ties, and Of great utility in scientific and pratical
works on agriculture. For material, the leading
Journals and periodicals of France and Great Brit.
pn treating such subjects will be consulted, and,
II is hoped, advantageously used. Original essays,
especially topics connected with agriculture, will
be obtained from the most enlightened and practical
men Of our. country.
! The Globe, as a newspaper, and as vehical Of
information and amusemcat in other respects, will
be under the charge of Francis p. Blair and James
C. Pickett. The Congressional department and
business concerns of the paper will he under the
management of John C. Rires The public are
familiar with Blair and Rives as connected with
the press. In introducing Mr.. Pickett as ono of
the concern they will be allowed to say a few
words Of him. He is gentleman favorably
known to the Government, for the talent and
judgment which distinguished his diplomatic ser;
vice while connected with the mission to Quito =
and more recently when Charge dAfiarcs to Peru.
From his pen mainly the Globe will derive the
selections and translations from the French jour
nails and periodicals, the comments on them, and
the other literary articles which will be found
among its chief attractions.
The Globe will be published daily during the
session of Congress, and weekly the balance of the
year, and will undergo distribution in the form Of
Weekly Globe, Congressional Globe and an
Appendix
The Weekly Globe will be the vehicle of the
miscellaneous articles of the daily print, with n
synopsis of the Congressional proceedings
The Congressional Globe will embody, as it has
done for the last sixteen years, Congressional pro-
cecdings and debates exclusively.
The Appendix will embrace the revised speech
cs separately, and the messages of the President
Of the United States, and the reports of the Heads
ofthe Executive Departments
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
be published as fast as the proceedings of Con-
gress will make number. Subscribers may cx
pect one number of each week during the first
four weeks of session, and two or three numbers
ofeach week afterwards, until the end of the
session.
Nothing of a political party aspect will appear
in the Globe that which will be found in the
Congressional reports. A paper assuming to be
an impartial vehicle for all sides, cannot maintain
its character if the editorial columns reflect party
hue. The Editors of the Globe have borne their
share in the party conflicts of the press. They
claim an honorable discharge from the vocation.
The Globe will inviolably maintain the neutrality
which its relation to Congress imposes.
