THE GLOBE,
IA Congressional, Agricultural, and Literary


THE approach Of Congress calls out the annual
i Prospectus of the GLoBE Establishment.
The time ia full of interest The coming in Of a
new Administration---thc consequent broaching of
new policy touching the internal concerns of the
Countrywide 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 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 so 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 are maturing is, in effect
to bring the whole nation into council The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol to the remotcs
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 Of the best sort; and the exclu-
sivc 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
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,-wi
render our enterprise a failure, unless Congress
shall so far patronise 1t as to become purchaser
Of such portion of the daily sheets issued as shall
contribute 70 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 as many daily
sheets for each Member, at the subscription price,
as WILL in part, defray the expense Of reporting,
and give them circulation ms Congressional docu-
mcnts in their several districts This will enable
the publisher to bear the charge of reporting, and
II will give an impulse to the circulation Of the
Congressional Print, which, although the cheapest
in the Union, (the expense of preparation consd-
ercd,) viii yet yield sufficient profit to make the
system permanent.
