FOOTNOTES:
[57] As the Appendixes originally printed with the foregoing Reports,
and which consist chiefly of official documents, would have swelled this
volume to an enormous size, it has been thought proper to omit them,
with the exception of the first nine numbers of the Appendix B. to the
Eleventh Report, the insertion of which has been judged necessary for
the elucidation of the subject-matter of that Report.
