PROSPECTUS FOR THE
Congressional Globe,
AND
APpDNDIEs

FENHESE works have been published by US for
n SIX years. There are now more subscri-
bers for them, probably, than for any paper pub
lished i'll the United States; certainly more than
there are for any other paper published in the
District. This large and increasing subscription
is conclusive evidence of their usefulness. They
are invaluable to all who feel an interest in the
proceedings of Congress- No other publication
gives them 30 full nor half 50 cheap 1t is, in
deed, the cheapest publication in the United
States-perhaps in the world Our position at
the seat of Government enables us TO print them
at so low rate. We are compelled to publish
the proceedings of Congress in detail, for our
daily paper This done, it requires, compare.
lively, but a small additional expense to change
them to the forms of the Congressional Globe
and Appendix. If it were not for these crcum-
stances, we could not publish them for four
times the sum charged.
The Congressional Globe is made up Of the
daily proceedings of the two houses of Congress,
and the speeches of the members, condensed.-
The yeas and nays on all important subjects are
given. 1t is published weekly, with small type,
on sixteen royal quarto pages.
The Appendix contains tho speeches of the
members at full length, written out by them
selves, and is printed in the same form as the
Congressional Globe. 1t is published as fast as
the speeches can be prepared. Usually there are
more numbers printed for session than there
are weeks in it.
Each Of these works is complete in itself But
it is desirable for every subscriber to have both;
because, if there should be any ambiguity in the
synopsis of n speech in the Congressional Globe,
Of any denial of its correctness, it may be reno
we'd at once, by referring to the speech in the
Appendix.
Indexes to both are sent to subscribers, as
soon they can be prepared after tho adjourn
ment of Congress.

Sd. The two and half per cent. will
not be required, as il does not constitute a

The stockholders, and will in most res

manner OF graduating the stock, whether
by districts or the State generally; in Ell
Their case the graduation will be made ac-
cordlng TO the provisions Of the second
section OF the original charter.
| have thus succinctly answered the in
terrogations made by you. Be assured,
sir, that this directory will at all times,
with much pleasure, furnish such nfor-
nation as may be desired, and that their
labors shall be incessant in the service OF
the bank, which if well managed, must
add greatly to the happiness and pros

turned to the counties for correction, but
