The Yazoo Democrat. (Yazoo City, Miss.) 1844-18??, 1844-12-31
PROSPECTUS FOR THE

sought after by the public, that we deem L hec-
essary only in this prospectus TO say that they l
win be continued atthe next session Of Congress,
and to state, succincly, their contents, the form
in which they will DO printed, and che price for
them.
The Congressional Globe is made up Of the
daily pr1oeedings az the two Houses OF Congress.
The speeches Of the members are condensed TO
bring them into a readable length. All the res.
olutiens offered. or motions made, are given in
the moyer,s own words and the yeas and nays
on all the important questions. II is printed
with small type BREWER and noDpareil-o0 a
double royal sheet, in quarto foTm' each number
containing is royal Quarto pages.
The Appendix 10 made up OF the Presldent's
m Iual message, the reports oithc principle Off
GERS Of the government that accompany Il, and
ali the long speechea Of members Of Congress,
written out or revised by themselves. Itis prin-
ted in the form as the Congressional Globe, and
usually makes about the same number OF pages.
Now there is no source but the Congressional
Globe and Appendix from which a person can
obtain a full histUSy Of the proceedings OF Con-
qress. Ills now PG0Se niSed by a resolution as
the authentic report Of proceedings the earlier
volumes having been purchased for the use Of
members, and for the Congressional library.
Gales and Seaton's Register Of Debates, which
contained history, was suspended 10 the year
| 1897 and has not since been resumed. 1t cost
about five times as much for session as the Con-
eressional Globe and Appendix, and did not con-
/ tain an equal amount Of matter, great portion
of the current proceedings being omitted.
Complete indexes TO both the Congressional
Globe and ths appendix are printed at the close
Of each session, and ssut 10 all subscribers for
them. &c.,.
The REPORTS Of the Congressional Globe and
ithe Appendix are not in the least degree affect
ed by the party bias Of the editors They are
given precisely as written out by the reporters
and the members themselves, and are subject to
the revision and correction OF the speakers.
The approach Of Congress which will discuss
for tho Americas people all the most important
Questions ever entertained by the national cOun'
cils, and new and extraordinary measures never
before fully ventured upon, has induced the pub
fishers of the Globe to make greater and better
: preparation than heretofore 70 reporting and
publishing the speeches end proceedings Of the
next session.
All persons who may desire either, or both Of
these works, should subscribe for them by the 10
Iof December, else they may fail to get them.
Persons are still subscribing for The Congressional
Globe for the last session Of Congress, and we
have not been able to furnish a complete copy
Of il since earlyin the session. We will send
the Congressional Globe Tor the approaching SEES
sion TO any person who will return to US all the
numbers Of it for the last session. We usually
print double as many copiss as we have subscri-
bers at the commencement ofa session, and then,
perhaps in few weeks they will all be exhaus-
ted. We say again, that those who want the
nsrrssional Globe, or the Appendix, must
subscribe and send the money for them by the
10th Of December, else they viii not probably
get them.
Persons subscribing for the Congressional
; Globe, or the Appendix, should be careful to
name the State as well us the post Office TO which
; they wish the paper sent, as there are many
pest Offices OF the snme name in different States
Paris, for example. We received money
from Paris in one Of the States, many years ago,
and we have not been able, up to this day, to
lind out from what State il was sent; and the
person who sent II has lost his money. The rules
lof the General Post Once requires the postmGs-
tiers 10 endorse the name Of the State on every
letter, but many of them neglect to do it.
4 Every man in the country who desires to be
informed of the public history or the public men
OF the country, should read the debates of Con-
gresp. Our foreign affairs aud the domestic con-
Germs of every section Ofthe country pass under
review in Congress. The discussions embrace
men and things, present and past history and
the best faculties and highest attainments are
directed to their calculation. II is impossible
to be cited for the political arena without an
intimate knowledge Of the annual Congressional
debates.

pectus may wish 10 subscribe for our regular pa
Ipers, through which zee speak, ws will here state
