The Yazoo Democrat. (Yazoo City, Miss.) 1844-18??, 1845-01-14
PROSPECTUS FOR THE
ongressional Globe & Appendix.


. essary only 10 this prospectus 10 say that they
\ will be continued at the next session Of Congress
and to state, succinctly, their contents, the form
: in which they will be printed, and the price FOL
them.
The Congressional Globe is made up of the
daily proceedings Of the two Houses OF Congress
The speeches OF the members are condensed 10
bring them into readable length. All the res
OlutiOns offered, or motions made, are gwen IN
the movers own words and the yeas ana nays
on all the important questions 1t is printed
with small type BREWER aud nonpareil-on a
double royal sheet, in quarto form, each number
containing l6 royal quarto pages
The Appendix is made up OF the PTesldenpa
annual message, the reports OF the principle Off
GERS Of The government that accompany 1t, and
all the long speeches of members Of Congress,
written out or revised by themselves. It prin-
ted in the form as the Congressional Globe, and
usually makes about the same number OF pages.
Now there is ne source but the Congressional
Globe and Appendix from which a person can
obtain full history Of the proceedings Of Con-
sress. II isnow Peros 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 OF Debates, which
contained a history, was suspended in the year
| 1887 and has not since been resumed. 1t cost
about FIVE times as much for session as the Con-
gressional Globe and Appendix, and did not cona
tain an equal amount Of matter, great portion
Of the current proceedings being omitted.
Complete indexes TO both the Congressional
tHo DC HHuh chs appendix are printed at the close
OF each session, and SeHs@AA 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 reporters
aud the members themselves, and are subject to
the revision and correction Of the speakers.
The approach ola Congress which will discuss
for the Americas people all 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
lishers of the Globe to make greater and better
preparation than heretofore 70 reporting and
publishing the speeches end proceedings Of the
next session.
All pertons who may desire either, or both of
these works, should subscribe for them by the 10
of December, else they may fail to get them.
Persons are still subscribing for the Congressional
Globe for the last session of Congress, and we
have not been able to furnish a complete copy
Of it since earlyin the session. We will send
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 rs we have subscri-
bers al the commencement OF a session, and then,
perhaps in few weeks they will all be exhaus-
lied. We say again, that those who want the
Cong rrssiOnal Globe, or the Appendix, must
subscribe aud send The money for them by the
10th of December, else they viii not probably
get them.
Persons subscribing for the Congressional
Globe, or the Appendix, should be careful to
no fha 0tnt he IN ;nb
they wish the paper sent, as there are many
pest Offices OF the same name in different States
Paris, for example. We received money
from Paris, in one Of the States, many years ago,
and we have not been able, up to this day, to
find out from what State it was sent; and the
person who sent il has lost his money. The rules
Of the General Post Office requires the postmas-
tiers to endorse the name of the State on every
letter, but 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 read the debates Of Con-
gress. Our foreign affairs and the domestic con-
Germs Of every section the country pass under
review in Congress. The discussions embrace
men and things, present and past history; and
the best faculties and highest attainments are
directed to their elucidation. 1t is impossible
to be fitted for the political arena without an
intimate knowledge the annual Congressional
debates.
As some persons who may receive this pros
pectus may wish 10 subscribe for our regular pa
pers, through which zee speak, WIS will here state
that we publish daily paper at $40; a semi
weekly paper at SIS; and weekly paper, with
a complete index to it, at So year, payable in

We publish our prospectus in this form, so that
our friends may interest themselves in obtaining
subscription for us, may cut it out and attach
writing-paper, lift were not that many postmas-
tiers charge letter postage on such. Persons OBJ
tanning subscribers for us may retain every sixth
dollar they coeet-that lie, they may send to us
only S. for six copies of either work, or for six

and one Of the other.
