PRIVATE CORRESPONDENCE.
DUBLIN, Jima 7.
The orders of the Grand U.ange Lodge in Dublin,
equivocally as they were worded, have been very intelligible to the
persons is connexion with the Association. There have been, aimee
the latter part of last month, several preparatory meetings tut the
grand display on t►e 12th, and several murders have beets tee eon.

with the Orangemen, the police being, as you are aware, for the
most pan Protestants of the lower orders. I have had an oppurts.
pity of seeing a letter from a chief constable of police in the tti v,
stating with great exultation that it was determined to hive 'be

The alarm on the approach of the anniversary is generri throust -
out the north of Ireland. Repeated calls have beets made upon the
Magistrates of Belfast, whether succeaslul we have yet to team.
At Newry a formal caution has been issued by the Magistrac. 1 of
that town, cautioning all persons against joining its the procasstutia.
In Lurgan the Orangemen hail a preparatory meeting on the I.:,
but the Catholics appear to bate been quiescent, and nu misthief

were desperately hurt, and a woman killed in an endeavour to „Tu.

police and the Orangemen at liotrisukane, county Topper•ry,

is in a high degree alarming. It does nut appear that any p. tat
engaged in these fatal occurrences have been arre,ted. ,tooth r

called Miltown. In Roicommon, a very serious outi age ha. be-

At Swadlinbar, county of Cavan, there was tremendous rioting u •
Monday last, between the Orangemen and Papists. At Glensv),
in the county of Armagh, there was a very serious stair between
the Papists and policemen, who are described as bring Orangemen.
I might extend this detail, but enough has been said to show yust
the condition of the country, in each of the four provinces. Thr • r
is manifestly a general move among the Orangemen, as if ,they

Duke of Northumberland's Government is not unntintltul
of the crisis. Upwards of 2bo letters were dispatched last mgt.,.

I dada, however, whether the processions can be prevented by the
law as it stands. If Ido not niiutmember, the question was
brought to a legal issue in the county of Londonderry a year or two
ago, when it was admitted, I think, that there was nothing c. ii.
trary to law in these public exhibitions. The shot t and dects;sl
way would be to proclaim the insurrection, or, it needful, nisittal
law. Any law is better than a panisan magistracy, and a polite It
league with the Grand Orange Lodge.
The Duke of Northumberland, with Lord Erroll, Sir W. W.
Wynn, and a large party, will set oat from Kitiptown in the Kasai
yacht to.niorrow morning, on a coasting excursion. Ile will 'pacts
at Carlingford, and it is thought will proceed to Belfast.
Mr. Radford Roe is again before the King's Bench this Jay, to

The Clare registry will conclude on Thursday next. The Barr-

when the writ will issue, and probably appear in the t:riaciie tot'
