It depends on how you did the mysql dump.  Traditionally, if you ran something
like

$mysqldump horde > horde.mysql

you'd restore it by doing something like

$mysql horde < horde.mysql

That is, the mysqldump command just outputs a string of SQL statements that
will recreate the data when executed as an SQL script.
