ORANGE DEMONSTRATION IN CHRISTCHURCH.
(by telegraph.) Christchurch, July 12. The Christchurch and suburban Orange Lodges commemorated the anniversary of the Battle of the Boyne to-day with a procession, sports, and dinner. The procession, comprising 600 Orangemen wearing regalia and carrying numerous flags and banners and headed by a band of music, started from the Orange Hall, Worcester-street, at noon. They marched through the principal streets, avoiding Barrett's Hotel, where the previous disturbance occurred, and proceeded to the sports ground in the north-east suburb. There was an immense number of people in the streets. The city and country police mustered in great force, under Commissioner Broham and Inspectors Buckley and O'Donnell. Everything passed off in the most orderly manner. The sports are now in progress, and there is a large assemblage of spectators.
