PROSPECTUS
For the Congressional Globe and Appen-

Houses having contracted with US for th'
work, on sch terms as enable us now u
make complete reports, TO multiply ant
'sshe The numbers in quicker succession
than heretofore, and without increasing
the price 10 Subscribers we hope 10 make
a good return for the liberality and h'gl
off ciaI sanction thus bestowed on the pup
hcatioB. We shall increase the volume
at least one e.ilrd beyond the ordinary
| bulk, aud endeavor TO add to its usefulness
by exceeding still further its large cir
culati1u.
This last is not the lie asst important Poin'
in the view Of Congress. Faithful and
durable reports of the debates OF the ood)
are OF value in proportion TO the exten'
Of their circulation amnng the people. II
is in This way that Congress is brought ln'
to the presence ofitsremote constituents
that II obtains easy access aud hoIds
communication with them from day to
day, and renders The governments really
presenialive.

The Congressional Globe is made up OF
The daily proceedings OF the two Houses
1s Congress, aud pilnted on superhhe
double royal paper, with small type,
[brevier aud nonpareli,] in quario io'm,
each number CONTAINING sixteen royal
luarto pages. The speeches of the mem.
,ers, 10 thIs first form, are Condensed
lie iull report OF the prepared speeches
,elng reserved for the Appendix, All
esUlutlons, motions, and other proceed
ngs. are given Inthe form ofthe Journals,
WITH the yeas and nays on every important
ueslIon.
Every member will have an opportunity
o read his remarks before they are put TO
ress. aud after our re, orl if he shall think
incorrect.
The appendix is made up of the Presi>
enl's annual message, the reports OF The
rincipal officers Of the government that
ccumpany ii, and all speeches oil mem
'ers OF Congress, written out or revised
" themselves. 1t is printed in the same
otm as the Congressional Globe, and
suaIly makes about the same number OF
,ages during a session.
during the first month or six weeks OF
session, there is rarely more business
lone Than will make Two numbers week
-une OF the Cong ressional Globe and one
# the Appendix; but during the rem inder
# session, there is usually sufficient
natter for two or three numbers OF each
very week. The next session will be
interesting; therefore, we cal
,ulate that the Congressional Globe aud
appendix together Will make near 3,uUu
arge quarto pages, printed IN small type
brewer and nonpareil. We furnish
complete Indexes to both at the end OF a
ession.
We will endeavor to print sufficient
lumber OF surplus copies TO supply all that
nav be mscarried, or lost in tho mails;
out subscribers should be very particular
o file their papers carefully, for fear that
We should not be able TO supply all the
ost numbers.
We have few surplus copies OF the
Globe Tor the last session oi
Congress, which we will sell for the orlgi |
nal subscription price 81 copy. We
lave no surplus copies of the Appendix tor
