The commoners, never wanting to miss a chance for a day off work and a party, are celebrating the defeat of the sons of Pompey by Caesar. The tribunes are angry because this is a civil war and those that died in it were Romans, and therefore no reason to celebrate.
The commoners are having a big party and holiday to celebrate Caesar's victory over the sons of Pompey. Basically, for them, any excuse for a party is a good one. Marullus and Flavius upbraid them because the war between Caesar and Pompey was a civil war; the defeated army was a Roman army, and its soldiers were Roman soldiers. Any booty the victors brought back was Roman booty. The tribunes thus point out that the battle was a loss for Rome as much as a victory, so there is no reason to celebrate.
Flavius and marullus want the commoners to disperse so that their assembly might not encourage Julius Caesar and he must not overgrow in his power with the notion that the Romans also loved him and supported him.

He tells Marullus to remove any decorations he might find on the statues. "Disrobe the images if you do find them deck'd with ceremonies." He plans to send the common people home. "I'll about and drive the vulgar from the streets." Presumably he will remove any statue decorations as well if he finds any.
