The omcial Organ OF Congress and News
paper Tor the People.
! address my annual circular 10 the public an
prsing IL that the Globe will renew lis reports Of
the Congressional Debates al the next session of
Congress. IL Is hardly necessary 10 say that the
proceedings OF The next Congress will be OF vast
import 10 the country. The issues which have
been made in relation 10 slavery, connected with
the great interest which is always taken in Con-
gress IN relation 10 the nomination of presidential
candidates, will give intense excitement TO the
next session, which will be communicated 10 the
public. Whatever is debated in Congress will be
debated everywhere. The importance Of official
reports cannot therefore. be too highly estimated.
The country will pass upon the proceedings of
Congress as they progress. and public opinion, If
properly informed, will have salutary influence
upon the result.
The DAILY GLOBE will be printed on double
royal sheet al eleven O'Clock every morning, ex-
cept sunday, and will contain all the messages Of
the President OF the United States the reports of
the Executive Departments; the entire proceed
lngs oil Congress; the laws passed during the
session; and the news by telegraph and from
other sources upio the hour Of going 10 press
The debates in Congress frequently Gil lairl,.
forty, hy, and sometimes more than huMdted
columns day. Whenever they make NOR tlan
tWenty-eight columns day, extra shee arc

TUESDAYS CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE will " pub

proceedings OF Congress in condensed form; the

meni upon the times may be deemed suitable
10 the character of the paper When the debates
OF a week cannot be condensed into twenty
columns, and leave eight columns OF the sheet
Tor other matter and advertisements, an extra
sheet will be printed
The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE will be the revised
edition OF the proceedings contained in the Daily

sarily accompany them Complete indexes will
be made out and forwarded 10 subscribers soon

lose any numbers, they will be supplied at the
rate OF three cents for sixteen pages.
II ~ admitted by every competent Judge, whose
opinion have heard expressed on the subject
that the debates Of Congress are better reported
and sold lower than those of any other Legislative
body calculation which made for the Senate
OF The United States in April, 1854, shows that
Congress pays me for reporting and publishing
its debates IN the Daily Globe, and then in the
Congressional Globe and Appendix, only one
eleventh. The rate charged in England for publish
ing the debates Of Parliament, and about one
seUealth the average rate paid by the States of
pennsylvania, Maryland, and Kentucky, (Which
are all the States in which the prices paid had
then been ascerlained) for publishing their de-
bates in book form only. The debates of Con-
gress are offered TO subscribers, in this Prospec-
tns, for about half the price paid for them by
Congress-the expense of reporting, and then
publishing them in the Daily Globe to enable
members TO revise their remarks for the Congress.
sional Globe and Appendix, all paid for by
Congress, and do not form any part of the Sc
which an individual pays for them Calculations
showing the prices paid for debates are printed on
the fourth page of the paper.
