All attempts to lay any part Of the

Had it not been for the prompt and
decided stand taken by the governor
the trouble would have been far
more serious. Disregarding the
wishes of the two factions in the
matter Of appointments to office,
the governor appointed men that
were acceptable to the great body OF
the people. He also removed the
State arms from Forrest City and
refused to send militia when asked
to do so. He acted in such a man
ner as to quiet the excitement and
bring peace and order. The late at

How to Tell Horses Age Without Con- sultiEg an Export.

1 How to Tell Horses Age Without Con- suItirg an Export.
 The foal is born with twelve grind CTS. When four front teeth have made their appearance the colt is 12 days old, and when the next four assert themselves it's age will be about 2S days. The corner teeth make their appearance when the foal is about s months old, and these latter teeth at tain the height of the front teeth at the age of year. The 2-year-old has the kernel-the dark substance in the middle of the tooth's crown-ground out of all the front teeth, In the third year the middle front of teeth are shifted, and when 3 years old these are substituted by the permanent Cor horse) teeth, which are larger and more yellow than their predecessors. The ne-it four teeth are shifted in the fourth year, and the corner teeth in the fifth, giving place to the permanent nipper.
 At5 years of age horse has forty teeth, of which twenty-four are grind CTS, far back in the jaw, with which we have little to do. But, be it re- membered, horses invariably have tusks, which mares very rarely do. Before the age of 6 is arrived at the tusk is full grown, and has slight groove on its internal surface (which generally disappears with age. the tusk itself becoming more rounded and blunt), and at 6 the kernel or mark is worn out of the middle front teeth. There will still be difference of color in the center of the tooth.
 The tusks have now attained their full growth, being nearly or quite an inch in length, convex without, con- cave within, tending to point and the extremity somewhat curved. Now. or perhaps some months before, the horse may be said to have a perfect mouth.
 At seven years tho mark, as de- seribed, is very nearly worn out of the four center nippers, and fast wearing away in the corner teeth, especially in
 
 mains in the center of the tooth. and is not completely filled up until the animal is eight years old. As he gets on past seven the bridle teeth begin to wear away. s'~
 At eight the kernel has entirely dis appeared from all the lower nippers. and begins to decrease in the middle nippers. It is now said to be ''past mark of mouth" There are indica- tions, however. after this age which will enable very shrewd observer to guess very closely at horses age, but none that can be relied upon by observers. As horses become advanced in years the gums shrink away and the teeth exhibit 8 long and narrow appearance; they lean more forward and assuthe an arched shape. Dub lin Farmers Gazette.
