PROSPECTUS FOR "THE GLOBE"
THE CONGRESSIONAL NEWSPAPER.
| TTNHE APPROACH OF CONGRESS calls for the
Il renewal OF my proposals. and preparations to
spread it's debates before the public The success
which has hitherto attended this undertaking it is
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
The adoption of Congress has given the LOBE
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 fidelity with
which the duty thus confided has been performed.
The great celebrity with which the letter
for the distant press circulate through the telegraph
their hurried accounts and views Of the debates of
Congress, renders more important than ever the
full and exact official reports ofthe CONGRESSIONAL
GLoBE. The hasty, and in many instances er p0rte,
relations by telegraph of what occurs in Congress
supersede for the most part the exact reports ta-
ken down by reporters, and which formerly, in
shape or less abbreviated, went the rounds
of the press. Now the telegraph accounts, with all
their imperfections and variety Of colorngs, take
the of the country, and press bat the official
OF Congress ever publishes the full debate with
the proceedings Of both Houses unmutilated. In
for advertisements and the miscellaneous matter
essential to their existence While, therefore, the
telegraph administers to the eager appetite Of the
public for Congress news, and meets the necessi
ties OF the political press, by furnishing rapidly
written epitome suited to the taste of its patrons
perfect in formation Of what passes in Congress is
greatly diminished 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 curiosity, and il is al
most in vain that truth puts on his boots to follow
Still there are great many men OF leisure and
thought who like to see what is actually said and
done in Congress, and to judge for themselves,
rather than 10 receive impressions altogether from
galvanic batteries There are Others too, who, for
the sake of the future, willingly patronzea work
which preserves full record OF the doings Of the
great moving and controlling power Of the Re- |
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 proceeding gs
OF both Houses Of Congress. The coming session |
will probably be extended nine months, and the |
reports will not be comprised in less than $500 |
royal quarto pages OF BREWER and nonpArel type,
making volumes of near 600 pages each. The |
reports for the last long scsHon made 1886 royal
quarto pages, and were bound in volumes, ave ]
raging ga royal quarto paecs each.

sion all laws that may be passed during the ses. |
sion, which hasnot been done heretofore. Although |
this will increase in small degree the expense of
same that IL has been for several years past.
The DAILY GLoBE Will be published during the |
session on superhne double royal sheet. IL will |
contain the debates taken down by the report. /
ers, and az altered by the speakers, whenever they
make any alterations; the current Of the day,
and miscellaneous matter The main object for |
publishing the daily paper is to enable Members

shall think proper before they published in the |
G LOBE and APPENDIX.

daily proceedings Of the two Houses Of Congress- |

Of the Government that accompany IL, and all
