The Grave of Washington
Who is to claim the grave of the im
mortal Washington, since the State of
his nativity has proved traitorous and
false to every holy warning of that
wise and great man? Is it not humil
iating, that the home of Washington
should declare against the very fabric
he fought and bled for, that she might
become free, and in whose cause he
spent his precious existence, and when
he gave up this life, his last request
was, that he should be buried at the
old homestead, in the State where he
first beheld the light of day, and where
his bones now lie bleaching beneath a
southern sun. That flag which he so
gallantly defended, has been shameful
ly insulted by the very people who
should hold the name of Washington
as dear as we of the North, and who,
had they not been led away by a mad
desire to gain position and power,
would this day have been as loyal and
as intent in the preservation of the
Union, as the host of patriots who
have gone to protect it against those
who have lived in it as long as we have,
and enjoyed every blessing and privi
lege that any State ever has in free
America.
Who shall claim the grave of Wash
ington? We of the North have the
best right to claim it, because we have
stood up manfully for the right and
against all secession; while, on the other
hand, the South claim it, because his
bones lay beneath Southern soil. Wash.
ington never intended that his bones
should rest where traitors reside. If '
the North neglects to seize and protect
that sacred spot on the banks of the
beautiful Potomac, it would not be a
wonder if the holy spirit of the immor
tal.father of our country, would rise
up in rebellion against his brethren
who have sworn to destroy that which
lie spent a great' portion of his life in '
bringing about. We would call on
those in power to remember this, that
they may use the precautionary meas
ures to guard and protect it in such a
manner that no traitor foot may ever
press the sod under which his bones
now lie, nor traitor hand ever pollute
the sacred and hallowed enclosures by
its unhallowed touch. Let a guard of
patriots surround the monument to
protect their pestilential breath from
ever soiling its pure and untarnished
exterior. The ingratitude, aye, base
ingratitude of these unholy conspira
tors, knows no equal in ancient or
modern history. The historian of to
day will have a blacker page to record
than the world has ever yet seen.—
We of the North will claim Mount
Vernon, because we are loyal to the
teachings of that good man, and will
never allow his rest to be disturbedby
those who seek the destruction of that
Union he so dearly loved. Yes, put a
guard around it, that even the eyes of
the traitors may never desecrate it by
one single, solitary, unholy glance.—
They are unworthy to gaze upon the
soil on which Washington tread. We
would recommend to their calm and
deliberate perusal, just at this time,
the Farewell Address of Washington.
In the face of the teachings of that
sacred instrument, can they go on in
their unholy career. The tide of over
throwing events will check them ere
long, and they wild be brought to real
ize what it is to be forever and eter
nally branded as traitors. They will
go down to their graves with the curses
of rising generations resting upon their
heads. Their memory will be remem
bered only with curses. Their child
ren, even unto the fifth generation,
will share the disgrace brought upon
them by their fathers.
El=
The time has come when every man
should be watched, especially stran
gers. Various rumors have been afloat
in this vicinity, in regard to spies, and
it is high time that some step should
be taken to arrest every one who may
be suspicioned, and give them a fair
and impartial trial. Suspicious-looking
persons, of both sexes, should be thor
oughly searched, unless they can prove
conclusively who they are, -what they
are, and where they came from. Du-
ring . last week several rumors were
circulated through our streets, in re
gard to spies, Ono story proved to be
a canard, another we are inclined to
give credence, as we have been in
formed of the facts by very reliable
persons,—persons who are not sensa
tionista—that three strange men have
been seen on Stone Creek Hill, several
times, by difterent persons, who declare
that their actions were calculated to
arouse suspicion in the minds of those
who saw them. Sometimes only two
of them. are seen, then the whole three
will emerge v 67 suddenly from some
place no one knows where, They look
about for a little while then they dis
appear as mysteriously as they came
in sight. These facts we give just as
they were given to us, but we do not
pretend to say they are true more than
that we have them from reliable per
sons. Should they be seen again we
think it would be advisable to arrest
them if they can be caught, and if they
prove to be spies, hang them higher
than Haman, without Judge or Jury,
for the man that will act as a spy
against his own country, would violate
the person of his mother, and is St
only to dangle from a gibbet, to become
food for vultures.
