(51! merry were the olden days when Christmas was at hind, When peace and plenty smiled around and blest ourbappy lind; Oh! glorious were indeed the scenes enacted at those times, And blithely welcom'd every rt the merry Christmas Chimes! The holly and the ivy gr around the halls were hung, And songs of love and ivalry were oft by minstrels sung ; The titled great, t owly 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 times, 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 confess How little then of style and taste were shown in homely dress ; But diff'rent 'tis since one rose, the King of modern times, For Hyam's fame extends where ring the merry Christ mas Chimes ! His Clothing, matchless in extent, in beauty, and in shade, Profusely now for Christmas time are gorgeously dis played ; Then, if you would revive again the scenes of olden times, First buy a Suit of Hyam s Clothes ere peal the Christ mas Chimes! For favours shown throughout the year B. Hyam would express His gratitude and heartfelt thanks for all his great success. He would see Commerce far extend, restore the good old times, Till all should welcome once again the merry Christmas Chimes ! SELLING OFF. HOUSEHOLD FURNITURE, AT REDUCED PRICES. S.

AMIDST the many changes which have taken place during the eventful year of 1844, still it must be con fessed that the most prominent amongst them have all had a tendency to eastablish peace and commerce ; and it is this feeling of confidence which has, perhaps more so than any other, established trade on such a firm and substan tial foundation. At the commencement of the present year, a year made memorable by the successive visits of the principal crowned heads of Europe, ...ny were the professions then made as to the future • .ut, amongst all those who pledged themselves to t üblic at large, per haps there was not one who mad ch great professions as B.

To all these questions we unhesitatingly an swer YES ! and the immense success which has ultimately crowned his labours with such anparalleled effect, renders it an imperative duty on his part to make the most suita ble and grateful acknowledgement ; and it is his intention during the CHRISTMAS HOLYDAYS, to PRESENT every CUSTOMER with a SPLENDID GIFT, which will enable them to visit the Polytechruc Exhibition, the Theatres, the Concerts, or any other public places of amusement and resort at this festive season of the year.

The profits resulting from scientific Draining are ad mitted by. every agriculturist. Tiles (the material for Draining most frequently used) can be made by machines at less than one-half the cost for which they are now selling within the probable sphere of the Company's operations; from this source it is esti mated that a large profit will result to the shareholders combined with equivalent advantages to the agricultural interest.

The mere title of the " Columbia Fur Company" carries with it no more weight than that of any other company; but the immense resources of this gigantic stream, the length of which is 1560 miles, connecting by its own waters, or immediate branches, the vast districts of Austria, Colo, Canoe Camp, the Hocky Mountains, Flat Brow, Chippeway, Pembunco, and the principle Fur climates, as well as the Lakes, and the ready transit for skins procured by the inhabitants, who, as well as the native India tribes, principally gain their subsistence by capturing fur-producing animals, enables this Company to offer FURS AT PRICES THAT CANNOT BE EQUALLED, (When Quality is consulted) BY ANY OTHER HOUSE IN THE KINGDOM. The Oregon or Columbia River districts produces a greater variety of Furs than any other in America. Sid ney Hall, Esq., when treating of zoology, in his able introduction to Black's General Atlas, says of this dis trict—" Its most distinguished characteristic is the number of its Rodentia, amounting to no less than 53 well ascer tained species."

T HE object of the p ro p ose d U ndertaking is the con struction of a Railway from the Town and Port of Whitehaven, in Cumberland, to join the Furness Railway in North Lancashire, now in progress of formation, and eventually to extend the same by way of Ulverston to Lancaster. The proposed Line will be nearly Thirty-two Miles in length, commencing at Whitehaven, to which Town a continuous line of Railway communication from New castle, Carlisle, and Marypert is nearly completed, and extending from Whitehaven Southwards by way of Saint Bees, Netherto vn, Gcsforth, Drigg, Ravenglass, Bootle, Whitbeck, aid Whicham, 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 Piel and Barrow, with a Branch to Ulverston. The Steam Boats from Furness to Fleetwood will furnish a direct communication with all the great Railways in England. The Railway will p.iss through a Country rich in Agri cultural and Mineral Productions, the district being sin gularly favourably for its constructio n • affording a cheap and easy transit t o good Markets, 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 importance 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 are now extravagantly dear. It is proposed to purchase land sufficient for a double Line of Railway, and to construct the bridges accordingly; but until the traffic is fully developed, to lay down a sin gle line only : and 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 Add the usual railway increase... • 10,760 Coal, Lime, Slate, Iron Ore, Mer chandize, &c.. 12,358 Deduct One-thi r d, th e usual a1£33,878 £33,878 lowance for Working Expenses.. 11,292, Leaves Being a Return of 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 Passengers 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 Whitehaven, to Scotland, and the North of Ireland. The Promoters of this undertaking have the satisfac tion of announcing that it is honoured with the sanction, and has the promise of cordial support, from all the Noble Owners of those large Mineral 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-operation of the several Railway Companies of which this Line forms the connecting Link between West Cumberland and the great Manufacturing Districts of 1 4 'ngland and Scotland. The preliminary measures, 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 Deposit of £1 per Share is re quired to be paid prior to the Bill going before Parliament, in compliance with the Standing Orders, but no further Call will be made until the Act of Parliament is obtained ; after which Th ree M ont h s ' i nterval will elapse between the Calls, none of which will exceed £3 per Share. The 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 had of, and application for Shares to be made to Mr. JOHN MEYER, Secretary, pro tern., 3, Guildhall-buildings, London ; to the respective solici tors in London or Whitehaven; to any member of the Provisional Committee ; or to WILLIAM DOWSON and SON, 8, Goree-piazza, Liverpool.
