for the Globe
the Congressional News

paper.
| Il al OF my proposals and preparations to
spread its debates before the public. The success
is hoped will continue, and enable me to perpet-
uate the full history of the proceedings and dis
cussions of the body on which the destiny of the
republic depends.
The adoption of Congress has given the GLOBE
official character the reporter of all that is
said and done in the body. This sanction has
been voted at every successive session for many
years. and by members of all parties The press,
too, of all parties has borne testimony to the del
ity with which the duty thus conilded has been
| performed
The great celebrity with which the lotter-writers
for the distant press circulate through the tele-
graph their hurried accounts and views of the de-
ever tho full and exact official reports of the Con-
GREssIoNAL GLOBE. The hasty-and in many in
stances EX PARTE-relations by telegraph of what
occurs in Congress supersede, for the most part,
the exact reports taken down by reporters and
which formerly Tin shape more or less abbroVi
| ated, went the rounds of the press. Now the
telegraph accounts, with all their imperfections
and variety of colorings, take the run of the
country, and no press but the official of Congress
ever publishes the full debate with the proceed
ings of both houses unmutilated Indeed no
newspaper can give them and have room for adj
! vertisemcnts and the miscellaneous matter essen
tial to their existence While, therefore, the tel
egTaph administers to the eager appetite of the
public for Congress news, and meets the nccessi-
ties OF the political press by furnishing rapidly
written epitome suited to the taste of its patrons
perfect information of what passes in Congress is
greatly diminished. The circulation of the Off
cial reports has been, to some extent, cut off by
4 the crude and diversified accounts which, flying
along the electric wires, satisfy curiosity, and it
is almost in vain that Truth puts on his boots to
follow. Still there are q great many mon of
leisure and thought who like to see what is ncu-
ally said and done in Congress, and tojudge for
themselves, rather than to receive impressions al
together from galvanc batteries. There are 9TH
ers too, who for the sake of the future, willingly
patronlze awoTk which preserves full record of
the dongs of the great moving and controlling
power of the republic.
The undersigned has made preparations com
mensurate with the increased Importance of the
publisher of the complete debates ana proceed
Session w pr aS@sGS P be The SEEMING
and the reP0Sts will not be comprised in less
than $500 royal quarto pages of BREWER and non
Pareil type, making four volumes of near 300
pages each. The reports for the last long session
made 1886 royal quarto pages, and were bound
IN four volumes, averaging 974 royal quarto pages
l will publish in the ArrEND1x for the next
session all laws that may be passed during tho
session, which has not been done heretofore. AL
though this will increase in small degree the
expense of the publication, the subscription price
will be the same that it has been for several
years past.
The DAILY GLOBE will be published during the
session on superfne double royal sheet. twill
contain the debates taken down by the re-
Porters, and as altered by the speakers, whenever
the day, and miscellaneous matter. The main
object for publishing the daily paper is TO enable
members to sec their remarks in it and alter
them, if they shall think proper before they are
published i'll the CONGREssIoNAL GLOBE and Ar
PESDIx.
The CONoEEssIoNAL GLOBE is made up of the
daily proceedings of the two houses of Congress.
and printed on double royal paper with small
type, brewer and nonPareil,l in quarto form,
eHch number containing sixteen royal quarto
pages. The speeches of the members in this first
form are sometimes condensed, the full report of
the prepared speeches being reserved for the Ar
PLNDIX. All resolutions, motions, and other pro-
ceedlngs, are given in the form of the journals
ton. ~
, The APPENDIX is made up Of the Presidents
annual message, the reports Of the principal oil
GERS of the government that accompany it, and
all speeches of members of Congress, written out
or revised by themselves. 1t is printed in the
same form as the CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and
usually makes about the same number Of pages
during session.
During the first month or six weeks Of session
there is rarely more business done than will make
two numbers n week-one of the CoNGREssIoSAL
GLOBE and one Of the APPENDIX F.; but during the
remainder of n session there is usually sufficient
matter for two or three numbers of each every
week. he next session will be unusually into
resting. Therefore calculate that the CoNGREs-
| tioEAL SLoEE and APrENDIx together will make
az least 5000 large quartO pages, printed in small
| tyPe-bTeyier and nonpaTeil. Complete indexes
to:boh will be furnished at the end Of a session.
Will endeavor to print sufficient number Of
surplus copies to supply all that may be rniscar-
Tied or lost in the mails but subscribers should
