Tom Hycr and MCGOWAN Fight.

These worthless, as is known 70 our read
ers, recently had prize fight in in Illinois,
nearly opposite st. Louis, for heavy wa
ger. Our inf rnant states that but Ten
persons were present, and they invited
guests. Among these was the editor Of The
St. Louis Democrat, who, after reviewing
the igls, says: : I'VE have only to add,
in conclusion, that we most heartily con-
denim and desp;se all such brutal expositions,
and though we were induced TO be present
at the bloody combat, it was FOR The pur-
pose of ac,ral'y witnessing how far human

physical supremacy" HyER was declared

A gentleman from sway down South"
dropped in upon rs yesterday morning, and
stated that he had been some time "pros,
pecting" through the Territory, and that he
was so highly pleased with climate, soil and
people, that he is en- rou.e for home to immi-
crate with his own and Other families
"This fall weather of yours" said he, "has
decided me- and care not how cold your
winters afe, if ! can exchange for .hcm the
wet and ever changing weather of our
Southern falls" A Western League" has
been formed in New York, for the purpose
of securing the advantages Of an extensive
settlement. The general plan is to secure
a tract of land in the state of Iowa, COM
prising from twenty to thirty thousand
acres, to be divided into $50 farms, and SO
laid out as to form neighbOrhood; and On
this tract to lay out site for town, inclu-
ding park and other public grounds.
"The League" had better come this
way, and take look at Minnesota, which
has, We firmly believe, most peculiar and
decided advantages over any state in the
union for such an enterprise We are glad
to see the movement at any rate. 1t will
enable many who are struggling in the
crowded cites for their daily bread, to lay
the foundation of happy home, by sober
lives, and patient industry. No person in
the West need long be "out of employ
ment," if he has health, and will put his
shoulder to the wheel with right good will.
We have often noticed with regret the
crowd Of idlers in the denscly populated
cities of the East, and we advise all such as
have not entirely sunk their native dignity
and energy to join some Western League
forthwith, and in this boun;eous Prairie
Land, begin their lives anew. We will
guarantee the happy result.

~ Sick Headache Remedy.--A remedy for I

III Sick Headache Remedy.-A remedy for
the sick headache, which has been recentiyohered
the public is attracting great attention, not only
by reason Of the very satisfactory testimonials 10
its efficacy which have been volunteered by many
who have been benefited by il, but also because
there are SO great number OF people who are af
Aicted with the distressing complaint, for which
no medicine has before been made public. DIR.
Eastman, who discovered the efficacy of his "rem-
edy," is physician in this city, in high standing
with a large practice. He is physician in whom
great confidence is placed; and we do not wonder
that his remedy for very common disease, which
has been so long needed, has attractedthe attention
ofall sufferers from headache who have heard Of il.
From our own knowledge Of DIR. Eastman's char
acter and practice, we have no doubt that the med
cine deserves the favor il receives, and that il will
prove TO be great benefit TO all who may give il
a trial.--Lynn Wews, December %, 1853.
