From our telegraphic dispatches the
readers of The Constitution: will see
that on yesterday, there was a fight iu
the city 6f .New York, between the two
great divisions oi^Irisliinen, Catholics
and Orangemen.' Tho 12th was the
Orangemen’s anniversaiy, and they in
tended to celebrate-it, and in their ef
forts to do. so, the row was brought
about. We speak of tlieir anniversaiy,
we mean 'toeif glorification over the