Since writing the above, we have
learned from a gentleman who saw the
transaction, that a spy was arrested in
the cars going cast on Sunday night,
between Altoona and this place. He
carried important documents from
President Davis, and was armed to
" the teeth." There was a company
of soldiers, and Young's Brass Band,.
of Pittsburg on board the train, as
well as several high military officers,
which caused some excitement, and
there was no notice taken of this fellow
until they reached Altoona, where
some of the military officers " spotted' ,
him, and resuming their seats in the
cars, they arrested him, and took him
on to Harrisburg. The penalty fixed
on a spy is, to bang him, and we hope
this fellow may not escape.
The difference between the army
in the South and in the North is, that
in the Smith they force men under
arms, while in the North men volun ,
teer. Those who refuse to enlist, are
driven from the chivalric soil—those
who are too old, have their property
seized in lieu of service, while those
who fly rather. than raise an arm to
strike the nationality they love, have
all they own confiscated to the ruth
less uses of treason. This difference
must be explained some day, and bit
ter will be the reckoning from these
outrages.
Interview with the President
From the Baltimore Sue, April '23.)
We learn that a delegation from five
of the Young Men's Christian Associ
ations of Baltimore, consisting of six
members of each, yesterday proceeded
to Washington for an interview with
the President, the purpose being to in
tercede with him in behalf of a peace
ful policy, and to entreat him not to
pass troops through Baltimore or Mary
land. Rev. Dr. Fuller, of the Baptist
Church, accompanied the party, by-in
vitation, as chairman, and the conver
sation was conducted mainly between
him and Mr. Lincoln, and was not
heard entire by all the members of the
delegation.
Our informant, however, vouches for
what we now write. He states that
upon the introduction they were re
ceived very cordially by Mr. Lincoln
—a sort of rude familiarity of man
ner—and the conversation opened by
Dr. Fuller seeking to impress upon
Mr. Lincoln the vast responsibility of
the position he occupied, and that upon
him depended the issue of peace or
war—on one hand, a terrible, fratrici
dal conflict, and on the other, peace.
"But," said Mr. Lincoln, "what am
I to do r
" Why, sir, let the country know
that you are disposed to recognize the
independence of the Southern States.
I say nothing of secession; recognize
the fact that they have formed a Gov
ernment of their own—that they will
never be united again with the North,
and peace will instantly take the place
of anxiety and suspense, and war may
be averted."
"And what is to become of the rev
enue? I shall have no Government—
no resources."
Dr. Fuller expressed the opinion
that the 'Northern States would con
stitute an imposing Government, and
furnish revenue, but our informant
could not follow the exact turn of re
mark.
The conversation turning upon the
passage of — troops through Maryland,
Dr. Fuller expressed very earnestly
the hope that no more would be order
ed over the soil of this State. Ile re
marked that Maryland had shed her
blood freely in the war of Indepen
dence, she was the first to move for
the adoption of the Constitution, and
had only yielded her clinging attach
ment to the Union when the blood of
her citizens had been shed by stran
gers on their way to a conflict with
her sisters of the South.
Mr. Lincoln insisted that he wanted
the troops only for the defence of the
capital, not for the invasion of the
Southern States. "And," he said, "I
must have the troops, and mathemati
cally, the necessity exists that they
should come through Maryland. They
can't crawl under the earth, and they
can't fly over it, and mathematically,
they must come across it. Why, sir,
those Carolinians aro now crossing
Virginia to come hero to hang me, and
what can I do ?"
In some allusion to the importance
of a peace policy, Mr. Lincoln remark
ed that if he adopted it, under the cir
cumstances, there " would be no Wash
ington in that—rno Jackson in that--
no spunk in that 1"
Dr. Fuller hoped that Mr. Lincoln
would not allow "spunk" to override
patriotism.
Mr. Lincoln doubted if he or Con
gress could recognize the Southern
Confederacy. [And we suspect that
such a Congress as the next will be,
with all the Southern States out of it,
is not likely to recognize it.] With
regard to the Government, he said "he
must run the machine as he found it."
And in reference to passing troops
through Baltimore or 3faryland, he
said, "Now, sir, if you won't hit me, I
won't hit you."
As the delegations were leaving, Mr.
Lincoln said to one or two of the young
men, "I'll tell you a story. You have
heard of the Irishman, who, when a
fellow was . cutting his throat with a
blunt razor, complained that he hag
gled it, Now, if I can't have troops
direct through Maryland, and must
have them all the way round by wa
ter, or marched across out-of-the-way
territory, I shall be haggled,"

Important from Maryland.
