| FINHE approach of Congress calls out the annual
Il Prospectus of the GLOBE Establishment
The time is full of interest. The coming in of
new Admnistration--the consequent broaching of
new policy touching the internal concerns of the
country-the new and most important issues arising
from the late vast accession TO the public domain,
and the great national objects associated witirit-
the impending difficulty in our 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 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, 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 to 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 exclu-
| sive devotion of the individual who for many
years has made it his study to cmbody and publish
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
requiredthe 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 gven,-will
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall 30 far patronise ii as TO become purchaser
of such portion Of the daily sheets issued shall
contribute to make the reports 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,
as will, in part, defray the expense of reporting,
| and give them circulation as Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher to bear the charge of reporting and
1t 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
