CHRISTMAS PREPARATIONS.

ON all hands arrangements are making to
celebrate the anniversary of Christmas. To create novelty
for a festivity so ancient requires some degree of ingenuity. and to
Introduce fresh sources of comfort and enjoyment claims more than
ordinary talent. For a great number of years novelties in Dress
have been an important item in Christmas preparations. What,
then, must be the amount of skill possessed by those artists whose
Introductions are new on each recurrence of this festivity? It is those
only whose success has long been the admiration of all &asses. and
whose seasonable productions have gained lasting celebrity, who can
provide articles of ATTIRE worthy of universal patronage. The
DRESS prepared for Christmas by E. MOSES and SON embraces
variety, surpassing all attempts
.at imitation, and exhibits novelties
which only the first Tailoring Establishments in the universe can
device. To maintain this distinction, E. MOSES and SON'S Christ-
mas Preparations present ATTIRE for ADULTS and JUVENILES
in the widest range of taste, the nucleus of their most celebrated
styles, DRESS for Christmas parties, the most splendid materials
and the neatest workmanship. OVERCOATS and WATERPROOF
CLOTHING in the most gentleman'y and comfortable styles.
HATS, CAPS, and HOSIERY, unequalled for quallly and beauty,
and all Coeds charged considerably lower prices than at any
other house.
N.B.—Christmas eve being Friday, E. MOSES and SON'S Esta-
blishments will be closed at half-past four o'clock.

THE MOTHER TO HER DEAF A
DUMB CHILD.

(From Eliza Cook's Journal.)
Thou art not beautiful, my voiceless child,—
Thou canst not fill thy mother's heart with pride ;
Thou dost not heed the words that have beguiled

My other noisyiOung ones to my side.
Thou cant not chatter music in my way,
Nor call me by a sweet and holy name ;
Thou dost not ask thy sisters if they'll play,
Nor scold thy brothers with a sportive blame.
But thou art precious in my household love,
Thy form is closest watched, my poor dumb boy 1
I stroke thy fair hair, and I hang above
Thy quiet features with a solemn joy.
I hear thy father praise the quick replies
Of his bright eldest one—l often see
His face light up, when his two girls surprise
The twilight circle with their saucy glee :
He tells them long and wonder-waking themes
Of Siubad, Crusoe, and the Fairy Queen ;
He leads their games, he joins their laughing screams,
With many a fond and wild embrace between,
But there's a something deeper in his smile
When his poor dull one leans upon his knee,
And something gentler fills bis heart the while
HiS fingers make a paper boat for thee.
The other young gay spirits talk and shout
In tones that come like songs of morning birds;
Or, pressed by childish grief, they wail and pout,
And pour their anguish forth in sobbing words.

I seldom see thy grey eye give a tear
When their red cheeks shine through the pearly gem ;
But I believe, my child, that thou canst hear
The secret, deep, soul-whisper lost to them.
When they surround me with engrossing clutch,
And some loud tale of auger or alarm,
I turn not as I do to thy soft touch,
That falls like ringdove's wing upon my arm.
My silent boy ! I hold thee to my breast
Just as I did when thou wert newly born ;
It may be sinful, but I love thee best,
And kiss thy lips the longest night and morn.
I never listen to the coming feet
That chance to slip and stumble in the hall ;
But my heart leaps with quick and sudden beat,
Lest thou, my speechless, be the one to fall.

I never look into a story-book,
And hear the joyous hum thy brothers maks.
But leaf by leaf I turn with hopeful grief,
And wish it held some pictures for thy sake.
I never stand among ye to divide
The birthday apples, or select the toy,
But I assign the fruit with rosiest side,
And daintiest plaything, to my wordless boy.
Oh thou art dear to me beyo.a .11

And when I breathe my trust and bend my knee
For blessings on thy sisters and thy brothers,
God seems the nighest when I pray for thee.
I would not they should know it ; but if Fate
Did its worst work, and snatched away my young,
I feel my soul would bear a deadlier weight
To miss thy silent love than their fond tongue.
Oh 1 thou art very beautiful to me,
My own dumb boy ! my gentle voiceless one I
And while it throbs, thy mother's heart will be
Thy best and first interpreter, my son !

