During the first month or six weeks of ses.
sion, there is ia rely business done than will
make two numbers week--one Of the Congress
sional Globe and one of the Appendix; but dur
Ing the remainder of session, there is usually
sufficient matter for two or three humber Of each
every week, The next session will be unusually
interesting therefore, we calculate that the Con
eressional Globe aad Appendix together will
make near I5J0 large quarto pages, printed in
small type-hrevier and nonpa:eil. We furnish
complete In4exes to both at the end of session
