PROSPECTUS FOR 1.-THE GLOBE


rTvHE APPROACH OF CONGRESS calls for the
i renewal of my proposals. and preparations ; to
spread its debates before the pubic. Inc success
which has hitherto attended this undertaking tits
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
depends, ., .; ~. q o,v
an official character the reporter Of all that Is
said and done in the body. This sanction has been
voted at every successive session Tor many years:
and by members Of all parties. The press, too, OF
all parties, has borne testimony to the hdellty with
which the duty thus confded has been performed
The great celebrity with which the letter writer's
for the distant press circulate through the
their hurried accounts and views Of the debates OF
Congress, renders more important than ever the
full and exact official reports OF the CoHeRxssioNAL
GLOBE. The hasty, and in many instances e1 p0rH,
relations by telegraph of what occurs in Congress
supersede, for the part, the exact reports ia
ken down by reporters, and which Formerly IN
shape more or less abbreviated, went the rounds
of the press Now the telegraph accounts, with oil
their imperfecions and variety OF colofings, take
the run of the country, and no press but the Official
Of Congress- ever publishes the iulI usoa.e WIZ"
the proceedings of both Houses unmutiiated In
deed no newspaper can give them, and have room
for advertisements and the miscellaneous matter
essential to their existence. While, therefore, tne
telegraph administers to the eager appetite Of the
public for Congress news, and meets the nccessi'
ties of the political press, by furnishing rapidly
written eptome suited to the taste OF its patrons
perfect information of what passes In congress ID
greatly diminished. The circulation o the ofilcal
senorts has been. to some extent, cut of by the
erode and diversified accounts which, lying along
the electric wires satisfies curiosity, and IT Is al
,noat in vain that truth puts his boots to follow.
Still there are n great many men OF leisure and
thought who like to see what ID actually SAID ana
done in Congress, and toJuage 10, h .netlseres f,
aavanic batteries. There are Others too, who' ior
the sake of the future, willingly patroni1ea WORK
which preserves full record OF the ooings OF 1hc
great moving and controlling power OF the ke-
public.
The undersigned has made preparations com
mensurate with the increased Importance OF the
duty he has undertaken as the only reporter and
publisher of the complete debates and proceedings
of both Houses of Congress The coming session
will probably be extended nine months, and the
reports will not be comprised IN Tess .nsn 49,
making volumes Of near 900 pages each. The
reports for the last long session made $3.50 royal
quarto pages, and were bound IN Volumes ave-
raging 974 royal quarto pages each.
