July Is, 49,.
The riots in Moo York affected me ter
Iibly. Viewed from any standpoint. the
occurrence wuz deplorable. Two hundred
Dimocrats shot drown by the brootal
military who viii never rally 70 the polls
agin, and will never agin repeat their
votes, no matter now high the price And
ali this becoZ them undetermined sons NV
Erin insisted on the rite TO dictate who
shood and who shood not parade the
streets Nv ther city NV Moo York. I hev,
however, the cOnS0lashen nv known that
IL won't make any difference in onr ma
jority in that city. There is ships os tAe
sea bringin more Irishmes, who Kin be
made voters in four hours after they land,
and eff no more comes, them eZ is here kin
vote oftener. 1t may be necessary to fur
rish some Nv enI hosses and buggies that
they may get around to the polls faster,
but that @iA &c all
he'd my little trouble on the same day.
1t SO happened that the children Of our
Charch he'd pitched upon the 18th Nv
July, ez the day for their picnic and it so
happened that Pollock heyin a lot NV
damaged yaller calico, Deckin Penniback-
er bought it tn make resets for the chill
dren, and n sash 1or myself. who wuZ to
cheef marshal EN-. The mite afore we re
ceived letter from Dennis O'Shough-
messy, Patrick O'Brien, and Shamus o.
DAILY, the three Irishman who live at the
Corners Station, that they understood
that it wuz the intensh1n NV the Protes-
tants NV the Corners, 20 celebrate the bat
tie NV Boyne with an Orange procession
They gave notice thai It had better be
abandoned, for they wood not hev their
feelins injured. After the warnin eff blood
should be shcd, they could not be held
responsible.
No one IN the Corners-thst l. the rs
tives-hcd ever heered Nv the battle NV
the BoyHe or, knowed wot "Orange "
meant. and 50, tlkin it ez ajoke. no attcn-
shuu wuz paid TO it, for no percesshun
he'd ever been mobbed at the Corners, but
niger processhunS. But next mornin
when the procesShun moved, a volley ny
stones greeted Us. wuz ridin proudly at
It's head, on BaScom's mule, and enc we'll
directed rock hurled me senseless to the
ground, and en- the shepherd was smitten
the sheep wuz scattered. Dennis T.
Shoughnessy told us that the feelins Nv
the Catholic citizens nv the Corners shoCd
never be outraged SO long ez he he'd
strength to handle club or heave a stun.
Some w euE people wuz indignant, but /.
the chief Sufferer, wuz not, / he'd lived
in MOO York, witch is mostly Irish, and
KNOWN ther idiosyncracies, WIZ willin TO
forgive en- Their amt no better Dino
Gratis anywhere than these men. and no
rock kin be throwed witch Sin make Die
do anythin agin that organiZasheH ~
~ich these is the back bone.
And when | got apaper and read Nv the
riots in Moo York lite beamed onto me-
Ez the Catholic Irishmen don't like the
orange color, on the 18th Nv July, won
der that the threewe hey cQntented them
selves with merely heaven rocks at US
IL Is not to be expected that they viii al
low any demonstraShen wich hurts their
feelins to be made without an attempt To
suppress il. The ardent son Nv Erin is
an ilnpuisive creacher who deli:es in hevin
his own way. They hev taken charge w
the city of Moo York ard they ought
not 10 be interfered with, nor viii they
be-
see but one way TO prevent such diff
iculties hereafter, and that plan submit
70 the consideration Of the American pep
PIE, ez follows:
Let al ordinance he passed BY the Com
mon Couucil ~ Moo York, providing for
the appointment; " committee who shell
hes sole centrOtuv processiors and all
public displays, sed committee to consist
Nv ten Catholic priests, Nv Irish BIRTH,
and ten Catholic laymen, also NV hish
birth. To this committee all these mat
tiers shall be referred They shell have the
power TO say wat societies shell, and wat
societies shell not parade. and also wat
banners, cclors and Insignia shell be dis
phyed, what icons shel be PLAYED. and
or what DAYS sieh displays shell be made
W course this committee wood be
liberal. They wood never object to the
eelebrashen Nv the Fourth Nv July. (for
that commentaries a triumph over Brit
ish tyranny pertikelerly ef the process
sion wood pledge themselves 10 GARY the
green flag and hev Their bands play Irish
national airs, only.
The followin, I suppose, wood be the
tenor Nv most Nv the answers to applica-
sAens for the privilege of paradin:
To the Superintendent .tr-h st. .M,tao-
dist Sunday Sl;oo,
Permission refused On the route pro-
prosed for the procession lives three hun

shens. ez none NV en- viii DC granted

This wood save a riot and bioodshed,
fur Nv course the procession couldn't take
place, and the Irish people couldn't be Of
Tended, onless it wuz at the presumption
