| TINE 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--the consequent broaching of
new policy touching the internal concerns of the
countryside new and most important issues arising
from the late vast accession 10 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 1850. 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 maturing, Is, in effect,
TO bring the whole nation into council. The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol to the remotcst
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
chnery of 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 so 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 commensurate with its increased i'm
portance. But the accumulation of expense con-
sequent the additional number Of Reporters
requred-the extra charges incurred en- printing at
night the debates of the preceding day--the vast
addition made to the mass published, by the pro-
tractcd sessions and the fuller reports given,-will
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall far patronse it as to become purchaser
of such portion of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute to make the reports that fill them The
m rrap rat ion he
has made for the next Session in the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for as many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price,
as Will, In part defray the expense of reporting,
and give them circulation Congressional docu-
mcnts 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-
ered) will yet yield sufficient profit to make the
system permanent.
F. p. BLAIR in jackson Hall-the printing Office,
| machinery and material-becomes the sole proprie-
tor thereof, and will give his exclusive attention to
the Congressional Department j c. PICKETT will
conductive Miscellaneous Department of the News
paper. F. p. BLAIR retres from both concerns,
with prayers for their permanent usefulness and
prosperity.
