Trusting to our memory, we yesterday
erred in stating that in 1850, the consideration
for which Mr.: NORRIS got the Speakcrship of

candidate for the printing that year. The
bargain, however, was made between the Op-
position and Mr.. NORRIS, as stated, and he
was duly elected Speaker over the regular
Democratic Caucus nominee, WM. DAVIS

trayed his pledges and went for GOODRICH
