THE GLOBE-THE CONGRESSIONAL NEWS
PAPER.s .
IHE approach of Congress calls for the renewal
of my proposals and preparations to spread i,s |
debates before the public. The success which mas
hitherto attended this undertaking it is hoped wl
continue, and enable me to perpetuate the full
history ofthe proceedings and discussions OF the
body on which the destiny Of the Republic ae- (
ponds.
The adoption of Congress has given the GLosE
an official character the reporter of all tina, As
said and done in the body. This sanction has
been voted ut every successive session for many
years, and by members Of all parties The press.
too of all parties has borne testimony TO the hdc-
ty with which the duty thus confded has been
performed. The annexed notices, taken at ran
dom from the general expression in favor or the
work, are submitted in proof of its falness, tar
ness, and usefulness | am compelled to omit,

The great CELEBRITY with which the letter writers
for the distant press circulate through the tae-
graph their hurried accounts and views of the
debates Of Congress-, renders more Important than
ever the full and exact official reports of the Cox
eREssIoNAL GLOBE. The hasty, and in many
instances parie, relations by telegraph OF what
occurs in Congress supersede, for the most part,
the exact reports taken down hv reporters, ana
winch formerly, IN shape more or less abhr--
telegraph accounts, with all their inperfectlons
and variety chickering's, take the run of the coun-
try, and no press but the official Of Congress ever
publishes the full debate with the proceedings Of
both Houses unmutilated. Indeed, no newspaper
can give them, and have room for advertisements
and the miscellaneous matter essential to their sx-
stence. While, therefore, the telegraph adminlu-
tiers to the eager appetite ofthe public for Congress-
news, and meets the necessities of the political
press, by furnishing rapidly-written epitome
suited to the taste of it's patrons, perfect Informal
ton of what passes in Congress is greatly dimni-
ished. The circulation ofthe official reports has
been, to extent, cut off by the crude an
diversified accounts which, flying along the electro
W res, satisfies curiosity, and 1t is almost IN VAIN
that truth puts on his boots to follow. Still there
are great many men oflesure and thought VINO
like to see wi at is actually said and done in Con-
gress, and to Judge for themselves rather than 70
receive Impressions altogether from galvanlc bat
| teries. There others, too, who, for the sake
of the future, willingly patrOnize d work which
preservesa full record Of the doings of the great
moving and controlling power Of the Republic
The undersigned has made preparations com
mensurate with the increased importance of TN
duty he has undertaken as the only reporter and
publisher of the complete debates and proceedings
OF both Houses of Congress. The coming SEES
sion will probably be extended nine months, ant
the reports will not be comprised in less than 35Ut
royal uuurtu pages Of BREWER and nonparei type
making A volumes of near 800 pages each -
| The reports for the last long session made 1896
! royal quarto pages, and were bound in four vol
| umes, averaging 974 royal quarto pages each
| will publish in the APPENDIX for the next SEES
sion all laws that may be passed during the SEES
| 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 it has been for several years
past. ~
The DAILY GLom will be published during the
session on superfine double royal sheet. II will
| contain the debates taken down by the report
ers and as sltered by the speakers, whenever they
make any alterations; the current news of the
day. and miscellaneous matter. The main oblec,
for publishing The daily paper is, to enable Mem
bers to see their remarks in it, and alter them iftneY
shall think proper before they are Published IN the
| CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and APPENDIX.
The ConaREsslonAL GLOBE is made up of the
day proceedings of the two Houses Of Congress,
and printed on double royal paper, with small
type, (brevier and nonpareil,) in quarto form,
each number containing sixteen royal quarto
| pages The speeches of the Members, IN this first
| form, are sometime conference.-the full report OF
the prepared speeches being reserved for the AP-
rENprx All resolutions, motions, and other pro-
ceedngs, are given in the form of the Journals,
with the yeas and nays every important queD-
| ton. 1900 et
The APPENDIX is made up Of the Presidents
/ Anaua Message, the Reports of the principal
Officers of the Government that accompany 1t, and
all Speeches of Members Of Congress, written
| out or revised by themselves II is printed 10 the
same form as the CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, and
| usually makes about the same number or pages
during session.
During the first month or uix weeks Of a ses-
sion there is rarely more business done than will
| make two numbers Il week--one of the CoNGREs-
| SOCIAL GLOBE and one OF the APPENDIX; but dur
ing the remainder of a session, there is usually
sufficient matter for two or three numbers OF each
every week The next session will be unusually
interesting therefore, we calculate that the Con-
cREssroNAi GLOBE and APPENDIX together Will
make at least $500 large quartr pages, printed IN
small type--brevier and noni,areil- we furnish
complete Indexes to both at the end OF a session.
We will endeayor to print sufficient number Of
surpuscopies supply all that may be miscarrled'
| or lost in the mails but subscribers should be
very particular to file their papers carefully, for
fear that we should not be able to supply all the
| lost numbers.
If subscribers shall not be satisfied with the
WORT, the money paid by them for 1t will be re-
| funded to them whenever they return the numbers
which have been received by them. will give
the subscription price for any previous volumes OF
| the CoNGuEssioNAL GLOBE or the APPENDIX, and
! will thank any person who will let me have them.

| CoSGREssloNAL GLOBE and APPENDIX for sale at
| As a volume bound, which 1t IL probable will be
| disposed OF soon and when they are, they will
| then. no doubt, command at least $40 a volume,
as they cannot be reprnted for less than that sum
