Congressional Globe and Appendix

THESE works have such wide circulation,
and have been universally approved and sought
after by the public, that we deem it necessary only
in this prospectus 10 say, that they will be contIn-
ued at the next session of Congress, and to state
succintly, their contents the form ia which they
will be printed, and the prices for them.
The Congressional Giobeis made up Of the
daily proceedings of the two Houses Of Congress
The speeches of the members are condensed. to
bring them into readable length. All the resolu-
tions offered, motions made, are given in the 4ao.

I-breVeir and nonpaFeil-on double Royal sheet,
in quarto form, each number containing l6 roya
quarto pages It IS printed as fast as the business
done in Congress furnishes matter enough for a
number. The first four weeks Of a session usual
ly furnishes matter enough for one number week:
and the ebaiance of the session erough for two or
three numbers week. The Approaching session
Of Congress will be long ene,s and will furnish
matter enough we suppose, for fifty or sixty num-
bers.
The Appendix Is made up of The Presidents

of the Government that accompany it, and all the
long speeches of members Of Congresss.Written

Things CeTtain-There are some evidences
which may be considered as conclusive Among
these we reckon the following
When man is seen in close conversation dai.
ly with leaders in the whig ranks, just on the eve
Of election that he is unworthy of theconfdence
of the democrats
When man is heard finding fault with promi.
nent men in the democratic ranks, and expressing
doubts concerning their election if nominated, that
he intends to play into the hands of the enemy
These, and many other evidences, are GER

Waxing up the aoyOng Possenger.--Dan Mar

was smtten with the charms Of young lady
who was living little way in the country. One
cred some of bis musical friends and started for
her residence to surprise her with serenade. On
their way thither they got caught ia the rain,
but this was nothing to their desire of pleasing
the fair one" AT length they arrived at the
house, placed themselves underneath the piazza
and played about dozen Of the most fashionable
tunes, but no bright rays appeared to smile upon
them a welcome. They concluded to return a.
gain, and as they were about to depart one of the
upper windows was thrown up and a voice hail
ed them in this w1se:-E EGemnien-gemmen,

AnecdOte of Sir John KeGn.-The morning
previous to the departure Of the Columbia from
Bombay, the Commodore gave an entertainment to
some of the public functonaries ofthe place. which
was honored by Sir John Kean, the gallant officer
who succeeded General Packenham atthe battle Of
New Orleans. Upon being reminded, in answer
to an allusion of his own on the subject, that he
had regained in India all that be had lost in A
Inerica, Sir John very courteonsiy replied -"Oh,
no not quite Tell General Jackson" said he,
" that have never yet regained nay former assur-
ance of British superiority over her brothers in A
merica, which she lost at New Orleans; nor can

.MISCELL.aNROUS.

The Prayer of a Miser-Among many curl
Gus papers found after the dceease of John Ward,
a member of the British Parliament for Hackney.
there was one in his own handwriting, of which
the following sa copy. 1t is an admirable satire,
and we commend il to certain persons who must
be nameless:
"Oh Lord thou knowest that have nine hou-
ses in the city of London, and likewise that have
purchased an estate in fee simple in the county Of
Essex beseech thee to preserve the counties oi
Middlesex and Essex from fire and earthquakes
and as l have Mortgage in Hertfordshre, 1 beg
Of thee likew ise to have an eye of compassion on
that county; and for the rest of the counties thou
mayst deal as you please. Oh Lord, enable the
banks to answer all their bills, and make all my
debtors good men. Give prosperous voyage
and return to the Mermaid sloop, because have
Insured in it; and as thou hast said that the days
of the wicked are but short, trust in thee thou
wilt not forget the promise, as have purchased
an estate in reversion, which will be mine on the
death of that profigate young man, Sir j
L. Keep my friends from sinking, and pre-.
serve me from thieves and house breakers, and
make all my servants so honest and faithful that
they may attend to my Interest and never cheat me
out of my property, night or day"

This is one ofthe best specimens of crossread-

Early yesterday morning as lame cork-screw
was walking on his head to fight julius Cesar, a
fttleeoy on three hundred jugs of gin, dared to
declare war against the Yankees at the Cape xoi
Good Hope This beautiful farce, hidden as it was
by terrible shriels like as of falling snow, broke
suddenly into a gaHop of delicious music and step
ped unceremoniously into donkey's BEDROOM.
The barber knowing that as the sweetmeats were
desperate they would probably cut his leg off, stole
six jack knives aud made them jute an ice-cream.
Not content with this, the popuface pulled off the
cats shirt, when they discovered the skeleton of
cannon bali, passing rapidly on rs way to Church.
Pen cannot describe the screams, the broken boots
combed whiskers, andink stands which danced the
first qiadrille. The Queen having taken lump el
coal for breakfast, sat down on the large spre of
lme-kiln, where the cattle gave her uose-gays
