CONGRESSIONAL INTELLIG ENCER

The propretors Of the NATIONAL INTELLICEN-
GER, in order to meet the wishes of these whose
circumstances or inclination do not allow them to
subscribe even to a weekly Washington paper
during the whole year, have determined to is
sue during each session of Congress, weekly
sheet styled g THE CoNGREssIoNAL lNTELLIGGG-
cGR," to be devoted exclusively to the publication,
as far as its limits will permit, Of the Proceedings
Of both Houses Of Congress, and Official Reports
and Documents connected herewith, including d
complete official cepy # all .ec!s passed by Congress dr
ring the session
10 bring the price within the means Of every
man who can read, the charge for this paper will
be for the first session of each Congress One Dol
lar, and for the second session Of each Congress
half Dollar.
The price Of the CONGRESSIONAL INTELLIGEN-
GER, to be issued on each Wednesday during the
approaching Session Of Congress viii therefore be
one Dollar paid in advance.
TO enlarge upon the value, to these who take
no newspaper from Washington, of this Iublica-
ton, containing an impartial but necessarily abbre
Waited account Of the Proceedings in Congress, in
Guiding an authentic official copy Of all the laws
passed during the session, would be needless. The
man who takes no such paper ought to take one, if
ne does not prefer remaining ignorant Of what
most nearly concerns his own destiny, ard that cI
his family and of his posterity for ever.
D5PWhen six copies are ordered and paid fer
by any one person, deduction Of one-sixth will
be made from the price, that is to say remittance
Of Five Dollars will command six copies cf the
Congressional IntelIigencer for the next Session.
A remittance Of Ten Dollars will secure thirteen
copies and for Fifteen Dollars remtted frcm any
one person or place twenty copies will be fer
warded.
SIS@Payment in advance in all cases is indis-
pensablc.
