GRATT'ITOt'S ADVERTISING. No class ol the dommumiy is more sevcrs lv taxed, not for me public, hut lor individual *£Ood, than newspaper publishers. The New York Commercial sets fortii the case in the lbllDwino aruct—every word ol which is true. Gratuitous Advertising. Everv body knows, or otghl to know, that ihe publishing business is ne ol large expense—-employing a great niniber of persons and an extensive capital, flat every paragraph set up costs a certain Aim ol money in the composition, or setting Jp ol the type, and occupies a certain space, which ought to yield its proportion of incone to the proprietors. Every body must kinw, too, that the main source of this income is me p iriion <>l the sheet devoted to advt-r Inemeuts, and that to ask the gratuitous in sertion nj an advertisement, or a communi cation, or an editorial notice, to serve in the place ol one, is literally asking the publisher to incur an expense of one dollar or more, without making him a farthing in return. it is to ail intents and purposes asking him to take a sum of money from Ins pocket and present it to the applicant. Yet this thing is done every day, and many times a day; arid that too by men who have no earthly claim on the charity of the publisher, and wh - can; much better aff>rd than he can to disburse i the money—without adverting to the fact I that the object ol the advertisemerl or com-! munication, is to promote their interest, and not that of the publish r. There are scores of persons who would never dream of walking jmo a tailor’s shop, and asking lor the gift of a waistcoat, or into a hatter’s and begging to be favored freegra tis, with a hat, vet can see no impropriety in calling upon the publisher for the grat .itons anouncernerit of a course of lectures, or a I patent fly trap, or any other notion, in the! bringing of which before the public they hap pen to have an interest. An Incident in the First Congress.— In one of the letiers of old John Adams to his wife, just published, an imeiesiing incident is reiaied, as in the Inflowing extract Those who will refer to the P.-alrn mentioned may discover ihe peculiar applicability of its lan guage to the then condition of America. “ When ihe Congress first met, Mr. Cush ing made a motion that it should he opened with prayer, li was opposed by Mr. .Jay of New Volk, ain I Mr. Rut edge of -South Car o uia, because we were so divided in religious sentiments, some Episcopalians, some Qua kers, some Anabapiisis, some Presbyterians, and some Congregationalists, that vve could not join in the same act of worship. Mr. Samuel Adams arose and Raid, ‘he tvas no bigot, and could hear a prayer from a gentle man ol piety and virtue; who was at the same tune a Ineud to Ins country, lie was a stranger in Pliiladelph a, but hail heard that i Mr. Durffie,’ (Lluchay they pronounce if)! ‘deserved that character, aid therefote he moved, tint Mr. Duche, an Episcopal cler gyman, might he desired to read prayers to ihe Congress on to-morrow Morning.’ The motion was seconded and passed in the affit mutive. Mr, Randolph, ,inr wait ed on Mr. Duche, and received Ibr answer, that il Ins heiltli would permit, lie certainly would. Accordingly, next morning he ap peared with iiis clerk and his pontificals, am! read several prayeis m ih> established form, and then read the collect for the seventh day of September, which was ihe 3.3. ti Psalm. You must remember, tins was the next morn ing alter we heard 11 it? horrible rumor or the cat npiiade of Boston. I never saw a great er effect upon an audience. It seemed as if II •iiverj had ordained that Psalm to be read on that morning.” Enol.aNi) and China.