THE GLOBE:

great political party, cherished the purpose off
continuing the Congressional Globe, and, il possi-
bic in time to perfect it into full history Of the
action Of Congress, giving the debates accurately
and fully with the proceedngs-all stamped with
the verify Of an official record. From the passagel
in the letter Of General Washington, which have
quoted it will he perceived that he thought this Of
flee might be combined with that of regular news
paper and it is certain that the avdity Of the pub
lie for news Of the less important kind greatly con-
tributes to give wings the weightier matter which
may be called Congressional news.
Having succeeded in my purpose Of pcrfecting
the reports Of the debates in Congress and giving
them the official stamp, now propose to send them
abroad in connection with the news ei the day, in
such haste as shall outstrip full and accurate in
tclligence sent from the seat of Government in any
form whatever. 1t will even anticipate the
scraps of news forwarded to cities within two hun
lred and fifty miles Of Washington by Telegraph
Before the events thus transmitted are published
in tho morning papers, lOr instance, OF the city OF
New York; the Globe containing them viii have
reached the post Office Of that city by the Express
Mail of the previous night. The process by which
this viii be effected now lay before the public.
will have a corps Of sixteen Reporters in Con
grcss each in succession will take notes during five
minutes, then retire, prepare them for the Press,
put them slip by slip in tic hands Of compostors,
and thus, while debate is going in Congress, it
will be put IN type and in few minuets after il IL

0 o'clock p. VI. for the South, all the proceedings
Of Congress up TO the ordinary hour ofadjournmcnt
Thus the accurate debates of Congress will reach
the cities two hundred and fifty miles from the Cap
itol before their daily morning papers arc in crcu-
lation.
The miscellaneous news shall bc careful to gath
er from remote sections Of the country by telegraph
will obtain from the Executive Departments,
through official sources, the matters Of moment
transacted in them, and through agents employed
for the purpose, all the city news of consequence in
sufficient time TO be put into Hhc Globe and mailed in
The Express Maltrains In this way hope to create
Il now era i'm the dissemination of news from Wash
ingtou. Hitherto no newspaper has attempted to
giyc authentic accounts of things done at Washing
ton before the public mind at distance had re-
lcciycd its first impressions from irresponsible tce-
graphic dispatches, or by lcttcr-wrers biased by
peculiar views.
Washington has now become so great center Of
political interest during all the ycar--the procee-
dings Of the Executive Departments and the infor-
nation collected by them even during the recess Of
of every section of the country-that shall con-
tinue the publication Of the daily paper permanent
y. with view to become tho vehicle Of the earli-
est and most correctintclligence.
! ltis part ofmy plan to reduce the price Of the
daily paper to half that Of similar daily papers and
vito advertisements. will publish advertisements
of the Government. To subscribers in the cities ]
hope to submit such terms as will induce them Ia
advertise their business in every village through
out the Union, whore the Globe is sent daily under
the franks Of members Of Congress, all of whom
take it, and ncof them large number Of COP
les.
! The installation Of now Administration and a
new Congress portcnds much change in the course
ofpublic affairs the result of the next session..
Many vast interests which were brought up in the
last Congress were laid over by the Democratic ma
iority to awaitthc action Of a Democratic Exccu
tive. The new modelling of the tariff; the new land
f system; the question Of giving homcsteads, and
making every man frechoder who may choose tC
become one; the approximation of the Atlantic and
Pacific oceans by national railroad across the ter
ritory of the Union: reform in the Army, Navy
and civil ofices-all these great questions, with
thousand minor ones, deeply affecting mutitudcs o
men aud every State in the Union, will, now being
= maturcd by public opinion, come up for the Gov
ernments decision. These new issues, coopera
ting with old ones, coming upto be disposed Of by
new actors on the scenes at Washington, will b,
apt to modify greatly If not alter essentially, Tho
party organizations OF the country.
10 these elements of interest another is likely {,
be introduced by tho intorposit0n of the agitaton'
of Europe. After nearly forty years Of peace il
, Europe there is an evident roSlcssncss that nov

: circumstances are calculated to draw the public
mind towards the next Congress with much cxpec
