The signiil- eauce of the day In there eyes 1s derived from the Yivtory of Wiham of Orange, won near Drogheda lin 16,0 over James 11, the expelled King of | Great Britain, who commanded an army com- i mainly of Irish Catholics, fighting for the Stuart dynasty and the predominance of tue Catho- he religion. This event the Orangemen have jong | been used to celebrate, and their celepration has | features that are especially disagreeabie to their Oathoiic neighbors Riois have frequently occurred in consequence in the oid country, and Orange pro- cessions are now prohibited by Jaw in Great Britaia | and Jreiand. Last year the procession in thts city was altacked by some Irish Catholica, and con- sid rabie bloodshed occurred. It 19 said that the ession Lhis year will be unusually large and that th Orangemen aud Catholica are prepared for desperate ughiing. in this case the dnty of the authorities 1s plain. The Orangewen have a iegai right to their proces- sion, No law forvids it, unless \t be the universal law of charity laid down in the Gospel, eroise O; Vis right they must be protected. No mat- ter what vanuers they bear or what music they | play, thew antagonists must not be aliowed to moiest ten. ‘They have the same right to maniiest ther cpinions and feelings in this way that a citiseas bave to noid pubile meetings, to Wear suc a style of costume as they may desire and to express irecly Whatever opinions and ideas they may encertain, Last year the attack upon them Was sudden and un- expected, and there was no preparation for it on the partof tne police, This yoar itis not so. The fall magnitude of the danger is understoud, and it can be adequately provicted for. No ment for the neglect of this duty can be OPi. drawn ym the fact that the banners and music of the Orangemen are such as to ijacito distarbance. ff the law gave authority to pronibit the procession _ it nt be exers clsed; put it does pot. Neither can the duty be neglected because the Orangemen are, in a cer- tain degree, aD Association ounnected with British polliics alone and having no proper relation to tho affairs of this counwy. ‘he simpie truth that under our laws Uey wave a right to hold @ mecting and to walk-through the streets, with sach colors and such music as they may choose, puts all these con- siderations entirely oat of view and leaves nothing for the authorities to do but to protect the proces+ siou and reider a riot Impossible. A great deal may also be done towwards the pre- servation of the peace by the influence of the Catholic Clergy; and we are confident that this in- fluence Wlil be strenuously exeried in the right direction. Yesterday they warned their peopie to keep away from the procession and to have no part in any unlaw.ul procecdiugs; and thus beforehand they have removed more than half the dangers of the day.

D. W., that “James IT, at his accession publicly professed Catholic prinei- ples, and published an order giving liberty of con- seience to all his subjects.” James had professed Catholic principles long before coming to the throu and he did not publish his Declaration of Indul- gence till long after; on the contrary, he tried hard, during the early part of his reign, to continue the persecution of Protestant Dissenters, provided he could procure freedom for those of his own Church. It was only when he found that to be impossible ‘that he procinimed freedom of worship to all denom- iInattons alike, It 1s true, as stated, that the King directed a collection to be taken up inthe churches for the rellef of the exiled Huguenots of France, and that £63,000 Were 80 taken up, But “R, D.

It ts further true that the said Dee Glaration of Indulgence was utterly illegal in the opinion. of every respectable judge and lawyer in England, and that it was so solemnly declared to be by the English Parliament. The statutes of tue realm were clear upon the subject, and the King undertook to dispense with the whole effect of these staiutes. ‘The whoie action was illegal, the protest of the seven bishops was a respectiul petition, and James’ conduct in imprisoning them was @ bigh- handed outrage. It is ‘rue, to a certain extent, that William entered London in the midst of burning Catholic chapels and desecrated altars; but “it.

Not at all from any regard tain party in tie louse of Lords, headed by the Hari of Danby, desired to declare Mary alove the Sovereign, as the direct successor of her father. Subsequeatiy, after Mary's own wishes became known, this party abandoned 11s position, and voted that the throne was vacant. What "kD, W.”? means by the following pas- sage I am at a@ loas to mmagine. Speuking of ire- land, he saya:—Kevolt in WLiiam’s davor began in the North aad was quiedly suddued. Derry capitu- latea, agreements were accepted and ratttiied, and would not be the cause of much rejoicing in after times but for Jawes’ displeasure at the terms.’’ Now, as mere prosaic matier of fact, the revolt in the North was not sutdued. At Newion Butler the Enniskilievers deieated James’ troops, and remained in almost undisputed possession of their district, until Schomberg came among them. Derry did not capitulate, but, as every schoolboy knows, sustained a terrific siege, Which Was finally raised by the ship Mouuatjoy breaking the boom across tie Foyie, The siatements of “R. D, W.’’ concerniug the Ba'tic of the Boyne are eitireily untrue, The dis- pre of numbers was not nearly as large as ie states it; the battle did not last anything like all day; many of James’ troops were French veter- ans, many of Willlain’s raw English recruits; the proposes of losses Was entirely the other way, and janes had Irish troops instead of French a3 a body guard, with the celebrated sarsfield at their . “R, D. W.” sneers at the feat of crossing the Boyne in the face of James’ ariny. 1s he aware of, or does he suppress, the fact that Schonberg, the first een of tne age, Counselied William uot to under- ake It? As to Limerick, tt is entirely untrue that William signed a treaty giving it liberty of con- acience, Which he broke in three weeks, Wilijam was in’ London when the treaty was made. His general, Giukell, signed it, and some disputes sub- sequently arose with regard to the effect of its pro- visions, Which the Hngush Paritament setiled in a manner Which did not suit some of the Irisu.

