The Rlyes family and their predecessors, Blair

ever since 1883, although they have been the
sole oficial publishers only since isss. When

defunct National Inteltigsnoer, who had printed
the debates OF Congress ever since the year 1900,
when the sessions o. that body were removed TO
Washington city. The old ANNALS OF Congress"
two volumes, was made up by Gales a Beaton
from the columns OF the National IntettC-
0enoer and the Philadelphia United states
printed and supplied TO Congress TO be
scattered over the country. This ANNALS OF
Congress" was succeeded by the "ltegister OF

Gales a Seaton's congressional Debates" The
