I do believe that if the virtue and efficacy of this medicine were gen erally known, the Feverand Ague would disap pear in Mi'chigan. ,: I procared a bottle in the spring of 1841, and have good reason to believe that miself and fam ily escaped the ague last spring in consequence of its use. Perhaps no summer since the settlement of this fine peninsular has tbe fever and ague been so prevalent as the last. I have recommenced this medicine in numeroua instances, and when the disease had become fixed and baffled the skill of physicians; and I have never known it fail! It has universally.prodiiced the most happy effects, and 1 believe it has never been exceeded by any medicine iu removing the bil ious d eases of the climate. ;.; 'r ; Youra respectfully,' ' Stephen V; B.

THE O'REGON TERRITORIY , AND BIG FIGHT IT CAUSED. Phil Doyle, silence, if you plaise here's someihina that looks like news,' cried Kit Donnellan, the one eyed school-master of Ballycasy, addressing the little group ol vil lage politicians who were in the habit of as sembling every bunday alter mass in IVit's schoolroom, for the purpose of hearing him read the Freemuri's Journal aloud. Kit spread out the paper with an air of proud importance, folded it back in mysterious si- lence smoothed it carefully on the table, coughed emphatically and leisurely scanned his auditory with his single optic, to see if all were properly attentive. A A low 'Whtsh t!' ran round the circle. 'I'll go bail to the Queen is bringiug over Repale to Ould Ireland,' whispered Tom Kel ly lo big Phil Doyle, the blacksmith. iNote power to her elbow, any how!' re plied Phil. ' : 'There's going to be a war between Eng land and Amerikey,' said the schoolmaster in an elevated voice. , . 'Tare an' ounties! is there? and what are they going to fight for?' inquired Ned Cost ello, the tailor. ' 'What for?' Why for fun, x out. spalpeen; what else would thej fight for!' replied the blacksmith, with a slap of his hard heavy band upon the diminutive tailors' shoulder, that caused it to ache for a . week. 'Aisy. Misther Doyle,' iuterupted the rea der: 'here's the rights of it printed in the pa per; and, according to my wake comprehiu sion, it seems that tbe row is all about a place called the O regon territory, that one Polk, an American is trying to get possission of. 'And whereabontsis this O-regonteritory, Misther Donnellan?' asked one of the pany, 'Whereabouls?' said Kit, scratching his ear with a puzzled air. 'Why, according to- the latest anacreoelic investigation, it's situated in the sou'-west corner of the parish of Jar many, handy by the town of Constantinople, on the borders of Paris, aud not far from the Isle of Man in the Propontic Ocean that's where the O-reeon territory is.1 . Brother!' exclaimed Tim Regan, who had been lisiening quietly in the corner. '1 know the Oregon territory better than anyofyees; and why shoulu'nt 1? ain't lone of the . rale ould O'Regan stock myself?' ' . ' . ' A general assent was given to this family claim by the- party. Be the same token, too,' continued Tom; 'I remember it was twenty years last Easther since the big fight was about the O'Regan territory. Och! that was an illigant scrim mage; and a beautiful sight it was to see halt' the congregation with. their heads band aged up at chapel oa the next Sunday.1 An unanimous request being made by the pan y, Tim Regan consented to relate the par ticulars of the big fight. , "Well then,1 said he, 'I must tell you that there was a little bit of a barren noc lying between Paddy Hogan's potato strip and my uncle Dan O'Regan's Garden which both of them" claimed. It wouldn'tgive grazing toa goose, but that's nothing where the family pride and honor is concernedvNeither of them would give it up, so it lay betune them like a bone bejuue two dogs, that oae is afraid of the other to touch: for, tnougn me uogans had the biegist faction in the parish, the O' Regans were the wickedest fighters. Things O - w w went on peaceable .enough in this way, bar ring a small row now and agin at a fair or a pattheru.just to keep the boys' hand in prac tice and saison their heads, till, one fine Ea ster Monday, Paddy Ilogan's pig took a no tion into his head to strowl into the knock. It wasn't long till my uncle Dan heard- of the threspass, and, running out, he met Paddy Hogan upon the road. 'Unve your p:g out of my land, Paddy "Ilogan, says he, 'or I'll I take the curl out of his tail.' 'There isn't! anO'Regan in the barony could do that,1 an swered Paddy. 'Isn't there?' says Dan, quite fair and aisv. and at the same time Limns a crack' with a bit of a twing that made Pad pv's skull sound like air imply taycanuister and left him kicking ud a daisy quilt. Oh! you murdering villain, you've massacrayed my husband,1 screhed Biddy Ilogan, coming out of her cabin with a stone tied injU;e cor ner of her apron, and running at my uncle she'd have made an ugly dint in his noggin, it he hadn't chucked his head to avoid it. Well, the cry of mudher was now riz,' and the bovs came gathering from allpartys: ol coorso no one asked what the row was about but all began to leather away for the bare life men,-women and children with sticks and stones, and spades and pitchforks, or anything that came handy to them, I he ould men and women and the young childher that warn't able to fight were standing on the ditches, screeching and clapping their hands and shouting lor their faction 'Whoo! the O'- Regans for every !',' Whoo! that's the sort Ned Ilogan, hit him again ma boucna! lion nom andiaou! the day's our own!'

