TINE approach of Congress calls out the annual
IL Prospectus of the GLOBE Establishment.
The time is full of interest. The coming in OF a
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 with it,
the impending difficulty in relations with
France, and the possible complication of 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 many questions Of
vital interest 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
cusson, spreading from the Capitol to the remoest
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 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 ablcst
Reporters yet, known TO Congress; its materials
and machinery of the best sort; and the exclu-
siye devotion Of the individual who for many
years has made it his study TO embody and publish
the labors OF Congress- gives to hope that an
advance VIII Dc mace III the accompaniment OF tllls
undertaking commensurate with its increased i'm
portance. But the accumulation OF expense con-
sequent on the additional number of Reporters
required-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 a failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronisc 1t as TO become purchaser
of such portion Of the daily sheets issued as shall
contribute to make the reports that fill them. The
undersigned has ventured 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
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 10 make the
system permanent.

The Clone will be published daily during the
session Of Congress, and weekly the remainder of
the year; and will undergo distribution in the form
of a WEEKLY GLOBE, CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, and
an APPENDIX.
The WEEKLY GLOBE will contain Agricultural
and miscellaneous articles; and will occasionally
give debates Of such importance as command uni
versal interest. AtH
The price of the WEEKLY GLOBE is reduced to
one dollar, with view to obtain more general
circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto paid
81 per annum will be charged only 81 after the
expiration of the first year
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE will embody, as it
has done Dr the last sixteen years, Congressional
proceedings and debates exclusively,
The APPENDIX will embrace the revised speeches
separately, and the messages of the President of
the United States and the reports of the Heads of
the Executive Departments
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and Appendix will
be published as fast as the proceedings of Congress
will make a number. Subscribers may expect one
number OF each a week during the first four weeks
Of session. and two or three numbers of each
week afterwards, until the end of the session. Each
volume will probably comprise two thousand royal
quarto pages, of small type.
Complete indexes to the CONGRESSIONAL e LOBE
and APPENDIX will be sent to subscribers soon after
Congress adjourns.
Nothing of political party aspect will appear in
the GLOBE save that which will be found in the
an impartial vehicle for all sides cannot maintain
its character if the editorial columns reflect party
hue.