—There may be some v.’:i i nave not yet learned enough of the se cret to have le t oif wondering what all the fuss between the Englis > and the Chinese is ahuit. II re is the story in a nutshell. I: is troul ihe Richmond Enquirer: “ I he Chinese Government, llnding that I its subjects were brutalizing themselves hv the inordinate chewing of opium, (orbide its /idrudiiciion into its ports at the hazard of coiinscatioii. The British, who had turned the fields’ of linuloostan into its cultivation, hud derived an immense profit from the trade, smuggled thousands of chests into Canton against me laws of China, and the warnings f>’{ her Emperor. These vveie seiz'd by the Chinese, and burnt—and now the British, at the modth of the caution, at e demanding com pensation. Canton is attacked, and thousands <>T the Chinese are sacrificed. This is a blot upon the British name, witch is worse than their seizure of the fleet at Copenhagen. As the New York Sun justly observes; * It is with reason and truth that the Chinese denominate their British enemies barbarians. No people ever earned that title more effectually, <>r had it more justly applied to them. In the eves of all imparl al men, and of rigmeous Hea ven, the slaughter of every Chinese in this imholv war must be regarded as murder —the extortion of every dollar as robbery. Many years cannot elaose b'fo'p the question will lie tested whether Eng'amf is to achieve by means like these her darling object of univer sal dominion. ’ ” DISTBESS IN ENGLAND. The following details are Hem a Lund n paper. They portray scenes o? misery al most beyond the conception of the favored jtih ahiiants of this country. After the read er Ins perused these details, he may turn to a paragraph in another part of this paper •wherein it is stated that in the same country of England, £70,000, about //in.: hundred and Iwnty thousand dollars have been ex pended lor the royal stables!!! There are about 14,000 looms in Bet ha I green, Spilaifields, Shoreditch, See.; about 3000 are quite out of work, and the 11,000 at work are only three fourths of their tune employed, which causes great distress eik! privation among those who are considered the respectable portion of the district. The average earnings, when at work, are about 7s. 6J. each loom; from tins is to be deducted 4v 64. per month, or l-\ 1 1-24. per week, for expenses of turning in and twisting in, which leaves the miserable starving in come of 6u 4 1-44. per week. There are about 800 souls in the Bcthal green poor house, and about 1600 receiving outdoor relief. Meat, tea, sn -r, milk, butter, beer, &c., are luxuries very seldom tasted by those who have work. There are hundreds without a bed to he on, having parted with it lor 100 1. Cases are occurring every day, that weavers are part ing with their loom, and tools to oblatn h>od for their starving families—-11.0-e being the only things left, of arv value, that they can dispose “i; and when they are gone, they are quite destitute —not a bed to lie on, not a chair to rest on, nor tools to work with. I liis is the heartbreaking situation of many hund reds of the usetul, industrious Spitaifield v\ca vers. Pawn brokers and furniture brokers arc s<> stocked with g >ods that they have great 04- ficultv to find room to put tiietu in their ware houses.

Y, Observer. Prom the Philadelphia Inquirer. BLACKWOOD AND THE PEEc MINISTRY. The last number oi “Blackwood” contains an article on the “ Prospects of the Peel .Min istry.” It is rather tame, however, lor that ; journal, as the writer, like SSir Robert Peel at the opening o! Parliament, was no doubt puz zled to know what to promise with regard to j measures, calculated to reconcile me puohc | mind, and restore the general prosperity. | he pred.cts that the Tory or Conserva tive retgu will lea glorious one, and assigns the Lest reasons that he could call to his as sistance. He argues that the new Ministry will be strong because of the weakness of their opponents, and says that the present pros ratio. - ! of the Whigs bears a direct pro portion to the length of time lor which they i so shamelessly clung to office. The Whigs, I it is true, did cling to office with remarkable! pertinacity; but they had the Queen with j them, and they fancied that they had a vast 1 majority ol the people. Hence their conduct, lie thinks, moreover, that the new ministry will be strong in their own extensive influence and established character, and says that the names ol \\ eilington and Peel, of Graham md Starkey, of Rinon, of Canning and of : Liverpool, are even in their very sounds, iu j dications of a powerful coalition of the most j persuasive influences; also, that the new min [ istrv will be strong in the very variety of in terests and of original opinions which it ern braces—in having secured the natural