                              ERRATA.
   In reviewing the foregoing pages, after they came from the press, the
com-
 piler has discovered a number of slight errors, which he here wishes to
note,
 for the benefit of the compiler ot the next edition of the Manual. In the
 annals of the Legislature, giving lists of all previous members of the Legis-
 lature, which were copied from the journals, a number of slight errors appear
 in the spelling of names. It was the aim of the compiler to give this dpart-
 ment without a single error of any kind, but the proof-sheets not having
 passed under his inspection, a few mortifying errors have crept in.
 Page 256.-Two of the Presidential electors for 1848 should be for the State
 at large, and two district electors, and on page 257, Wisconsin is given
as
 hauing five electors; four is the correct number.
 Page 257.-For the " Twentieth Term" Lincoln and Johnson received
213
 votes, instead of 215.
 Page 261.-The population of Iowa county, in 1865, was 20,657 instead of
 30,657.
 Page 285.-The last figure in this page should be 3, instead of "10.
 In list of Cabinet officers, page 323, the Christian name of Secretary Cox
 should be "Jacob," instead of John, as there given.
 Page 323.-The initials of the Secretary of War are "W. W." instead
of

 On page 324 the list of judges should be corrected by substituting the name
 of H. H. Emmons, instead of Withey, the latter gentleman having declined.
 J. B. Howell has been elected to fill the vacancy in the Iowa Senatorship.
 The Secretary of State will regard it as an especial favor if those who
dis-
 cover other errors in this Manual will make a memorandum of them and send
them to him, so that the errors may not be repeated in the next volume,