ON THE PHILOSOPHY OF MARRIAGE, AND THE SECRET
INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY.
WITH FIFTY COLOURED ENGRAVINGS ON STEEL.
In French, English, German, Dutth, Spanish, and Italian, in a
Sealed Envelope, 2s. Rd., or post-free, for Forty-two Stamps,
SELF-PRESERVATION; an
Analytical Investigation of the Physiology and Functions of
Marriage, in all the bearings in which that important subject affects
the health and happincis of Man, with its Disqualifications and Impe-
diments, tracing their origin to the effects of juvenile solitary habits,
youthful excess, tropical climates, 07 close study; followed by prac-
tical remarks, founded ou twenty years' experience in the treatment
of Impuissance, Nervous Debility, Local Weakness, Spermatorrhcea,
Syphilis, and all diseases of the Urinary and Generative System. Il-
lustrated by 60 coloured Engravings, on the Anatomy of the Repro-
ductive Organs and their relative conditions in Health and Disease.
By SAMUEL LAWERT. M.D.
37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON,
Doctor of Medicine, Matriculated Member of the University of Edin-
burgh, Hono.ary Member of the Lordon Hospital Medical Society,
Licentiate of Apothecaries' Hall, London, &c., &c.
The essential object of this treatise is to point out the fearful
consequences resulting from irregularities and excesses, which
have produced more misery in Youth, degradation in Man-
hood, and premature decay at all stages of life, than, perhaps, any
other class of disease known to modern pathologists. The treatment
adopted is founded on experience gained in the most celebrated
schools of medicine both in this cour try and in continental Europe.
The results of the knowledge thus acquired are here condensed under
the Verbena' supervision of Dr. La'3fert,• himself one of the few
!egally qualified physicians who have devoted their whole and un-
divided studies to this important branch of medical science. In short,
every peculiarity relating to the treatment of the diseases incidental
to the generative system, and the means of immediate relief and
ultimate cure are described in detail. The professional reputation
of Dr. La'Mert, who has taken the most distinguished medical
and academic honours at home and abroad, is in itself a sufficient
guarantee that those who may place themselves under his care
will, in every instance, meet with that delicate cons'deration and
inviolable secrecy which are so requisite in the treatment of these
cases.

LISBURN ELECTION.

Mr. MACARTNEY complained of the delay which
had taken place in making the return for the Lisburn
election. The cause of the delay was to be found in the
Hanaper office, Dublin, and as similar delay had taken
place in other cases, perhaps the noble lord the
Secretary_ fordreland would inquire into the matter.
Lord NAAS had no knowledge whatever of the cir-
circumstance, but he would inquire into it.

THE MADIAIS.

Mr. KINNAIRD wished to put a question to the
-Under Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, relating to
the case of the two Madias, now under sentence of im-
prisonment by the Tuscan Government ; and to inquire
whether any reasonable hopes may be entertained as to
their speedy release.
Lord STANLEY said the Government had received
several communications from Sir H. Bulwer on the
subject, and he thought he might say from the-terms of
them that there was reasonable hope of the release of the
Madiais ; but at the same time the information was not
sufficient to enable him to speak positively on the
subject.

