~ lie of renewed preparations on our part to
publish the Congressional Globe and A Appendix
for the approaching session, and to invite sub
criptIons. The two Houses having contracted
with us for the work. on such terms enable US
now to make complete reports, to multiply and is
sue the numbers IN quicker succession than here
tofore and without increasing the price 10 subscri-
bers, we hope to make good return for tho liber
allty and high official sanction thus bestowed on
the publication. We shall increase the volume
at least one-thrd beyond the ordna ry- bulk, and
cndeavor 10 add to- its usefulness by sesieuding
still further its large circulation. ~


This last is not the least important bbint in The
view of Congress. Faithful and durab bte reports
Of The debates of the body are of va tIe in pro-
portion to the extent of their circulation among
the people. IL is i'll this way that Congress- is
brought into the presence of it's remo e-constitu-
ents-that it obtains easy access and holds com
munica,on with them from day 10 day, and reuo
ders the government really representative.


Having received from all parties in 'Congress
the strongest marks of appreciation and conf
dcnce, in the liberal means aud perm,anent con-
tract voted to continue the work, we shall not be
found wanting in lmpartlaty and Industry nee
essary to the due futilment of the engagement on
our part. The next session will task to the ut
most the best efforts of those connected1 with the
undertaking. 1t will be distinguished by discus

tion. The terms of peace, the disposition to be
made of conquestS, the consequences TO be drawn
from al thatshas been done. as affecting parties
in this country, and especially as tearing on The
approaching presidential election, will open up
novel and powerfully operating discussions, rem
dering the councils at Washington during the next
year pregnant of good or evil 10 this continent
ne Of IN IL H.,
days of her early energy. Such field for deb-
Grafton and action never presented to any
previous Congress. All that has transpired, or
may hereafter transpire before the close-of the
approachinu session of Congress, in New Mexico,
California, in the capiIu. of Mexico, and the pro-
vinces still dependant on it, will come under tho
consideration Of the next Congress. Its debates
will contain the history of the war, and lis action
determine its results, whether they be decided by
arms or diplomacy. And whatever is deve Ioped
concerning this vast and interesting matter on the
floor Of Congress or in the Executive messages
will be found recorded in the Congressional Globe
and Appendix.


The Congressional Globe is made up of the
daily proceedings of the two Houses of Congress,
and printed on superfine double royal paper, with
small type (brevier and nonpare,) in quarto form.
each number containing sixteen royal quarto pa
ges. The speeches of the members, in this first
form, are condensed-the full report of the pre-
pared speeches being reserved for the Apendix.-
All resolutions, notions and other proceedings,
are given in the form of the Journals. with the
yeas and nays on every important question.
Every member will have opportunity to read
his remarks before they are put to press and af.
ter report if he shall think it incorrect.


The Appendix is made up of the Presidents
annual messages, the reports of the principle Of
fcers of the government that accompany it, and
all speeches of members of Congress, written out
or revised by themselves. 1t is printed in the
same form as the Congressional Globe, and usual
ly makes about the same number or pages dur
| ing q session.


During the first month or six weeks of session
there is rarely more business done than will make
two numbers week-one of the Congressional
| Globe aud one of the APPENDIX; but during the re
mainder of session. there is usually suficien
matter for two three numbers Of each every
week. The next session ill be usually interest
ing; therefore,, we calculate that the Congress
onal Globe and APPENDIX together will make nea
1000 lage quarto pages, printed in small type
BREWER and nonparei. We furnish complete
Indexes to both at the end of a session.


We will endeavor TO print sufficient numbe
| of surplus copies to supply all that may be mis-
carried, lost in the mails, but the subscriber
| should be very particular 10 file their papers ca re
| fully, for fear that should not be able to sup
ply all the lost numbers. - /,
We Hu'O II lew copies VI tue COuSTcSstOtu

will sell FLOR the original subscription PRICES

pendix for that session.
