purpose OF continuing the Congressional
Globe, aud, if possible, in time, 10 perfect II
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 passage III
the letter OF General Washington, which /
have quoted, it will be perceived that he
thought This office might be combined with
that OF regular new spaper; and it is certain
that the ayIdiiy of the public for Jews Of the
less Important kind greatly contributes 10
give wings 10 tie weighiier matter which
may he called Congressional news.
Having succeeded in my purpose Of per-
feciing the reports OF The debates in Congress
and giving them The official stamp, ! now
| propose 10 send them abroad, in connection
with the news of The day, in such haste as
shall ouIsirip fun and accurate intelligence
sent from the seat OF Government in any
other form whatever. Ii will even antic
pate the scraps Of news forwarded to cities
within iw o hundred and fifty miles OF Wash

the Glote containing Them will have reached
The post nffice oi that city by the Express
Mail of the previous night. The process by
which this will be effected | now lay before
The public.

quence in sufficient time TO be put into the

trains. Ia this way hope 10 create new
era in tie dissemination of news from
Washington. Hitherto no newspaper has
attempted 10 give authentic accounts OF
things done al Washington before the pub

dispatches, or by letter writers biased by

The Installation of a new Administration
and new Congress poriends much change
in The course OF public affairs as the result
OF the next session. Many vast interests |
which were brought up in The last Congress
were laid over by the Democratic majority to |
await the action Of Democratic Executive. |
The new modelling OF the tariff; the new
land system; the question of giving home |
sleads, and making every man freeholder |
who may choose to become one; the approx
imatIun OF tie Atlantic AMI Pacific oceans |
~ a national railroad across the territory OF |
The Union, reform in the Army, Navy, and
civil officcs-all these great questions, with |
a thousand minor ones, deeply affecting |
OF men and every Stale in the
Uuion, will. now being matured by public o.
pinion come up for the Governments decis-
ION. These new issues, cooperating with
old ones. coming up TO he disposed of by
new actors on the scenes at Washington,

senilally, the party organizations OF the

liSeiv to be introduced by the interposition
OF the sgilaions Of Europe. After nearly
forty years of peace in Europe there is an
evident restlessness that now seems franghi
with tendencies threatening war; and il war
cones, ia all likelihood there will follow
such uDi, ersal change that the United
States can scarcely hope 10 escape It's yor-

that our Government is already drawn iuio
European difficulties. These circumstances
are calculated 10 draw the public mind TO
