How TO ASCERTAIN THE AGE OF A
HoRsH.--ln purchasing horse, not the
least important matter is to be- able 10 tell
bis age. In transfers Of ordinary farm
and saddle bOrses, great impositions are
often pFacised upon the credulOus and
unfinished purchasers. To prevent this
to as great an extent as possible in future,
is tho object Of this communication to
the public. The most certain means Of
ascertaining tho age Of horse is TO ex.
anime the changes which take place with
the teeth. The twelve front teeth be.
gin TO shoot in about two weeks after
the colt is loaled. These are called colt
teeth, and are she'd at different periods
and Teplaced by others. When the colt
is about two years and a half old, the
four middle ones come out: in about
year four Others are lost: aud another
year, or when the horse is four and a half
yeaFs0ld, the four last are shed. These
last are replaced by what are called COT
n6r teeth. They are hollow and have
black mark In their cavity. They are scarce
~ visible, and the cavity deep, when III
horse is four and half years old; they
begin TO gil when hs is six and half, and
the mark continually diminishes and con,
tracts till the horse is seven or eight years
old, when the cavity ellis up and tho black
mark is obliterated. The horse acquires
bis canine teeth, or tushes, ahour his fifth
year. The two 10 the lower jaw begin
80 oappoaF when he is between three and
and four years old, and those in the up.
Peflaw five or six months after. They /
continue very sharp-pointed till six. Al I
ten, the upper seem blunled, worn out
and long, the gum leaving them gradually
1.-The barer they are the older the horse
from ten 70 fourteen, it is difficult to tell =
the age ofa horse. II is sufficient to know
that be is old, and under the hard treat. J
ment which is given to horses generally, !,
iheconelusion will be safe one that he :
IS worth but little. l'

corn law bill has passed tho House o

Of the Queen having been given, is now
a law. This bill admits flour and other
produce into British colonies, little or no
duly being charged thereon. To the pco.
pie of Ohio, this bill opens a market
which must necessarily raise the price u
our produce, aud ia truth from Ohio, ,Aour
can DO sent through Canada to EagIaud,

it could be shipped direct TO England
from ahy of our Atlantic cities.
Is it not a singular fact, that the feder-
