The Hither of the ?rrcat or Uor and statesman, Richard Brinsley Sheridan, ifhon leases of old Clrow street theatre, .DubliiiJ was the "mnmiffii " alluded to in the origin of the word7 'qniis." The word "quiz," to make fun of, to poko fun at a person, was the coinage of theatrical manager in Dublin, whi,at a ! drinking party with Iiis friends on Sut j tufdny uight whero tho conversation turned upon the subject of words, offer ed to bet wine that he could then and , there coin a/word which, would he in the souths'of ail Dublin* next d;?y.

Tbe manag? r won his bet. and tbe word is new in nil resrjec ablc dictionaries. ''The'" Bi.mg expression for death, 'kicking fhe bucket/ had its origin from ? one Bolsover, who, in England, n great while ngo, committed suicide by Standing ? or> n bucket till he Licked tho bucket from under him, **Tho wrod 'bumper,' moaning a f 1 drink when fricunfl are drinking, is n corruption of the toa6t olfcrcd in Kreuch to tho l'opc when tho Catholic religion was in tho nscondaut in E-iglaud?un bon pore,' -J* 5 "IIuinbug' is a corruption of the Iri-di words 'uttu bog.' prououucod com DUffj signifying soil copper, or pewter, or brass, or Worthless money, such as was made by Jainea II at the Dublin mint.

"Tin -day;" so begins tho newspaper, gentleman transacting busmen iu this villagty left his horre attached toa ?chaise tied under ashed. Reinai iiug with the horse was a coach dog, who took advantage of bis master's abicnci .enjoy, a busty nap in thevehielo. in the meantime the bnrso Moin"hnw broke iw?y fiom bis ftutcoing, ands'arted o?

Fortunately, however, tho reius fell from tbe carriage on to the ground, when the dog;, with (dugulur -| resence of mind ' leaped nimbly aft: r them, caught them . in biB mouth, reined the horse to a stand ?tili, and held the reins firmly until he . delivered them, with a graceful wag <> the tail to a stranger, whom, undo" ordinary circumt-tuuer-s, bo would m t have allowed to approach bis master'. property." A good Mory ia told of old dohh ^ .McCill, who jestded during the war in Kost Tinnrssee.

' No sir," replied Meli ill. uAre you a rebel, then ?" ?.?No sir." "Then tvjiat in the d vTa o;ime are you," rofcred the eiptnin. "Woll/str," hesitated-McGill, "to toll the honest troth, I'm?nothing?and but blasted little of that." Monkeys arc fcarce in Michigan.

The customer seeing a saddle thai, suited him, he afifced the price. Monkey said nothing. Customer said, "I'll give twenty dollars for it," laying down tbe money, which monkey shoved into the drawer. The man then took the saddle, bnt monkey mounted him, tore his h tir, scratched his face, and the frightened customer screamed for dear life. Pro prietor rushed in and wanted to know what's the ' f?tw. "i?us? I". Paid tho customer1?^'fUM* I bought a saddle of your yon, Kitting thore, nud whon I went to take it, be wouid'nt let me have it."

I 33 K JAMISON I ATTORNEY AT LAW. rjractioa in tlie Courts of CHANGE It I RG und DAUN WILL, j ORF IGE COURT HOUSE SQUARE. Feb 22d _ \_ lly . Fever and Ague, from which mankind suffer over a large part of the globe, is the consequence of a diseejfls. action ia the system, induced by the poisonous^miasm of vegotable decay. This exhalation is evolved by the action of aolax heat oa wet soil, an<" rises with the watery vapor from it. While the -on is below the hor?n this vapor lingers near the earth's sur face, aad the virus is taken with it through the lungs into the blood. There it acts na an irritating poison on the internal viscera and excretiug organs of the body. The liver become* torpid and fails to secrete not only this virus, but also the bile front the blood. Both the virus and the bile accumulate in the circulation, and produce violent constitu tional disorder. The spleen, the kidneys, and the stomach sympathise with the liver, and become disordered also. Finally, the instinct of our or ganism, as if in an attempt to expel the noxions infusion, concentrates fite whole blood of the body ia the internal exoretories to force thorn to cast it out. The blood leaves the surface, and rushes to the central organs with congostive violence. This is the Chill. But in this effort it fails. Then the Fkvbb follows, in which the blood leaves tho cen tral organs and rushes to the surface, as if in another effort to expel tho irritating poison through that other great excretory? the skin. In tnU also it fails, and the system abandons the attempt exhausted, and waits for the reoovery of st?mgth to repeat the hopeless effort another day. Theao are the fits or paroxytms of Favna and Aoub. Such constitutional disorder will of course under mine the health if it is not removed. Wo have labored to find, and have round, an antidote, Ayer's Ague Cure, ?Whioh neutralizes this malarious poison in the blood, and simulates the liver to expel it from the body. As it should, so it docs cure this afflicting disorder with perfect certainty. And it does more, or rather does what is of more service to those aub ioct to this infection. If taken in season it oxpels t from the system as it is absorbed, and thus keeps those who use it free from its attacks; keeps the system in health although exposed to the disease. Consequently it not only cures, but protects from, the great variety of affections which are induced by Ulis malignant influence, snch as Remittent Fever, Chill Fever, Dumb, or Masked Ague, Periodical Headache, or Bilious Headache, Bilious Fevers, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Gout, Blindness, Toothache, Earache, Catarrh, Asthma, Palpita tions, Painful Affections of tho Spleen, Hysterics, Colic, Paralysis, und Painful Affections of the Stomach ana Bowels, all of which, when arising from this cause, will be found to assume more or less tho intermittent type. This " Aoub Cub* " removes the cause of those dcrangomcnts, and cures tho disease. This it accomplishes by stimulating the exere 'tones to expel the virus from the system; and these organs by degrees become habited to do this their office of their own accord. Ilenco arises what we term acslimataiion. Time may accomplish the same end. but often life is not long enough, or is sacrificed in the attempt, while this " Aoub Cvbb " does it at once, and with safety. Wc have great reason to believe this is a surer as well as safer rcmcdv for the whole class of diseases which are caused by the miasmatic infection, than any other which has been discovered; and it has still another important advantage to the public, which is, that it is cheap as well as good. prepared by , DR.
