gHTHESE works have such wide circulation
III aud have been 10 universally approved ant
sought after by the public, that we deem Il hec
essary only IN this prospectus to say that the.
will be continued az the next session Of Congress
AMI to sta te, sucenctIy, their contents, the form
in which they will be printed, aud the price 70
them.
The Congressional Globe is made up of thI
daily proceedings Of the two Houses OF Congtess
THE speeches oil the members are condensed &
bring them into a readable length All the res
i olntions offered, or motions made, are given il
the movers own words; and the yeas and nay:
on all the important questions. 1t is printed
with small type BREWER and nonpareil-on .
double ROYAL sheet, in quarto form, eaCh number
containing l6 royal quarto pages.
The Appendix is made up Of the Presidents
annual message the reports Of tho principle Off.
GERS Of the government that accompany it, and
all the long speeches Of members OF Congress,
written out or revised by themselves. It's prin
ted ia the form as the Congressional Globe, and
usually makes about the same number Of pages.
| Now there is no source but the Congressional
Globe ana Appendix from which person can
obtain full history Of the proceedings Of Com
gress. 1t is now recog Missed by 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 or Debates, which
contained history, was suspended in the year
1887 and has not since been resumed. 1t cost
about FIVE times ms much for session as the Com
gressional GLOBE and Appendix, and did not con
tain an equal amount Of matter, great portion
or the current proceedings being omitted.
Complete indexes 70 both the Congressional
Globe and the appendix are printed at the clos
of each session, aud sent 10 all subscribers for
them.
The reports Of the Congressional Globe and
the 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 reporter
aud the members themselves, and are subject t.
the revision aud correction OF the speakers.
The approach ola Congress which will discuss
for The Americas people ali the most important
questions ever entertained by the national coun.
ellis 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 gnd proceedings Of the
uexi session.
All persons who may desire either, or both o.
these works, should subscribe for them by the III
OF December, else they may fail to get them
Persons still subscribing for the Congressional
Globe for The last session of Congress, and we
have not been able to furnish a complete cop
of it since earlyin the session. We will seno
the Congressional Globe for the approaching ses
sion TO any person who will return to US all the
numbers of it for the last session. We usually
print double as many copies MS we have subscri
bers at the commencement OF a session, and then,
perhaps in few weeks they win all be exhans
ted. We say again, that those who want the
Congressional Globe, or the Appendix, must
subscribe and send The money for them by the
10th Of December, else they viii not probabl,
get them.
Persons subscribing for the Congressional
Globe, or the Appendix, should be careful to

pest Offices OF the same name in different States

from Paris, in one ofthe States. many years ago.
and we have not been able, up to this day, toI
End out from what State IL was sent: and the
person whosent ii has lost his money. The rules
d the General Post Office requires the postmas
tiers to endorse the name of the State on every
letter, hut many Of them neglect to do it.
Every man in the country who desires to be
informed Of the public history or the public men
Of the country, should Tead the debates OF Con-
gress. Our foreign alfaiFs and the domestic con-
cerns Of every section ofthe country pass under
review IN Congress. The discussions embrace
men and things, present and past history: and
