r SHALL PUBLISH THE DAILY GLOBE and
i the CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and APPEN-
DIX during the next session of Congress The
DAILY GLOBE will contain a report OF the De-
bates in both branches of Congress as taken down
by reporters equal at least, to any corps OF short
hand writer's in this, or any other country. when
the debates of the day do not make more than
forty-fve columns, they shall appear in the Daily
Globe of the next morning, which will contain,
also, the of the day, together with such edi-
events.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
contain report of all the Debates in Congress,
revised by the speakers, the Messages Of the Pre-
sident of the United States, the Annual Reports OF
the Heads of the Executive Departments, the Re-
ports of COMMITTEES of Congress ON important
subjects of general interest, the Laws passed du-
ring the session, and copious indexes to all, They
will be printed ON double royal sheet, in book
form, royal quarto size, each number containing
sixteen pages averaging 1897 words per page.
The whole will make between 200 and $500 pages:
1t is believed that no book has ever been published
at so low rate. Last year L advertised IN the
Daily Globe, for about six months, and IN about
one hundred other newspapers in the United
States, reward of $2l5, to be paid to any person
who would produce book published at so low
rate, and none was produced. The large number
OF copies subscribed for by Congress enables me
to afford the Debates to subscribers so cheap.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix pass
free through the mails os ~: ~. United States will
be seen by reading the following joint resolution
by Congress the 9th Of August, 1859:
