Enlargement Of the weekly Union.
The "Weekly Uni0no is issued every Satur.
day; and as arrangements IN progress to enlarge

abed to give nearly every article which may appear
in the daily and semi-weekly editions, at the ex
uemey low rate OF a. We propose also to give,
IN this edition, complete synoptical summary Of
the proceedings in both houses of Congress--ihus
rendering the weekly Union" a most valuable
channel Of information to all clasaes of our country
But to remunerate for this enterprise, an extern
sve subscription list is absolutely Indispensable.

In addition to the foregoing, we have resolved TO

ture, Congressional Regisfer," TO be issued week.
ly, and TO contain a FULL REPORT of the daily pro-
ceedings and debates Of both houses. Indeed, the
arrangements which we have made with the yery
best corps of reporters will enable us to give even
more full and extended reports than we have pro-
duced during this session, superior as we claim
them to be to any preceding oncs. The Register
will be made up from the daily reports in the
"Union," carefully revised by an experienced edi-
tor, and will constitute complete ard authentic
record of the session. An appendix will be added,
uniform with the Register, and to be sent gratui-
tously to subscribers, comprising list of the acts
passed during the session, with synopsis of their
contents, and reference, when necessary, to pre-
vlous legislation. This will form the most COM
pete history of the sessions of Congress, and will
be furnished at the low price of sEvESrr-yvE CENTS
for the next session.
