OFFICIAL PAPER CT CONGRESS.
publish now my Annual Prospectus Of The
Daily Globe, and tho Congressional Globe and
Appendix, to remind subscribers, and inform those
who may desire to subscribe, that Congress Will
meet on the first Monday in Decembor when /
shall recommenoe publishing tho above named pa.
pers. They have been published 80 long that most
public men know their character, and therefore
deem II needless to give minute account Of the
kind Of matter they will contain.
The Daily Globe will contain report of the
debates in both branches OF Congress az taken
down by reporters equal, at least, u any corps
short hand writer's 10 this or any other country -
A majority of them will, each, be able to report
verbatim ten thousand words per hour, while the
average number Of words spoken by fluent speak
ers rarely exceeds seven thousand ave hundred
words an honr. When the debates Of day do
not make more than fOrty-iive columns, they will
appear in tho Daily Globe of the next morning,
which will contain, also, the news Of the day, to-
gether with such editorial articles ne may he sug
gested by passing everts.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix will
contain report Of all the Debates In Congress,
revised by the speakers, the Messages Of the
President Of the United States, the Annual Re-
ports Of the Heads Of the Executive Departments
The Laws passed during the session. and copious
indexes 10 ALL They will be printed a double
royal sheet in book form, royal QunrtO size, each
number containing sixteen pages. The whole will
make, il is believed, between 3 500 and 3, 900
pages, tho long sessions for many years past hav
ing ranged between those two numbers, and the
next session will be long one. This believe is
the cheapest work sold in any country, wheth-
or reprint printed from IN anusoript copy ,-ta
king for data tbe average number OF words Of the
long sessions since the year 1913. The average
number Of pages is 3,S76, and the average number
Of words on page is 1897, consequently the av
erage number OF words Of long session is $50,
7T2. As have sold TO subscribers .Snt number
Of words for six dollars, 1t follows that they have
paid less than six and half cents for every l0O,
600 words have furnished them, while hav,
paid my reporters Sc 30 for every 2,39I words Of
this work in manuscript.
The coming sCssio vii without doubt, be an
unusually interesting one, because the candidaet
Of the respective parties for President and Vice
President of the United States will be naminhted
before it Closes and, therefore, the debates will he
mostly on such political questions as, it may be
thought, will tend to influence public opinion in
reghrd TO the persons TO be supported for these Oh
fees, and tho Globe will DO. as it has
been for several years past tho only source from
which the full debates Of Congress can be Oh.
