THE GLOBE,
A Congregational, Agricultural, and Literary
Newspapers.
TINE approach of Congress calls out the annual
j 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
country-thc 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 our relations with
France, and the possible complication Of our affairs
with the troubles Of Europe,cconspire 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 10 the Republic will draw forth all the
talent Of the National Legislature. To bring its
ing day, while measures are maturing is, in effect,
to bring the whole nation into council. The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol the emotest
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 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 ablcst
Reporters yet known 20 Congress; its materials
and machinery of the best sort and the exclu-
siye devotion Of the individual who for so many
years has made it his study to embody and publish
the abors OF Congress gives reason to hope that
advance will be made in the Accomplishment of this
undertaking commensurate with It's increased inn
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 failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronse il 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, dcfray the expense Of reporting,
and give them circulation rs Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher 10 bear the charge Of reporting and
IL will give impulse 10 the circulation Of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
ercd,) will yet yield sufficient profit to make the
system permanent

machinery and material-bccomes the sole propric-
tor thereof, and will give his exclusive attention TO
