A GREAT COMET ExPEcTED.-The Boston
Courier says that the attention of astronomers
in Europe has recently been turned toward the
subject Of great comet which appears to have
visited our system at intervals Of 292 years,
and, if the calculations of many scientific men
be correct. ought to make its next appearance
during the present year, not far from the month
of August or September. Mr.. J. r. Hind, an
astronomer OF London, has lately published a
work on this subject, and confidently predicts
the return of the celestial visitant in 1913.

ALABAMA-GES. TAYLoR.-We learn from
the Mobile advertiser that the Hon. VIM. l..
Yancy, late a delegate from that State to the
Democratic National Convention, has publish
ed an address in pamphlet form TO the people
of Alabama, which will be apt TO cause a
shaking among the dry bones of 'the faithful"
in that State. The address is very long-mak-
ing pamphlet of seventy three pages-and is
an CELEBRATE vindication of the course of the
writer, both in the convention and since bis
return, in opposing the election of Gen. Cass
10 the Presidency;
Mr.. Yancy exposes with great power the
|duplicity of the Northern Democracy on the
slavery question, re views with great severity
the tortuous course of Gen. Cass. and gives his
Nicholson letter scathing criticism. lie al
so deals some heavy blows upon his colleagues
| in the convention who are now supporting
Gen Cass, shows conclusively. that they are
violating their pledges and the instructions
contained in the resolutions of the State con-
vention which gave them the appointment, and
maintains that they are acting in bad faith TO
Southern interests. On the three delegates
who have assaulted him through the newspapers
TO wit Messrs. L. Sanford, John A. Winston
and ID. Solomon, Mr.. Yancy retorts with with
ering severity, and makes some revelations tina
will be anything but comfortable, we SHOULD
say, TO some of the gentlemen named.

CITY OF EVAN WILLIE:
WEDNESDAY MORNING, AUGUST so

CoSDrTIoN OF IRELAND.-The secret and
private correspondence from Dublin to the n.
Y. Tribune, turns out as we felt satisfied II
would, a great hoax, and false in every partic-
ular. No other paper in New York, nor else
where. as far as we know, gave credit 10 the
story, and most of them refused 10 publish IT,.
1t is certain now, we think, that Ireland is
doomed yet while longer to the CALLING chains
that has so long bound her; and although her
sons may not, and we hope will not, abandon
their attempts to free themselves from the OPP
preston which has so long crused them. yet
their efforts for the present can be Of no avail.
England is to watchful and too well guarded
TO be overthrown just now, unless Ireland bad
aid from abroad which she has not. BY the
Britannia we learn that O'Brien was arrested
OIL Saturday evening, at Thales Railroad, while
procuring a ticket for Limerick, where he ex-
pected refuge among his friends. The British
Government reigns supreme, and every day
lessons the probability OF an outbreak. Every
precaution has been taken TO put down all de-
monstrations.
O'Brien was lodged in the Dublin Jail. de
expressed himself as being utterly hopeless OF
accomplishing his object, as the people IN the
mountains seemed afraid 10 barber him. His
Wi fe and family are freely admitted to his pris-
ON to see him, and be seems perfectly cheer
full.

&C. We learn from the Louisville Journal
that the Hon. James Z. Belser, late promi-
nent Locofoco member of Congress from Ala
bama, has been nominated as an elector upon
the Taylor and Fillmore ticket in that State
In letter to the nominating committee lac asks
to be excused from serving as an elector but ex
presses his determination to give his support
as an individual 10 Taylor and Fillmore.

MARYLAND PoLITIcs.-According to the
Rockville, Md, Journal, Major George Peter,
formerly leader Of the Democratic party in
that county, intends giving Taylor barbecue
one day this week, TO which number of fine
speakers have been invited. The Major is per-
sonally acquainted with Gen. Taylor, and has
seen some service with him.
The same paper states that the Democrats OF
that county will, at their next meeting, pass a
resolution absolving F. p. Blair, Esq, from
any obligation he may suppose himself to be
under TO vote for Cass and Butler.

QIcK WoRK.-A Washington letter in the
Baltimore Sun SAYS
''ln many things our citizens move slow, in
Others they can be as quick as their neighbors.
A few evenings since at a social party young
gentleman selected for his partner in the dance
a young lady who he had never seen before
he was total stranger TO her. The waltz went
merrily round, admiration increased, and be-
fore the parties resumed their seats, the ques-
ton was popped, the offer accepted By the fail
one, aud il was determined that on the con-
clusion of the entertainment, the enamoured
pair should proceed TO the house ola clergyman
and be united in the bonds of wedlock. On
withdrawing from the scene, however. the plan
was frustrated by the want of license which
could not be there obtained, and one or two
other ct cetcrGs. 1t was deferred until the
next evening, when the bissful pair, attended
BY happy friends, presented themselves al the
altar and were married Well might the bride
exclaim Immediately afterwards. Vel, ioho
rould.hdUe thought this time last euening, that
at this hour should be a married lady,
Prosperity attend them
This may bevery romantic and all that sort
of thing, but we cannot think it is a mode OF
crossings partner for life; tina: is to be either
applauded or followed.

The TELEGRAPH.-We have all along been
in hopes to be able to make use Of the Telegraph
in receiving notices of the markets, foreign
news, and other items of interest TO our read
ers, and it was to be in situation 10 do this
the more efFectually that we commenced the
publication of daily paper. We hoped that
patronage sufficient would be extended TO us
to admit of our taking advantage of this and
every other means TO furnish early intelligence
TO the public; bnt Notwithstanding the en-
couragement Of a few friends, who were most
earnest in their solicitations to have us COM
mence daily paper, we now find 1t out oil our
power to make use Of the the Telegraph at all
Notwithstanding we publish the largest daily
paper in the State, and one containing more
reading matter than many Of the larger city
dailies, and al price that places ii in the pow
er of every one TO take it, we have not now
over two hundred subscribers, and since the
first day it was issued we have been compelled
10 sustain il at loss to ourselves. Such being
the case our friends will at once see the ute
impossibility Of our encountering further dit
ficulties. II we made the most trifling use OF
the telegraph the cost would eat up uH our dali
" subscriptions, and large portion oil our
weekly subscriptions also; and certainly no
one expects US to make sacrifice that will i'll
a very little time strip US Of the means TO oper-
ate at all. But our merchants and business
men should be in possession of all the news
Of foreign and domestic markets, &C., every
morning reported up to the latest hour of the
day previous, in order TO enable them TO COM
uete with Others and to save them from crafty
specula,ors of the larger cities, who are ever
ready TO take advantage, and we yet hope this
NAV be done. Several Of our merchants with
whom we haEs talked on the subject have ex'
pressed their Willingness TO subscribe literally
10 fund to enable the papers TO make use oI
the telegraph, and others no doubt Will do SC
when they learn that without such aid 1t will
tie impossible for the papers to do any thing
This is the way in which the Indianapolis pa
lers and the papers Of other small cities arf
enabled to publish telegraph news, and the
only wav. and unless those of our citizens who
are most interested in the matter adopt some
such plan, the telegraph will be of very little
use to them. We hope those interested vii
think ever the matter.
