Confidential

With reference to my Confidential Despatch dated the 6th February
last I transmit to you herewith Copies of further correspondence between
Sir E. Thornton and Mr. Fish respecting the census recently taken in San
Juan by the United States authorities, and the form of note to be
 appended to the Census Returns, as explanatory of the circumstances
under which British subjects had been included in the enumeration of the
population of that Island.
