    CLEAR THE TRACK I
THEY COME! THEY COME!!
A LOCOFOCO EDITOR OUT FOR GEN. TAYLOR.
—The Vicksburg Whig states that the Missis
sippi Telegraph, published in Winston county,
and. hitherto a Cass paper, has hauled down its
old colors and raised the glorious banner of
TAYLOR and FILLMORE. The Vicksburg
Whig says that this is the third change in the
Mississippi press which it has recorded since
the nomination of Gen. TAYLOR, all of them fa
vorable to the old hero, whose generous bearing
to her sons, when placed under his command in
a foreign country, will never be forgotten or
neglected by that proud and chivalrous State.
AND ANOTIIER.-The Ranier, Republican,
heretofore the leading Locofoco organ in the
parish of Rapides, and in the northwestern part
of Louisiana, has struck the flag of Cass and
Butler, and has come out for "TAYLOR and
FILLMORE." This change, it is stated, will
have a powerful effect upon public sentiment in
the Red River parishes.
A DEMOCRATIC LEADER OUT FOR GEN. TAY-
Lon..—At a great meeting held at Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, to ratify the nomination of TAYLOR
and FILLMORO, Robert Jamison, Esq., a leading
Democrat, presided and addressed the meeting.
In flee course of his address he said he i 0 pre
ferred Taylor to all others, because he preferred
his country to his party. I believe him honest,
capable and faithful to the Constitution. Such
a man was Washington, and on such a man the
patriots of all parties may unite."
AN Ex -GOVERNOR AGAINST CAMS.-MARCI'S
MORTON, who was elected Governor of Massa
chusetts by the locofocos after they had run him
for 20 years, has come out against Cass for the
Presidency, and goes it strong for Martin Van
Buren.
MORE OF THE SAME. SORT!-John A. Bolles,
late Secretary of Massachusetts under Governor
Morton, and F. It. Gourgas, weigher and gauger
in the Boston Custom House, have both aban
doned Mr. Cass.
Mona 01 , THEM !—Thd Danville Register says:
, d We learn from authority on which we place
the utmost reliance, that R. R. Cralle, R. G.
Morris and Judge Wilson of Lynchburg, W. F.
Gordon of Bedford, and a leading Democrat in
Franklin, whose name we have forgotten, have
avowed their determination not to stand by the
Baltimore nomination, and that they will vote
for Gen. Taylor. We learn further that some
of these gentlemen have already taken the stump
for old Zack."
lE. Goes AsoTn. !--Nathaniel Morton,
eon of the Ex-Governor, and a delegate to the
late Democratic National Convention, has aban
doned Mr. Coss.
tires TORY COME—"TOO NUMEROUS TO MEN
TION."—The Carlisle Herald says—We had lots
of bold Straight-Outers at Henderson's Grove,
on the I th, besides several gallant soldiers who
fought under old Zack at Buena Vista. They
were perfectly wild with enthusiasm for the
o Old Man." The cause is going right in Old
Mother Cumberland !
A LOCOFOCO MEMUER OF CONGRESS OUT FOR
TAYLOR. -James E. Belser, of Alabama, (for
merly a Locofoco member of Congress from
Mr. Hilliard's district,) addressed a great Whig
Convention at Hayneville, (Ala.) on the 22d,
in powerful advocacy of the election of General
Taylor to the Presidency.
A POLK F.LECTOO of,. FOR GEti. TAY LOT,-
haae N. Arnold, a Polk elector in Illinois, has
declared his determination to support General
Taylor. lie is tired of the Locofoco party and
repudiates its principles.
Great Excitement in Cincinnati.
CINCINNATTI, Wednesday, Aug. 23.
There is a great excitement here to-day.—
Two Germans were on trial for a rape commit
ted on a girl 19 years of age. They were com
mitted to jail for a further hearing. A mob at
tacked the jail, and the officers fired from the
windows, killing three and wounding several.—
The mob had not dispersed at 9 o'clock, P. M.
They may succeed in getting the prisoners ; if
no, they will undoubtedly kill them.
Second Despatch.
The excitement still continues. The unfor
tunate girl is about twelve years old, and the
brutal violators of her person are two returned
volunteers from Mexico, Germans. The great
wall in front of the jail has been demolished.—
Four of the mob have been killed, and three
wounded. A large military force is now at the
disposal of the Sheriff.
Italy.
Among the news brought by the steamer
Cambria, we find the following from Northern
Italy.
From Turin a telegraphical des
patch announces that the Prov i sional
Government having been broken up,
Charles Albert, by the will of the peo
ple had been proclaimed dictator. A
slight engagement had taken place be
tween the Austrians and Piedmontese
on the 17th, in which the Italians were
at first successful in recovering their
former positions; but owing to rein
forcements arriving to their enemy, they
were obliged to abandon them.
The result of five days' hard fighting
has been the retreat of the Piedmontese
army under Charles Albert, before its
too successful and too numerous adver
saries. The Italian Monarch and his army
have abandoned the line of the Mincia al
together, and fallen back upon that part
of the glio, which, however it may
serve as a protection for the army be
hind it, still leaves freely open to the
Austrians the road to Milan.
The headquarters of the Piedmon
tese army were at Bozzolo, with a strong
division at Macereta on the Oglio. It
was reported that an Austrian division
was already at Cremona, which would
thus cut off the Piedmontese from Mi
lan, the road on which they are station
ed being, in fact, the high one between
Mantua and Cremona.
FOREIGN NEWS.
Arrival of the Steamship Cambria.
SEVEN DAYS LATER NEWS FROM EUROPE.
Insurrection in Ireland.
NEW YORK, Aug. 19, 1848.
The steamer Cambria arrived at her
wharf in Jersey city to-day, about 11
o'clock, bringing the intelligence of a
rebellion in Ireland.
The insurgents under their leader
O'Brien, commenced erecting barricades
in Balligany and were fired upon by the
government troops; and 12 killed.
O'Brien was wounded, and many on
both sides were also wounded. The in
surgents and O'Brien fled to the moon- i
tain of Tipperary resolved to die before' ,
they would permit themselves to be ta-
ken by the troops.
He was followed by hundreds of the
insurgents who also resolved to die in
the defence of their leader.
O'Brien and his followers are armed
with pikes and pistols.
Haplin, the Secretary of the First
League, has been arrested by the Gov
lernment authorities as the author of a
conspiracy to murder the police.
The news is conflicting and unsatis
factory. One account confirms the
above statement, while another says
that O'Brien has been traversing the
country in the vicinity of Mullinohone
surrounded by a body guard of several
hundred insurgents. His whole acts
are looked upon as treasonable, and the
troops will show him and his followers
no quarters.
At the last accounts, Smith O'Brien
and his followers were still in the Colli
ery Districts, between Silvenamore and
the village of Ballingary, which county
furnished considerable accessions to the
rebel ranks. This detatehment, in pass
ing the estate of Lord Hawarden, drove
off a considerable number of bullocks as
a supply to the rebels.
A large army is concentrated in the
disturbed districts, under the command
of Gen. Napier.
Intelligence has just been received
from Silvenamore that 3000 insurgents
had declared their determination to re
sist the troops.
Reinforcements are expected by the
rebels from all the surrounding districts.
On Thursday last, Patrick O'Higging
well known as the Irish Chartist Leader,
was arrested in his own house in Dub
lin. There was discovered an immence
number of gun stocks secreted in and
about his house.
Barricades were erected yesterday,
on the alarm that the cavalry were com
ing to take the town of Killarney.
Smith O'Brien was there at the time
and being at the head of a large num
ber of rebels, marched up to the com
manding officer, and asked him if he
had no such order, whereupon O'Brien
permitted him to pass.
On Sunday Smith O'Brien in compa
ny with . a French gentleman, of great
military and chemical skill, was
seen at Limerick.
O'Brien was seen on horseback on
Saturday with his knee tied up with his
hankerchief ; the blood was still flowing
from the wound he received in the fight
at Billangary.
A heavy reward has been offered for
O'Brien, Dillon, Doheny and Meagher.
The Sub-Inspector from Callon, with
from 40 to 50 police, proceeded to Ban
lagh Common in pursuit of O'Brien, and
found him ; but O'Briens cool conduct,
and the immense number of insurgents,
drove him off.
He called on Grave, told him of the
collision,
stating that he had been led to
believe that ten or twelve thousand men
were under arms in Tipperary to receive
him ; but upon his arrival, he found it
not correct ; said he had been betrayed.
He was alone and seemed much deject
ed.
The London Times says the insur
gents will not acknowledge their loss to
be over eleven or twelve killed.
The party in Cormack's house fired
altogether 250 shots, and each man a
good marksman, taking steady aim.
The Priests were busily engaged in
removing the dead.
Wilmer & Smith's Times says, under
postscript, that O'Brien's whereabouts
is not known, but it is supposed that he
is at the head of a very large body of
insurgents,
ITALY
The only news we hare from Italy,
report the affairs of Charles Albert in a
most desperate condition.
Later and Better Front Ireland.
The N. Y. Tribune of the :22d inst. contains
a letter front their secret correspondent in Dublin
containing the following exciting, and if true,
important intelligence. The substance of the
letter is as follows
DUBLIN, August 4, 1848.
The Patriotic newspapers here dare
not publish the truth concerning the bat
tle of Slievenamon.
From all we can learn, the people
have achieved a great victory.
Gen. O'Donnel, Commander of the
Government forces was killed.
It is confidently stated that six thou
sand British troops have been killed and
wounded.
The road for three miles ►s covered
with the dead.
The third (Buffs) Regiment of Infant
ry, turned and fought with the People.
We have also the inspiring intelli
gence, that the towns of Kilkenny and
Limerick have been taken by the peo
ple.
The people of Dublin have gone in
thousands and are going in thousands
to assist the country.
Mr. John B. Dillon was wounded in
both legs. Mr. Meagher was wounded
in both arms.
It is generally expected that the peo
ple of Dublin will rise and attack the
Jails.
The Third Regiment at Athlone
fought with the people.
O'Brien hos 60,000 men around him.
Later.
A Telegraphic dispatch from Boston, dated
Aug. 25, says:
A copy of the Hallifax N. S. Sun of the 21st
inst., has been received here this morning, by
the Steamer Senator from St. John's, New
Brunswick. It contains news of a similnr tenor
to that published by the New York Tribune, in
relation to the disturbances in Ireland.
