NEW York, July l1.-Since the is
suance Of the order of Superintendent
Kelso last night, .orbidding the parade
Of the Orangemen tomorrow, the ex-
citement and apprehension which pre-
vailed throughout the city is somewhat
abated. Prompt action on the part Of
the Mayor and Superintendent in the
matter meets with the general approval
of all, and it is believed that no disturb
arce whatever will take place.
JERSEY CITY, July 1.-THE excite
ment here with regard to the Orange
parade and riot which is expected is in
tense, There is no doubt whatever but
that the Orangemen of Jersey City in
tend to parade, and the greatest alarm
exists in consequence. The Hibernians
make no secret of their intentions to
attack the Orangemcn in case the pa
rade should take place. Their prepar-
ations for the expected affray are said to
be very complete. Meetings Of the sey-
eral Hibernian societies were held last
evening at which the strongest threats
were made against the Orangemen.
Several Of the Hibernian organizations
have received orders to assemble tonight
and remain over night under arms to be
in readiness Tor w Wednesday. The Uni.
ted Irishmen will also turn out num-
bering several thousand.
Last night Mayor Hall, through the
Superintendent Of Police, issued pro-
clamation iorbidding the Orange parade.
The situation has become so dangerous
that the authorities thought it best not
to invite conflict by allowing the parade.
The Superintendent in his proclama-
ton says he has been applied to by the
Grand Master OF the Orange Lodges in
the United States to give police protec-
ton to the celebration, by procession
through the principal streets and
avenues Of New York city on the 18th,
lust in honor Of the battle Of the Boyne
and the surrender which was its con-
sequence. These several commemora'
tive victories on the soil Of Ireland by
one English King over another, won
nearly two centuries ago, engendered
National Offences which have descend
ed from generation to generation with
increasing acrimony, and large bodies
of our citizens participate in this feel
ing from all parts Of our community.
The Superintendent has been legally
advised that he should not aid any
street celebrations that involve feuds and
animosities belonging solely to the his
tory Of other countries than our own,
and which experience has proved to en-
danger the public peace, abroad and at
home. The proposed celebration, as is
obvious to every one, belongs to the last
named class. The Superintendent then
refers to the loss of life which followed
last wears procession and states that
some of the leaders Of the Orange Socle-
ties expressed an opinion to him that
collision this year, was inevitable
After referring to the fact that legal de,
cisions have settled the question that
the parading Of streets by processlo' s ls
a mere matter of usage and not mat
ter of right, closes as follows:
You are therefore ordered to prevent
the formation or progression ofthe pub,
lie procession for the 18th inst, alluded
70 and Of all professions under the pre-
tense of target purposes. You will also
ON that day impartially keep all streets
cleared from groups and assemblages OF
every class of citizens whether sympa,
tbizing with or against the proposed
procession, or if they are lawlessly dis
, ,sed. You will also promptly cause
all such persons to be arrested as are
in the thoroughfares using threatening
or disorderly language or melting a
breach OF the peace in conte npt OF the
State statutes on that subject.

It has been decided by the Oransemen
to hold their parade in Jersey CITY
where, under the protection of the mill
tary and Governor Randolphs proeia'
nation, they think they can proceed 10
safety. So many reports are c'rcu,ateo
that It is hard to discover what really is
