TIME approach OF Congress calls out the annual
Il Prospectus of the GLOBE Establishment
The time is full of interest. The coming in OF
new Administration consequent broaching of
a policy touching the internal concerns of the
countryside new and ostimportant 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 1880 The de-
bates, from the agitation of 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
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 ablest
Reporters yet known to Congress; its materials
and machinery of the best sort; and the exclu-
sive devotion of the individual who for many
the abors of Congress gives reason to hope that an
advance will be made in the accomplishment OF this
undertaking commensurate with Its 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 to the mass published, by the pro-
tracted sessions and the fuller reports given,-will
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronse it as TO become purchaser
of such portion of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute 10 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,
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 cheapest
in the Union, (the expense of preparation consid-
cred } will yet yield sufficient profit to make the
system permanent.
JOHN G. RIvEs having purchased the interest of
+. p. BLAIR in Jackson Hall-the printing Office,
machinery and material-becomes the sole proprie-
thereof, and will give his exclusive attention
the Congressional Department J. c. PICKETT will
conductive Miscellaneous Department of the News
paper. +. p, BLAIR retires from both concerns,
with prayers for their permanent usefulness and
| prosperity.

| session of Congress, and weekly the remainder of
the year. and will undergo distribution in the form
of a WEEKLY GLOBE, CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, and
| an APPENDIX.

proceedings and debates exclusively.
