The Safety and Happiness of the
Country.

HON. MR. LANAR'S VIEWS on THE SITUATION
HOW TO BRING THE GOVERNMENT BACK TO
CONSTITUTIONAL PROCEDURE.
WASHINGTON, January 3.-Mr.> Lamar is
quoted as follows: The safety OF this coun-
trv, and especially the happiness and pros
perity of the South, depend on the strictest,
most loval, devotion to the Constitution !;
and all the disorders that affect the country
at this time are the results OF departures
from the fundamental law; all the dangers
now apprehended are the dangers which
will spring alone from the violation
Of constitutional methods. There is no
necessity for any revolution or for violence
in order to bring the Government back to
constitutional procedure. 1t is only neces-
sary to concentrate the attention OF the
people upon the violations already commit
ted, and those threatened, in order to eXor-
else the danger and difficulty. Indeed, the
result OF the war Of secession has ellml-
mated from the system all resorts to extra
constitutional remedies, and, happily, In this
emergency none are needed. Whether the
Joint committees of the two houses agree
or not, the provisions OF the Constitution
are adesuate to safe and satisfactory
and final solution OF every question in
yolved in the present emergency. On
the 14th of February next the houses
will be bound, under the Constitution,
to meet in the same chamber and per-
form the duties and to exercise the pow
ers which the Constitution devolyes upon
them: to examine and ascertain the result
of the election OF President and Vice-Pre-
sident. Neither house can refuse TO per-
form these duties without abnegating it's
constitutional power and violating its con-
stitutional duty. In this august assemblage
it is the condition Of our national life
that the duties imposed shall be dis
charged in the spirit of truth and
patriotism, regardless of consequence
to party, but :. profoundly anxious for
those that concern the whole country. II,
however, as the Constitution contemplates,
in this as we'll as in other cases requiring
the cooperative action of the two houses
they are unable to agree upon decision
whether either candidate has been elected, it
must follow that there can be no constitu-
tional ascertainment and Judgment put
upon record that any one has received ma
iority of the electors appointed. 1t is in
effect failure to elect. In such case
the Constitution is clear. It deYelopes upon
each of the houses their respective duties
one to elect the President, and the other
the Vice-President. Let the Constitution
be maintained invioiate, and there need be
no disorganizing collision, and no. necessity
Of resorting to force. s.,.s r.-..

DECEMBER 80, 1876.
We have had several horse-stealings this
Christmas in Upper Louisa and Fluvanna.
A negro, Andrew Jackson, former slave Of
BENJAMIN Henson, was seen riding one OF
them in the direction Of Palmyra. The
other two stolen horses were carried in the
direction Of Charlottesville or. Stanton.
Can there be an organized plan, like that OF
Boards, throughout the same country
again? Tramps or strangers coming to q
neighborhood, especially at Christmas,
should be closely watched. Farmers, lock
YOUR stables. G. r. D.

The Teeth Of q Horse.

At FIVE years Of age q horse has forty
teeth. These are twcnty-iour molars or
Jaw teeth, twelve incjsOr or front teeth.
and four tuSks or canine teeth, between
the molars and incisors, usually wanting
in the mare. At birth, only the TWO nip
pers or middle incisors appear. At q
year old, the iuciSors are an visible on
the first OF milk set Before three years
the permanent nippers have come through
At four years old, the permanent divilcrs
next 10 the nippers are out At FIVE the
mouth Is perfect, the second set Of teeth
having been completed. At six, the ho.-
low under the nippers, called the mark,
has disappeared from the uippers, and di-
miniShed in the dividers. At seven, the
mark has disappeared from the dividers
and the next teeth, or corners, are level,
though showing no mark. At eight, the
mark mas gone from the corners, and the
horse Is said 10 be aged. After this time
indeed, good authorities say after FIVE
years-the age Of a horse can only be
coniectured. But the teeth gradually
change their form, the incisors becoming
round, oval and then triangular. Dealers
