ARRIVAL OF THE BRITTANIA.
Insurrection quieted in Ireland.
BosToN, Aug. 26th 1848.
The anxiously looked for Steamship
has at length arrived. She reached her
ivharf about eleven o'clock. She sailed
from Liverpool on the 12th inst., and
therefore brings seven days later intel
ligence from England, Ireland and the
Continent.
Her intelligence, in a political and
commercial point of view, is highly im
portant.
The state of affairs in Ireland has not
materially changed, though every day
seems to lessen the propability of any
serious outbreak.
No serious disturbance in Ireland has
occurred since the sailing of the Cam
bria.
Numerous arrests continue to be
made.
William Smith O'Brien was arrested
at the Rail Road station at Thales, on
Saturday evening last, whilst in the act
of procuring a ticket for Limerick,
where, it is said, he intended to take
refuge among his friends.
Immediately after his arrest, he was
marched to Bridewell, and subsequent
ly was conveyed•to Dublin, and lodged
in Kilmaiuham Jail.
Alter O'Brien's arrest, he is said to
have expressed himself satisfied of the
hopelessness of accomplishing his ob
ject, and that ho was induced to leave
his retreat in the mountains, because the
further he went the people seemed to
fear to harbor him, or to hold any com
munication with him.
He is said to be cheerful, and his fam
ily is allowed to nave free access to him,
Other friends are permitted to converse
with him in the presence of the Jail au
thorities.
There does not appear to have been
any serious disturbance since the Cam:
bria sailed ; and according to the En
glish accounts it seems quite improbu•
ble there should be any so long as the
government continue its present attitude
of repression.
Mr. Cern, Mr. Berger, ship broker Mr.
Nolan, of the United States, and Rich
ard O'Gorman, for whose arrest three
hundred pounds is offered, on attempt•
ing to escape froni the country, were
arrested by the coast guard, after they
had crossed the Shannon in an open
boat.
The Irish accounts say that the South
k rife for rebellion, and only waiting for
leaders. That the disaffection is not
crushed, but that when the troops are
in their winter quarters then the mis
chief will commence in good earnest.
Until then the leaders have determined
to remain passive. •
Time is no news of any moment
from the Continent. Trade is dull in
England, and grain and cotton both de
clining.
, Tun CHOLERA.—The European papers
announce the appearance of the Cholera
ht Vienna. In St. Petersburg and Con
stantinople it is subsiding rapidly.
From a lite number of the Military
Medical Gazette, It appears that since
the appearance of the epidemic in Rus
sia, there were seized at St. Petersburg
from its first appearance, the 30th of
June, to the 21st of July, 19,772 per ,
sons, of whom 4831 recovered, and 11 ,
068, died. In the whole of Russia
since the first appearance of the Cholera
the 28th of October, 1846, to the sth
of July 1848, 290,318 persons were seiz
ed with the epidemic, and 1 i 6,658 died.
On the 28th of July there were at St,
Petersburg 2396 cholera cases, in the
course of the day 137 fresh eases oc
curred; 211 recovered and 82 died, 45
of whom were in their own dwellings.
On the 29th there were 2240 sick-132
now cases ; 188 recovered and 68 died.
On the 30th there remained 2116 eases
under treatment.
CHEERING FROM WESTERN VIRGINIA.-
The Charlottsville Advocate learns from
a gentleman who has recently travelled
extensively through Western Virginia,
that the best spirit prevails among the .
friends of Gen. Taylor. The calcula
tion among them is that if Eastern
Virginia does as well for Taylor, as for
Clay, the changes in Western Virginia
will give the State to "Old Rough and
Ready." We can assure our Western
friends that Eastern Virginia will give
Taylor at least 2500 to 3000 majority,
where Clay's was only from 50 to 100.
FREE SOIL IN LOUISIANA.
A Free Soil meeting was held in Low
isiana,
in the city of New Orleans, on
the 16th of July. The members of it
have called another meeting and intend
to keep the ball a moving! Old Zack
himself will be found with the Free Soil
party after he gets to the White House!
