Statistics of the Roman Catholic Church

In answer to the query as to the statistics of the Roman Catholic Church, p. 61. Number 4., I think I may say there is no such *general* work, though the *Propaganda* of Rome was said to register something of that sort. The information is only to be picked up from various and (as far as I know) all imperfect publications. The least so that I can just now refer to is the *Statistics of the Roman Catholic Church of Ireland*, in Thom's *Dublin Almanack*—a very curious and useful compilation.
