Dublin: Hodges and Smith, Urafton-street. A M. A A few nights back, in health and spirits prime, I went to rest about my usual time, Nor did the clock a dozen minutes number, Before I sank into a peaceful slumber. And while I thus reposed upon my bed, A sound of music floated round my head ; For, understand, although I was asleep, Some little consciousness I seemed to keep ; So, when I heard the music, soft and sweet, I knew the Christmas waits we re in the street. I listened to their strains in various modes, And f aidly thought of Pope's and Dryden's Odes, In which, by either poet, we are told, Of what the famed musicians did of old ; And while I heard the music of the waits, I pictured harpers at the castle gates. And many a fond romantic scene arose, Till music steeped me in a deeper doze. A curious dream then came across my mind, Original and novel in its kind : Methought that HYAM was desired to call On Father Christmas at his ancient hall; The object of the visit was nut stated, And nothing in the least was intimated, Yet HYAM, from his manner, seemed to guess Some special refrence with regard to dress, And making up his mind without delay, He called on Christmas on the appointed day. The abode of Father Christmas was a pile Precisely in the old baronial style ; A noble English mansion did it seem, And much aid it delight me in my dream. Thick on its lawn the holly bushes grew, The smiling mistletoe and myrtle, too. While verdant bays and laurel boughs were seen To vary pleasingly the winter green. lIYAM arrived precisely to his time, And bound the " festive father" in his prime ; His eyes were bright, his cheeks were full of glow, Just as they were five hundred years ago. " Good morning, sir (said Christmas), how d'ye do " "Good morning, sir (said IiYAM), how are you ?" And thus the usual compliments were passed, Till business things were introduced at last. " I sent for you (said Christmas), to enquire What stock you have of gentlemen's attire ? I'm rather anxious, Sir, for your reply, As Christmas time is now se very nigh, A few more days, and we shall find it here, With all its happiness and social cheer; And I'm ambitious (said the good old sire) Of seeing all appear in good attire. A sumptuous feast is very well, I know, And glad I am my subjects find it so : I love the feast, the holly, and the log— But what are these without a change of ' tog ?' While we're attending to the inner man, We ought to mind the outward all we can. And, therefore, Mr. HYAII, do I ask, How you, this season, have performed your task ? I scarcely have a doubt (continued he), That what you've done will be approved by me ; But notwithstanding this, I wish to hear What you've performed in your extensive sphere ?" Here Christmas paused—nor need I tell you why, He merely paused, awaiting a reply. " Father (said lIYAM, with respectful bow), If I was ever honoured, it is now ; And I'm prepared, without one if or but,' To answer every question you have pat. The preparations I have made (said HYAM), Will satisfy the multitudes that try 'em. All kinds of Christmas dress—designed anew, At my Establishment are brought to view. I've winter wrappers, good in snake and cloth, Fit to defy the winter's utmost wrath. Such over-coats as those which I've in store Are better than were ever made before. I've dress (said HYAM), in the various styles, And first-rate suits for youths and juveniles ; There's not a thing in which I've been remiss At such a time of holidays as this, And, Sir, (said lIYAM), I would have you know That all my goods are sold extremely low. Economy has ever been my law, And from this rule I never will withdraw." " Hear, hear (said Christmas, rising from his chair), That's famous, Mr. lIYAM, I declare. I wish you much success, nor do I doubt That thousands will by you be well-rigg'd out. I'll not emit to recommend your dress To all my friends—l can't, in fact, do less. I find that you adopt the very way To realise success—good day—good day." Here both shook hands, and bid a warm adieu, Well pleased, of course, with such en interview. And finding matters come to this decision, I lelt so happy that I lost my vision ; But, should I have another, you shall know it, For I'm a most communicative poet. L. lIYAM and Co. beg distinctly to state that goods made by them can only be obtained at their places of business. 36, Grace church-street, and 86, Oxford-street ; and at their various establish ments in the following towns:—Birminchmn, Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds.

