THE approaching Congress calls out the an
nual prospectus of the Globe establishment.
The time is full of interest The coming in of
new administration-thc consequent broaching
ola new policy touching the internal concerns
of the Countrywide new and most important is
sues arising from the late vast accession to the
public domain, and the great national objects as
ISOLATED with 1.-THE impending difficulty in our
relations with France, and the possible compli
cation of our affairs with the troubles of Europe,
conspire to create great expectations as to the
proceedings of the next Congress. The APP
proaching session will probably continue till late
in the summer of 1850. The debates, from the
agitation of so many questions of vital interest
to the republic, will draw forth all the talent of
the national legislature. To bring it's delibcra-
tons home to the people, each succeeding
day, while measures are maturing, is in effect to
bring the whole national into council. The dis
cussion, spreading from the Capitol to the reno.
test parts Of the Union, forms public opinion
which reacts upon Congress, and controls its de-
cisions.
To become useful instrument however hum.
ble to assist the working of the admirable ma
chnery of our popular institutions, is the ambi-
ton Of the conductor OF the CLONE. Extraor-
binary preparations have therefore been made to
meet the increasing demands of our rapidly i'm
proving and growing country for congressional
intelligence
The GLOBE press has already enlisted the a.
blest reporters yet known to Congress-; its ma
chnery are of the best sort; and the exclusive
devotion of the individual who for so many years
has made it his study to e,nbody and publish the
labors OF Congress- g! yes reason 10 hope that an
| advance will be made in the accomplishment Of
| this undertaking commensurate with it's increas-
ed importance. But the accumulation Of cx-
pense consequent on the additional number of
reporters required-the extra charges incurred
in printing at ight the debates of the preceding
day-thc vast addition made to the mass publish
cd, by the protracted sessions and the fuller re-
ports z ven-will render our enterprise failure
unless Congress shall far patroniZe it as to be-
come purchaser of such portion Of the daily
sheets issued as shall contribute to make the re-
! ports that fill them. The undersigned has ven
tuecd on the preparation he has made for the next
session, in the expectation that Congress will
subscribe for as many daily sheets for each men,
Der, at the subscription price, will in part de-
Tray the expense of reporting, and give them Cir
culation as congressional documents in their Sc
veral districts. This will enable the publisher
to bear the charge Ct reporting; and it will give
an impulse to the circulation of the congrcssion-
al print, which, although the cheapest in the u
mon (thc expense of preparation considered)
will yet yield sufficient profit to make tile system
permanent.
John c. Rivcs having purchased the interest
of F. P. Blair in Jackson Hall-thc printing of
flee machinery and acknowledgements the sole
| proprietor thereof, and will give his exclusive
attention to the Congressional department. j.
c. Pickett will conduct the miscellaneous de-
partment Of the newspaper. +. P. Blair retires
from both concerns, with prayers for their per-
! mancnt usefulness aod prosperity.
| The Globe 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, 4 Congressional Globe,
and an Appendix.
The Weekly Globe will contain agricultural
and miscellaneous articles; and will occasional
y give debates of such Importance as command
universal interest
The price Of the Weekly Globe is reduced to
one dollar, with view to obtain a more gener-
al circulation Subscribers who have hitherto
paid 81 per annunl, will be charged only 81 at:
ter the expiration the first year.
The Congressional Globe will imbody, as it
has done for the last sixteen years, COMPRESSION
al proceedings and debates exclusively
| The Appendix will embrace the revised speech
cs separately, and the messages of the President
Of the United States and the reports ofthe heads
Of the executive departments.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
be published rs fast as the proceedings Of Con-
gross will maze 4 number. Subscribers may
expect one number OF each week during the first
| four weeks of session, and two or three num-
| bers Of each week afterwards, until the end of
the session. Each volume will probably COM
prise two thousand royal quarto pages Of small
! type.
Complete indexes to the Congressional Glebe
and Appendix will be sent to subscribers soon
| after Congress adiou.ns.
Nothing of a political party aspect will appear
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.
