every speech which is delivered IN the HousSo
Representatives anASenate during the session. re-
ported at length by full and able corpse Of con-
gressiona reporters, and revised before publication
by the authors, whenever it is requested. These
two works will be Strictly impartial, and are in
tended to be as interesting and useful to the man
of business. and to the politician Of the one par
ty as the other.
It may be said, without exaggGation, that the
next session of Congress Is destined to be one of
the most important which hass+aken place since
the foundation of the government. 1t Is the long
session. II is the session which will develope the
general plan Of the present administration. Its
measures will stamp the character OF our lnstltu-
tons for years to come. Some Of the most i'm
portant questions which are connected with our
foreign relation Tor Our domestic concerns, will be
presented for their consideration. The final mea-
sure CT ratIfying the constitution OF Texas which
is TO consummate her admission into our Union,
and the admission of her members into our public
Icouncils-every measure which affects the Oregon
oucstion-our relations with Mexico-as well as
the final decision the revived Zoll-Vereln trea-
Ity-these, and other measures which more or
less connected with lore gn relations will come
under the review of the approaching Congress-
Most of the cminenty important questions which
relate to internal cOncerns-he revision OF the
tarilf-the adoption of the best mode for preserv-
ing the public moneys-a variety of commercial
neutrality-suspicious. the best system for regulating
the important interests Of Texas-the Indian ques-
tions-the land questionable best system for our
navy,-these and others will constitute mass OF
business which is calculated to command much OF
the time of Congress, and much of the attention
of the people. They will all be reported by the
Congressional Union"
The Daily, Semi Weekly, and Weekly Union,
WILL as usual, embrace all interesting variety of
matter political, scicntinc and literary subjects,
along with the current news OF the day. The
editor will continue to devote all his energies to
the Improvement Of 1.-The Union" He finds una
ny accomplished men in this city. Tie admins
tration has brought with it considerable Access
members of the democratic party have accepted Of
flee under it. Some OF them have literally contfi
buted their literary labors to our benefit; and
hope to enlist others in our service. Besides, the
time is not far distant when the editor intends to
call other talents TO his assistance. His ambition
is, to make his paper worthy of the metropolis Of
the Union. He is persuaded that with the facili-
tiles which his position enables him to employ :;
with the official and other materials placed within
his reach and with the aid of the correspondence
which he is attempting to establish III foreign coun
tries paper may be published, which is not I'M
worthy of the support OF his country. In under
/ taking the task, he knew he had many difficulties
to overcome, many lessons to learn, many sacrlli-
ces to encounter. He knew that amid the arduous
cares of new theatre, he could not at first do JUS
tice even to himself; but his zeal has never flag
ged. What enthusiasm and industry never eff
feet, will be fully accomplished. Some errors he
may have already committed. But upon one point,
he can speak with great pleasure and with equal
freedom. The men who are administering this
government are working men, anxious, as he be-
lieves, to do their duty to their country, to
carry out the pledges under which the President
was elected, and the great principles Of the party.
So long as the administration is conducted in this
spirit, and upon those principles he is prepared to
cooperate with them i'll the public service; and to
give them as he proposed in his Prospectus fair,
liberal, and efficient support"
We feel deep sense Of gratitude for the prsmpt
manner in which political friends, in every
section of the country, have already forward
to sustain the ''Unior.'> May we not hope tina,
our friends throughout the United States will con-
tnue to assist our labors, and prevail upon their
friends to take some edition of the "Union!"
