The Globe.


nual prospectus of the Globe establishment
The time is full of interest. The coming in of
new Notwithstanding consequent broachng
OF new policy touching the internal concerns
OF the Countrywide new and most important is
sues arising from the late vast accession to the
public domain, and the great national objects as
soclated with 1.-THE impending difficulty in our
relations with France, and the possible compl-
cation OF our affairs with the troubles of Europe,
consplre to create great expectations as to the
proceedings of the next Congress. The ap-
preaching session will probably continue till late
IN the summer of 1850. The debates, 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 it's delibera-
tons home to the people, on each succeeding
aay, whlie measures are maturing, is in effect to
bring the whole national into council. The dis
cusslon, spreading from the Capitol to the remo-
test parts OF the Union, forms public opinion
winch reacts upon Congress, and controls its de-
cisions.
TO become useful instrument, however hum
pic, to assist the working of the admirable ma
chinery of our popular institutions, is the amb-
ton OF the conductor of the GLOBE. Extraor-
binary preparations have therefore been made to
meet the increasing demands of our rapidly i'm
proving and growing country for congressional
intelligence.
The GLOBE press has already enlisted the a.
blest reporters yet known to Congress; its ma
chlnery are of the best sort; and the exclusive
devotion OF the Individual who for so many years
has made it his study to cmbody and publish the
labors of Congress, gives reason to hope that an
advance will be made in the accomplishment of
this undertaking commensurate with its ncreas-
ed Importance. But the accumulation OF ex-
Pcnse consequent on the additional number of
reporters requlred-the extra charges incurred
III printing at night the debates Of the preceding
day-thc vast addition made to the mass publish
ed, by the protracted sessions and the fuller re-
ports gven-will render our enterprise failure
unless Congress shall so far patronize it las to be-
come purchaser of such portion of the daily
sheets issued as shall contribute to make the re-
ports that fill them The undersigned has ven
tuecd on the preparation he has made for the ne xt
session, in the expectation that Congress will
subscribe for as many daily sheets for each mem
Der, at the subscription price, will in part de-
tray the expense of reporting, and give them cir
culatlon as congressional documents in their Sc
veral districts. This will enable the publisher
to bear the charge of reporting; and it will give
an impulse to the circulation of the COMPRESSION
al print, which, although the cheapest in the u
mon Chc expense of preparation considered)
will yctylcld sufficient profit to make the system
permanent.

OF the year, and will undergo distribution in the

universal interest

al circulation Subscribers who have hitherto

has done tor the last sixteen years, congresson-
al proceedings and debates exclusively

cs separately, and the messages ofthe President
OF the United States and the reports efthe heads
OF the executive departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
be published as fast as the proceedings of Con

expect one number of each week during the first
four weeks Of a session, and two or three num-

and Appendix will be sent to subscribers soon
after Congress adjourns
Nothing of a political party aspect will appear
| IN the Globe, save that which will be found in

to be an impartial vehicle for all sides, cannot
maintain it's character if the editorial columns
reflect party hue
