TIME 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 Administration-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 with it,
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 30 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
Hcussion, 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
| bic, 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 abest
! Reporters yet known TO Congress- its materials
and machinery are of the best sort and the exclu-
sive devotion of the individual who for SO many
years has made il his study TO embody 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
rcquired-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,wl
| render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronise il as to become purchaser
of such portion of the daily sheets issued as shall
contribute to make the reports that fill them The
in he ned has Tho ion h,,
has made for the next Session in the expectation
that Congress will subscribe for many daily
sheets for each Member, ut the subscription price,
as will, in part, defray the expense of reporting,
and give them circulation Congressional docu-
ments in their several districts. This will enable
the publisher to bear the charge of reporting, and
1t will give an impulse 10 the circulation of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
| in the Union, (the expense of preparation consd-
ered,) will yet yield sufficient profit to make the
! system permanent.
| JOHN c. RIvEs having purchased the interest OF
| f. p. BLAZE 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. G. PICKETT will
conductive Miscellaneous Department of the News
paper. +. p. BLAIR retires from both concerns,
with prayers for their permanent usefulness and
| prosperity
The GLosE will be published daily during the
session OF Congress, and weekly the remainder of
the year; and will undergo distribution in the form
|
| an APPENDIX
/ The WEEKLY Clone will contain Agricultural
and miscellaneous articles; and will occasionally
| give debates of such importance as command uni
versal interest.
| The price of the WEEKLY GLOBE is reduced to
one dollar, with "a view to obtain general
circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto paid
I 81 per annum will be charged only Is after the
expiration OF the first year.
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE will cmbody, ii
has done for the last sixteen years, Congressional
proceedings and debates exclusively.
The APPENDIX viii 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 fast as the proceedings of Congress
will make number. Subscribers may expect one
number OF each week during the first four weeks
of session, and two three numbers of each a
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 GLOBE
and APPENDIX will be sent TO subscribers soon after
Congress adjourns.
Nothing of political party aspect willappear in
the GLOBE save that which will be found in the
Congressional Reports A paper assuming to be
an impartial vehicle for all sides cannot maintain
its character if the editorial columns reflect party
hue. /.
