THE CHRISTMAS CHIMES! h ! merry were the olden days when Christmas was at h uid. - When peace and plenty smiled around and blest our happy 1 ; Oh ! glorious were indeed the scenes enacted at those times. And blithely welcoro'd every heart the merry Christmas Chimes ! The holly and the ivy green around the halls wire hung, And songs of love and chivalry were oft by minstrels sung ; The titled great, the lowly poor, then, festive, met be- times, And every bosom heard with joy the merry Christmas Chimes! Then love and laughter, joy and bliss, made up the festive scene, The youthful danc'd with lightsome hearts beneath the evergreen! Whilst grouped around the aged sat, talked of the olden titn, s, And counted, too, how oft they'd heard the merry Christ mas Chimes ! The poor were fed, the naked cloth'd, and, though we must confers How little then of style and taste were shown in homely dress ; But difrrent 'tis since one rose, the King of modern times, Fur H yam' a fame extends where ring the merry Christ mas Chimes! His Clothing, matchless in extent, in beauty, and in shade, Pr`i f us'lY now for Christmas time are gorgeously dis played ; Then, if you would revive again the scenes of olden time., First buy a Suit of liyam's Clothes ere peal the Chrite mos Chimes, For favours shown throughout the year B.

A MIDST the many changes which have taken place 11 during the eventful y-ar of 1844, still it must be con fessed that the most prominent amongst them have all bad iendency to eastatilish peace and commerce; and it is this feeling of confidence which has, perhaps more so than any other, estiblished trade on such a firm and substan tial foundation. At the commencement of the present year, a year made memorable by the successive visits 01 the principal crowned heads of Europe, many were the professions then made as to the future • but, amongst a ll those who pledged themselves to the public at large, per haps there was not one who mad, such great professions as B. HYAM, 63, LORD-STREET. And now we triumphantly ask has he not redeemed every promise ? has he not surpassed al previous effort , ? has he not, in addition to his old patrons, secured thousands of new ones? To all these questions we unhesitatingly an swer YES! and the immense success which has ultimately crowned his labours with such unparalleled effect, renders it an imperative duty on his part to make the most suita ble and grateful acknowledgement ; and it is his intent on durin g the CHRISTMAS HOLYDAYS, ti PRESENT everyCUSTOM ER with a SPLENDID GIFT, which wit enable them to visit the Polyteclin c Exhibition, the Theatres, the Concerts, or any other public places uf amusement and resort at this restive season of the year. And, in order to effect this, B. Hyam will, during the en suing holydays, sell his matchless clothing at 50 per cent. lower than any house in the trade!

T HE object of the proposed Undertaking is the con struction of a Railway from the Town and Port of Whitehaven, in Cureber:and, to join the Furness Railway in North 1 ancashire, now in progress of formation, and eventually to extend the same by way of Ulverston to Lancaster. The proposed Line will he nearly Thirty-two Miles in length, commencing at Whitehaven, to which Town a continuous line of Railway communication from New castle, Carlisle, and Maryper: is nearly completed, and extending from Whiteheven Southwards by way of Saint Bees. Netherto vn, G. sfor,h, Drigg, Ravenglass, 80. tle, Wni'beck, a d Whichain, to Millom, and thence across the Estuary of the Duddon, forming a Junction with the Furness Railway, near Ireleth, and thence by the latter Railway to the Shipping Ports of Pie! and Barrow, with a Bran :h to Ulverston. The Steam B nits from Fumess to Fleetwood will furnish a direct communication with all tl a great Railvp ys in England. The Rai'way will p , ss thiough a Country rich in Agri cultural and Mineri Productions, the district being sin gularly favourable for its construction ; affording a cheap and easy transit to good Marke!s, and to one of the best and safest Harbours in the North of England; and by means of it the great Coal District around Whitehaven, which is only second in importanc e to the Newcastle and Sunderland Collieries, will be made available for manu facturing and other purposes throughout the whole extent of the Line where Coals ate now extravagantly dear. It is proposed to purchase land sufficient for a double Line of Railway, and to construct the bridges according!), but until the traffic is fully developed, to lay down a sin gle line only : ano Mr. Stephenson has satisfied the Com mittee that the cost will not exceed the sum of £lO,OOO per mile. The existing Traffic has been carefully taken at dif ferent Stations between Whitehaven and Ulverston by experienced local parties ; and from their returns it ap pears that the following is a very moderate Estimate of the income likely to accrue to the Railway from such Traffic, viz.:— Passengers £10,760 i • Add the usual railway increase.... 10,760 Coal. Lime, Slate, Iron Ore, Mer chandize, &c.. 12,358 Deduct O ne -thi r d , t h e usual al- £33,878 lowance fur Working Expenses.. 11,292 Leaves ........ £22,586 Being a R e t urn o f nearly Six and a Half per Cent. upon the proposed Capital of £350,000. This return has been made without any calculation of the large addition certain to be made to the traffic by the transit of Pas , engers and Goods from Scotland into Cum berland and Lancashire, as well as from the Furness Railway, connected as that Line is with the extensive Iron Mines and Slate Quarries of the Duke of Buccleuch and the Earl of Burlington, a portion of the products whereof will naturally be drawn upon this Line for Ship ment at Whi , ehaven, to Scotland, and the North of Ireland. The Promoters of this undertaking have the satisfac tion of announcing that it is horn ured With the sanction, and has the promise of cordial 8(4.p -ft, from all the Noble Owners of those large Materal Estates previously referred to. and from the principal Landowners along the Line. And they have also the gratification of being as sured of the entire co-op.eation of the several Railway Companies of which this Lineforms the count cling Link between West Cumberland and the great Manufacturing Districts of I ngland and Scotland. The preliminary measurer have been taken to secure an Act of Parliament in the ensuing session, and as the dis trict to be traversed is almost a continual level, there is every reason, under Mr. Stephenson's superintendence, to rely on the speedy completion of the Work. It is proposed to raise the required capital in. 17,500 Shares, of £2O each. A Depcs't of £1 per Share is re quired to be paid prior to the Billgoing before Parliament, in compliance with the Standing Orders, but no Wither Call will he made until the Act of Parliament is obtained; after which Three Months' interval will e'apse between the Cells, none of which will exceed £3 per Share. Tee Bill will contain all usual and proper Provisions for limiting the liability of each Shareholder to the amount of his Shares only. Prospectuses to be bad of, end application for Shares to be made to Mr. JOHN MEYER, Secretary, p ro / fin, 3, Guildhall-buildings, London; to the respective solici tors in London or Whitehaven ; to any member of the Provisional Committee ; c r to WILLIAM DOWSON and SON, 8, Goree-piazza, Liverpool.
