ORANGE OUTRAGES-T WELFTH OF JULY.  -----s,-(Priam the Dublin Post of Saturday last. ) The ext.:ll:o'v precautionary arrangements adopted by the iiO.t.lermiacrit have net Wholly prevented outrage; oa the TweirtV, bill the presence of the Constabulary nod the Military in th 03.0 diot:icts, lieretof;:re most remarkable for disturLance, has been the Means of sa6ng the country frotz/ those tangariro ix ry collisions and sties of bloodshed which have so invariaT, ~tlll ,54 from the factious displays on the Ordege anniversary.

OtittOgrf itfiFfe tvcre, Itoirever, as will be men by On account; which Wife .airea-dy reathcd us ; but the violence or the Orangemen was restfaine4 by the troor and police, before it ltt,4 led to bloodshed. We 8101 now give a summary of the communiCittlons which have reached tig tb:LY .12.—The Orange rhea commenud, on Saturday evening fit.iff, It/ displaying their sigma/ for insult 9range flag, inscribed " No Surrender," from the top of a building, of a moat varied character, as it serves alike for court-house, mailiet-hostAe, gaol, and church, occasionally. This insulting banner Wag gleen to the breeze amid the shouts of human beings, the noise of drown and fifes, and the pealing of the eliftreb bell. Last night was eihibited an effigy of the Rev. Thomas Maguire, The thing was eottiposed of all sorts of combustible matter, with shavings of timber, &c., stuffed into such clothes as a clergyman usually wears, anti which could hardly be attainable by the description of persons who were the Visible actors in the scene, being better than they wore themseiVes, It was set ott fire before a school-house that belongs and is attached tO the aut.& The scene that then ensued baffles description, The effigy Was dragged and kicked up and down the street some half dozen times, till not a vestige reriiaincd for the Orangemen to wreak their vengeance on, accompanied by shouts of " No-Popery," &c. The drums, fifes, and shouting, continued till five this morning, to the total prevention of the rest of her Majesty's loyal subjects. The ringing of the bell did not cease at that time, but sail continues, and will continue till after twelve to-night. I fear much the doirsetpienCel of this. PETTIGO, Mit 12:—A report having spread yesterday that the Orangemen intended to burn the priest's house, some two or three hundred men, !tons a distant part of the parish, were marching into town, A 5 they said, to protect it, when they were n1C!„. by that gentiellan's Curate, the Rev. Mr. Hamel, who, with runic difficulty, persuaded them to re. turn to their homes. Too much praise cannot be given to Mr. Hamel for his timely interference, as, had they gr,t into the town, the consequences would have been most awful. . They were bringing ladders, &c. &c., to tear down the flags, ann and the Orangemen were loading their arms to oppose them. Mr. Haley, stipendiary magistrate for the county, arrived here about two o'clock yesterday, shortly after which the bell ceased tolling. The display of Orange sashes, ribbons, and flowers, was tery profuse. There were about 200 country Orangemen so dressed in the town, but no procession was attempted. I am sure it would have been otherwise if the stipendiary magistrate was not here. There were three of the Orange lads lodged in the guard-house last night for violating the law— one for firing a shot in the street, saying he would send the Pope to hell.
