THE GLOBE:
Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary
Newspnper.

NeNsphpeI'
VNHE approach of Congress calls out the annual
Il Prospectus OF the GLOBE Establishment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in of a
new Administraton-the consequent broachng of
new policy touching the internal concerns of the
country-the new and most important issues arising
from the late vast accession to the public domain,
and the great national objects associated with it.
the impending difficulty in our relations with
France and the possible complication of our affairs
with the troubles of Europe,-conspre to create
great expectation TO the proceedings of the next
Congress. The approaching session will probably
continue till late in the summer of 1850. The de-
bates, from the agitation of so many questions of
vital interest to the Republic will draw forth all the
talent of the National Legislature. To bring its
deliberations home to the people, ON each succeed
ing day while measures maturing, is in effect,
to bring the whole nation into council The dis
cusslon, spreading from the Capitol to the remocst
parts OF the Union, forms public opinion which
reacts upon Congress and controls its decisions.
To become useful instrument, however hum
BILE, To assist the working of the admirable ma
Chinery of popular institutions, is the ambition
OF the conductor OF the GLOBE. Extraordinary
preparations have therefore been made to meet the
increasing demands of our rapidly improving and
growing country for Congressional intelligence.
The GLOBE Press has already enlisted the abcst
Reporters yet known TO Congress; its materials
and machinery are of the best sort; and the exclu-
sivc devotion Of the individual who for 80 many
years has made it his study to Gmbody and publish
the labors of Congress, gives reason to hope that
advance will be made in the accomplishment of this
undertaking commensurate with It's increased inn
portauce. but the accumulation of expense con-
scquent the additional number of Reporters
rcqurcd-thc extra charges incurred in printing at
night the debates OF the preceding day-the vast
addition made TO the mass published by the pro-
tracted sessions and the fuller reports given will
render our enterprise a failure, unless Congress
shall so far patrOnise ii as To become purchaser
OF such portion of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute 10 make the reports that fill them. The
undersigned has ycnturcd ON the preparation he
has made for the next Session in the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for as many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price,
az Will, IN part, defray the expense of reporting
and give them circulation as Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher 20 bear the charge Of reporting, and
i viii give an impulse 20 the circulation of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
IN the Union, (thc expense Of preparation consid-
ercd,) viii yet yield sufficient profit TO make the
system permanent.
