Congressional Globe & Appendix.
These works have such a wide circulation, and
have been 81 universally approved ana sought alter
by the public, that We deem 1t necessary only IN
his spectus TO say thatthey will be continued at
TIE next session Of Congress, aud 10 state, sac
ciucty, their contents, the form in which they
will be printed, and the prices for them.
The Congressional Globe is made up OF the
ally proceedings Of the two Houses OF Congress,
The speeches Ihc members are abridged, or con-
denset, % bring them into a reasonable or read
able length. All the resolutions offered, or motions
made are given at length. IN the movers own
words and the yeas and nays on all the impof-
tant questions. 1t is printed with small type
! brewer and nonpareil-on adouble-royai sheet III
quarto from, each number containing Ito royal
Quarto pages. 1t is printed as last as the business
done in Congress furnishes matter enough for
number The first four weeks of a session uSu-
ally furnish matter enough for one number a
week and the balance of the session enough Tor
, two ar three numbers a week. The coming
session of Congress will furnish matter enough
we suppose, for twenty-five or thirty numbers.
The Appendix Is made up of the Presidents
annual message, the reports Of the principal OF.
| fcers ofthc Government that accompany It, and all
the long speeches OF members Of Congress, written
out or revised by themselves. 1t is printed IN the
same form as the Congressional Globe, and usu-
ay makes about the same number of pages.
There are not so many numbers published the hrst
weeks OF session, as there are numbers of the
Congressional Globe; because the members are
slow in writing out their speeches. But towards

Each of these works is complete in itself; but
it is necessary for every subscriber who desires a
full knowledge of the proceedings of Congress. to
have both because, then, if there should be any
ambiguity in the synopsis OF the speech, or any
denial of lis correctness, published in the Con-
gressional Globe, the reader may turn to the APP
pendx TO sec the speech length corrected by the
member himself.
