New Series or the Congre ssionaI Globe
/ y AssE l4a and Appendix III III z
CONGRESS, at its last session, through the Joint
/ " Library Committee Of the two Houses, hav-
| ing authorized large subscription for the Con-
gressional Globe and Appendix, and the Senate, by
resolution, having directed the mode Of preparing
the reports Of its proceedings, and auihorzed the
Secretary Of the Senate to contract with the under
signed, stipulating that the reports when written
out shall be subject TO the revision Of he Speakers,
The Congressional Globe and Appendix is now Of
fered to the public, not only an authentic but as
an official report Of the proceedings Of Congress,
made under the eye, and publishedb by authority Of
the body. 2 s4~ati. asH


The undersigned originated the mode Of Journal
Eing the proceedings Of Congress, which, thus
adopted, TO be perfected with the aid and under
the supervision OF Congress. Their publication
was the first and only one that gave each successive
step in every measure in both branches Of Congress


brief Of all the debates; every important vote and
appendix. including at full length all the revised
speeches delivered during the session. sdl


The work, as it is now TO be conducted by them,
will be found q most perfect political history. The
senators from the States, and the representatives
from every section Of the Union bring with them
into Congress a knowledge Of the feelings, senti-
ments, and interests of their several constituencies
Public opinion and the public information, as it
lists among those they represent, are imbodied by
them ; and in the crucible sf Congress the wisdom
of times is brought its test and is there con-
centrated, in directing the political movements Of
the whole country. The impulses thus given through
Congress from every quarter, react upon the nation
whole, and all its component parts are made to
move in cooperation. The press cannot be more
usefully employed than in condensing and again
spreading abroad the intelligence of our free coun-
-
most tremendously adjusted State and national nsti
tutions. ir yfaf


Having identified ourselves with the plan Of ad-
vancing the usefulness of Congress- by publishing
full and impartial reports, and having large mass
of the Congressional Globe and Appendix, issued
during the last twelve years. which would be impair
ed in value US, and utility to the public, if the
work were discontinued, we have q double motive
10 promptus to extend it through new series. We.
are resolved, if possibe to give it permanence and
to hand itsd0wn to successors standard work,
worthy of being maintained and improved. We
shall enter upon our undertaking without being
distracted burdened by any labors Of the
press ); and, thus unencumbered, shall hope to make
the series step in advance Of the former in all
points Of execution. With view to accomplish
this, we snail be Gone or the other) in attendance
on Congress. ii a n " ts1.a 3F1 ny III


The reports will not be affected by our party bias
We believe every member Of Congress will bear
witness that our reports are full and fair.


The Congressional Globe is made up OF the daily
proceedings of the two houses of Congress, and
printed on supeffne double-royal paper with small
type, (breyier and nonpareil) in quarto form, each
number containing sixteen royal quarto pages The
speechesof the members in this first form, are con-
densed-the full report Of the prepared speeches be-
ing reserved for the Appendix. All resolutions,
motions, and other proceedings, are given in the
form of the journal, with the yeas and nays on
every important question. s',N -i'a7A"


The Appendix is made up Of the Presidents an
nua message, the reports Of the principal officers of
the government that accompany it, and all speeches
Of members of Congress- written out revised by
themselves. It is printed in the same form as the
Congressional Globe, and usually makes about the
same number ofpages during session. g tf


During the first month or six weeks of a session,
there is rarely more business done than will make
two numbers week-one Of the Congressional
Globe and one Of the Appendix; but during the re-
mainder Of session, there is usually sufficient mat
ter for two or three numbers of each every week,
The next session will be unusually interesting :;


therefore, we calculate that the Congressional Globe
and Appendix together will make near 500 large
quarto pages, printed in small type We furnish
complete indexes to both at the end Of session.


We have on hand the Congressional Globe and
Appendix for the last fifteen sessions Of Congress,
making together fifteen large royal quarto volumes,
which we will sell, unbound, tor Sal or bound,
with Russia backs and corners, for $50. Those
who want the back volumes should apply for them
Immediately, as they in demand. Congress
subscribed for "a complete sets during the two last
sessions The proceedings Of Congress for the last
nine years cannot be procured from any other
source-Gales g. Seaton having stopped printing
their Register Of Debates in 1887.


We will endeavor to print sufficient number Of
surplus copies to supply all that may be miscarried
or lost in the mails but subscribers should be very
particular to file their papers carefully for fear that
we should not be able to supply all the lost num-
