Yes Clip should do what you want, it can also be achieved via an
intersect, although that will merge the attribute tables in the overlap
and possibly cut polygons.

I wrote a modification to the old geoprocessing tool called an extract
which is very similar but is a select by overlap instead of a cut. It's
very similar to v.extract in grass. I can post if that's what you need
and maybe we can get Carson to add it to ftools.
