The Chicago Democrat pays Iowa a
handsome compliment, by saying that
the Club Wheat raised here is superior
to any received from other quarters
that milers prefer it-that it makes more
flour to the bushel, &c. This is well
known fact at home, and when foreign
papers concede it, the realization must
be felt abroad.

The Richmond, Va, correspondent OF

The New York Tribune says
"On Sunday last, the Rev. DR.. Pryor,
father of the Hon. h. A. Pryor, attempt
ed to preach a Disunion sermon in The
High Street Presbyterian church, where
he is the officiating pastor. After dis
coursing at some length, extolling South
Carolina, and commencing her action. he
was interrupted BY one OF the prominent
members, who rose in his seat and de-
clared such sentiments 10 be treason. The
fe,erend gentleman not desisting, sever
al members left the church, and one more
daring than the rest, entered the pulpit
and requested Mr.. Pryor to discontinue
his sermon and leave the building, which
the pastor did amid much excitement"

THE GLOBE,
The OMcial Paper OF Congress

publish now my annual prospectus of The
DAILY CLIQUE, and THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE
AND APPENDIX, to remind subscribers, and to
inform those who may desire to subscribe that
Congress will meet on the first Monday of next
December, when shall resume publishing the
above named papers. They have been pub
lished so long that most public men know their
character, and therefore | deem it 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, as taken
down by reporters, equal, at least to any corps
of short hand writers in this or any other coun-
try. A majority of them will each be able to
report Uerbdtim, 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 de-
bates of the day do not make more than forty
five columns, 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 as may be suggested by pas
sing events.
THE CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE AND APPENDIX
will contain report of all the debates in Con-
gress, revised by the speakers, the messages of
the Presidents of the United States, the Annu-
al Reports of the heads of the Executive De-
partments, the laws passed during the session,
and copious indexes to all. They will be print
ed on double royal sheet, in book form, royal
quarto size, each number containing sixteen
pages. The whole will make, it is believed
at least 1000 pages. This is acknowledged to
be the cheapest work ever sold in any country,
whether reprint or printed from manuscript
copy, taking for data the average number of
words it contains.
The coming session will, without doubt, be
an unusually Interesting one, because the de-
bates will, in great measure, be upon the pol
icy OF the President elect, and The Globe will
be, as 1T has been for many years past, the only
source from which full debates of Congress can
be obtained.
The Congressional Globe and Appendix pass
free through the mails of the United States, as
will be seen by reading the following joint res
olution passed by Congress, the 9th of August,
1852:
Joint Resolution providing for the distribution
Of the Laws of Congress and the debates
thereon
With "a view to the cheap circulation of the
laws Of Congress and the debates contributing
to the true Interpretation thereof, and to make
free the communication between the represent
alive and constituent bodies
Be it resolved by the Senate and House of
Representatives of the United States of Ameri-
ca, in Congress assembled, That from and after
the present session of Congress, the Congress
sional Globe and Appendix, which contain the
laws and the debates thereon, shall pass free
through the mails so long as the same shall be
published by order of Congress, Provided
That nothing herein shall be construed to au
thorize the circulation Of the Daily Globe free
Of postage.