DISMTSSAL OF LORD PALMERSTON.
The Foreign Secretary who has served under many Ad-
ministrations has at length ceased to hold office, and every body
is giving a different reason for the separation. Some attribute it to
the turn of affairs in France, some to his Marylebone friends, with
their address and resolution and his Lordship's answer, some to a
personal difference with Earl Grey about matters which do not
come to light all at once, but the fact of his Lordship's separation
from the rest of the Cabinet is much regretted by many. We are
naturally sorry to part from olt servants, and there are some ser-
♦ices which cement parties together stronger the older they be-
come. Of this kind of service is that rendered by E. MOSES and
SON, who have for many years caused a reduction in the expendi-
ture for dress of more than one-half, and the longer we are used to
this the less we could do without it. In the, year 1851 not less than
half a million of money was saved to the public by E. MOSES and
SON, and although it can be clearly shown that every article reaches
the public at half-price, they challenge the whole world to a com-
parison of quality. They, by means of a large capital, and a staff
of workmen and designers perfectly unequalled, have surpassed
everybody in quality, and intend to keep the lead by a system which
the public fully appreciates.

EGYPT.

Accou❑ts have been received from Alexandria of
the 20th.

It is finally decided that the railway is to pass
through the populous and well-cultivated delta, cross-
ing the Nile by a floating bridge at Kefr-Zayat, a
route which will be much more advantageous to the
country than that first thought of, through the desert
on the western side of the river. The survey is pro-
gressing, and in the course of three weeks it is ex-
pected that the works at this end will be commenced.
Mr. ANDERSON (a director of the Peninsular and
Oriental Company), Mr. BRIGGS, and Mr. LARKING,
the deputation appointed to present to AnnAs Pecna
a copy of the resolutions adopted at the meeting in
London, are in Cairo waiting the return of his High-
ness, who is staying at his palace near the middle
station in the dessert. He, however, has promised to
be in Cairo about the end of the moon, when he will
be 'prepared to receive them.

RUSSIA AND POLAND.

A Berlin journal states that the Polish employis of
a superior grade on the Russian frontier have been
replaced by Russians.

ITALY.

The Risorgimento of the 30th ult. thus remarks on
the recent Ministerial change in England :
...

" Lord Granville will continue the mission of his
predecessor, at the same time that he will avoid all
acts calculated to wound the suspectibility of other
Governments. Lord Granville and all the
Ministry will persist in that liberal and pro-
gressive course which reconciled to England the
sympathy of all civilized nations, and constitutes the
principal basis of that moral authority and political in-
fluence she exercises on the continent. The acceptation
of Lord Palmerston's resignation can have no other im-
portance, no other political signification, than this:—The
English Government has proved that it considered it ne-
cessary above all to live in good harmony with the other
Governments of Europe. It consequently consented to
a personal sacrifice, in order to remove, with the person
of that Minister, all pretext of incessant vexation."

EXTENSION OF STEAM POSTAL

COMMUNICATION.

The extension of postal communication by stea
vessels proposed to be established from the principal
ports of the United States on the great lines of
com-
mercial traffic with Europe, Central America, and the
East, has now assumed an importance which entitles
it to consideration. By the official report of the
Postmaster-General of the United States, we find
that offers have been made to his department
to contract for a mail service from New York to Ant-
werp:; from New York, by Gibraltar, Marseilles, and
Toulon, to Genoa; from Philadelphia to Antwerp, and
for the extension of the New York and Havre line to
Bremen ; from New York to San Francisco by the
Nicaragua route; from Philadelphia to Havannah;
from New York to New Orleans, by ocean steamers, in
connexion with a contemplated railroad service across
the State of Florida; from New York to Gal-
way, in Ireland; from New York to Venezuela by
way of St. Thomas and other West India islands;
from San Francisco to China and Calcutta. Other
lines have been projected to the Brazils and
other parts of Central and South America, but
have not been submitted to the Government. As
regards the lines to Antwerp, it is stated that
the Belgian Government is ready to co-operate in
their speedy establishment and in their mainte-
nance, as they would be exceedingly advantageous
to the two countries, not
inly as respects their
postal intercourse, but also, a much higher de-
gree, as respects their commercial interests. The
proposition for the establishment of a line of mail
steamers between New York and Galway is to carry
the mail for ten years in steam-ships, readily con-
