Several vessels had arrived frorri Ve

The train that left Vera Cruz for Ori
zaba, commanded by Col. Brisco, had
been attacked by a guerrilla force 400
strong. An express rider was immedi
ately sent to inform General Twiggs of
the fact, who despatched three compa

San Diego, but seeing• nothing of the

A letter recieved by the last arrival
states that a desperate fight took place
between Col Briscoe's command and
the guerrillas at Mantogordo, which re
sutted in the dispersal of the latter.—
Lieutenant Henderson and three of the
Georgia Volunteers were killed in the
fight.
A strong force of cavalry and infantry
left Vera Cruz on the 21st ult. to clear

General Cushing, with an escort of

On Sunday night a Texan Ranger,
named Adam Alsence, of Capt. Roberts'
company, was attacked by a number of
Mexicans in the suburbs of the city, and
killed. He was mangled in a brutal
manner, and the Texans, exasperated at
the cruel death of their comrade, sallied
into the streets the next evening, to the
number of fifteen or twenty, and pro
ceeding to the quarter where Alsence
was killed, took fearful vengeance upon
a party whom they found armed with
pistols and knives. Seventeen of the
Mexicans are reported killed, and for

ANECDOTE OF MR. CLAY.—Whilst Mr.
Clay was shaking hands with his friends
at the Governor's room, in New York, a
Democrat stepped forward arid holding
out his hand said, "there, Sir, is a good
Democratic hand, perhaps you may re
fuse it." "Certainly not," responded
Mr. Clay, nt the same time taking him
by the hand, "I came not to call the
righteous, but sinners to repentance."
JUDGE IRVINE.—We learn from the
Harrisburg Union that the committee in
the case of Judge Irvine, after the most
full and searching investigation, which
has lasted for several weeks, reported
in his favor, and the report of the com

This is the first case in which a charge
has been made against a Judge since the
adoption of the new Constitution.
