[It is proper to state, in extenuation of the above long list of errors, that the Report was printed in haste, with the view of having it ready early in the Session of the Legislature, and that the author had not an opportunity of reading the greater part of the proofs. Several minor errors, not seriously affecting the sense, are not noticed in the errata.]
