TIE DAILY GLOBE
AND
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLoBg.
In surrendering my interest in the organ Of q
great political party, cherished the purpose Of
continuing the Congressional Globe, und, if
possible, IN time, 10 perfect it 10 full his
Tory Of the action Of Congress, giving the de-
bates accurately and fully with the proceedings
ali stamped with the verify of an official re.
cord From the passage in the letter Of GeL-
eral WashintoD, which have quoted, it will
be preceived that he thought this Office might be
combined with lho. of regular newspaper; and
it Is certain that the avidlty Of the public for
news OF the less important kind greatly contii-
buies to give wings to the weightier matter which
may be called Congressional news.
Having succeeded in my purpose of perfec-
ting the reports of The debates in Congress and
giving the official stamp, | now propose 10
send them abroad, in connection with the news
of the day, in such haste as shall outstrip full
| and accurate iniellence sent from The seat Of
Government in any other form whatever. 1t
will even anticipate the scraps of news forward
ed to cities within two hundred and fifty miles
of Washington by telegraph. Before the events
thus transmitted are published in the morning
papers. (for instance, of the city Of New York,
the Globe containing them vii! have reached
the post Office of thu, city by the Express Mail
of the previous night. The process by Which
this will be effected now lay before the pub
| lie.
will have a corps Of sixteen Reporters in
| Congress; each in succession will lake notes
du ing five minutes, then retire, prepare them
for the Press. put Them sip by SLIP in The hand,
Of compositors. and thus, Wills Il debate is 60.
irg on iii Congress. il will be put in type, and
ia u few minutes after il is ended it will be in
print: shall by this means be enabled to send
| by the Express Mail Of n'clock p. Nj. TO. the
lGas'; w est. and North. anI By that Of 8 n'ciock
Z. N. for the S0mh; ail TIE proceedings of Cor
gress up TO The culinary bGur nf adjournment.
| Thus The accurate debates Of Congress will
reach ihs ci les OF two hundred and fifty mics
from the Capt oil before their dai morning pa
pers in circulation.
The miscellaneous news shall be careful to
gather from remote sections of the country by
e'egraph. | will obtain from the Executive
/ Departments, through official sources, the mat
! tafs OF moment transacted ID them, and. through
gents emr'ol ed for the purpose, all the city
hews Of Gems. qnece in sufficient time to be

Mpi irair.:: In this way | hope 10 create an
era in tn. i>semination Of news from Washing

give au,helt &c accounts Of things done ai Wash.
ington before the public mind at distance had
received its first impressons from irresponsible
telegraphic dispatches, or by le,serwriters bins
ed by peculiar views.
| Washington has now become so great a cen.
Ter Of political interest during all the year
the proceedings Of the Executive Departments
anG the Information. collected by them even
during the recess of Congress is of SO much i'm
portance to The interests of every section Of the
country-ihai shall continue The publication
of the daily paper permanently. with a view to
become the vehicle Of the earliest and most cor.
rect intelligence.
1t is part Of my plan 10 reduce the price
of the daily paper to half thai of similar daily
papers; and thus | hope 10 extend Its circua.
ton SO as 10 invite advertisements 1t will pub
lsh advertisements Of the Government. To
subc,ibers in the cities | hope TO submit such
terms as will induce them TO advertise iheii
business in every village throughout the Union,
where the Globe is sent daily under the franks
of members Of Congress; all of whom take it.

| The installation Of new Administration
and new Congress portends much change III
the course Of public affairs as TO result OF The
next session. Many vas, interests which were
brought up in the las, Congress were laid ove
by the Democratic mpjority 10 ava the actor
of Democratic Executive. The new mode
ling Of the tariff; the new land system: lhs
question Of giving homesleads, and making
every man freeholder who may choose IL
become ore; the approximation ofths Atlantic
and Pacific oceans by national railroad acros:
the territory the Union; reform in the Army
Navy.and civil ofices-all these great questions
with a thousand mino rones. deeply affecting mu|
tudes of men and every State in the Union
will, now being ma,ured by public opinion
come up for the Governments decision. Thes
: new issues, cooperating with old ones, comm
!. up to be disposed of by new actors on the scene
at Washington, will be apt to modify greatly
if not alter essentially, the patty organization
Of the country.
To these elements Of interest another is like
ly TO be introduced by the interposition Of th
> gi.ations of Europe. Afier nearly forty year
of peace in Europe there is an evident restless
ness that now seems .fraught with tendenc:s
threatening war; and il war comes. in all like
hhood there will follow such universal chang
that the United States can scarcely hope
escape its vortex. Indeed from late event
: is apparre rent that our Government is alread
n drawn into European difficulties. These ci
cums,ances are calculated TO draw the publ
mind towards the next Congress with much e'
= peciation.
