THE GLOBE;
Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary
Newspaper.

TINE approach of Congress calls out the annual
i Prospectus of the GLOBE Establishment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in Of
new Administration-the consequent broaching OF
a 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 it,
the impending difficulty in relations with
France, and the possible complication Of our affairs
with the troubles Of Europe,-conspire 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 the Republic will draw forth allthe
talent Of the National Legislature. To bring its
deliberations home to the people, on each succeed
ing day while measures are maturing, is in effect
To bring the whole nation into council. The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol To the remotes
parts Of the Union, forms public opinion which
reacts upon Congress and controls its decisions.
To become useful instrument, however hum
Bile, 10 assist the working of the admirable ma
chinery of our 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 abest
Reporters yet known TO Congress; Its materials
and machinery of the best sort and the exclu-
sive devotion of the individual who for so many
years has made IL his study 10 cmbody and publish
the abors of Congress- gives reason 10 hope that
advance will be made IN the accomplishment OF this
undertaking with Its increased I'M
portance. But the accumulation of expense CON
scquent the additional number of Reporters
rcquircd-the 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 gven,-will
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall 50 far patronise II as 10 become a purchaser
Of such portion of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute to make the reports that fill them The
undersigned has ventured the preparation he
has made for the next Session in the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price.

and give them circulation a. Congressional doCu
ments in their several districts This Will enabl,
the publisher 10 bear the charge Of reporting, and
IL will give impulse to the circulation of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
ia the Union (the expense Of preparation consid-
ered,) will yet yield sufficient profit 10 make the
system permanent.
