THE DAILY GLOBE
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE.
In surreldering my interest in the organ OF
great political party, | cherished the purpose Of
continuing The Congressional Globe, and, if /
possible, IN lime, 10 perfect it TO full his
tory Of the acton Of Congress, giving the de-
bates accurately and fully with the proceedings /
all stamped with the verify of az official re-
cord From the passage iu the letter Of Get
eral Washinton, which | have quoted, it will
he preceived that he thought this office might be
combined with that of regular newspaper; and |
it is certain that The avidty Of the public for
news of The less important kind greatly contri-
butes to give wings 10 the weightier matter which
may be called Congressional news.
Having succeeded in my purpose Of perlec-
ting the reports Of the debates in Congress and
giving the official stamp, | now propose 10
sepd Them abroad, in connection with the news
Of the day, in such haste as shall outstrip full
and accurate intellence sent from the seat OF
Government in any other form whatever. 1t
will even anticipate the scraps of news forward
ed 10 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 will have reached
the post Office of that city by the Express Mail
OF the previous night. The process by which
this will be effected | now lay before the pub
lie. -=-F-.
| will have corps of sixteen Reporters in
Congress; each in succession will take notes
curing five minutes, then retire, prepare them
for the Press, put Them slip by slip in the hands
Of conpositors. and thus, while debate IS 60
ing on in Congress, it will be put in type, and
in few minutes after it is ended it will be in
print. | shall by this means be enabled to send
by the. E xpress Mail of O'Clock P. NJ. for the
East, West. and North, and by that Of 9 O'Clock
p. M. for the South, all the proceedings of Con-
gress up 10 the ordinary hour OF adjournment.
Thus The accurate debates Of Congress will
reach tbs ci les OF two hundred and fifty miles
fiom the Capitol before their daily morning pa
pers are III circulation.
The miscellaneous news l shall be careful to
gather from remote sections of the country by
telegraph. will obtain from the Executive
Departments, through official sources, the mat
ters of moment transacted in them, and. through
agents employed Tor the purpose, all the city
news of conse quence in sufficient time to be
put into The Globe and mailed in the Express
Mail trains. In this way hope to create an
| era in the dissemination ofnews from Washing
| ton. Hitherto no newspaper has attempted 10
| give authentic accounts ofthings done al Wash
lngon before the public mind al a distance had
| received its first impressions from irresponsible
telegraphc dispatches. or by letter-writers bias-
| ed 5y peculiar views
Washington has now become SO great cen.
Ter Of polillcal interest during all the year
| The proceedings of the Execu i've Departments
ano the information collected by them even
during The recess of Congress is of SO much i'm
portahce to the interests of every section Of the
counry-that shall continue The pub!ica loD
ofihe daily paper permanently, with view to
become the vehicle of the earliest and most cor
rect intelligence.
1t is a part of my plan TO reduce the price
of the daily paper t. half that Of similar daily
papers; aud thus hope 10 extend Its circula-
| lion so as to invite advertisements. 1t will pub
lish advertisements Of the Government To
subcribeTs in the cities hope 10 submit such
| terms as will induce them to advertise their
business In every village throughout the Union,
where the Globe is sent daily under the franks
of members OF Congress, all of whom take il,
and some OF them large number of copies.
/ The installation Of a new Administration
and new Congress portends much change in
the course of public affairs as 10 result OF the
next session. Many vast interests whlch were
brought up in the last Congress were laid over
by the Democratic mSjority 10 ava the action
Of Democratic Executive. The new mode
ling Of the tariff; the new land system: The
question of giving homesleads. and making
every man freeholder who may choose TO
become ore; the approximation ofthe Atlantic
and Pacific oceans by national railroad across
the territory ofihe Union; reform in the Army.
Navy ,und civil offices-all these great questions,
with ulhousandsmino rones. deeply affecting mul-
tiludes of men and every State in The Union,
will. now being matured by public opinion,
come up for the Governments decision These
new issues. cooperating with old ones, coming
up to be disposed ofby new actors on the scenes
at Washington, will be apt to modify greatly,
if not alter essentially, the party organizations
of the country.
To :hese elements of interest another is like
ly 10 be introduced by the interposition of the
agilations Of Europe. Alter nearly forty years
of peace in Europe there is an evident restless
ness that now seems fraught with tendencies
threatening war; and if war comes. IN all like
lhood there will follow such universal change
that the United States can scarcely hope TO
escape its vortex. Indeed from late event i,
is apparent that our Government is already
drawn into European difficulties, These cir.
cumsances are calculated TO draw the public
mind towards the next Congress with much ex.
pectation.
