THE GLOBE.
THE OFFICIAL PAPER or CONGRESS.

publish now my annual Prospectus Of The Dali
ly Globe, ard The Congressional Globe and Ap-
pendi x, to remind subscribers and inform hose
who may desire to subscribe, ,that Congress will
meet on the first Monday OF nett December, VIII en-
shall recominence publishing the above named
papers. They haye,been Published so long, that
most public men know their character, and there
fore deem it ncedless to give minute account Of
The Kind o. matter they will contain.
I The itAiy Glrbe will contain report OF the De-
batch in bntt branches of Congress as taken down
by reporters ccual. at least to any corps OF short
hand writer's liz this, or in any other country. A
majority of them will each, be able to report, rer-
batim, ten thousand words an hour, while the ave-
rage number of words spoken by fluent speakers
rarely exceeds seven thousand five hundred words
an hoyr. When the debates of day do not make
more than forty five columns, they will appear IN
the Daily Globe Of the next morning, which will
contain, also, the news OF the day, together with
such editorial articles may be suggested by pas
sing events.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will con-
ia n repor. Of all the Debates in Congress, revi-
sed by the speakers the Messages of the President
of the Unitod States, the Annual Reports Of the
Heads of the Executive Departments, the Laws
all. They will be printe on double royal sheet,
in book form, royal quarto size; each number con-
tanning sixteen pages. The whole will make, it is
believed, between 800 and 5000 pages, the long
tween those numbers, and the next session will be
long one. This believe is the cheapest work
ever sold in any country, whether reprint, or
printed from manuscript copy. taking for data the
the year 1885,. The average number Of pages is
1875, and the average number OF words on page
is 2,ssT, consequently the average number Of
Of long session is 8 ,290,772. AS have sold to
follows that they have paid lsas than sac and
half ccnts every 100, 600 rceras hare furnished
them, while have paid my reporters Sc. 20 for
every 1887 words, Of this work, ~ manuscript.

unusually interesting one, because the candidates
of the respective parties for President and Vice
President of the United States will be nominated
before it closes, and, therefore, the debates will be
mostly on such political questions as, 1t may DO
thought, will tend to influence public opinion in re-
gard to the persons to be Imported for these Offices
and the Globe Will be, it has been for many years
past, the only source from which the full debates OF
Congress can be obtained.