Extra Session of the Legislature.—Mes
sage of Gov. ilicks.—Action of the
Senate.—More Outrages b 1 Maryland
Traitors.
FREDERICK, Md., April 27.—The
Governor's message to the Legislature
was sent in to-day. It briefly details
the startling events which induced
him to assemble the Legislature.
Notwithstanding the most learned
and intelligent citizens admit the right
of the Government to transport its
troops over railroads, it is evident that
a portion of the people of Maryland
are opposed to the exercise of that
right. The Governor's own con
victions are that the only safety of
Maryland lies in preserving a meutral
position between our brethren of the
North and of the South. He had
hoped that Maryland might have acted
as a mediator. Ho cannot counsel
Maryland to take sides• againss the
General Government until it shall
commit outrages upon it which would
justify us in resisting its authority.—
He is convinced that his policy has
been maintained by a large majority
of the people. He appeals to the Leg
islature not to be swayed by passion ;
but to aet with prudence and Christian
like temper.
The Senate has adopted an address
to the people of Maryland, stating
that the Legislature will not pass an
act of Secession, but if they believe the
people desire- it, they will give them
an opportunity of declaring for them
selves their future destiny. The House
has not acted on this, but has appoint
ed a committee to report an act for
the call of a Convention of the people,
of which Mr. Scott of Baltimore is
eh airman.
PERAVILLE, 11d., April 27.—A gov
ernment messenger who left Washing
ton at 1 o'clock this evening, reports
that the track this side of the Annap
olis Junction, was torn up by the Se
cessionists of the vicinity, yesterday,
for a distance of two miles. It will
soqn be repaired. A body of five thou
sand troops was to be moved, this
morning, towards Washington.
Union Domonatrations in Maryland
C lIAMBERSIIURG , April 26th.—Pas
sengers from Hagerstown this morn
ing, report a sudden and most won
derful change in sentiment in that
section of Maryland. The Stars and
Stripes were raised at Hagerstown
to-day, and there are extensive prepa
rations for further Union demonstra
tions. The election next week for
Representative will result tremendous
ly for Lewis P. Ferry, a Union man.
Allegheny county has instructed its
representatives, that if they vote for
Secession they will be hung when
they return home.
The stars and stripes are waving
all over Frederick city, and the Home
Guards refused to parade except un
der its folds, and to the tune of Yan
kee Doodle.
At Clear Spring every house has its
flag, and the miners have sworn to
resist Secession to the death. By
next week no sympathizers with the
Southern traitors will darn to avow
their sentiments at Hagerstown, Fred
erick or Cumberland.
Another passenger reports the Eas
tern Shore counties, except Worcester,
as Union to the core. The Union men
will raise a military company at once.
THE LATEST NEWS
Highly Important from Washington
By Overland Express to The Press
WASn7NGTON, April 2G.—lt is stated
by the best authority, that Lord Lyons,
the British minister, sent a special
messenger to detain the steamer Per
sia at .New York until full despatches
could be forwarded by him to the Home
Government. Lord Lyons is advised,
I understand, to proffer to the United
States Government, for the suppression
of the Slave-State rebellion, arms and
ammunition, and troops from England
and Canada. By the Persia he sent
out orders for three hundred thousand
stand of the improved Minie musket,
and for a vast number of the celebra
ted rifled cannon. Orders in future
are not to be filled in 'England for the
Rebel Government for arms, or ammu
nition, or ships-of-war.
It is believed that an English and
French fleet will be sent to the South
ern ports at an early day, to co-oper
ate with the United States fleet in the
blockade of Secession ports.
Louis Napoleon has joined with Vic
toria to suppress the Slave-State rebel
lion. It is stated that his offers of ser
vice to President Lincoln are now on
their way to Washington.
It is hoped here that Yancey and
his confederate traitors will be seized
by France and England and sent to
the United States to be tried and hung
under the extradition treaties.

with barrels of cement, flour, and the
cast-iron plates intended for the com
pletion of the Great Dome of the Cap

Arrest of Senator Mason of Virginia.
Release of General Harney
PHILADELPHIA, April 29.—We learn
from undoubted authority that theex-
Hon. James M. Mason, late United
States Senator from - Virginia, has been
arrested by the United States author
ities.
The information comes from an of
ficial source.
The arrest took place at Perryville,
Maryland, to-day.
Instructions havo been -sent-by-tel
egraph to have him brought at once to
Philadelphia,
The arrest was ordered by Major
General Patterson, who has supervi
sion and command of the line between
this city and Washington.

A Requisition on Pennsylvania for 21
More Regiments.
Pennsylvania to have 40,000 men. —A
Stay Law.—s3,ooo,ooo to be appro
priated.—An open Transit to Wash
ington, the., the., the.
HARRISBURG, April 28.—The Legis
lature will re-assemble to-morrow.—
The Governor's message, which will
be read on Tuesday will recommend a
Stay Law.
The declaratory portion of the mes
sage will say that Pennsylvania will
open a route leading from the North
to Washington, it being essential to
trade and transit. Whether Maryland
stays in the Union or goes out of it,
no hostile soil will be permitted to lie
between the national capital and the
States loyal to the Union. Rebellion
must be crushed, and the nation re
stored to its entirety. The national
property seized by the rebels must be
retaken and possessed at every ex
pense of treasure and blood. An ap
propriation of not less than three mil
lions of dollars, perhaps five, will be
recommended.
A requisition from the General Gov
ernment was received to-day, through
the hands of Gen. Patterson, for twen
ty-one more regiments, twenty infant
ry and one cavalry—making a total for
us of twenty-eight regiments—twen
ty-nine thousand five hundred men.
Applications for filling all this con
tingent have already been filed at the
Adjutant General's office, save for four
regiments, giving a chance for Phila
delphians.
The Governor will also recommend
in his message that ten thousand men
be brought out, encamped, drilled, and
armed, beyond the present requisition
of the General Government, in order
to form a reserve, to march to any
point that may be required, and to fill
up losses occasioned by battle or disease.
Thus, Pennsylvania will have forty
thousand men altogether in the field.
An understanding has been entered
into between the Governors of New
York, Pennsylvania,Ohio and Indiana,
by which those States shall act in con
junction to throw troops and provis
ions into Washington, or elsewhere
South, upon the.order of the War De
partment.
Governor Curtin, in his message,
will earnestly recommend the appro
priation of $5,000,000, and the raising
of 25,000 additional volunteers for do
mestic defence, as well as for Federal
service.
Camps will be established at West
Chester, to be called Fort Wayne; at
Pittsburg, to be designated Fort Wilk
ins; at Reading, which bas not yet
been named. These camps are to be
used to prepare volunteers for active
service in the field.
Cairo, in Illinois, Wheeling, in Vir
ginia, and some point on the north
western line of Maryland, are to be
fixed upon for the concentration of
troops.
Five regiments at Camp Curtin will
be ready to move at a moment's warn
ing:
The Governor of Ohio is moving two
regiments on Wheeling, one on Parkes
burg, and one at Guyandotto and
Point Pleasant, to protect the Union
men of western Virginia.
Our Army Correspondence.
CAMP
April 26, 1861.
MR. EDITOR, :—.ll - aving promised to
let you bear from me, and as I have a
few leisure moments, I shall endeavor
to give you a few current items.
We left Camp Curtin Sunday morn
ing the 20th, at 2 o'clock A. M. and
arrived at Cockeysville about 8 o'clock.
Herewo found the bridge burned; we
then encamped about a mile from the
Railroad, which camp was named
Camp Cockeysville, (but the boys term
it Camp Misery.) Here we had an
exciting time, of which I suppose you
have bad all the particulars; there
were rumors from Baltimore constant
ly, and in the afternoon wo were in
formed that an attack would be made
that night—of course every ono was
on his guard. There was a double
guard put on, and a stationary guard,
of forty mon, stationed so that in case
of an attack they ;would open the fire.
Your humble servant had the honor of
being one of that chosen band.
About 12 o'clock at night, we were
informed by Gov. Hicks, of Maryland,
that all was safe. The men were al
lowed to lay down on the bare ground
and get some rest, but to be ready at a
moment's warning. The Guard was
then doubled, and our little band was
taken for that purpose. About two
o'clock a. m., there was about 7 horse
men came riding towards our Camp at
a furious rate; when they came up
your writer commanded a halt which
was instantly obeyed; they wanted to
pass but could not; we made them re
trace their steps. We afterward
learned they were a part of a company
of Cavalry from Baltimore; although
they pretended to be farmers—their
actions did 'not suit me, so I hailed
them ; of course the action raised one
of the greatest excitements we had all
night, although there was no excite
ment before.
So you can lay it before your readers
that tbo boys who decoyed the Balti
more cavalry were S. G. Baker, of
Alexandria, and Wm. Hoffman, of Lob
anOn, both of Camp C. 3d reg. Penna.
Volunteers. That night was one of
the most intense excitement. We
were encamped on a bleak hill, where
the enemy had a fair chance at us all
round, and we had no chance for resis
tance—we had but 20 rounds of ammu
nition, which would soon have run out.
On Mondaymorning we were moved
to a beautiful Hickory grove, which
we named Hickory Grove Camp, and
at 6 o'clock P. M., we moved for the
Rail Road, where we were shipped to
this place—York—and encamped on
the fair grounds, which is called Camp
Scott. We have not yet received our
uniforms or equipments, but I under
stand we will get them to-day or to
morrow. Whore they will send us
next we do not know, but there is a ru
mor afloat that the 3d Regiment will
be stationed at Chambersburg.
Last night the Pittsburg Regiment
arrived on the ground. The boys are
all well, and in the very best spirits.--
We would like to hear from Old Hun
tingdon and what she is going to do.
Excuse me for not writing sooner, but
after this I will keep you posted.
Yours truly,
S. G. BAKER.,

Late and Important from South Carolina
Jeff Davis' Movements
From tho Phila. Bulletin of Saturday evening.]
We had a conversation to-day, with
Mr. Andrew Weild, an intelligent
stone cutter, a resident of this city,
who reached home from South Caroli
na yesterday afternoon. Mr. Weild
went to Columbia about two months
since, to work at his trade, and during
the time he was there, he and other
Northern men were compelled to either
go into the secession army or perform
patrol duty. He chose the latter, and
he was compelled to turn out two
nights in each week.
On Thursday last, he obtained per
mission to come North, as an escort
for two families, who wore coming
home. He was informed that if he
belonged to New England, he would
not be allowed to go.
Mr. Weild loft by railroad and pro
ceeded to Portsmouth, Virginia, where
he took a steamer and went to Balti
more, from which city he came on in
the usual way. All along the line of
the railroad there were signs of milit
ary operations, the moving about of
bodies of soldiers and encampments of
troops at various points.
Jeff. Davis was three hours ahead
of our informant with a large body of
troops. Three companies of Georgia
soldiers traveled on the train with Mr.
Weild. Their officers made no secret
of the fact that they were all marching
to Richmond with Davis, and that
their ultimate destination was Wash
ington, which they expressed their de
termination to seize. Jeff. Davis and
his party were at Portsmouth, when
our informant left that point to em
bark for Baltimore.
Mr. Weild represents that a shock
ing condition of affairs exists in South
Carolina. All males from sixteen to
sixty years of age, are compelled to
go into the army, and many of the
soldiers aro Northern men, " who
have no stomach for the fight," have
been forced into the ranks.
Business was stagnant, and it was
understood at Columbia that the port
of Charleston had been blockaded by
Federal ships. Three vessels loaded
with provisions had been seized.—
There were five thousand soldiers at
Columbia, and there was much com
plaint among them of the insufficient
food furnished them. All provisions
were enormously high there. Butter
was 50 cents a pound, potatoes 40 cts.
a peek, and beef 20 ets. a pound.
It was understood that there were
7,000 to 8,000 men in and about the
fortifications in Charleston harbor
Repairs were in progress at Fort Sum
ter. When the news of the secession
of Virginia was received at Columbia,
there were extraordinary rejoicing,
bond fires were kindled and a mass
meeting was held. John C. Preston
made a speech, in which he stigma
tized Northern men as poltroons and
cowards, and eulogized South Caroli
na troops as invincible.
The South Carolinians considered
the proclamation of President Lincoln
a capital joke, and they declared that
they would soon have him out of
Washington. Mr. Weild says the
slaves understand very clearly the
events that are in progress, and they
cause much uneasiness among the
people. They are closely watched,
and most of the South Carolina sol
diers object very strongly to leaving
the State for the purpose of marching
North, saying that they wanted to
stay in the State and protect it.
31r. Weild says that the taking of
Washington is the great paramount
idea in the South, and this seems to be
the principal object of the military ex
peditions on foot.
Seizure of Powder and Contraband
Goods—Projected Attack on Cairo.
CAIRO, 111., April 26, 1861.
The steamer C. T. Hillman, from St.
Louis, bound to Nashville, Tennessee,
was abandoned by the officers and
crew when opposite this place. The
deserted steamer was boarded by Cap
tain Scott, in the steamer Swallow,
who found on board 1000 kegs of pow
der, and a largo quantity of other con
traband goods. It is supposed that
the captain and crow of the Hillman
deserted her for fear of the conse
quences if caught by the troops at this
point.
Passengers from the South report
that troops are being raised at Mem
phis, Randolph, and other Southern
points, with the plan of proceeding by
rail to Columbus, _Kentucky, and from
there march to Cairo, and attack it
from the opposite side of the river.
The steamer S. D. Perry, from St.
Louis, was brought to last night, but
no contraband goods being found on
board, she was allowed to proceed.
Thirty Thousand Volunteers from New
York
ALBANY, April 25.—Governor Mor
gan has issued a proclamation calling
for additional volunteers. Twenty
one regiments, in all, are to be accep
ted, making the full complement of
the State thirty thousand men.
No Shipment from Boston for the Enemy
BOSTON, April 27.—The Nautical
School ship _Massachusetts is being
armed and fitted out as the pioneer
for the coast guard service. Boston
harbor is to be entirely closed against
the shipment of any article for the aid
and comfort of the rebels.
REMARKABLE COINCIDENCES.—The
first blood shed in the war of the Rev
olution, was that of Massachusetts;
Massachusetts blood was the first shed
in the wsr of 1812; it was tho first
shed in Kansas, and the first shed in
Baltimore by a mob who endeavored
to prevent the Massachusetts Regi
ment from reaching the National Cap
itol under a call from the President of
the country. A short time before the
war of 1812, a whale was captured in
the river Delaware. A whale was
captured In the same river on yester
day a week: The above are worthy
of being recorded as remarkale coin
cidences.

Then History's C 2112080,1 page has told,
Since Nero's car in blood e'er rolled.
Dissolve the Union! Speak, ye hills,
Ye everlasting mountains cry;
Bhrlek out ye streams and mingling rills;
Awl ocean roar in agony; - -
Dead Heroes! leap from Olory'a nod!
And shield the manor of your God I
Iteir A Market street firm received
a letter from one of their Kentucky
customers, containing the following
patriotic sentiments :
"A small band of us in the town are
threatened with order to leave by the
mob. We attend to our usual busi
ness with our rifles at hand, and will
defend our homes or perish in the at
tempt. We have amongst us men who
owe their all to your citizens, who are
now endeavoring to excite the rebels
to stain their hands in your blood:
Honor, religion, and common decency
appear to have left us; but truth and
justice will prevail, and the world will
be purged of much villainy. The na
tional flag will triumph, and if I could,
without injustice to my family, I would
leave for the capital this day, and add
my feeble efforts to our noble country's
cause."
TO THE PEOPLE.—
.
Citizens of Huntingdon or vicinity, or elsewhere in the
county, who desire to contribute anything that will be
useful in supporting the families of Volunteers, who hove
left their homes to defend our flog, can do so by sending
to any of tho Committee appointed to take charge of and
distribute mousy, or help contribute for each Purpose.—

amseyancer. Itreto Edition, published by J. B. Lippin
cott et CO., Philaddphia.
This work contains 204 pages, and upwards of 000 P.nles
and Examples, entirely awl thoroughly practical, such as
arise every day in the common pursuits of Business. It
has alrbealy passed through a number of editions in rapid
succession, and fs pronounced by alt classes of business
men to be the handiest book of reference, pertaining to
calculations, that has ever been published.
Every example in the book is worked out in full and
stated in a plain manner, so that when a parallel ease ari
ses, those referring to the work will find no difficulty in
solving it; in a word, the general arrangement of the
CALCULATOR is simple, that any One who knows how to
add, subtract : multiply and divide, can easily solve any or
dinary example that arises In business, or arrive at the
true twilit of any estimate required.
The chief aim of the author has been to eschew theory
and philosophy in figures, aiming only at facts and simpli
city, believing that business men ease little shout Emen
ding time in discussing the philosophy of rules, or the
science of figures, deeming it sufficient for their purpose
to be able at a moment, by reference, to arrive at the true
result. The CALCULATOR differs in this respect from all
other Arithmetics of the day and kindred works—it is n
key to practical business calculations—it is, in the bands
of the business man, what the key to mathematical works
In the hands of the teacher in the school room—it facili
tates time and insures correctness.
