Z THE UxDEusIas ED respectfully inform the pub

ing session of Congress, they will begin the publl-
cation of the .Congressional Unipn and ZAP
senafx." The first will contain full and accu-
rate history of the daily proceedings OF both BRAN
ches of the national legislature. 1t will be COM

! reference upon all questions which come before
them. Il.
The second, (thc "Appendix,") will contain
evety speech which is delivered in the House OF
Representatives and Senate during the session, re-
ported at length by full and able corpse of con-
gressional 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
1t may be SAID, without exaggeration, that the
next session of Congress Is destined to be one OF
the most important which has taken place since
the foundation of the government. 1t is the long
session. 1t is the session which will develope the
general plan of the present administration. Its
measures will stamp the character of our institl-
tons for years to come. Some of the most I'M
portant questions which are Sc0nnected with our
foreign relations or domestic concerns, will be
presented for their consideration. The final mca-
sure of ratlfying the constitution of Texas which
I is to consump,ate her admission into our Union,
and the admission Of her members into our public
icouncis-every measure which affects the Oregon
question relations with Mexico-as we'll as
the final decision On the revived Zoll-Verein trea-
Ity-these, and other measures which are more or
less connected with our foreign relations will come
under the review of the approaching Congress
Most of the eminenty important qucsttons which
relate to our internal concernshe revision OF the
tarif-the adoption of the best mode for preserv-
ing the public moneys-a variety of commercial
Neutrality-suspicious. the hest system for regulating
the important interests Of Texas-the Indian ques-
tons-the land questionable best system for our
avy,-these and others will coustitate 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 scenthc, and literary subjects,
ialong with the current news OF the day. The
editor will continue to devote all his energies to
the improvement of "The Union" lie finds ma
ny accomplished men in this city. TEe admins
tration has Brought with it considerable Access
sion ofslalents. Several tried and distinguished
members of the democratic party have accepted Of
fee under it. Some OF them have literally contri-
butcd their literary labofs to oar benefit and we
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 papcs worthy Of the metropolis of
the Union. He is persuaded that, with the faciIi-
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 toessablish IN foreign coun
tries, a paper may be puSlished which is not un-
worthy Of thesupport OF his country. In under
taking the task, he knew he had many difficulties
to overcome, many lessons to learn, many sacrifi-
ces to encounter. He knew that amid the arduous
cares of theatre, he could not at first do JUS
tice even to himself; but his zeal has never flag
ged. What enthusiasm and industry can never eff
feet, will be fully accomplished Sons 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 tbs
government are working men. anxious, as he Be.
eves, to do their duty, to Serve their county, to
carry out the pledges under which the President
was elected, and the great principles of the party
$50 long the administration is conducted in this
spirit and upon those principles, he is prepared to
cooperate with them in the public service; and to
give them, as he proposed in his prospectus, "far,
liberal, and efficient support"
We feel deep sense Of gratitude for the prsmpt
manner in which our political friends, in every
section of the country, have already come forward
to sustain the .'Unior.'' May we not hope ina.
our friends throughout the Ulifd States win con-
tinue to assist our labors and prevail upon their
friends to take some edition of the "Union? 7"
