PROSPECTUS FOR "THE GLOBE"

PROSPECTUS FOR "FHE GLOhh'
THE CONGRESSIONAL NEWSPAPER.
TIME APPROACH OF CONGRESS calls Tor the
l. renewal ofmy proposals and preparations 70
spread its debates before the pubic Inc success
which has hitherto attended this undertaking is
hoped will continue and enable me TO perpetoate
the full history OF the proceedings ana discussions
of the body on which the destiny OF the Republic
depends = c, no.. ,ven tho C,onr
an 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 ndehty WIN
which the duty thus contided has been performed.
The great celebrity with which the letter writers
for the distant press uate through the telegraph
their hurried accounts and views OF the debates OF
Congress, renders more important than ever the
full and exact official reports the CoNGREssioNAL
GLOBE The hasty, and in many instances eI parR,
relations by telegraph of what occurs in Congress
supersedc for the most part, the exact reports Ia
ken down by reporters, and which formerly III
shape more or less abbreviated, went the rounos
of the press Now the telegraph accounts, with All
their inperfectons and variety OF colorings, take
the run of the country, and press but the oncla
of Congress ever publishes the iuii oeoate WIN
the proceedings of both Houses unmutllated. IN
deed, no newspaper can give them, and have room
for advertisements and the miscellaneous matter
essential to their existence. While, therefore, the
tecgra ph administers to the eager appetite oil tie
public for Congress news, ana meets inc heccssi-
written eptome suited to the taste OF Its patrons,
perfect information of what passes In Congress is
greatly diminished. The circulation OF the olilcial
reports has been, to some extent, cut OH py inc
crude and diversified accounts which, nying aohg
the electric wires satisfies curiosity and 1t Is al
most in vain that truth puts on his Doots 10 'olo"
Still there great many men OF leisure ahu
thought who like to what is actually SAID ana
done in Congress, and to Judge LOT themselves
rather than TO receive impressions altogether from
galvanc batteries. There are others, 100, who ior
the sake of the future, willingly patronizea woth
which preserves full record OF the dolngs OF Ihe
great moving and controlling power OF the he-
public. ,; .o,,,
The undersigned has made preparations com
mensuratc with the increased importance VI 'ne

publisher of the complete debates and proceedings
of both Houses Of Congress. The coming session
