THE GLOBE:
A Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary

A Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary
Newspaper.
VVNHE approach of Congress calls out the annual
i Prospectus of the GLOBE Establishment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in of a
new Administration-the consequent broaching OF
a 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 III our 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 10 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
cussion, spreading from the Capitol to the remotest
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
chlnery 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 ablest
Reporters yet known to Congress; it's materials
and machinery of the best sort; and the exclu-
sive devotion of the individual who for many
years has made IT his study TO embody and publish
advance will be made in the accomplishment of this
undertaking commemorate with It's increased i'm
! portance. But the accumulation of expense con-
/ sequent 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 10 the mass published, by the pro-
tracted sessions and the fuller reports given,-wil
render our enterprise a failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronise it as 10 become purchaser
of such portion of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute to make the reports that fill them. The
| undersigned has yentured on the preparation he
| has made for the next Session in the expectation
| that Congress will subscribe for many daily
sheets for each Member, the subscription price,
as will, in part, defray the expense of reporting,
and give them circulation Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher 10 bear the charge Of reporting and
| it will give impulse to the circulation of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
in the Union, (the expense of preparation consid-
ered,) will yet yield sufficient profit 10 make the
| system permanent
JONI q. RrvEs having purchased the interest Of
| F. p. BLAIR in Jackson Hall-the printing office,
machinery and material-bccomes the sole proprie-
tor thereof, and will give his exclusive attention 10
| the Congressional Department j. G. PICKETT will
| conductive Miscellaneous Department of the News
paper. F. p. BLAIR retires from both concerns,
with prayers for their permanent usefulness and
| prosperity.
1 The GLOBE will be published daily during the
session of Congress, and weekly the remainder Of
the year; and will undergo distribution in the form
Of WEEKLY GLOBE, a CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, and
| an APPENDIX.
The WEEKLY GLOBE will contain Agricultural
and miscellaneous articles; and will occasionally
give debates Of such importance as command uni
versal interest.
The price Of the WEEKLY GLOBE is reduced to
| one dollar, with a view 20 obtain a more general
circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto paid
1 50 per annum will be charged only : / after the
expiration Of the first year.
The CoNGREssroSAL GLoHE will embody, as it
has done for the last sixteen years. Congressional
proceedings and debates exclusively.
| The APPENDIX will embrace the revised speeches
separately, and the messages Of the President Of
the United States and the reports Of the Heads Of
! the Executive Departments.
| The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and APPENDIX will
be published fast the proceedings of Congress
| will make number. Subscribers may expect one
number Of each a week during the first four weeks
of session, and two or three numbers of each a
week afterwards, until the end Of the session. Each
volume will probably comprise two thousand royal
| quarto pages, of small type.
Complete indexes 20 the CoNGREssoNAL G. LOBE
and Appendix will be sent to subscribers after
Congress adjOurns.
Nothing Of 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 aides cannot maintain
it's character If the editorial columns reflect party
hue.
