A CORRECTION.
TO Till! EDITOR OF THE NEW ZEALAND TIMES. Sm,—Peeling sure that you would not willingly misrepresent in your parliamentary reports tho utterances of any member of tho House, I draw your attention to a somewhat serious inaccuracy in tho version given in this morning's paper of my remarks on the question raised by Mr. T. L. Shepherd, with regard to tho printing at tho Government Oliico, in two or three instances of tho speeches of hon. members, in form of supplements to newspapers. X am made to sav "that tho papers in question (viz., tho Tuapeka times and Ihdlcr New's) wore of such a petty character that they could not afford to print supplements.” , I never made any sucli remark, what I stated was, that on inquiring of tho Government Printer as to the exact circumstances under which tho speeches of Mr. O’Couor and Mr. J. C. Brown were printed in supplement form, I was informed that those members had represented to Mr. Didshury that tho local papers would not bo ablo to print their speeches in extonso in one issue, and that tho desired opportunity of presenting them in complete form to their constituents could only bo obtained by tho mode adopted, viz., tho printing from tho Hansard type in one sheet. I should certainly not have been guilty of the impertinence which the remarks attributed to mo would Imply.—l am, &c„ ITi. J. Steward. September 10.
