    Christmas At Malta.—A Correspondent Of T...

    officers on board on that day . I overheard ji council among tdie seamen -whether ¦ tfieyr-would not chair her round the decks , which one old fellow skid might easily be done , if they could only get her to " close reef her crinoline . " The seamen and the soldiers have leave to go 4 nto the town , but the officers-are very wisely doing all an . their power to induce them to make their ships and their barracks their home . A quantity of holly and mistletoe was brought out in the Pera , and has decorated the shop of the Gtinter of Malta , and great has been the demand upon him for a little bit of his have

    treasure . Those wha could not get mistletoe , , ¦ without hesitation , christened some other green plant by that name for the nonce . Her Majesty has also sent to her sailor son a good supply of mincemeat from Windsor Castle , and I saw a gentleman taking some of this as a great prize to his Maltese wife . Bands are perambulating the streets , every second tune being " God save the Queen , " and her health will be drunk over and over again by her soldiers and her sailors at Malta this Christmas . The soldiers of the 23 rd give a ball on the 26 th in honour of their new colours . The demand for the " Ballroom Guide " has nowfor the time quite superseded

    that for the Drill book . A FRAtroui-ENT French Stockjbroker . — The trial of M . GLblain , agent de change , on a charge of falsifying public documents , creates great interest in Paris . The accused was charged in the indictment with having been in receipt of about £ 6 , 000 a year , but , not being satisfied with that amount , with having had recourse to all kinds of manoeuvres to increase his gains . He was accused of deceiving his clients as to the operations he managed for them , and of keeping systematically a set of false books or

    entriesi In April , 1857 , he paid the sum of 27 , 000 odd frands to escape a criminal prosecution threatened by some clients of Amiens ; and , about the same time , the Earl of Gal way ceased to be a partner in Giblain ' s agency , and demanded the immediate reimbursement of half a million of francs which he put into the concern . The instances of trickery are almost endless . The official examiner of the books of Giblain asserted that between August , 1855 , and July , 1858 , the accused had reaped 32 O , 000 f . by the use of fictitious names . The trial is not yet comr pleted .

    The Tokos . —We understand that Mr . Jobson , formerly surgeon-dentist to her Majesty and the late King William I v ., wlio has recently returned from a lengthened tour in America , has discovered this celebrated Indian remedy , the long sought for antidote to the bite of the Cobra di Capello and other deadly snakes . It s identical , we believe , with the snake-stone recorded by Sir James Tennent iu his " Travels in Ceylon . " nnd possesses restorative or sustaining -powers of the highest description . Combined with our ordinary medicines , it intensifies them in a wonderful degree , audl is almost a sovereign specific for all affections of the chest , digestive organs , muscles , and impurities of the skin , gout , rheumatism , & c . For details , however , we must refer to himself at the New York Hotel , Leicester-street , Leicester < -square , where , he is at present to be found .
