1t will be seen by the annexed extract from a
letter Of General Washington TO David Stewart
dated New York, l7th March, 1890, that the idea
Of such paper as l propose to make the Globe,
originated in the mind Of the Father Of his Coun-
try. He said:
at is to be lamented that the editors Of the
different Gazettes in the Union do not more gen.
orally and more correctly (nsead ofstuffing their
papers with Scurrility and nonsensical declana.

Of the contents) publish the debates in Congress
