NEW SERIES
OF THE
Congressional Globe and Appendix.

CoNaREss at Its stsession, through the
Joint Library Committee of the two
Houses, having authorized a large sub
scrip,ion for the Congressional Globe and
.appendir, and the Senate, by resolution.
having directed the mode of preparing |
the reports Of its proceedings, and antho-
r2ed the Secretary Of the Senate TO con-
tract with the undersigned, supulating |
that the reports when written out shall be
subject to the revision of the speaker, the
Congressional Globe and Appendix" is
now offered to the public, not only as an
authentic, bat as anto ofli cial report of the
proceeding of Congress, made under the
eve, and published under the authority Of
that body.
The undersigned originated the mode
of journalizing the proceedings Of Cons
gress, which. thus adopted, is TO be per-
tected with the aid and under the super
vision of Congress. Their publication
was the first and only one that gave each
successive step in every measure in both
branches Of Congress; brief Of all the
debates, every important vote; and an
Appendix, including at full length all the
revised speeches delivered during the ses'
sion.
The work, as il is now to he conddcied
by them, " i'll be found mos, perfect po.
ltical history. The Senators from the
States aud the Representatives from eve-
~ section Of the Union bring with them
into Congress knowledge OF the feelings
sentiments, and interests OF their several
constituencies. Public opinion and the
pnhlic Information, as IL exists among
those they represent, are embodied hl
them; aud in the crucible of C0hGres
tie wisdom Of our times is brought to ITS
test, and is there concentrated; IN direct
ing the political movements OF the whole
country. The mpul'e thus given through
Congress from every quarter react upon
, the nation as a whole, aud all its compo-
neni parts are made to move in co>opefa-
zion. Tie Press cannot be more nseInlly
cmplo, ed than in cnndensing aud again
spreading abroad the intelligence of our
free country, tending to such happy re-
suits thrungh our almost miracnlouslN ad-
+, ius,ed State and National institutions.
5 Having identified ourselves with the
r plan of advancing the usefulness of Con
gress by publishing full aud impartial re
i ports, aud having a large mass Of the

. ries. We are resolved, if possible, To
give il permaneuce, aud TO hand II down
TO successors as a standard work, wprihl
uf being maintained and improved. W {
ehvll enter upon our new undertaking
u without being distracted or burjenod hl
