Becaufe moving the Point of Separation ftill one Place nearer to the Left-Hand, multiplies any Decimal by 10, 100. 1000, £S?c. as is ihewn under Decimals. And thus Tables of daily Intereft may be made at plcafure. The Keafon of the Stars above fet to fome of the Num- bers, is to ftiew, that in the Contraction of a Decimal Traction to fewer Places, it is proper to add one to the lafi Figure retained, when the next Figure to it, which is omitted, exceeded 5.

To finim this Account of Intereft, wc /hall here fub- join the ingenious Mr. Barton's new and univerfal Method of Simple Intereft, correctly, 'concifely, and eafily find- ing the Intereft of any Sum, for any Number of Days, at any Rate per Cent, by one General Rule.

EXPLICATION.

In Example 1. the principal Time and Rate multiplied one into another, make9io55, by which I multiply the Radix thus ; becaufe 9 is in the * 5th Place, with my Left-hand I hold a Quill's Point in * I ?" t l3V*' the* 5 th Place in the Radix ; then I mul- lm m n,k„a tiply by the faid 9, beginning five Figures f™» K 'S U " (more or lefs) to the right of the Quill, ^*'," ■.'""" and when 1 come to the fourth Figure, on "" "'"' the right of the Quill, I fet its ProduS down, and all the reft onwards, obferving when I come to the faid ;th Place to make the [.] and the Produfl is 2.4*57 : Then I re- move the Quill into the fourth Place of the Radix (be- caufe t ftands there in the whole Number) and multi- ply by 1 (ever obferving puncr ually the lalt Rulej and theProdufl is.0273 i 'ben o in the third place makes nothing, for 5 in the fecond place (putting the Quill there) the Produais.0013 : and for 5 in the firit Place the Pro- duft is .cooi : (placing them ever in the Order you fee) I add them together (never fetting but three Decimals down) and find their Sum 2.494, and its Value thus.

If any thing is to the left of the [.] it's Pounds (/. 2) the firft Figure to the right of the [.] doubled is Shil- lings (8 s) : from the fecond Figure take 5 if you can (if you cannot its whole is Tens) and make the Shillings one more (9): the Remainder (4) in the fecond place, is Tens, which added to the third (as Units) is Farthings (44 Farthings) : for every 20 in that put away 1 (44 Far- things put away 2 is 42 Farthings) : the Remainder brought into Pence (torff) compleats the Anfwer (/. 2. S-i°(.)

ContraBion.J A Cypher or Cyphers (having no Figure Jn r? R ' sht J ma y be cancelled ([ have noted them with =.Dafh) multiplying the real Figures one into another ; but obfervc that the Figures by which you ate to multi- ply the Radix, are to be ufed as if every cancelled Cy- pher flood before them. In Example 2. the 3905 is ufed like and in reality is 59050. In Example 3. five o's are cancelled, therefore I ufe 12 lilce 1200000, putting the Quill for the 2 in the 5th Place in the Radix, and, for brevity's-fake, multiply by 12 ot once.

Any annual Sum given, to find what that is per Day ; ever imagine two o's putto the Right of it, then multiply the Radix by it, and it's done.

Remark.] (i.J If Cyphers be added to the Numeratof of the Vulgar Fraaion, and that Dividend be divided by the Denominator, the Radix may be increafed to any Number of Places.

(2.) If the Radix be multiplied by 3, 4, 5, f, &c. it will be a Radix for 3, 4, 5, 5, S?r. per cent, and fave the trouble of always multiplying by the Rate.

asoi thai i£c. As -the greatett part of the ExprefTions uied on thefe occafions, are taken from Nature alone ; the real lmerjeBioxs in moft Languages are Monofyllables. And as all Nations agree in thofe natural Paflions, fo do they agree in the Signs and Indications of them; as of Love, Mirth, &c. Some deny the Interjettions to be Words, or any part of Speech, and make them mere na- tutal Signs of the Motions or Paflions of the Mind, ex- prefs'd by thefe inatticulate Sounds, feveral whereof, Brutes have in common with us. But as thefe are Paf- fions, and muft be reprefented in Difcourfe, the Interjec- tion has a good Foundation in Nature, and is a neceffary Part of Speech. The Greeks confound their Interjettions with Adverbs, and the Hebrews confound them with their Adverbs and Prepofitions, calling them all by the general Name Particle.

INTERIM: A Term borrow'd from the Latin, figni- fying in the mean time. Charles the Vth was the firft who brought it into ufe, in order to cempofe the Difturbances of Germany. It was a kind of Ordonnance or Regulation to beobferv'd in the Empire, with regard to (the Articles of Religion then controverted, till "fuch time as they fhould be determin'd by a Council ; and was therefore call'd Interim. It was faid to have been drawn up by two Catholics and a Proteflant. But as it retain' d moft of the Doctrines and Ceremonies of the Romanifts, excepting that of Marriage, which was allow'd to Priefts, and Commu- nion, which was adminifter'd to the Laity under both Kinds ; moft of the Proteftants reje&ed it : thofe who ad- mitted it, were nick-named Interimifts or AcUapbarifts : In- deed the Interim equally difgufted both Parties, the Pro- teftants and Catholics. Befides this, there were two other
