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 Admnstration-the consequent broaching of
new policy touching the internal concerns of the
countryside new and most nportant issues arising
from the late vast accession to the public domain,
and the great national objects associated with it,
the impending difficulty in our relations with
Frances and the possible complication of our affairs
with the troubles Of Europe,-conspire to create
great expectation as 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 to the Republic will draw forth all the
talent of the National Legislature. To bring its
deliberations home to the people, each succeed
ing day. while measures maturing, is in effect,
TO bring the whole nation into council. The dis
CUSTOM 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 CLONE. 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 oxclu-
sivc devotion Of the individual who for many
years has made 1t his study to embody and publish
the labors of Congress, gives to hope that
advance will be made in the accomplishment of this
undertaking commemorate with its increased inn
portancc But the accumulation of expense CON-
sequent on the additional number of Reporters
requrcd-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 patronisc il as to become purchaser
OF such portion of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute 10 make the reports that fill them. The
undersigned has vcntured 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,
as will, in part, defray the expense OF reporting,
and give them circulation as Congressional docu-
mens 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
in the Union, (the expense Of preparation consid-
ered) will yet yield sufficient profit to make the
system permanent
JoHs c. RIvEs having purchased the interest of
+. p. BLAn in Jackson Hall-the printing office,
machinery and material-bccomest the sole proprie-
tor thereof, and will give his exclusive attention to
the Congressional Department. J. G. PICKETT will
