TH-E GLOBE,
The Official Paper Of Congress

publish now my annual prospectus of THE
DAILY GLOBE, 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 L 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 uerbGtim, 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 speak ers, 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 a double royal sheet, in book form, royal
quarto size, each number containing sixteen
pages. The whole will make, it is believed
at least 2,000 pages. This is acknowledged to
be the cheapest work ever sold in any country,
whether a 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-
hat will h. Al.
icy of the President elect, and The Globe will
be, as it 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

With a view to the cheap circulation of the
laws Of Congress and the debates contributing

ca, in Congress assembled, That from and after
the present session of Con gress, the Congress

through the mails SO long as the same shall be
