NEW SERIES
or THE
CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND
APPENDIX
TO BE NpEREOYTpEO.

The undersigned originated the mode o.
JourEalzIng the proceedings 0l Congress
which presented Them entire. Their pub
Ilcalon was the first aud only one thai CAV,
each successive step IN every measure II
bOIn branches Of Congress; bret Of all dc
bates, every important vote; and an Appel
dix including al full length all Iae reylseC
speeches delivered during The session. lht
work thus conducted BY them is a most per
feet political history. The Senator'S from
The States aud the Representatives from
every section Of The Union bring with them
into Congress knowledge Of Ihe feelings
sentiments, and interests Of Their several
constituencies. Public opinion and the
public Information, as it exists among those
Ihey represent, are embodied by Ibem, and
IN Ih6 crucbls of Congress the wisdom O
our times is brought TO It's test, and is there
concenIraled in directing the politlca
movements of lhG whole country. The
impulses thus given through Congress from
every quarter react upon Ihe nation as d
whole, aud all iIs component parts are
made 10 move IN co operation. Tho press
cannot be more usefulIy employed than IN
condensng and again spreading abroad the
intelligence Of our flee county, tending lo
such happy results through our almost mi
raculously adjusted SIaie and National in
sllutlons,
Having identified ourselves with the plan
of advancing the usefulness Of C0ngtess By
publishing fail and impartial reports, and
having large mass of The Congressional
Globe and Appendix, issued during The last
ten yenrs, which would be impaired IN val
us 10 us and utility 10 The public if Me work
were discontinued, we have a double mo
live 10 prompt US 10 extend ii through anew
series. We ale resolved il possible 10 give
i, permanence, and 10 hand II down lO>suc
cessors as standard work, worthy OF being
maintained and improved. VS. shall enter
upon our new undertaking without being
distracted or burdened by any associate la
bors Of the press: ard, thus unencumbered,
shall hope to make the new series step
in advance of the former IN all points Of eX
ccu,lon, With view 10 accomplish this,
we shall be Zone or the oSheD always in al
tendance in Congres- viii compare the
manuscript Of our own reporters with the
daily reports of the CITY papers--cOrrecl all
by our own observation and knowledge oI
,he proceedings; and in important matters,
where that will not assure Us Of ME fidelity
Of the rePosls we will procure 1he aid o
tle members themselves, 10 obtain the ex
acl scope Of their remarks The work, ,.hus
authenticated, will be sleTeolyped, which is 4
guaranty that we will make as perfect as il
is possible for US 10 make ll,weas would not
incur The expense OF stereolyPing II, if we
did no. feel confident Of lis superiority over
all works OF The kind which have been OF
are likely TO be published SIereoyping
the work will enable US TO supply lost OF
mulilaled numbers, which we will do,wilh
