THE GLOBE.
The Official paper of Congress.

PUBLlSH my annual Prospectus of The
Daily Globe, and The Congressional lobe
Aud Appendix, to remind subscribers, and
INFORM those who may desire 10 subscri be,
that Congress will meet oil tie first day OF
next December, when shall recommence
publishing the above named papers. They
have been published so long, that most pub
lIc men koS their character, and therefore
deem II needless 10 give minute account
oil the Kind OF matter they will contain.
The Daily Globe will contain report oil
The Debates in both branches oil Congress
as taken by reporters equal, at least, 10 any
rcrps OF shoit hand writer's in this country.
A majority of them will, each, lie able 10
report verbatim, ten thousand words 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 columns they will ap-
pear in The daily Globe of the next morn
ing, which will contain, also, The news of
the day, together with sCch editorial arlc.
les as may be suggested by passing events.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix
will contain report of all the Debates in
Congress, revised by The speakers, the Mes.
sages Of the President of the United States,
the annual reports of the Heads OF The Exc
cutive Departments, the Laws passed du.
ring the session, and copions indexes to all.
They will be printed on double royal sheet
in book form, royal quarto size, each mum.
Der continuing sixteen pages. The whole
will make, ii is believed, between $500
and 1900 pages, tue long sessions for many
years past having ranged between those
numbers, ard the next session will be a
long one. This believe is The cheapest
work ever sold in any country, whether a
reprint, or printed from manuscsipt copy,
taking for Data the average number of words
OF the long Sessions since the year lS48.-
The average number Of pages 1875 and
the average number OF words on page is
1887, consequently The average number OF
a long session is $3.50, .72. AS | have
sold to subscribers that number OF words for
six dollars, il follows that they have paid
less than six and one half cents for every
100, 900 words have furnished them while
have paid my reporters SC 80 for every
1857 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 and Vice President oil the United
States will be nominated before il closes,
and therefore, the debates will be mostly
on such political questions as, il may be
thought, will tend 10 influence public opin.
ion in regard TO the persons to be support.
ed for these offices, and the Globe will be,
as it has been for many years past The ouly
source from which the full debates OF Con.
gress can be obtained.
