the common word catch acquired the slang meaning of hidden cost or qualification in 1885 so whats the catch probably dates from about that time also or soon afterward as it is scarcely an idiomatic turn of phrase at all but rather straightforward talk
Dickens was a euphamism for the Devil. So "it hurts like the dickens" is another way of saying "it hurts like the Devil". It's a very old phrase that dates back to Shakespeare's day. Shakespeare used the line " I cannot tell what the dickens his name is" in the Merry Wives of Windsor.
This phrase dates from somewhere in the 16th Century. Originally, it was a textile term - to "cotton" or "cotton well" referred to the success of the fibers melding together to form cotton cloth. Around the 16th Century, the phrase began to be used to mean "to be successful," or "to prosper" in reference to people and things. About the 19th Century, the phrase "to cotton to" began to see use, and meant "to be drawn to" or "to get along with." If you do not "cotton to" something, then you don't care for it. This phrase is particularly common in the South, where the cotton industry formed the basis for the economy for many years.
