THE GLOBE.
THE OFFlCIALPAPER OF CONGRESS-.

L PUBLISH now my annual Prospectus Oh
DAILY GLOBE, and The CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE
AND APPENDIX, to remind subscribers, and inform
those who may desire to subscribe, that Congress
will meet on the first Monday of next December,
when shall recommenco Publishing the above
named papers. They have been published SO
long, that most public men knew their character,
and therefore deem il needless to give minute
account Of the kind Of matter they will contain.
THE DAILY GLOBE will contain report Of tho
Debates in both branches of Congress as taken
down by reporters equal, a. least, to any corps Of
short hand writers in this, or in any other country
A ma crty Of them will, each, be able to report,
verbdtiDs, ten thousand words hour, while the
average number of words spoken by fluent speak
ers rarely sxceeds seven thousand five hundred
words an hour. When the debates Of . day do
not make more than forty-fve columns they will
appear in the Daily Globe Of the next morning,
which will contain, also, the news Of the day, to-
gether with such editorial articles as may DO sug-
gcsted by passing events.
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBR AND APPENDIx will
csnsain report of all tho Debates in Congress,
revised by the speakers the Messages Of the Presi
don't 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 . double
royal sheet, in book form, royal quarto sixe each
number containing sixteen pages. The whole will
make, it is believed, between $500 and 5000
pages the long sessions for many years past hsv
ing ranged between those numbers, and the next
session will be . long one. This believe il the
cheapest work ever sold in any country, whether .
reprint, or printed from manuscript copy, taking
for data tho average number Of words OF the long
sessions since the year lS48. Tho average num-
Der Of pages is 3,e16, and tho average numoer Of
words on page 10 1897, consequently the average
number Of words Of long session is 1890, u.s.
As have sold TO subscribers that number Of words
thar siE and one holt ceass for every leo 600 Uords
hace furnished them, while have paid my repor
ters IS Is for every 1887 words, Of this work, IN
manuscript.
The olning session will, without doubt, be an
unusually interesting one, beessse the candidate,
President Of the United States will be mentioned
before it closes and therefore, the debates will be
mostly Of such political questions -, it may Be
thought, will tend to influence public opinion IN
regard TO the persons to be supported for these
Offices and tho Globe will be, - it has been for
many years past, the only source from which the
full debates Of Congress can be obtained.
