public. The success which has hitherto
attended this undertaking il is hoped vii
continue, and enable me to perpeiuale
the fulI history Of the proceedings and
d scussicns Of the body on which the
destiny Of the Republic depends.
The adoption Of Congress has given
The GLOBE an official character as the
reporter Of all that is said and done in
the body. This sanction has been voted
at every successive session for many
yeats, and by members Of all parties.
The press, ioo, Of all parties has horne
testimony to the fidelity with which the
duty thus conhded has been performed

from the general expression in favor ol

The great celebrity with which the

ever the full and exac, official reports Of
The CoNeRBssI NAL Gu BE- The hasiy,
and in many instances er parte, relations
by telegraph of what occurs in Congress
supersede, for the most par', the exac'
reports taken down by reporters, and
which formerly, in shape more or less

Now the telegraph accounts, with all their

press, by furnishing rapdly.wrl'en

Congress is greatly diminished. The

many men of leisure and thought who like
10 see what is actually said and done in
Congress, and to Judge for themselves,
rather than to receive impressions alto

are Others, too, who, for The sake Of the
future, willingly patronize work which
preserves a full record of the doings Of
The great moving and controlling power

IL there ever was tine when the
action Of Congress should be looked tt"

in every movement at the next session,
and there will scarcely be measure in

have some bearing on that all-rbsorblng

respective parties are called together to
