The threats to errest every one that
appeared in the streets, kept the Orange-
men in their hal all day, without ro-
freslirriept of any kind; At about 0
o'clook protection was offered all who
wished to go home. After consultation,
the Orangemen accepted the protection
of the regular police, a large number of
eabs were ongaged, and 0110 by one took
about: half a dozen Orangemen at a time

with marked . suspicion, *and on the

for a day. The most extreme instance
of the arbitrary conduct of.the speeitt1
constables was, when. they . resetted

dye was badly lejured about the head.

'PRE MAYOR'S .CWIDI;(4.
The Mayor's conduct has been' (via..
cized very freely by both sides., The
opinion on the whole 'seems to be that
he acted just as he intended trent the
first, "witUt he single object of prevent-
ing by every inettns the procession from
taking plaue. The Orapgemen complain
that Hid Worlihip allowed the mob to.
assemble and remein all day, in open
violation of his oWn proeltunation,. in
order to in the .proce'ssioniats
mia prevent them from walking. They
also charge him with swearing "in the
special constables, most of whom they
claim to be the 'worst types orhumanity
te be :found in the city, for the mere
purpose of arresting thorn if they at
tempted to march.The action of some
of theee valiant peace -preservers in-elub-
bing every defenceless Orange youth
they- could grab, at least gives color to
this opinion. It is well-known that the
Mayor was frequently applied to during
the day by loth ,magistratee,and
citizens to disperse the mob, but Ite
'turned it deaf ear to all appeals in tla
directioii. until after the Orangemen had
surrendered at discretion, •• •
