long sessions for many years past have ranged
between those numbers, and the next session
will I've IL long one. This believe is The cheap

king for data the average numbtr of words OF
The long sessions since the year ls48 The
average number OF pages is 3,s7e, and the av-
ernge number words on page is 2 397, on
seQuen,ly tn. average number OF words of a
long session is s,2s0,772 As | have sold TO
subscribers that number Of wurds for str dol

s,z and one half csnts for every 100000 scords
have furnished them, while have paid my
reporters So 30 Tor every 1891 words, Ut this
work, in manuscript.
The coming session will, without doubt, be
an unusually interesting one, because the CALI
dates OF the respective parties for President
and Vice President Of the United States will
he nominated before 1t closes, and, therefore,
the debates will be mostly on such political
questions as, it may be thought, will tend to
infuetce public opinion in regard 10 he per-
sons to he supported for these Offices, and the