sympa thy and concurrence of both branches of the Legislature—in the uprightness and simplicity ot the course which its members pursued while in opposition, and finally in the present state of public feeling. “ The country (says the writer) is sick of agitation and change’— it is still more sick of profession and nonper formance. Its feelings have been kept on the stretch for an unusually long period ; and those who have attained their object, as well as those wh > have faded in doing so, are si Tang ly disposed to return to a s'ate ot rest and routine.” This is all very well for a victori ous party —for a party that, having obtained power, desires to keep it, and to avoid the* discussion of all topics likely to peril trie pos session of the rents and tiie patronage of gov ernment. But Sir Robert Peel and his friends need not lay any such flattering unction to their souls. The great masses ot the people will not remain passive and quiet. Already have they reared the standard of agitation—-alrea dy have immense meetings been held in the manufacturing dl3 i riels—and already has a new impulse been given to the repeal clause m Ireland. Something must he done, and that speedily, or the outdoor tumult and cries for relief, will lead to alarm and consternation within the House of Commons, calculated even to reduce the boasted Conservative ma jority of ninety to a very inconsiderable num ber. But we annex one of the concluding ! passages of the article in Blackwood, merely ; remarking, that throughout the essay, the! greatest possible care is taken to avoid any! thing like an expose of the measures likely to he brought forward by the new Premier and his comederates : “ We are firmly persuaded that the sources of strength and stability which the Peel Min istrv enjoy, are not likely to be thrown away or lorleited by their conduct in office. The first principle by which they will be regulated is th • preservation of our great institutions in Church and State. The second will be the due and firm enforcement of the law, without distinction of parties or persons. But, com biued with those principles, we may expect a scrupulous regard for ihe rights of civil and religious freedom—a mild and equitable mod eration in the adjustment of all matters of! administrative regulation, or not involving a ! fixed constitutional truth—an anxious desire to amend practical abuses, and to remove just grounds of cavil and complaints against the! law sor government of the country—a digni-! tied but conciliatory vindication of the national j honor abroad—a careful and comprehensive! revision of our financial system at home—a vigorous assertion of the authority of Govern- j merit over the individual or sectional objects ol its supporters—and a resolute determination I to preserve its authority bv the surest of all J means, a readiness to surrender office when ! it can no longer be held without a sacrifice of honor and integrity. Under a government of | tins kind vve may look for many signal hies- j sings to our beloved country, of w hich. during i the last ten years of trouble and turmoil, we ! have been deprived. A feeling of security j will be produced; which in itself is of the ut- j most value, and without which the re can nei- | ther be enterprise nor credit. Men will know j with some certainty, the worth both of their! own property, anti that of their neighbors ; and will thus have a standard for fixing both what they may expend on themselves, and what they may invest in the hands of others. I he distractions arising from political hopes | and ieurs being removed, will make way for ; better feelings and pursuits, for practical qnes- • ! tions of public improvement, and for ihe free j cultivation of science, of art and of literature, j Leisure and encouragement will also be at ! lorded for extending to our vast and inex iiaustible possessions abroad, a larger share of that improvement and assistance which colonies deserve from their mother country, and which, under proper management, they are sure so amply to repay. England will thus go forward more fearlessly and faithfully than ever, in her great mission as the chief dispenser of civilization and Christianity over the world.” IMPROVED STOCK IN GEORGIA.