Innumerable stories are fold of the pranks Mathews delighted to play under different disguises and in different characters. No doubt there is much exaggeration in these. I was myself sceptical as to Mathew's pow er of concealing his identity from persons to whom he was known. I happened to men tion this to Peter Coxe, who assured me the following instance occurred under his own observation: "I was invited," quoth Peter, "lo dine at the Piazza Cofiee-house to meet a select par ly, among whom was Mathews. The room we dined in had two doors. Matbew sat on ths right hand of our enlerteiner, by whose desire I seated myself next to Mathews. During dinner, tiie latter mentioned that an acquaintance of his, an obstinate, opionated old bachelor, whom he had known in the north, was now in lown,"and that- he was ex ceedingly apprehensive this person who was intolerably rude and overbearing, would find him out, and force himself on the company After1 dinner Mathews made himself exceed ingly agreeable, and we were all in the acme - of enjoyment when the waiter, .entering, aiw nounced that an elderly gentleman was be- , lo" inquiring for Mr. Mathews. 'What's his name?' asked Mathews in great alarm. ?IIe didn't say, sir. He says he knows " you are here, and he must see you.' ' A " ; 'Uld lhwaitesr. cried -Mathews, sfarlmg up; 'knew he'd ferret me out.1 ' Stay; what sort ot a mam's he?' said our entertainer. , " 'Has he a brown great coat on?' demand ed Mathews. ... A ' -I Yes sir,' .; . A - , , "': 'Green Specs?' . . A ' " 'Yes sir,' ' 4 " v Scratch wig?' .''-.'" - 'Yes sir,' ; J ,' ,-" , ; 'Sloops a good deal, and speaks in a north v country accent?' 'Exactly, sir; you've 1 . . 'Ah! I knew if,1 interrupted Mathews, shrugging up his shoulders and shooting to the stair's head. . ' j . - r I tell you I know he's in the house, and I will see him!' vociferated a Aoice on the stairs. . - " 'Say Bannisler's taken ill I'm gone othe theatre,1 cried Mathews, rushing in, seizing his hat, and bolting. .:' . He. had scarcely made his exit at one ,' door, when old Thwaits appeared althe oth- ' er. ,.Thd latter's tippearance parrespo'nded . in every respect with .the description given by Mathews. . '"'. - 'Where's Mathus?' demanded he, abrupt ly, in strong north-country accent." 'I know" he's here,1 continued he, hobbling into the room, and looking sharply around, 'and I must see him.1 ' 'Mr. Malhewg was here , sir,1 replied our host, with more politeness than I thought tho occasion called for; 'but he's just gene to , the theatre, and 1 - .. . -;'; 'That won't pass with mo', interrupted Mr. ; Thwaites, rudely. 'I know he's in (he house; ' you can't bamboozle me".' I know he doesn't -play to-night I've ascertained that. So , here,1 continued he. . putting down his hat' and stick, and seating himself in the chair Mathews had just, vacated, 'here I stay until Iv'e seen him.1 . ' 'We all started at this. .- ; v" " 1 . 'You're quite welcome to sfay, sir, as long as you please,1 said our entertainer, cooly. 'But what I tell you is the fact. : Mr. Ban- A" nisfer is taken suddenly ill, and ', ' 'It's a lie, sir,1 interrupted Mr. Thwaitesa gainj'it's a lie, sir1' repeated he, striking the table with his clenched fist until the glasses jingled again, 'and you all know it,' conclu- - ded he, looking fiercely around. 'Of course, we all rose at this.: . 'Pray, gentlemen,1 aid our entertainer, 'be seated, I beg. . As an elderly gentleman as a friend of Mr. Mathews, Mr. Thwaites is pri-' vileged to pray resume your seats, gen tie- , men.1 ' - " ; ' ' " . - 'We obeyed; though I confess 1 felt strong-' Iy inclined, in spite of his years, to ktck the intruder out. . 1 ; 'So you know me, do you ?' proceeded Mr. Thwaites, filling out a' bumper; Matlm mentioned me, did he? Pah! what rot-gut stuff! what beastly winer I wonder you can. drink such rubbish. Pah! -nothing but slop- juice aud cider. But "anything anything'.-! ' good enough for you cockneys,' added he. with a sneer. 'Ha! ha! curse me if I think you know good wine when you get it.1 'some ot us ventured to dissent from this. But-Mr, Thwaites stuck to his assertion, and maintained it with bo much rudeness, that it . required all the tact of our entertainer lopre serve order. No matter what subject was ; staited, Mr. Thwaites was sure to render it the theme for discord; until at length the pa- ' tience of the company becoming exhausted, we rose en masse, and were ou the point of forcibly ejecting the intruder, who, pulling , off his wig and spectacles, disclosed the fea tures of Mathews himself! I had for some time suspected this. Mv proximity to tho supposed Mr. Thwaites en abled me to delect a horse hair attached to the wig, which, passing under Mathew's nose, entirely changed the expression of his countenance. But no other person, except our entertainer, who was in the secret, had the slightest suspicion ot the cheat; the ad mirable manner in which Mathews supported tiis assumed character, but above all. the ce lerity with which he returned, so completely altered'in his appearance, precluding the pos sibility of-his being identified.'.'
