presented them entire. 1heT puDhcdloH was uio
first and only that gave each successive step IN
every measure in both branches of Congress
brief of all the debates every important vote and
an Appendix including at full length all the reyls-
ed speeches delivered during the session. 1he
work thus conducted by them is a most perfect po-
itical history. The Senators from the States and
the Representatives from every section OF the Union
bring with them into Congress knowledge OF the
feelings, sentiments, and interests OF their several
constituencies. Public opinion, and the publlc IN
formation, as il exists among those they represent,
are embodied by them and in the crucbe Of Con-
gress the wisdom of our times is brought to ITS test
and is there concentrated, in directing the political
movements of the whole country The impulses
thus given through Congress from every quarter re-
act upon the nation as whole, and all Its compo-
nent parts made to move in cooperation. The
press cannot be more usefully employed than III
condensng and again spreading abroad the inteili-
gence of our free country, tending to such happy
results through almost miracuousy adjusted
State and National Institutions.


Having identified ourselves with the plan of adj
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 ten years, which would be impaired
in value to us and utility to the public if the work
were discontinued, we have double motive TO
prompt us to extend it through new series we
are resolved if possible, to give it permanence,
and to hand it down to successors as standard
work worthy of being maintained and improved
We shall enter upon our new undertaking without
being distracted or burdened any associate labors
of the press and thus unincumbered, shall hope
to make the new series step in advance of the
former in all points of execution. With view to
accomplish this we shall be Zone or the other) al
ways in attendance in Congress; will compare the
manuscripts of our own reporters with the daily
reports OF the city papers; correct all by our own
observation and knowledge of the proceedings and


in all important Matters where that will not assure
of the fidelity of the reports, we will procure the
aid Of the members themselves to obtain the exact
scope Of their remarks. The work, thus authenti-
Gated, will be stereotyped, which is guaranty that
will make it perfect as it is possible Tor us to
make it, as would not incur the expense OF Ste
reotypng it if we did not feel confident OF its supe
riorty over all works Of the kind which have been
or are likely to be published. Stereotyping the
work will enable us to supply lost or mutilated
numbers, which we will do without making any
charge for them.


The Congressional Globe is made up of the daily
proceedings of the two Houses of Congress. The
speeches Of the members condensed, TO bring
them into a readable length All the resolutions
offered or motions made, are given in the movers
own words; and the yeas and nays on all the inn
portant questions. 1t is printed with small type
BREWER and nonpareil--on double royal sheet, in
quarto form, each number containing sixteen royal
quarto pages


The Appendix is made up of the Presidents an
nual message, the reports of the principal officers
of the Government that accompany it, and all the
long speeches of members Of Congress, written out
or revised by themselves. 1t is printed in the same
form as the Congressional Globe and usually makes
about the same number of pages.


We print the numbers as fast as the proceedings
of Congress furnish enough matter for number.
During the first month or six weeks of session
there is rarely more business done than will make
one number Of the Congressional Globe and one
number of the Appendix week; but during the
remainder of session there is usually sufficient
matter fort two or three numbers ofeacb every week
The next session will be long one, and il is sup
posed will be unusually interesting; therefore we
calculate that the Congressional Globe and APP
pendix will each make near one thousand large
quarto pages, printed in small type-brevier and
nonpareil. We furnish complete indexes TO- both
at the end of ahession.


We have on hand the Congressional Globe and
Appendix for the last twelve sessions of Congress,
of which five were long and seven were short ses-
sions. The Congressional Globe and Appendix
for each session are bound together in excellent
binding, with Russia backs and corners. Our pr-
ces for them, thus bound together, are S3 volume
fotF short, and S5 volume for long session, maxi
ing SAG for full set Those who want the back
volumes should apply orthem Immediately, as they
/
two hundred and twenty-sx sets; and it is probable
that the next will subscribe for at least as many
more, as the proceedings Of Congress for the last
eight years cannot be procured from any other
source, Gales & Seaton having stopped printing
their Register of Debates in 1897. few hundred
copies of the first volume is all we have on hand.
| The next session of Congress will be long one,
and therefore the Congressional Globe and Appen-
dix should be 50 for the session, which is the price
we charge for the unbound numbers of the past
long sessions but we have concluded to reduce the
price as follows until the first day of next January
pendix will each be 50 for the session, and no de-
copies taken
