TIE GLORE-TNE Cen0RE sl0HAL NEW
PAPER.
The approach of Congress calls for the renewal
of my proposals and preparations to spread its
debates before the public. The success which mas
hitherto attended this undertaking it il hoped will
continue, and enable me to perpetuate the full
history of the proceedings and discussions Of the
body on which the destiny of the Republic ae-
ponds.
The adoption Of Congress has given the GIosE
an official character a. the reporter of all that s
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 6dss
| ity with which the duty thus con6ded has been
performed. The annexed notices, taken at ran
| dom from the general expression in favor Of the
work. are submitted in proof Of its fullness fair-
ness, and usefulness, ! am compelled 70 omit,
for want of room, page Of notices which are ~
type -,
for the distant press circulate through the tsie-
| graph their hurried accounts and views of the
debates Of Congress, renders more important than
ever the full and exact official reports of tho Con-
OCCASIONAL GLOBE. The hasty, and IN many
instances er parts, relations by telegraph OF what
occurs in Congress superseds, for the most part,
| the exact reports taken down by reporters, and
which formerly, IN a shape more or less abbrs-
yiated. went the rounds Of the press. Now the
telegraph ACCOUNTS, with all their imperfections
and variety ofcolorngs, lake the run of the coun-
try, and no press but the omc'ai OF congress ever
publishes the full debate with the proceedings Of
both Houses unmutilatsd. Indeed, no newspaDsr
can give them, and have room for advertisements
| and the miscellaneous matter essential to their sx-
istence. While, therefore, the telegraph admins
ers to the eager appetite ofthe public for Congress
news, and meets the necessities OF the political
press, by furnishing rapidly-writtsn cpitome
uited to The taste of its patrons, perfect informa
ton of what passes in Congress IS greatly dimin-
;shed The circulation of the Official reports has
been to some extent, cut off by the crude and
diversified accounts which, flying along the electric
wires, satisfies cuyosity and it is almost IN VAN
that truth puts on his boots TO follpY eltl Insfs
like to see what is actually said and done in Con-
eress. and to Judge for themselves, rather than to
| receive impressions altogether nom galyanc bat
teries. There are others, too, who, for the sake
of the future, willingly patron,ze work which
preserves full record Of the do!ngs OF inc great
moving and controlling power OF the Republic

contain the debates as taken down ny the report
ers. and as slered by the speakers, whenever they
make any alterations; the current news Of the
day, and miscellaneous matter. The main object
FIR nnblising the daily paper is, to enable Mem.
bers to see their remarks in it, and alter them fthey
shall think proper before they are published In the
CoNoREssIoHAL GLOBE and APPENDIX
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE is made up of the
da;v proceedings of the two Houses of Congress-
and printed on a double royal paper, with small
TYNE. (brevier and nonpareil,) in quarto form,
each number containing sixteen royal quarto
pages. The speeches Of the Members, IN this hrst
Form. are sometime condensed-the full report OF
the prepared speeches being reserved TOT inc Af-
pENp,x. All resolutions, motions, and other pro-
ceedings. are given in the form of the Journals,
with the yeas and nays on every important ques-
The APPENDIX is made up of the Presidents
Annual Message, the Reports of the principal
Officers of the Government that accompany IL, ana
| ali Sneeches of Members of Congress, written
ont or revised by themselves. 1t is printed in the
same form as the CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE, and
usually makes about the same number or pages
during session.
| During the first month or six weeks OF ses.
sion, there is rarely more business done than Will
| make two numbers d week--one of the CoNGREs-
sIonAI GLOBE and one Of the APPENDIX; but dur
| ing the remainder of session, there is usually
sufficient matter for two three numbers OF each
every week. The next session will be unusually
interesting therefore, we calculate that the CON-
| cREssIoNAL GLOBE and APPENDIX together VIII
make at least $500 large quarto pages, printed in
small tvne-breyier and nonpareil. We furnish
complete Indexes to both at the end OF session.
| We will endeavor to print sufficient number OF
surplus copies to supply all that may be miscarried
| 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
work, the money paid by them for it will be re-
| funded to them whenever they return the numbers
which have been received by them. will give
