dom Of our times is brought TO its test. and
is there concentrated, in directing lhe nj.
Ilica movements the whole country
The impulses thus given through Congress-
from every quarter react upon the nation
as whole, and all lis component parts ara
made to move in cooperation. The prese
cannot be more useful employed than in
condensing and again spreading abroad he
intelligence Of our free country. tend;na
to such happy results through our almost
miraculously adjusted State and National
institutions.
Having identified ourselves with the
plan of advancing the usefulness Of Con.
gress by publishing full and impartial re.
ports, and hayinga large mass of the Con.
gressonal Globe and Appendix, issued
during the last twelve years, which would
be impaired in value to US and utility 10
the public if the work were discontinued,
we have double motive 10 prompt us to
extend it through new series. We are
resolved, if possible, to give it perma-
hence, and 10 hand it down to successors
as standard work, worthy ofbeing main
tanned and improved. We shall enter up
on our new undertaking without being dis,
tractod or burdened by any associate la
bors Of the press; and, thus unencumbered,
shall hope to make the new series a step
in advance Of the former in all points Of
execution. With a view to accomplish
this, we shall be Tone or the oher) ia al.
tendance on Congress.
The reports will not be affected by our
party bias. We believe every member Of
Congress will bear witness that our re.
ports are full and fair.
The Congressional Globe is made up
Of the daily proceedings Of the two Houses
of Congress, and printed on super6ne
double royal paper, with small type, (bre-
yier and nonpariel,) in quarto from, each
number containing sixteen royal quaro
pages. The speeches ofthe members, in
this first form, are condensed--tbe full
report Of the prepared speeches being re.
served for the Appendix. All resolutions,
motions, and other proceedings, are given
in the form Of the Journals, with the yeas
and nays on every important question.
The Appendix is made up Of the Presi.
dents Annual Message, the reports Of the
pricipal officers of the Government that
accompany it, and all speeches of mem
bers of Congress, written out or revised
by themselves. 1t is printed in the same
form as the Congressional Globe, and
usually makes about the same number OF
pages during a session.
During the first month or six weeks OF
a session, there is rarely more business
done than will make two numbers week
-one of the Congressional Globe and one
of the Appendix; but during the remainder
of q session, there is usually sufficient
matter for two or three numbers OF each
every week. The next session will be IN.
usually interesting; therefore, we calcu-
late that the Congressional Globe and APP
pendix together will make near 1900
large quarlo pages, printed in small type
BREWER and nonpareil. We furnish
complete Indexes to both al tho end Of a
session.
We have on hand the Congressional
Globe and Appendix for the last fifteen
sessions OF Congress, making together hi
Teen large royal quarto volumes, which we
will sell, unbound, for 81; or bound, with
RUSSIA hacks and corners, for $56. Those
who want back volumes should apply for
them Immediately, as they are in demand.
