BY very well arranged plan the census OF the popu-
lation, &c, OF Great Britain taken by returns
made to the proper authorities the LIST instant-the
| ,ohole business being done in that single day.
The Arch Bishops and Bishops of England with the
exception OF four OF the latter, have issued we'll timed
address the Clergy, setting forth the necessity of
uniformity in their public teachings and administrations
aud representing the heerodoxy of the Puseyte opin-
ion tha the Church of England is nothing more than
reformed Church OF Rome, and that all the forms and
ceremonies OF the latter, which were not done away
with at the reformation, yet to be attended to or
not, according to the views OF the officiating minister
On the contrary say the right reverend dgnitaes of
tho Church of England the whole scheme Of Catholic
rites and ceremonies set aside at the reformation
and none other were re established excepting such
are clearly set forth in the ritual then agreed upon and
where difference OF opinion to that ritual exists,
the appeal is to be made to the Bishops of the Diocese
| The tour Bishops whose names are not attached to
this important manifesto are those of Hereford Man
chester, Exeter, and Bath and Wells The first two
have not signed it, because their tolerant principles in
cline them regard all action ia the matter as unne-
cessary The Bishop of Exeter repudiates the docu-

we should probably have been spared the Papal ag-
gressons and the mschievous train OF consequences
which they have induced.
The great Exhibition is the principal point of arac-
ton at present. and all Its arrangements successful
| y and rapidly advancing We have great hopes that
the United States will occupy very prominent place
In this cosmopolitan display of human skill and indus
try Some difficulties and misunderstanding have
| arisen among the American exhibitors respecting the
exact meaning OF the appointments made by the Gen.
| trail Committee at Washington. Mr.. Stansbury has
been placed in unpleasant position, and it lie due to
HIM to state that so lar as we conversan with the
circumstances-and we believe we know them all-he
has conducted himself like able, active and intel
ligent agent, and with the department OF gentleman.
We trust that explanations, which have been written
tor to Washington, will remove all difficulty upon the
point, and place the exhibitors at large in position
cognize the plainly declared intentions aud wishes OF
| the Central Committee, which they unanimously
prepared to do In the time majority OF them
understand and have acted under the impression, that
Mr. Stansburys present duties ceased when the goods
were placed in the buding and that at that poi0t MIR.
Riddles duties commenced at least so far related
| to their arrangement and display Mr.. Riddle is
thus occupied and the interest of the exhibitors and the
credit OF the country will be efficiently cared for; but
it is very desirable that it should be known as soon as
possible ,oho is 10 he the Agent Commissioner
presenting the entire body OF the American exhhiters
n all meetings of the foreign Commissioners and in all
| intercourse and business arrangements, &c, with the
| British Executive Committee and the Royal Commits
soners. Mr.. Stansbury and his friends maintain the
opinion that he appointed agent for general
purposes, and that therefore he occupies the first posi-
ton, and is to remain here in that position until the
close OF the Exhibitions and that Mr.. Riddle is agent
tor special purpose only confined the building and
the display and custody OF the goods in the building
Your Central Committee must settle the point by short
and clear declaration their intentions and wishes.

that the whole negotiation has been "a mere sham to
bring back MN. Baroche and Fouid. Be this as it
may NJ Baroche is now the person charged with the
