PROSPECTUS FOR THE
Congressional Globe g. Appendix,

Congressional Globe d Appendix,
ITNHEsE works have snoh a. wide circulation
Il and have been 90 universally approved and
sought after by the public, that we deem IL hec.
essaFy only jn this prospectus to say that they
will be continued at the next session OfCOngFess
and to state, SnceinotY, their contents, the form
in which they will be printed, and the price ror
them.
The Congressional Globe is made up of the
daily proceedings Of the two Houses OF Congress
The speeches of the members are condemned 10
bring them into readable length. All the res
OlutiOns offered, or motions made, are given in
the movers own words and the yeas and nays
on all the important questions. 1t is printed
with small type BREWER and nOnpareil-on a
double royal sheet, in quartO form, each number
containing l6 royal quarto pages.
The Appendix is made up Of the Presidents
annual message, the reports OF the principle Off.
GERS Of The government that accompany il, and
all the long speeches Of members of Congress,
written out or revised by themselves. II lis prn.
ted in the form as the Congressional Globe, and
usually makes about the same number of pages.
Now there is nc source but the Congressional
Globe and Appendix from which person can
obtain fnll history of the proceedings of Con-
gress. 1t is now recognised 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 history, was suspended in the year
1897 and has not since been resumed. 1t cost
about five times as much for session as the Con-
gressionul Globe and Appendix, and did not con-
tain an equal amount Of matter, great portion
Of the current proceedings being omitted.
Complete indexes to both the Congressional
CSobe and the appendix are printed at the close
n o nd IN al gRslaq
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
and the members themselves, and are subject to
the revision and correction Of the speakers.
The approach Ofa Congress which will discuss
for the Aulericaa people all the most important
questions ever entertained by the national eoun-
ellis, and new and extraordinary measures never
before fully veRtuFed upon, has induced the pub
fishers of the Globe to make greater and better
preparation than heretofore 70 reporting and
publishing the speeches end proceedings Of the
next session.
All pereons 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 early in the session. We will send |
the Congressional Globe Tor the approaching ses-
sion 10 any person who will return to us all the |
numbers of it for the last session. We usually |
print double as many copies MS we have subscri- ,
bers at the commencement of session, and then,
perhaps in few weeks they will all be exhaus-
ted. We say again, that those who want the
Congressional Globe, or the Appendix, must |
subscribe and send The Nancy for the,u 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
name the State as well as the post Office 10 which
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
ind out from whaLSlate it was sent; and the
person who sent II has lost his money The rules
Of the General Post Office requires the postmEs-
seTs 10 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-
yress. Our loreign affairs and the domestic con-
:erns Of every section ofthe country pass under
'eview in Congress. The discussions embrace
men and things, present and past history, and
he best faculties and highest attainments are
lirected to their eucidation. 1t is impossible
o be fitted for the political arena without an
intimate knowledge Of the annual Congressional
lebates.
