NEW SERIES OF THE
CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND Appendix
no De sTEREoTYPED

The undersigned originated the mode
OF Journallzing the proceedings of Con-
gress, which presented them entire. Their
publication was the first and only one that
gave each successive step in every mea-
sure in both branches of Congress; q 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 a most perfect political history
The Senators from the States and the Re-
representatives. from every section of the
Union bring with them into Congress, a
knowledge Of the feelings, sentiments,
and interests of their several constituent
Cies. Public opinion and the public in
formation, as it exists among those they
represent, are embodied by them; and in
the crucible 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 nation as a
whole, and all its component parts made to
move IN cooperation. 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-
gress by publishing full and impartial re.
ports, and having large mass of the Con-
gressional Globe and Appendix, issued
during the last ten years, which would be
impaired in value to us and utility to the
public if the work were discontinued, we
have double motive to prompt US to ex-
tend it through new series. We are re-
solved if possible, to give it permanence,
and to hand it down to successors as
standard work, worthy of being maintain
ed and improved. We shall enter upon
our new undertaking without being dis
tracted or burdened by any associate la
bors of the press; and, thus unencumbered,
shall hope to make the new series step
in advance of the former in all points of
execution.
With view TO accomplish this, we shall
be Zone or the other) always in attendance
in Congress-wil compare the manuscript
of our own reporters with the daily re.
ports Of the city papers-correcta all by our
own observation and knowledge of the
proceedings; and in important matters,
where that will not assure US of the 6deli-
tv Of the reports, we will procure the aid
Of the members themselves, 10 obtain the
exact scope of their remarks. The work,
fbus authenticated, will be stereotyped,
which is a guaranty that we will make il