Tne Louisville Advertiser notices anew invention, by a Mr. L-inning, of that city. It is an engine which is put into operation by atmospheric, air, dis-, pensing with buffers, water and steam. It is thus dr scribed: In its construction it is exceedingly simple. Two tubes, or chimneys, capable of hearing a pressure of fifteen pounds to the inch, and placed perpendicularly over a stove, or fur i mice, from which a flue leads to each. The flues have valves at each end. A fire is light ed in tbe furnace, the h aze of which ascends into one of the chimneys, the other being clo sed by the valves. This rarifles the air, which rushes through a [ripe into a common cylinder, and moves the piston. The scuon of the en i gine shuts the fust flue, in which a vacuum is created, while the heal and propelling force are changed to ‘he other, producing the re ’ verse motion. ■Tints heated, air u applied to the common engine m the same manner as steam. V < .th a sugiit fie, we sa w the engine put in motion, and though but a rough model, and upon a sma.l scale, it afforded sufficient power to drive a common fanning mil], or wheat cleaner, with considerable rapidity, ft will require less fuel than is necessary in working a steam engine, no vea'er or boilers. ‘A e understand that the inventor has received lioeral proposals already from men of capital, who have confidence in its complete success. THE POWER OF ADVERTISING. A writer hi Biacswood seems to have a very favorable opinion of the power of adver lisitig. He says lhat nothing is so web es- I taWished as ihe fact, that advertising will do : any thuig. No imposition is so glaring, no j quackery so apparent, no humbug so gross ! ,u, 4 palpable, winch may ,t it be turned by •oi enterprising fellow to account, through tiie medium of the newspapers. Not only do me ti ades, but the professions, use this mighiv letter ol introduction : your laivver pulls his book, and the physician his treatise, as you imagine, but she tact and truth is, the learned gentlemen are advertising themselves : the vne ot the book is not the object, but tiie sale of the man. lie then proceeds to illustrate tbe rnaiter by stating a case—that of a late “London Assurance Company.” “ I'liis infamous con cern was got up by a servant out ol place,; aided by one or two other desperate men j ‘mpon town.” By some means or other, for- i ging references in all probability, the adven turers gained possession nfa good house in a highly respectable neighborhood; the ha it of fered that many-beaded gull the public, was some considerable abatement of the usual premium “I situ hr establishments, which it was easy for those to oiler who never intended to [)ay. jhe light artillery of the newspaper did ihe rest. Indifferent as the public may he to a few announcements in the public prints, the reiteration ot advertisements isever ‘tire to succeed ; and succeed it did in this particular instance so well, that the miscre ants, alter plundering unfortunate creatures to the tune of some eighty or a hundred thou sand pounds, decamped beyond the reach of the law, and are now laughing at the simpli city of ilieir victims.” ‘ it is, ’ he adds, “upon the newspapers that the various tr.bes ot quacks in medicine de pend lor their subsistence; what they offer lor sac, though it he the genuine elixir of the ! aldi.vmkts, or dirt pills, does not matter a j jackstraw; the point is, how much can they j afford to spend in advertising. Advertising ; is like law—ihe longest purse wins ail.” I iorn ihe Savannah Georgian. THE PiijtSSiDENGY'. General \\ infield Scott has published in i a New York paper, a circular letter, which i ‘ vas drawn iro:u him by “many loiters, from as I many different States, propounding nearly the sam? political iiiterogatones, to winch answers were requested.” 1 he General lakes a view of parly politics, i in which he says, when a youth, he rejoiced in j the expiration ol the alien and sedition laws i which followed the triumph of Mr. Jefferson ; i slates that he generally approved of the ad-! ministrat.ons o; Jefferson, Madison and Mon- ] roe, and remarks that il he has never been a i federalist in any parly sense ol the term, so i neither lias he been a Jacobin, an impraclica- j hie or abstractionist in any sense whatever, j but always an old fashioned republican; a democratic whig, as all his family had been vvhiga before him. lie expresses his rover | once lor the decisions ol the Judiciary, State j and Federal, but hopes to see a reduction of ihe President’s veto power ;—expresses opin- i ions adverse to removing office holders, unless deficient in honesty, capacity or industry— declares himself liiiavorof one term lor ihe President, to be extended to six years, and concludes as follows; Agency <f the President in Legislation.-- 1. i am persuaded that this should be strictly [ limited, 2.

