AND LITERARY NEWSPAPER.


AND LITERARY NEWSPAPER.
THE approach Of Congress calls out the Annu-
al Prospectus of the globe Establishment
The time is full OF interest. The coming in OF
new Administration-the consequent broachlng
Of new policy touching the internal concerns Of
the countryside new and most important issues
arising from the late vast accession to the public
domain, and the great national objects associated
with 1.-THE impending difficulty in our relations
with France, and the possible complication of
our affairs with the troubles of Europe con-
spire to create great expectation as TO the pro,
ceedings of the next Congress. The approaching
Session will probably continue ill late in the
summer OF 1850 The debates, from the agita-
ton of many questions of vital interest In the
Republic, will draw forth all the talent of the
National Legislature. To bring its deliberations
home to the people, on each succeeding day,
while measures are maturing. is, III effect, to
bring the whole nation into council. The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol to the reno
test parts OF the Union, forms public opinion
which which reacts upon Congress and coutrols its de-
cisions.
To become useful instrument however hum.
BILE, to assist the working of the admirable ma
chinery of our popular institutions, is the ambi-
tion OF the conductor of the GLOBE Extranr-
dinary preparations have therefore been made to
meet the increasing demands of our rapdly.im.
proving and growing country for Congr ,ssional
intelligence.
The GLOBE Press has already enlisted the
abest Reporters yet known to Congress; its ma
terals and machinery are OF the best sort; and
the exclusive devotion Of the individual who for
so many years has made it his study to embody
and publish the labors of Congress. gives reason
to hope that an advance will be made in the ac-
| compshment of this undertaking commensurate
with its increased Importance. But the accun,u.
lation Of expense consequent on the additional
number of Reporters required the extra charges
incurred in printing at night the debates Of the
preceding day-the vast addition made to the
mass published, by the protracted sessions and
the fuller reports gIver,- will render our enter
prise a failure, unless Congress shall so far pat
ronize it as to become purchaser of such portion
of the daily sheets issued, shall contribute to
make the reports that fill them. The undersigned
has ventured on tn preparation he has made for
the next Session, in the expectation that Con-
gress will subscribe for as many daily sheets for
each Member. at the subscription price, will,
in part, defray the expense of reporting, and
give them circulation Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the Publisher to bear the charge of reporting, and
it will give an impulse to the circulation Of The
Congressional Print, which, although the cheap
est in the Union (the expense of preparation
considered) will yet yield sucientP profit to make
the system permanent
JOHN c RIvEs having purchased the interest
Of +. P. BLAIR in Jackson Hall-the printing
office, machinery and materidl-becomes the sole
proprietor thereof, and will give his exclusive at
tention to the Congressional Department. J. G.
PICKETT will conduct the Miscellaneous De-
partment of the Newspaper. F.P BLAIR re-
tires from both concerns, with prayers for their
permanent usefulness and prosperity.
The GLOBE will be published daily during the
of the year, and will undergo distribution in the
form Of WEEKLY GLOBE, CoNG REsMoNAl
GLOBE, and an APPENDIX.
The WEEKLY GLOBE will contain A gricul,u.
raj and miscellaneous articles; and will occasion.
ally give debates of such importance as com.
mand universal interest.
The price of the WEEKLY Globe is reduced |

eral circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto

the expiration OF the first year.
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE will embody, as |
