AL GLOBE AND APPENDIX, tO.remind subscribers.
and inform thOse VINO may desire to subscribe,
that Congress will meet on the first Monday Of
next December. when | shal! recommence pub
fishing the above named papers. They have
been put lished so long that most p1blic men
know their character and therefore | deem il
needless to give II minute account Of the kind Of
matter they will contain
The DAILY GLOBE will contain a report Of the
Debates in both branches Of Congress as taken
down by reporters equal, at least, 10 any corps
Of shoTt-han writers in this, or in any other
country. majority Of them will, each, be able
TO report, rcrbltim, ten thousand wo DIS an hour,
while the average number of words spoken by
fluent speakers rarely exceeds seven thousand
five hundred words an hour When the debates
of day do not make more than forty five col
umns 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
us may be suggested by passing events.
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX will
contain Il report of all the Debates in Congress,
revised by the speakers the Messages Of the Press
ident of the United States the Annual Reports Of
the Heads Of the Executive Departments, the
Laws passed during the session and copious in
dexes To all. They will be printed on double
royal sheet in hook form, royal quarto size each
number containing sixteen pages. The whole
will make it il believed, between $500 and 8, .
90n pages, the long sessions for many years past
having ranged between those numbers, and the
next session will be long one. This believe
is the cheapest work ever soil in any country,
| whether reprint or printed from manuscript
copy, taking for data the average number ofwords
of the long session since the year ls4S. The ay-
eTage number Of pages Is S,S78, and the average
number Of words on page is 1895, consequent
| ly u average number of words ofa ong session
| is o. 92SO,772. AS have sold to subscribers that
number of words for siI dollars, it follows that
they have paid less haR SIR and me kalf cents toy
erry 100 900 WOfds hrre Furnished them, whilo
have paid my reporters 81 80 for every 397 words
of this work, in manuscript
The coming session will, without doubt, be an
unusually interesting one, because the candidates
of the respective parties for President aud Vice
President OF the United States will be nominated
before it closes, and, therefore, the debates will
be mostly on such political questions as, it may
be thought, will tend to influence public opinion
in regard to the persons to he supported for these
offices, and the Globe will be- as it has been fol
many years past, the only source from which the
full debates Of Congress can be obtained.
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX pass
free through the mails of the United States, a,
will be seen by reading the following Joint ResO.
luton passed by Congress the 9th of August
1852:
