The newly-appointed bishop of Liv erpool was installed yesterday with tl ; the solemn and impressive ceremonies tlV of the church of England at St. Pe V ters Protestant cathedral. Although Liverpool is a city of the greatest im portance in the kingdom , it never up fi to the present time has been erected into a distinct and separate see. The fact that it should be has been felt for a considerable time by the govern ment , and by the ecclesiastical au thorities it was recently resolved to take this step without further delay , ospeciaUy as it waa believed that Christ's church in the midst of the host of , population of that great sea port would be thus decidedly promot ed. The last creation of a see pre vious to Liverpool was St. Albans in 1877- Exclusive of the new see the list Includes Canterbury , York London , Durham , Winchester , Ban ger , Bath , Wells , Carlisle , Chichester , Exeto- . Gloucester , Bristol , Hereford , Hetchford , Lincoln , Standoff , Man chester , Oxford , Petorboro , Ripen , Rochester , St. Albans , St. Aeaph , St. Davidi , Salisbury , Worcester , Sader and Mom. The ceremonies of the day took place in the Protestant ca thedral , a structure built to serve the temporary purpose of a permanent cathedral. Bishops and the clergy were largely represented and took part in the services , dressed in full canonicales. The display was witness - ed by a brilliant and crowded congre gation. The new candidate for this high ecclesiastical honor had been ly seated on the throne , which was placed conspicuously in the building. The queen's representative read the writ commanding this installation to be made , and tbe candidate was offic ially invested with the robes and dig nities of his office. The new sea is composed of the city alone , Liver pool having hitherto been a part of the see of Manchester. BBADLAUGH CAN AFFIRM.

The claim was allowed. The city engineer was directed to make the necessary surveys and esti mates for bringing California street tea a permanent gradebetween Thirteenth and Twentieth , and-thTcity clerk was tuthojjzacVto ad vertwe" * f or proposals for gtading of the same. - The committee on streets and grades reported that the repairs desired by residents on Eghteenth ; street were already in progress. The same committee reported in favor of accepting the proposition of James-Neville to deed certain land to the city in exchange for city property , in order to straighten out Hamey street , and the city engineer was in structed to make all necessary surveys in the matter. The report of thocommitlee on streets and grades in reference to the grading of Sixteenth street , from Douglas to Leavenworth was favorable , but was recommitted to be brought in at the first meeting in July.

By Mr. Dodge To send the city team to do Eomo reccsjaty grading in Hansom p"ark , said work not to ex ceed two day's time. Adopted. Mr. Kennard offered the following resolution : _ Kesohed , That the city clerk is here- Jjy directed to-advertise for proposals for printing for the fiscal year ending July 1 , 1881. Proposals for adver tising shall be accompanied by a sworn statement cf the average daily circula tion delivered by carrier within the city limits of Omaha during the month of June , 1880 ; advertising to be com puted by the square of tan lines , non pareil measurement. Proposals for job work to bo based on the classifica tion of the preceding year. Mr. Dailey moved to amend by striking out that portion regarding the circulation. Mr. Kennard opposed the amend ment on the ground that if the city advertised at all , she should advertise in the paper that had the largest cir culation and that this was a proper method of ascertaining that relative condition of the various papers. Wo want our advertisements to reach the people , and there was but one paper through which that object could be attained. Mr. Boyd thought that the amend ment was a good one. There was but one paper in the city that would com ply with such a requirement , TUG fADA BEE , and the other papers would be practically cut out.Ve already know enough about the circu lation and the proper time to give that subject consideration will be when the bids are in. Mr. Dodge vratmly opposed the amendment , and gave good reasons for so doing. Ho wanted the advertising to reach the greatest number possible. This it would not do in The Republi can or The Herald , which issue 400 or 500 copies daily. The official paper of the city was not widely read , and men had asked him about advertise ments which had been published and never seen. On the principle advo cated by Mr. Diiley and others , ad vertising might as well be done by posting up two or three written no tices. tices.Mr. Mr. Labagh didn't want the circu lation clause inserted , and he would Eight it to the bitter end. Other membera of the 'council spoke at length , the general tenor of the advocates of the amendment be ing an admission of the fact the BEE circulation exceedcl that of all other papers in the city combined , but that it was not fair that that matter should 39 allowed to cut out the others. Tbe resolution as amended was adopted. A petition , from Howard B. Smith and others in regard to the dangerous embankment north of the bighsohncl building , and taking * hat the matter 30 remedied , was referred to the com mittee on streets and grades. A communication from Thomas C. ETally , the park keeper , was received and placed on file.