The following testimonial is another proof of the great efficacy of this medicine : " Winchmore Hill, Middlesex, April 16, 1851. " Sir,—ln considoratt , n of the great benefit I have derived from taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards or nine years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion, but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other medicine ; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothbag to equal it. "I am, Sir, es pectfully, TIIOMAS PROVINCE. " To Mr. T. Prout, 229, Strand, London. This excellent Family Pill is a medicine of long-tried efficacy for correcting all disorders of the stomach and bowels, and are a pleasant, safe, easy apperient, they unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect, and require no re straint of diet or confinement during their use.

STEAM COMMUNICATION BETWEEN NEW 'Yon ] , AND GALWAY.—The Gaiway Vindicator of Tuesday contains the following:—A letter reached Galway this morning from a gentleman in reference to steam communication between this port and New York. For some time past, the American committee that was formed to carry out the project had a good deal of up hill work, bat they are now in a position to bring their arrangements to a speedy and satisfactory completion. They have received every encouragement from the President of the United States, who promised to re commend in his Message the dispatch of the American mails by the line of steamers about to be formed be. tween Galway and New York. Taking all the cir cumstances into account, and recollectin g the encou ragement which Mr. Wagst:affe received in this coun try, we are, on the whole, inclined to think that the United States will start for Galway. INSPECTORS or MEDICAL CHARITIES.--The Limerick Chronicle says :—" The fixed salary of In spector under the Medical Charities Act is 500/. a-year, with 11. ls. per day while on district duty, and 9d. per mac travelling expenses. There were 300 physician and surgeon applications before the Poor-14w Commissioners for the five places now filled up. THE ATTEMPT TO MURDER RICHARD DYAS, ESQ. —The gentry of the district of Charlestown-Delviu— the scene of the attempted assassination of Richard Dyas, Esq., on the 19th of November last—have sub scribed the sum of 6001. as a reward for the convic tion of the perpetrators of that outrage. The Go vernment has likewise offered 1001. on the usual con ditions. A portion of the above liberal reward of 700/. will be paid for such private information as may lead to the detection of the guilty parties. EXTRAORDINARY TRIAL.—Tree Chief 13 Iron of the Excht-quer, with a special jury, were occupi-d from Thurs(l4v last until last evening with t'l,-_t singular case of Widinn lieory M.thew against Dr. William Harty and Robert Stok-s, in which ?he plaintiff sought for damages to the extent of 5,000/. for false imprisonment. The defence set up was that the plaintiff had been confined as a dangerous lunitie. According to the statement of Mr. White,ide Q.C., as counsel for the t'w case was full of mystery, and, he might have added, of the romance of real life. However, as the trial progressed both the history and the ro mance vanished, and now it appears a very intel liciblc' but, nevertheless, very extraordinary case. The plaintiff, who seems to be now about 25 years of age, never could ascertain who his parents were until Monday last, when the fact was admitted in open court by counsel for Dr. Ilarty that he (Dr. H.) was his father. The narrative of the unhappy plaintiff's life—as a school-boy, a student in college, and latterly as a tutor, his cares and troubles, his successes and disappointments, and his never-ending anxieties to learn who he was—formed a fertile subject for his eloquent counsel to dwell upon, while the auditory in court, as well as the public out of doors, were deeply interested in the case. Throughout his whole career Dr. Harty acted as his guardian. He gave him to understand that he had a fund placed at his disposal for the purpose of his education, and when he cams to man's estate the doctor helped him to provide for himself, as a tutor. The plaintiff having become rather troublesome to Dr. Harty, this gentleman brought him off to Swift's hospital, where he had him locked up as a dangerous lunatic, but from whence he procured his discharge, through the intercession of a person to whom he appealed to have his wrongs made known in the proper quarter. The plaintiff was examined and cross•examined at considerable length on Saturday, and as far es the mere spectators could form an opinion, his testimony was that of a sane person. He admitted that whilst studying for college honours he had been subject to attacks of dyspepsia and great depression of spirits then and subsequently. Dr. Harty is himself the proprietor of a private lu natic asylum. He is now about 70 years of age. His counsel, Mr. Martley, thus divulged the secret, which the unhappy plaintiff had been all his life anxiously endeavouring to discover : " Dr. Harty (said Mr. Martley) is a very old man. I understand he is in a most precarious state of health. I am told that his production in a court of justice may be fatal to his life. lam not answerable for it ; but he and those who are interested for him consider that anything is preferable to the imputation that has been cast upon him, and at the risk of his life Dr. Harty shall appear before you. And am I not warranted in saying that this is the most painful case that ever occurred ? This young man had heard rumours about his parents. He had been desirous to discover them. Dr. Harty shall be produced ;he shall be sub jected to a pretty severe examination ; he shall be obliged to admit, and the shame of a public admis sion and exposure is no trifling penalty to a man about to leave the world—that this young man wbo is now persecuting him to the death is his own ille gitimate son.—(Great sensation.) He must boatdeence shame of publicly revealing that secret" in Preference of to incurring the disgrace of having having funds concealed which belongbeeton the a plaintiff, or of the plaintiff bein a person e n titled on coming He will have to give of age to a large proprtliose of his life, when he is evidence here now, appearing to answer before a BO near the prospect of f the trust tell you the whole truth." higher tribunal— dWedhtihteastidthe,erreevrieewalelyd The Learned Gheentalenmd the whole evidence, Ge ntle man, Mr . t hing to show the unhappy young man was not was no_ of sound intellect at the time of his incarceration in ft ma dh ous e as he was while giving his evidence in that court. The Chief Baron summed up the evidence. The jury then retired to their room, and a ft er an absence of about fifteen minutes returned to the box, and the fireman handed down a verdict for the plain tiff for 1,0001. The announcement produced loud and prolonged applause. Mr. Armstrong, on bebclf of the plaintiff, applied to his Lordship to certify that the case was a proper one to be tried by a special jury. The Chief Baron assented. The Court then adjourned.

Mr. Jones, Ordnance store-keeper, and family, took a passage to Malta in this ship. Messrs. Fox and Henderson, who have the Govern ment contract for the erection of a new smithy in Portsmouth yard, have commenced their work. The old buildings are being cleared away; it will stand between the new factory and the building slips, and will take in Nasmith's patent steam-hammer. As this part of the yard is all made ground the greatest difficulty will be to get a good foundation for the walls. It will be a large building. The Hampshire Guardian says—" It is to be constructed of glass and iron, and a part of the late building in Hyde-park will, in all probability, form the structure. When completed it will be the most capacious, commodious, and beautiful building of its kind in the world." The members of the ship-building committee, com posed of Master Shipwrights Edye, Abethel, and Fiucham, who have been at Portsmouth Dockyard for so long a period, have been ordered to their re spective dockyards.

SERIOUS DISASTER TO TEE MAGNET STEAMER: Last evening an accident befel the Magnet steam•ship, while proceeding up the river, on her return from Am sterdam, which nearly involved her wreck and damage to a valuable freight. The Magnet is an iron-built vessel of considerable power, and When at St. Peters burgh station made one of the fastest passages from that capital, perhaps, on record. A day or two ago she left ilelvoet for the Thames, with a full freight of boasts, calves, sheep, butter, and other merchandise, and her trip went prosperous enough until, on reaching Lime house Reach, she unfortunately touched upon some vessel's anchor. The rush of water into her engine room promptly intimated that a serious hole had been made in her bull, and much alarm etas naturally excited for the fate of the live stock on board the steamer. The water kept gaining . upon her, and lavirg reached the fires, they were extinguished, and her progress stopped. The aid of a tug host, however, was secured, and at length the Magnet, after some difficulty, was got to the Dublin Steam-wharf, Lower East Smithfield, where she was hauled in shore, and the live stock got out the best way practicable. We were unable to ascertain her actual damage, but it was stated that her engine-room and after part was full of water. As the tide went down attempt, would be made to haul her close in shore. The state of the tide was a most fortunate circumstance, for had it been flowing, the probability is she would have sustained much more serious damage. As it is, it is feared that she has suffered more than was at first anti cipated. The disaster created some excitement in the neighbourhood of St. Katherine's. THE VACANT MASTERSHIP IN CHANCERY.—No formal appointment to the Mastership, vacant by the eleva tion of Master Kinderaley to the Vice-Chancellorship, has been made and all the business of the office, by a general order of the Qourt, has been distributed among the other nine Masters.
