendicants to override the voice of Wfe people of the State, and to drown the Democratic majority. Tha last resort, the forlorn hope, the assaulting party, the picket lessiHag corps of Republicanism m Indians, is thus made up—not from the Hunters, Harrisons, Heilmans or Shackelford* of the State; not from the intelligence or ability fiiul uutee Ran* is m,s.mrnsd __.sl__ mportation are made use of to deatroythe ta»» feated faction. The sleepless Sentinel, upon the heights ot popular rights and popular dignitv. predicts that ibis movement will also be a failure. With respect to this before unheard ot method of manufacturing party majorities in a state.w« shall at all times give tho latest and most reliable intelligence. The American Democracy, the Federal Union, the rights of the Pefiale amt the States, one tutu inseparable—now and forever. The merits ot the Sentinel as a general newspaper &rs so well known among the farmers ot this State, especially those ot the Democratic persuasion, that commendation of it is deemed superfluous. We will add, however, that tha management has arranged and fully determined that no paper shall furnish so great practical value to its patrons for the money. In its news, its editorials, its literary and miscellany—iu a, word, in its general reading it shall not he surpassed by any paper circulated in the State. It will be particularly adapted to the family circle. We do not believe that any reading thinking man in the State ran afford to do without the Weekly Sentinel at the, small cast at which it ia furnished. v

I Every subscriber of the Weekly State Seutinal at$lj£&per year, will receive a copy of The Sentinel’* very able law treatise, by James B. Met’rellis, Esq., entitled THE LAW QF THE FARM.
