sion. which has not been done heretofore. Al
though this will increase in no small degree the
expense OF the publication, the subscription price
will be the same that il has been for several years
past.

session a superhne double royal sheet. IL VIII
contain the debates taken down by the report
ers. and as sltered by the speakers whenever they
make any alterations; the current news of int

for publishing the daily paper is, to enable Mem

CoNeREssIosAL GLoBE and APPENDIX.
The CoscRrssioNAL 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,) in quarto form,
each number containing sixteen royal quarto
pages. The speeches Of the Members, in this hrst
FORM are sometime conference.-the full report OF
the prepared speeches being reserved for the AP-
prxpIx All resolutions, motions, and other pro-
ceedings are given in the form Of the Journals,
with the yeas and nays every important ques-
ton.
The APPENDIX is made-up OF the Presidents
Annual Message, the Reports OF the principal
Officers Of the Government that accompany II, and
all Speeches Of Members Of Congress, written
out or revised by themselves. Ii is printed in the
same form as the CoscRxsnoSkL GLoBE, and
usually makes about the same number OF pages
during session.
During the first month or six weeks Of SEES
sion, there il rarely more business done than will
make two numbers a week--one Of the CoHeRss-
uoyAI GLoBE and one Of the APPEEDn; but dur
ing the remainder OF session, there is usually
sufficient matter for two or three numbers of each
every week. The next session VIII be unusually
interesting therefore, we calculate that the Cor
