! TIME approach of Congress calls out the annual
! i Prospectus-of the GLOBE Establishment.
| The time is full of interest. The coming in OF
new Administraton-the consequent broaching of
"A new policy touching the internal concerns OF the
| countryside 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 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 10 the Republic, will draw forth all the
talent OF the National Legislature. To bring its
deliberations home to the people, 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 remotest
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 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 of the best sort and the excu-
sive devotion of the individual who for 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 its increased inn
| portance. But the accumulation of expense con-
sequent on the additional number of Reporters
requred--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,-wifl
render our enterprise failure, unless Congress
shall 50 far patronise 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 vcntured on the preparation he
has Ia .tat,n
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-
| 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.
JOHN C. RrvEs having purchased the interest of
| 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. +. p. BLAIR retres from both concerns,
with prayers for their permanent usefulness and
prosperity.

session of Congress, and weekly the remainder of
| the year; and will undergo distribution in the form
| OF a WEEKLY GLOBE, a CONGRESSIONAL LOBE, and
an APPENDIX.
\ The WEEKLY GLOBE will contain Agricultural
and miscellaneous articles; and will occasionally
| give debates of such importance as command uni
| yersal interest.
The price of the WEEKLY GLOBE is reduced TO

circulation. Subscribers who have hitherto paid
| So per annum will be charged only S. after the

has done for the last sixteen years. Congressional
proceedings and debates exclusively
| The APPENDIX will embrace the revised speeches

the United States and the reports of the Heads of

! The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and APPENDIX will
be published fast the proceedings of Congress
will make a number. Subscribers may expect one
number of each a week during the first four weeks
OF a session, and two or three numbers of each
week afterwards, until the end of the session Each