Court in tiie case of the United States is. the , L luted States Bank, tor plaintiffs,being a claim jot about $353,000. i bis action arose out of I | the first biff drawn by the U. States Govern- i ment upon France for tiie indemnity for spo- i nations. This bill was purchased by the Uni ted bnates Bank, and when presented at: Paris, there had bee i no funds provided by ! the Chainc-er of Deputies and unfortunately i the bill was at sight,-- 1 tier wise the government ’ might have provided means; but it was nrotes ; ted for non-payment and returned. The Bank ; then charged me government with tfje cus tomary damages, and retained in settlement wdih the government the amount of those dam ! ages, and then this suit was commenced, and . i lias been continued from term to term Some speculation lias been indulged as it I i regards the effect of this verdict on some of| 1 the assignments, as the government lias al- ] i ways the first claim ; but the defendants may appeal to the Supreme Court, and thus post i pone such action. Judge Baldwin (says the Ledger) decided | the following points arising from the testimony m the case, which will be sufficient to show the general features. 1. That the United States were liable to the law of set-off like any individual; their ’ sovereignty being parted with pro hac vice. 2. That tiie claim of the defendant to dam | ages must be governed by the laws of Mary ; land, the place where rite Bill cf Exchange 3. That by this law damages were only al lowable to the actual holder of the Bill of Ex change at the time of the protest, or to an en dorser who has paid the damage sustained upon it. 4. That the Bank was not the holder of the Bill at the time of protest, nor an agent for the holder ; and that no proof had been given to show that it had paid the damages sustained by the protest. The defendant’s claim for damages was therefore rejected by the Court, and the jury gave a verdict for the plaintiff for -§251,243 54 damages, and six cents for cos't. Gold Mine in Union.— Our estimable friend, Dr. Moore, Cashier of the Branch B mi; in this place, politely shewed ns yesterday, some remarkably rich specimens of ore from a Vein Mine lately commenced in Union Dis trict, about twelve miles above the Court House, called Note’s Mine. In three or four small pieces of rock there was estimated to be fifty or seventy dollars worth of gold ; and among them was a piece of solid gold in its natural state, worth twenty five dollars.— South, Carolinian, 4 th inst. Narrow Escape.—The New York Herald of the sth inst. says, “ Commodores Stewart, Biddle, and Reed, came within an ace of be ing drowned yesterday morning. They had just landed at the Fulton Ferry, when the steamer Nassau run into their boat and smash ed her. There was just two minutes between their landing on the ferry pier, and in eter nity.” GEORGIA COTTON—SQUARE BALES. If our planters could be aware of the in cessant demand which is made for square bales of cotton in preference to the round, it appears to us they would determine at once to put up presses and send square packages to market henceforth. Not only are square bales desirable, but for good stowage on board slop it is desirable to have th in as nearly of the same size as possible. We have examin ed various packages of different sizes, and ta ken the measure of some. The following! are the dimensions of those which please us most — Length—s feet, Depth—2 feet o inches, Width or thickness, 1 foot, 8 inches. A bale of this size, ii’ well pressed and bound with some six bands of first quality bale rope, will weigh from 375 to 4iJ<) lbs., ! and is a handy, handsome, and portable pnek ! age. On such bales, our planters are already ! aware, doubtless that the Rail Road charge’s less freight ihan on round ones. I o New York the freight is 25 cents per bale less, and by a freighting ship to Liverpool it is 1-8 of a penny less than on round bales—all of which might be saved to the planters. In the present dishonest age, the round bales are no protection against pilfering, and while lying on the docks’ in New York, the bag may be ripped open, and some 20 or 25 lbs. be abstracted without being missed until the bale is reweighed. Instances of this kind have lately coin? to our knowledge. The round bales, too. go to market in much worse order, and loose more in weight, so that buy ers generally prefer to give 1-8 to 1 4 of a cent more lor cotton in square bales. All these reasons and some others exist why a buyer prefers square bales. We hops our planters will think of these things. Some of them we have conversed with, who have ex pressed their determination to discontinue packing their cotton in round bales. [ Savannah Republican. Texas Cotton.— The following letter, giv ing an account of cotton plants, the production of western Texas, (says the Austin Gazette) has been kindly furnished us oy his Excel lency Gen. Lamar, for publication. It is from the Hou. A. Hutchinson, Judge of the 4th Ju dicial District. We have seen tiie plants, and can therefore testify to the luxuriant growth of the cotton—vve are of the opinion that it is of the South Sea variety ; it has a long staple, is fine fibred, and is oi a delicate cream coior. Austin, Sept. 28, 1841. liis Excellency M. B. Latnar, President of the Republic of Texas: Sir—l have the pleasure of presenting to your excellency a sample of what may prop erly be called the Silk Colton, taken from the garden of J. W. Smith, Esq. of San Antonia de Bexar. The seed cam? from South A merica and was first planted by him forexperi ment in 1840, and tbe specimen is the growth of the present season. Judge Robinson,who g.ave me the sample, counted on the stalk from which lie took it nine hundred pads, after a few had been plucked. I visited the garden and examined a luxuriant row of the plant from which our fields may be soon supplied. The stalk at its roots is some four and a half inch es in circumference; it is about seven feet high and nearly the same in spread, ’l'he seed is jet black. You will perceive that the fibre is very fine, fair white, and to the eve and touch more like silk than the common product, promising a variety of labric of unu sual strength, firmness and brilliancy; and if under ordinary culture in a soil and climate so genial, it will produce as abundantly as if has done in its first Texian bed in tlio ancient city, it will become an object of general atten tion, interest and profit. 1 have the honor to be, £ce.