P, CONYNGHASL THE ORANGE PROCESSION AN INSULT. New York, June 10, 187. To THE Epiror OF THY HERALD: There is a potut you do not touch in any of your editorials on the expected Orange procession. Am Orange demonstration is like none of those others you mention. lt 1s of itselfabreach of the peace, or at least a challenge to a breach of the peace. AIg such processions are forbidden by the English gov- erament and should not be tolerated here; not bee cause English example 13 always good to follow, but becagse no body of individuals should be alio to make @ public demonstration insulting and meaut to be lusulting to a large number of our {ek low citizens. yp: In the St. Patrick's Day proceenic Irishmen cele" ory of a prate She memory great man whe civilized ayd Chrlstania fa oeend there- by Serene boon on al shucen alike, In their late processions the Germans had the good sense to cevebraie the peace with French, not thelr victories over them. colored population had their jubilee over the pas- si of ine fiiteenth amendment, &c. All those demonstrations aré not offeasive of themselves, bus tie Orange ceievrations are eminently and par.’ poseiy so. They commemorate civil siriie aud @ vattle Where tuey heiped the toreigners to defeat ame suljugate their Own countrymen, A band of men, members of a foreign secret political society, parad~ tug in the streets witu Orange banners, at tle musie oi such tunes as “Tne Poyne Water,” “Croppies, Lie Down,” &c., cannot de called a peaceful assem~ blage. Such men have uo right to ask the police ww aid and abet them in the commission of acts strongly. provocative of a street riot. Yours respectfuily, UN PARISIEN QUI AIMH Les IRLANDAIB, THE ORANGEHANS RE(OAD. “Mr. Thomas Robinson,” an Irishman, vhinks that there will be no riot; and that the excitemen® about it is a delusion, He bases this conviction om the absence of a proclamation from Mayor Hail, He is ofan opinion that the Orangemen have no claim upon America for any exceptional protection, and says:— Irishmen have-no more right here than Orange- men}—why, that is absurd. You can very easily an~ swer who the Irish are, but who are the Orangemen first? Ireland dentes them, England tries to deny them, and who are thoy? Inthe war of i776 Irish- men fought and won; th 1812 they fougat and won in oor Late civil war they fougut and fought well a1 won, Where were your few Orangemen? Where were they?

If you imauire of those Orangemen you wili find tuat very few if auy have served im the iaie war. Look at Irishmen, with one arm, one leg, an are prepared to fight again if necessary. why noi? They are all citizens, Are Orangemen No. Irishmen and Cathoiles celebraie the Fourth July and Wasnington’s Birthday, and take as muck trouble and spend as much money in so doing as any oiher peopie. Tuey respect and honor the dag they fought hard for. ny, I think them highly In sutied. Irishmen and their descendants are con- nected with thts country from its infancy, aud wi deny them or steal away their rights? I say countrymen and fellow citizens of America that am sorry that you are insulted thus, and I say agata that I ain oue man, a stranger in New York, C*i men belongiug to any society or organization, and I wi not be insulted by any Orangeinan or Engtish spy. Then, again, if there 18 a parade, | would advise my countrymen not tu insult any One; dou’t take the iniulauve; don’t go there to beim the way. Fathers and mothers, keep your little ones home; they may be wanied yet to fight for America. . A GEORGIAN ON TOE ORANGE CELEBRA~ TION. New York, July 9, 187 To THE EpITOR OF TNE HERALD:— Foreigners are permitted to have their celebration= of victories here of batiles that have been fought im the old countries. it was but a few years ago that we Southerners were not permitted to place a few flowers over the graves of our dear friends and rela- tives on a certain day, because taey gallantly fell im the cause for which they fougnt, We did not ask to ceiebrate “Bull Kun,” “Bail’s Blut,’ “Fredericks- burg’ or “Chanceilorsvilie,” yet | cannot see why we so-called rebels have not as much right to celebrate those battles as the Germans and Irish nave to cele brate their particular days, But as an Americao Ek would not wish to see those days celebrated, and when our foreign fellow cilizens cau appreciate peace In a strange land they then will forget to place any Value on victories gained tor the perpetuation of despots and tyranta, who only regard thelr people a9 SAVES, THE PROCESSION A HELLISH DESIGN.

To rae Epiton or THE HeRaLny Permit me to say a word tn your valuable paper in reference to the contemplated ceiebration of the 12th of July by the Orangemen of New York, 18 seems to me there exists a great deal of unnecessary alarm; for if the men who, by false and fraudulent representauons, optained # charier under an as sumed name, nad not the courage to show thete coiors and the true interest and meaning their organization at the tune of obtaming such charter, then | ain arongy of the opin- ton that they will find tt diMoult to sum up conrage enough to parade and aunt their colors on the 12u. Some peopie areof the opinion thas because they obtained a charter from the Siato that y have @ right to be protected by the Stare au. thorities. I deny that che so-caliéd Orangemen have any chartered rights; for the charter by which they claim they are entitied to march ander, and to be protected 1f neceasary by the State authorities, was Krantel to some Protestant assootation. No douve they were of the opinion that under such name they would enlist the Ce a of American Pro- untian.
