The ORANGE PROCESSION yesterday passed of
quietly. 1t was escorted on its line of march by
such powerful and imposing body of police as
to be suggestive of serious apprehensions of an
attack; but there were no signs of belliger-
ent force at any point nor of any warlke de-
signs along the route. We are gratifed that
the affair went off so quietly as hardly to
awaken passing sensation, and we entertain
the hope that hereafter there will be no more
trouble in New York on account of these
Orange professions. Having gained their
point of equal rights, these Orangemen should
now advance on the line Of American citizen
ship on behalf Of civil and religious liberty
from the lower plane Of the 18th to the higher
and broader ground of the Fourth of July.
In short, on the nice question of American
citizenship and its duties and obligations,
these Orange parades and many other foreign
institutions here are superAuities of patriot
ism which it would be we'll to cast aside as
among the dead things Of the past

Our RUFFIANLY CONDUCTORS. The letter of
"a lady of the Nineteenth ward" published
in another column, giving an account of her
experience with q ruflianly conductor of the
Second Avenue Railroad Company, calls
timely attention to nuisance that sorely
needs abatement The conductors ON our
cars are proverbially insolent, impolite and
rufianly. Complaints are of daily occur
renee, but the railroad managers pay not the
slightest heed to the irregularities" of their
subordinates. All they care for is the dimes.
Their conductors can do as they like pro-
vided they turn in as many of the dimes as
possible. What we would advise the lady of
the Nineteenth ward to do is to bring an
action for damages against the company for
the unjustifable assault of which she COM
plains. Nothing brings down these corpora
tons SO rapidly as an assault on the purse.

ALL our latest news from Spain confirms the
opinion that the country is gradually falling
into the widest state of lawless confusion
The defeat of the government troops at Ripoll
by the Carlists is confirmed So, also. is the
rising of the Internationals at Alcoy, in Ali
cante. The Alcoy affair seems to have been
characterized by all the worst features of the
Paris Commune. Not only was the Mayor
killed, but his dead body was dragged through
the streets by yelling mob. similar fate
befell the Collector of Taxes. Several factories
were fred and reduced to ashes. At Mala-
ga, too, the widest kind of atrocities have
been committed The people have risen
against the municipality, and such is the help
lessness of the authorities that the Mayor of
the town in pure despair has rendered his
resignation. The government is full of
bounce; but of course it can do nothing. A
coup d etdt of vigorous and determined kind
Is the next sensation which we look for in
Spain. If Spain cannot save herself it will
be the duty Of the other Powers to take her in
hand. We do not much like holy alliances,
but any alliance which would save Spain from
Self-destruction mioht be blessing.

One or two things are demonstrated by this

clearly that they have not been paid such
