a CONGRESSIONAL, AGRICULTURAL,
"A AND LITERARY NEWSPAPER.--The
Editors Of the Congressional Globe propose new
publication. To deserve the ps,ronage which
Congress has accorded TO their reports of its de-
bates, in receiving and making the Globe the off,
cial register, they intend to add prompfifltfe to
Whatever merit has hitherto recommended the
work They will publish Daily Globe, TO re-
cord the proceedings and debates as they occur;
and Congressional Globe periodically. a. bereto-
fore. embodying the reports Of Congress separate
from the miscellaneous matter which will accom-.
pany them in the daily print Tn ilf the sheet Of
the daily newspaper. 1t Is designed to gather the
news from all quarters, and complete the contents
by drawing from every source that may be of most
interest among literary novelties, and Of greatest
utility in scientific and practical works on agricul-
ture. For material, the leading journsls and peri.
odicals of France and Great Britain, treating oi
such subjects, will be consulted, and, It IL hoped,
advaI.tsgeously used. Original essays, especially
on topics connected with agriculture, will be OBJ
tanned from the most enlightened and practical
men of our country.
The Globe, as newspaper, aud as a vehicle Of
information and amusement in other respects, will
be under the charge Of Francis P. Blair and James
z. Pickett The Congressional department and
business concerns of the paper will be under the
management Of John G. Riyes. The public are
familiar with Blair and Rives as connected with
the press. In introducing Mr.. Pickett as one oi
the concern, they will be allowed to say few
words OF him. He Isl gentleman hvorably known
to the Government. for the talent and judgmen,
which distinguished his diplomatic service while
connected with the mission to Quito; and more re-
Gently when Charge d'Affairs to Peru. From his
pen mainly the Globe will derive the selections
and translations from the French journals and Pc
riodicals, the comments on them, and the other
literary articles, which will be found among its
chief attractions.
The Globe will be published daily during tn
session OF Congress, and weekly the balance Of the
year, aud will undergo distribution in the form OF
Weekly Globe, aCongressional Globe, and an
Appendix. .n,3y esf'e
The Weekly Globe will be the vehicle Of the
miscellaneous articles Of the daily PRINT, with a
synopsis of the Congressional proceedings. y
The Congressional Globe will embody, as it has
done tor the last sixteen years, Congressional pro-
ceedings and debates exclusively. ls..-.t,..'
h The Appendix will embrace the revised
speeches separately. and the messages of the Pres
ident OF the United States, and tie reports of the
Heads of the Executive Departments. f.ls,.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be
published as fast as the proceedings of Congress
will make number Subscribers may expect one
number OF each week during the first four weeks
OF a session, and two or three numbers Of each
week afterwards, until the end of the session.
Nothing ofa political party aspect will appear
in the Globe save 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 fiom the vocation
The Globe will inviolabIy msintain the neutrality
which its relation to Congress imposes,