Popular vote of Indiana.
The Indiana State Journal says, that
although the Locofocos, by the manner
in which they have districted the State,
have carried a majority of the Legisla
ture, the POPULAR VOTE is largely in fa
vor of the Whigs, and is certain for
Taylor and Fillmore in November !
(Yr General Taylor—says a contemporary—
never chewed tobacco—never drank any rum—
never smoked a cigar—never owed a man a
cent—never was sued—never sued nny man
himself—never was dunned—never dunned any
body—never lost a battle—and never surren
dered!
The Free Soil Humbug.
It would appear that all the Abolitionists are
not to be duped by the free soil "movement."
The Buffalo Commercial contains a strong pro
test against it, communicated for that paper,
from which we take this characteristic passage:
" When the Abolitionists were every
where abused and hunted, and like earn
est and honored men, resorted to the
press to defend their principles and char
acter, who sanctioned by his CASTING
VOTE the plunder of the public mails of
anti-slavery papers, and prayers and
petitions and earnest entreaties for the
robbed and outraged slave Martin
Van Buren. Who, at a subsequent
pe
riod, when Amos Kendall had authori
sed similar base thefts and outrages to
be perpetrated on the mails, permitted
him to remain in office, under the caress
es and smiles of executive office Mar
tin Van Buren. And not one word dis•
avowing those shameless arid high han
ded outrages against the rights of the
North, and the sanctity of the seal, has
he ever uttered."
lOWA ELECTION
Our letters and papers from lowa admit the
election of Shepard Lefler as a member of Coit
gfess front the Second District; butat the smile
time positively assert that Daniel F. Miller, whig
is elected from the First District. There was,
it seems, some doubt whether that district of
country in which the Mormons are located,
would be organized so as to allow their vote to
be given. The Locos were afraid that the Mor- ,
mons might take it into their heads to vote the
Whig Ticket, and this made them cautions
about the matter; but it appears from the De.e
Moines Valley Whig that the Mormons dill

BUDD HARSBARGER, of Centre Co. to Miss
MARTHA CURRAN, of Huntingdon Co:
[Cottitnitnicated.)
DIED,
At the reqWence. of his uncle, Mr. George
Jackson, of Jackson township, in this county, on
Monday August 211(h, JOSEPH JACKSON, a
Corporal of Company D. t Ith' Infantry, U. 9. A.
aged 22 years.
The subject of this notice was left an orphan,
while young ; was raised and educated f.,y his
kind and affectionate uncle, whose care and at
tention continued to be extended to him,
in the
last scene of life. In common with the young
and ardent and brave of our land, he rushed td
his country's standard in the late war with Mex
ico, and there under the command of his gallant
Captain Irvin, participated in the scenes of
strife and blood that blotted the path of the
American Army from Vera Cruz to the city of
Mexico. At the National Bridge, at Contreras,
at Charubuseo, at el Molino and the city gates,
he was amongst the foremost in the angry surges
of the fight, and proudly shared with his com
panions in arms the unlading laurels it bestow
ed. But from amid those dangers he escaped
unhurt. From the hard storm of grape and
canister, from the leaden sleet of Musket balls,
from the hurricane sweep of round shot and shell,
from the impetuous charge, he escaped, to die
amid his friends and the scenes of his chidhood,
stricken down by the more deadly hand of dis
ease. Amongst all the missile of destruction
and engines of death, there was ,4 no kind mes
senger" to call his brave spirit hence; but the
battle ended and the peace of his country restor
ed, he sleeps calmly in the old place of graves,
where his kindred lie.
c , There is a tear for all that die,
A mourner o'er the humblest grave,
But nations swell the funeral cry,
And triumph weeps above the brave."
So rest you, young soldier ; beloved by friends,
acquaintances, and your gallant fellow heroes
in life—regretted and wept in your untimely
death. C.
