HNHESE works have such wide circulation
and have been so universally approved an
, sought be- by the public, that we deem i hec
: essary only in this prospectus to say that the.
will be continued at the next session ofCnngres'
and to state, succinciy, their contents, the fora
in which they will be printed, aud the price 70
them.
The Congressional Globe is made up of tb,
daily proceedings Of the two Houses OF Congress
The speeches Of the members are condensed 4
bring them into readable length. All the res
toutions offered, or motions made, are given il
the movers own words and the yeas and nay
on all the important questions 1t is printeC
with small type BREWER and nonpareil-on I
double ROYAL ,hGct, in quarto form, each number
containing l6 royal quarto pages.
| The Appendix is made up Of the PRESIDENT
anaual messa &c, the reports OF the principle Off
GERS Of the government that accompany it, and
tall>the long speeches of members OF Congress
written out or revised by Themselves. II prin-
ted in the form as the Congressional Globe, and
usually makes about the same number of pages.
Now there is no source but the Congressional
Globe and Appendix from which a person can
obtain full history of the proceedings of Con-
gress 1t is now recognized by a 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 history, was suspended in the year
1887 and has not since been resumed. 1t cost
about five times MS much for a session as the Con-
gressional Globe and Appendix, and did not con-
tain an equal amount of matter, great portion
OF the current proceedings being omitted.
Camnlete indexes to both the Congressional
'1'ooe ana tno appendix are printed at the close
OF each session. ana sent TO all suhscribers 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 ont by the reporter.
and the members themselves, and are subject to
the revision and correction OF the speakers.
The approach of 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
fishers OF the Globe to make greater and better
than heretofore 70 reporting and
publishing the speeches end proceedings OF the
next session.

these works, should subscribe for them by the 10

OF it since earlyin the session. We will send
the Congressional Globe for the approaching SEES
sion to any person who will return to us all the
numbers of it for the last session. We usually |
print double as many copias as we have subscri.

Persons subscribing for the Congressional
Globe, or the Appendix, should be careful to

-Par!s, 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
lnd out rom what State it was sent; and the

If the General Post Office requires the postmas-
ers TO endorse the name Of the State on every
etter, 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
'f the country, should read the debates of Con-
