We have now before us a circular from Mr. James Verner,

the Secretary of the Grand Lodge in Dublin, date.: the
27th of last month, and addressed to the different lodges
throughout Ireland, inducing a resolution, unanimously
adopted at a Meeting of the Grand Lodge on the 21st,
sanctioned by Lord O'Neill, the postifi.x morimes of the
Associatiem, and recommending, " that in consequence of
the evils which have arisen from the erroneous views which
many persoes have taken of the motives and conduct of the
Orangemen of Ireland, and of the intention and tendency
of the processions, which have übually taken place en the
14th of July, in memory of the glorious Revolution, the
Grand Orange Lodge feel anxious to evince publicly their
desire to promote tranquillity, and to take from the ill-dis-
posed story excuse for their misconduct, and therefore re-
solve that no public procession of the Orange Association shall
be made on the 12th of July next, and their Grand Secre-
tary is instructed to co►nu:unicate this resolution to the se-
veral Grand Masten." This proceeding is creditable to
the Assembly from which it originated. These annual
processions were always attended with alarming out-
rages, and constantly with the loss of lives. The
Orangemen ought to know, that William the Third,
whose memory they profess to celebrate, was a warm friend
to toleration— that his life was passed in opposition to the
bigoted and haughty Louis XIV., by whom the Kdict of
Nantes, affording the free exercise of their religion to the
Protestants of France, was faithlessly revoked, and the
" iLagonailee,- and persecutions of every sort, mercilessly
let loose on that unoffeneling body. William came over

on the invitation principally of the great Whig families, to
establish the rights of conscience. sal freedom, political
and religious, in this country, which the bigoted and
wretched James sought to destroy—blessings which were
finally secured by the Revolution of 16S8. The Treaty of
Limerick, it is true, was violated, and new proscriptive
Statutes passed against the Catholics, under William and
Mary ; but both were notoriously opposed to the Monarch's
feelings. The Convention would have been kept sacred,
and the Irish people left in peace, if the Parliament of
England, IVhigs and Tories, did not join to prevent both,
and William had to give a reluctant sanction to the viola-
tion, anti the monstrous code of new penalties framed by
the contending zeal of the two parties. Burnett, the most
authentic historian of that day, so states it expressly. The
Orange Associations, therefore, in making the tolerant
William the patron of proscription, coi iiiii it the grossest in-
justice on his memory. The discontinuance of these pro-
cessions, which never passed without new contests and
murders, will be one great step towards the tranquillity
of Ireland—a happy cuusuunnatiun, for which the illus-
trious Nobleman at the head of thstttiovernnu•nt has la-
liou:ed so lung and ro assiduously.
