5000 Orangemen will march on that dsy,
equipped to defend themselves from attack.
New YoRK, July 9.-The threatening at
ntude assumed by the Irish Catholics toward
the orangemen has been thought of suffi-
oient importance by Archbishop MoClosky,
TO induce him 30 do all in his power to pre-
vent the outbreak. he notified the clergy
to speak OF the coming denomination ct
each mass today, and advise their consrs-
cations to abstain from any overt act, and
to allow the Orange procession to pass on in
peace. Mayor Hall asserts that such msas-
ures have been taken to prevent the riot,
that it is o physical impossibility, yet il is
known that several Hibernian Clubs have
made arrangements for target shooting,
and intend to meet the procession OF Orange
men.
Pursuant to instructions of Archbishop
McClosky, the Catholic clergy Of this city
delivered, to-day, ct all shs churches and at
all masses, appeals TO their congregations
not to interfere in any way with the orange
men next Wednesday. The appeals seem
to have had a good effect on the Irish Oath
olics generally, but the Fenian element
which combines in its ranks q vast number
of ancient Hibsrnians, seem far from qui-
eted. ..r.
HUDSON, July 9.-Ths Catholic rebellion
in this city has assumed no new phase to-day

him to understand that they were still firm
in their determination not to allow the
church to be opened till their grievances
were corrected and Father O'SallivAn re-
called from the parish. Mass was celsbrat,
cd ct the priests residence, at which less
than thirty persons were present, mostly
