It is wit h great grief we observe that the contagious
fever io Galway has assumed a most malignant
type—that it is spreading to a most alarming de-
gree, notwithstanding the advance •f the season,
and that the most dreadful apreliensions are enter-
tained by the inhabitants of that town.
[From The Warder of Saturday last, the !lot iastaat
On Monday last a meeting •f Delegates from
the different Orange Lodges of Ireland, met at
Haves's, Dawson street ; the Right Hon. Earl
O'Neil, Grand Master, in the Chair.
The meeting was for the purpose of discussing
the propriety of recommending a discontinuance of
the periodical ceremony of dressing, or decorating,
the statue of King William, in College-green;
but, particularly, oil the approaching 4th of No-
vember, the annivereary of the birth of the glorious
Assertor of Civil and Religious Liberty.
It appears that the individuals deputed to the
Meeting, were led to expect a communication from
Government on the subject of their consideration,
but having received none, they did not conceive it
their duty to adopt any influential proceeding rela-
tive to an act of political testing. not more portico-
larly attributahle to the brethren of the Orange
Association, than to all loyal Protestants, and the
friends of the Constitution in general, to whom the
memory of King William must ever be dear and
precious. They felt that to dictate on this subject to
their countrymen and fellow-subject►, who, in the
days of the Old Vol unteers.wheu Protestants and Ro-
man Catholics uniting in loyal sentiment. and a just
and common appreciation of the principles of public
liberty, joined iii decorating the statue, would be
an assumption in which they could not feel war-
ranted, without sorne superiorauthorily, inviting them
to du so. The annual celebration of an event which
led to the establishment of the prevent revered and
illustrious dynasty on the throne of these realms. and
that constitutional liberty which has rendered Great
Britain pre-eminent among the nations of the earth,
they could not contemplate as offensive either to loyal
feeling r.r to the Public Authorities of the country;
particulorly, as the °Om/moot' the fir►t Low Olb•
cm of the Crown, and recently the Lord Chan.