The arrival of two English steamships since our last, enables us to make tip a pretty full cotton ac count. The Britannia arrived at Boston with Liver pool dates to 21st ult., and the Great Western at New ’ oik wi h dates two days later. From private letters and circulars of the leading cotton houses in England, we cannot anticipate an advance on our staple for the present. The low state of our river, also, operates somewhat against an advance. Our streets, however, present quite a crowded s ate, and Planters and Merchants appear to be satisfied with the prices paid and received. We quote the market at from 71 to Bc. receipts: On ha id previously .... 3 743 Received up to November 14, . - 1 378 5.121 Total shipme.nts, ... . 2.054 Stock on hand, ----- 3,067 Liverpool, Oct. 22. In the earl)’ part of the week considerable excite ment prevailed in the cotton market, spinners and dealers purchasing freely , and speculators also to a considerable extern. Holders of American being anx ious to learn the news by the Halifax steamer of the 4th, did not offer their stocks, except at extreme pri ces, and consequently obtained an advance of fully •j 1. per lb. upon last week’s prices. Since the arrival of the steamer, without any tidings of importance, the evoitenient has subsided, and much of the advance has been again conceded. It is difficult to raise our quotations, except in the fair qualities, though it is l ot easy to buy at last week’s rates. The sales today are 3000 bales; the market is quiet, but pi etty steady. Speculation this week, 5760 American. *• It will be well to bear in mind, that on the 15th inst. we raised our standard for fair quality of Upland, Or cans and M bile Id. per lb., in order to confer n to the general wish expressed by the American Cham ber of Commerce.” Havre. Oct. £O. Cotton. —Cur cotton market, wine:: assumed r. gloomy aspect on Friday last, owing to the bad ac counts from England, has since experienced a decided j change for the better, and the daily sales averaged , 1500, at stifFdr prices, particularly for the ordinary and | middling descriptions, to which attention is now c-its-i ly directed.

