 VKTE issue this Prospectus to appirse the public w of renewed preparations on our part to pub fish the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the approaching session. and to invite suosrriP tions The Houses having contracted with us ioE the work, oa such terms as enable us now to make complete reports to multiply and issue the numbers in quicker saeeession than heretofore. and without increasing the price to subscribers. we hope to make a good return for the liberaity and high official sanetiou thus bestowed on the publication. We shall increase the volume at least one-third beyond the ordinary bulk and endeavor to add to its nse- fitness by extending still further its large cfcula ton.

 This last is not the least important point in the view of Congress. Faithful and durable reports oi the debates of the body of value in propoFlon to the extent of their circulation among the people. IL is in this way that Congress is brought into the presence of Its remote constiuentstbat 1t obtains easy access and hold communication with them from day to day, and renders the government real ly representative.

 Having received from all parties in Congress the strongest marks of appreciation and confidence, m the liberal means aad permanent contract voted to continue the work, we shall not be found wanting in the mpartiality and industry necessary to the due fuhlment of the engagement on our part. The next session will task to the utmost the best efforts of those connected with the undertaking IL will be distinguished by discussions Of extraordinary terests and results of abiding concern. The war, Its olign and conduct by officers in the cabinet and in the field. will furnish subjects of profound inc quiry and consideration. Theaerms of peace, the disposition to be made of eoRquests the consequent ees to be drawn from all that has been done as af iecting parties in this country, and especially as bearing on the approaching presidential election. will open up novel and powerful operating discus sions, rendering the councils at Washington during he next year as pregnant of good or evil to this con tnent as those of Rome were 10 the Old World in the days of her early energy Such fieid for de- liberation and action was never presented to any pteyiaus Congress. All that has tanspired. or may hereafter transpire before the close of the approach jag session of ongress, in New Mexico, California m the capital of Mexico, and the provinces still de- pendent on it, will come under the consideration of the next Congress. Its debates will contain the history of the war; and its action determine its re- suits, whether they be decided by arms or diploma ey And whatever is developed concerning this vast and interesting matter the floor of Congress or tn the Executive messages, will be found recor det in the Congressional Globe and Appen- diI.

 The Congressional Globe is made up of the taiy proceedings of the two Houses of Congress. and printed on slperfine double royal paper, with small type. (brevier and nonpareil,) in quarto form eacl number containing sixteen royal quarto pages. The speeches of the members in this first form. are eontensed-he full report of the prepared speeches oe'agreseued for the Appendix. All resolutions, notions, and other proceedings, are in the form of the Journals, with the yeas and nays on every im- portant question.

 Every member will have an opportunity to read hs remarks before they are put to press, and alter our report il he shall think it incorrect.

 The Appendix is made up of the Presidents annual message, the reports of the principal officers oi The government that accompany it, and all speeches of members of Congress, written out oI ierised by themsriyesltis is printed in ihe form as 'ne Congressional Globe, and usually makes aoout the sane number of pages during session.

 During the first month or six weeks of session ihere IS rarely more business done than will make TWO numbers week--one the Congressional Globe and one of the Appendix; but during the remainder oi session, there is usually sufficient mater Tor two or three of each every week.
