THE GLOBE,
A Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary


Newspaper.
TIME 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 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS consequent broaching of
new policy touching the internal concerns Of the
countryside new and neutrality-suspicious. 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 to 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 are maturing, is, in effect,
to bring the whole nation into council. The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol 10 the remotest
parts Of the Union, forms public opinion which
reacts upon Congress and controls its decisions.
To become a 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 are OF the best sort; and the cxclu
sive devotion Of the individual who for 30 many
years has made it his study TO cmbody and publish
the abors Of Congress gives reason TO hope that
advance will be made in the accomplishment Of this
undertaking commemorate with its increased inn
portance. But the accumulation of expense con-
sequent on the additional number Of Reporters
requiredthc 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,-wl
render enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall 20 far patronise II as 10 become purchaser
Of such portion Of the daily sheets issued as shall
contribute TO make the rePoris that fill them. The
undersigned has ventured on 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,
IA will, in part, defray the expense Of reporting,
and give them circulation as Congressional docu-
mcnts in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher TO bear the charge Of reporting and
IL will give an impulse TO the circulation Of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
ercd,) will yet yield sufficient profit 70 mako the
system permanent.
