gave each successive step in every mea-
sure in both branches Of Congress- a brief
Of all The debates; every important vote;
and an Appendix, including at full length
all the revised speeches delivered during
the session. The work thus conducted BY
them is most perfect political history
The Senators from the States and the Re-
representatives. from every section OF the
Union bring with them into Congress,
knowledge Of the feelings, sentiments,
and interests Of their several constituent
eies. Public opinion and the public in
formation. as II exists among those tlieA
represent, are embodied by them; and in
the crucibe of Congress the wisdom Of
our times IS brought to its test, and is there
concentrated, in directing the political
movements Of the whole country. The
impulses thus given through Congress from
every quarter react upon the patton as a
whole, and all It's component paris made to
move in co operation. The press cannot
be more uselully employed than in con-
densing and again spreading abroad the
intelligence Of our free country, tending
to such happy results through our almost
miraculously adjusted State and National
institutions,
Having identified ourselves with the
plan Of advancing the usefulness OF Con-
press by publishing full and impartial re-
ports, and having large mass of the Con-
gresslonal Globe and Appendix, issued
during the last ten years, which would be
impaired in value to us and utility 10 the
public if The work were discontinued, we
have double motive TO prompt us TO ex-
tend il through new series. We are re-
solved il possible, to give 1t permanence,
and to hand it down 10 successors as a
standard work, worthy Of being maintain
ed and improved. We shall enter upon
our new undertaking without being dis
traeted or burdened by any associate la
boIs of the press; and, thus unencumbered,
shall hope TO make the new series q step
in advance of the former in all points OF
execution.
With view 10 accomplish this, we shall
be Tone or the other) always in attendance
in Congress-wll compare the manuscript
Of our own reporters with the daily re
, ports Of the city papers--corect all by our
own observation and knowledge Of the
proceedings; and in important matters,
where that will not assure Us of the fideli.
" of the reports, we will procure the aio
of the members themselves, TO obtain the
exact scope Of their remarks. The work
/ thus authenticated, will be s,ereotyped
, which is guaranty thai we will make \
> as perfect as ii is possible for US TO make
: it, ms we would not incur the expense 0
g erect, ping it, if we did not feel conf
: dent of lis superiority over all works o
!, the kind which have been or are likely Il
Q be published. Stereo'yping the work vii
enable us to supply lost or mutiluied nun
r bers, which we will do, without making
any charge for them
!, The Congressional Globe is made up o
the daily proceedings Of The two House
i, of Congress. The speeches of the men
bers are condensed to bring them into
readable length. All the resolutions Of
fered, er motions made, are given in tn
e movers own words; aud the yeas and nay
on all the important questions. II is prln
led with small type--brevler and nonpa
: reil--on double royal sheet, in quart
/, torn, each number containing sixteen roy
/ al quarto pages.
H The Appendix is made up Of the Pres
II dents annual message, the reports of III
n principal officers of the Government tht
H accompany it, and all the long speeche
y OF members of Congress, written out {
revised by themselves. 1t is printed
Ie the same form as he Congressional Glob'
r, and usually makes about the same nun
lie Der oil pages.
$. We print the numbers as fast as th
e proceedings Of Congress furnish enoug
le matter for number. During the fir
:. month or six weeks of session, there
81 rarely more business done Than will max
D. one number of the Congressional Glot
,e and one numbr OF the Appendix weey
j. but during the remainder of a session lhel
e is usually sufficient matter for two or Tire
At jumpers Of each every week. The mel
ID Session will be long one, and it is SUI
posed will he unusually interesting; there
.. tore, we calculate that the Compression;
70 Globe and Appendix will each make nea
/ one thousand large quarto pages, printe