They have had such wide circulation, uiid have bt tii so universally appiovud and sought after bv the pub ic, that vve deem it necessary only in ibis prospectus to sav that they will be continued at .l.e next session of Congress, and ic slate, succinctly, liieir contems, tbe lorm m which they will be printed, and die prices j for them. i The Congressional Globe is made up of ihe daily j proceedings of the two blouses of Congress. ’J he speeches o the meinoers are abridged, or condensed, to bring them into a reasonable, or readabieSength. All the reso utions offered. or mo ions made are <nven at length, in the mover’s own woros ; and the veas and nays on all the important questions. It is printed with small typ —brevier anu lionparei—on a double royal sheet, in quarto lorm, each number containing 116 roya. quarto pages. It is printed as fast as the business done in Cong ess furnishes matter enoiuli for a number—usually one number, but sometimes two numbers, a week. We have invariably printed more oiinuers than there were weeks in a session. ‘1 he approaching se-ston of Oongre s, it is expected, will I continue 7 months ; if to, subscribers may expect he | tween 30 ami 40 numbers, winch, together, will make : between SDO anUGuO royal quarto pages. \ The Appendix is made up of the President’s arnu ] al message, the reports of the principal officers of the Government that accompany it, and all the long speeches ot members if Congress, written out and revised by themselves. It is printed in the same form as the Congressional Globe, and usually makes about the same number of pages. Heretofore, on account ot the set speeches being so numerous and so long, we have pot completed the Appendix until one or two i months alter the close of the session : but, in future, we intend to print the spe-ches as fast as they shall be prepared, anti of course shall complete tile vvoik within a few days afier the adjournment. Each cl these works is complete in i'self; but it is nee ssarv for every subscriber who desires a full knowledge ol the proceedings of Congress, to have both ; bt cause, then, if there should be any ambiguity in the synopsis of ihe speech, or any denial of its cor rectness, as published in the Congressional fcliobe, the reader may turn to the Appendix to see the speech at length, corrected by the member himscH. Now, there is no souice but the Congressional Globe and Appe dix.front which a person can obtain a full history <>l the proceedings of Congress. Gales ami Seaton’s Register of Debates, which contained a history, has been suspended for three or four years, it coat about live limes as much for a sessu n as the Congressional Globe and Appendix, and did not con tain an equal anion t of matter, a great portion of the current proceed ngs being omi'leo, The speeches of both parties are published in ihe Daily Globe, and in tin’ Congressional Globe and Appendix : other papers publish their own siitr. only. We are enabled to print the Congressional Giobe and Appendix at the low rate now proposed, by having a large quantity es type, arid keeping the Congressional matter that we set up for the daily and si mi-weekly Globes, standing for ihe Congressional Globe and Appendix. If we had lo set up the matter purp<>seli for these works, we could not afford to prim them for double the prico no v charged. Compete indexes to both the Congressional Globe and die Apoendix are printed at the close of tach session, and sent to all subsetibers lor them. VV c have on hand 3,009 or 4,000 surplus copies of the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the extra session, winch make together near one thousand roy al quarto pages. They give the fullest history of Congress that has ever been published We now sell them tor $I each ; that is, (>I for the Congression al Giobe, and fil for the Appendix. We propose to lot subscribers lor the Cougressianal Globe and Ap pendix for the next session, have them for 50 cents each. Yhey will be necessary to understand fullv I lie proceedings ot the next session. The important mutter* discussed at the last, will be brought up at the next session, in cons-q'utpce of the universal dissatis faction evinced in the late elections with the vast and novel system of policy which the new powers have introduced, and which was forced through Congress without consulting public opinion, or even allowing the full discussion usual in regard lo subjects ofoidinary interest. The reports of the Congressional Globe and Appendix are not in the least degree affected by the party bias of the Editor. They are given pre cisely as written out by the Reportors and the mem bers themselves. And the whole are subject to the revision and coir ction of the speakers, as they pass in review in our daily sheet, in case any misunder standing or misrepresentation of their remarks should occur. We make a daily analysts of.the doings in Con gress, and give our opinions in it freely, but this is published onlv in the Daily, Semi-weekly, and Week ly Globes. The Daily Globe is $lO, the Semi-week ly Globe $5, and the Weeklv Globe $2 per annum, in advance. The Weekly Globe is printed in ihe same lorm as the Congressional Globe and Appendix, and a complete index made to it at the end of each year. TERMS: For the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the las’ Extra cession, sl. For the Congressional Globe for the next session, $1 per copy. For the Appendix for the next session, $1 per copy. Bix copies of either of the above works will be sent for $5 ; t welve copies for $lO, and so on in proportion fur a grealt i number. Payments may be transmitted by mail, postage paid, at our risk. By a rule of the Post Office De partment, postmas'ers arc- permitted to fra k letters containing money for subscriptions. The notes of any bank, current where the subscri ber resides, will be received by us at par. To insure all the numbers, the subscriptions should be in Washiiig'ot! bv tire loth Decemb. r next, at farthest, though it is probable that we shall print enough surplus copies to fill every subscription that may be paid befire the Ist day of January next. iLffjp No attention will be paid to any order unless the money accompanies it.
