ties that have been described to You from this
altar to-day as the curse of our church, then
you will commit a crime against your God and
your country. BY disturbing the public peace
and resisting the constituted authorities, you
will commit most grieyous blunder by falling
into the very trap that Is laid for you. Let
those 0rangcmen alone. Let them severely
alone.
Mayor Hall, Superintendent Kelso, and
several members of Governor Hotfman's staff
have been at the police headquarters most of the
time to-day. Special policemen have been sworn
In TO remain at the station houses tomorrow
night, aud to be on reserve duty all day
Wednesday. The Orange procession will probas
bly, not number over 2000 persUus The line OF
march is known to the police and the committee
of Orangemen who have the parade in charge.
Ii is supposed that 1t will be on the west side
OF the city, probably In Broadway and Fifth
avenue, where there will be no opportunity for
firing on II from windows. A strong body of
police will march IN front and rear, and reserves
will be placed in the station houses nearest the
line of march. 1t is stated on good authority
that the Hibernians will parade on Wednesday
headed by Il man called Captain Cleary. Its
also said that the seventh, eighth, ninth,
twelfth, and seVenty-6rst regiments of the
national guards will be ordered to hold them
selves in readiness, at their armOries, to aid the
police if necessary to qucll any signs of riot ON
that day
Later. @zsupt, Eelso issued an order, forbid
ding both the Orange profession and target eX-
cursion of the ancient order Of lIiberniaus.
The parties comprising the target companies
represent that portion of the Irish Catholic ele-
ment which expresses its determination to OPP
pose the Orange display. Superintendent Kel-
so in his order, says that he has been applied to
by the grand master of Orange lodges in the
United States, to give police support to the
procession through the principal
streets and avenues of New York, in
honor of the battle Of Boyne. These several
commemorative victories of the soil on Irelandj
two centuries ago, engendered differences which
have descended from generation to generation
with increasing acrimony, and large bodies of
citizens participating in these feelings form Il
part of our community. The superintendent
has been advised that he should not aid In any
street celebrations that involve feuds and ami
mOSities belonging solely to the history of other
countries than our own, and which experience
has proved to endanger the public peace abroad
and at home.
1t is given out that armed preparations for
defence have been made by members of the pa
radlng lodges. Indeed, it is announced that
the procession appears to have been specially
organized beyond the magnitude Of any preyis
GUS one, and is emphasized with announcements
that apparently evince a determination to re-
sent, if not revenge, the c vents which attended
last years celebration; and some of its leaders

slider collision inevitable.
If this needless celebration should provoke
general disturbance, it would furnish an oppor-
tunity, always sought for by lawless and dam
gerouS classes of the community, to participate
in il and to carry the consequences so far as to
endanger the safety of persons and property.
In every subject matter for police discretionary
permission, the Inconvenience of the few ought
to be surrendered to the widest security for the
property and person of the greatest number.
This evening, before it was known that Su-
perintendent KelsO had issued the order, there
were largely attended meetings of the ancient
order of Hibcrnians in this city, Brooklyn and
Jersey City. Delegates of Irish societies held a
secret meeting at Hibernia hail. large crowd
collected outside, discussing the parade and
swearing they would break it up, no matter
what the priests said. At the inside meeting,
one member said there were $4,000 Irish vOlun-
teers, fully armed and ready to resist the Orange
parade
