"Sight of thn left longer than that of the right eye.
Prospectus for tlic Congressional
Globe and Appendix.
T HESE works will be publlshod by us during
tho approaching session o r Congress. They
huvnlmdstich a wide circulation in the United States,
nnd their tisefulnes* nnd cheapness are so utiiversni
ly acknowledged, that we deem it unnecessary to
give a derailed account of what the future mimhets
will contain. Suffice it to any thnt they will be in
valuable to all who feel nn interest in the proceed
ingsnf Congress. No other publication gives them
so full, nor half so chenp. It is, indeed, thu cheap
cit publication in the United States—perhaps in the
world. Our position at the seat of Government etm
kies us to print them nt so low n rale. Wo nre Com
pelted to publish tho proceedings of Congress in tin
mil, for our daily paper. This done, it requires,
comparatively, hut u small nddilionul expenso to
change them to thu forms of ilia Congressional Globe
nnd Appendix. If it were not for these circum
stance*, wo could not publish them for four times
the sutn charged. In some parts of tho United
Stutes. tho white paper, upon which these works ure
printed, would sell for as much ns we charge fur
the publication*.
Tho Federal party having succeeded lit electing
their candidate to the I'residcncy, its leaders will
now have to declare tho policy they intend to pur
sue. They will he obliged to make It known at the
beginning of thn npnrouching session of Congress,
'fhey cannot avoid it, or put It off'any lunger.
Those tylio support them will be eager ta know how
it willbuncfit their interests, and will drive llioui to
it. All the measures nf the coming Administra
tion, except turning out the men who hold tho mi
nor offices, must originnto nnd he matured in Con
gress. The Democratic party should know them
as soon os possible, to see how their interests will
he effected, and their lights encroached upon by
them. There is no soutco from which it con ob
tain tlic information so early, to full and so cheap,
ns the Congressional Globe nnd tho Appendix. All
tho motions and resolutions will he given in the
Con'rcsMonul Globe in the oxurt words oftheper
sons milking or offering thutm Tim substance of
llte speeches made will bo given in ill uho the yea*
nnd nays, token from the journal, on nil tho impor
tanl questions. Tho Appendix will givo the speeches
us written out by tho members thermo Ives. Wo
think it all-important tluit the people should be in
formed oflhe sayings and doing* of their members
while in session,und shall therefore spuro neither
labor nor money to furnish them. If tho Federal
members sltull continue to advocate one set of men
sure* here, nnd nnothor nt home, tho Congressional
Gtoho und Appendix willgivc their constituents the
evidence to confront them.
Thu Congressional Globe will be made up of tho
dully proceedings of the two Houses of Congress,
ond tho speeches of the members condensed.—
Tito yets and nays on nil important subjects nro
given. It is published as fast ns the business of
tho two Houses uffords mntter enough foru number.
Kuch number will contain sixteen rojal quarto
pages of small type. We expect to publish three
numbers for nvety two weeks of the session.
Tho Appendix’contains llio speeches of the mem
iters, nt full length, written out by themselves; nnd
is printed in tho same form as the Congressional
Globe. It will he published us fust as the speeches
can he prepared by the ntemlters.
Each of these works is complete In itself. But
it is desirable fur every subsetiber to have both ;
because, if iltorii should bo any umbiguity in the
synitposis of it speech in the Congressional Globe,
or nny denial uf its correctness, it may he removed
ut once, by referring to the speech in tho Appcit
dix.
Indexes to both are sent to subscribers ns soon as
they can be prepnred after tho adjournment of Con

Proposals of a New Work
To OK KNTITLKD
GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED,
In a serits of Original Pictures, on steel, with
teller-press descriptions.
T he plan iif publishing in successive numlu-v*,
pictorial works, illustrative Uf tin* xUOncry of
countries, bus lung been n popular ono in Euhlpo
nnd i* rapidly gaining fu or lit our uwu ruuntry,
Tho prospectus to I-sue such u wink, devoted to
tho scenery of Georgia,although novel, will undottht
cdly find tinivcrsul favor, and bn regarded its it is by
tho editor, it plan at once felicitous nnd fensihln.—
lhere is ItuiCli scenery in our Slate, that it not stir
passed in beauty nad sublimity, by thnt of any other
Stnto in the Union. The upper cOunlies itln.nud ill
scenes, which need only to he known to command
the admiration of all who luvo thcbrnnliesofmitnio.
Much of thu scenery of the north is inferior to our
own, but is yet visited by thousands simply heettusu
it has been xcriUtn, Jim#and ‘‘lionised" hyntuhors
and travellers, until it* beauty has liecotue universal,
ly known and appreciated, ’it is dosilahln thnt nt-
lentinn should Ire directed to our own resources of
tho picturesque iu natural scenery, nnd when this is
done, our own noil northern tourUt* will speedily
render our beautiful views us immortal us war lan
guage.
Tho south is charged with general indifference to
the progress of Literature nnd the Fine Arts! und
probably the strongest foundation for the charge is
found in her inaction iu enterprises calculated to
foster those objects. The publication of tho pro
p.*sed work will, it is believed, bean effective blow
ut this foundation, mid it s<op toward* thu establish
meat of our literary reputation, to which end much
honorable effort is now directed.
A third consideration, and thn last which will
now be urged, is tho intrinsic, value ofsueli it publi
cation ns “ GEORGIA ILLUSTRATED.” It
will embody the representation* of the beautiful nml
sublime in ottr State scentery, and afford to ull, nt a
trifling expense, exact pictures nfoiir mountain*,
vnllies. cataracts, public buildings, See., which rimy
tuny or may) not otherwise behold, but which, in
eithercaso. Would afford pcculiat pleasure.
Tho ptnposud work will he executed iu a style *u
periur to titty similar pictorul wotk in the country.
The plates will be executed mi Meet by eminent en
gravers, from uriginUl drawings, made expressly for
tho purpose, by Mr. T. Addison Richard*, of Au
gustit. Tho engravings will ho nrcuinpunicd with
letterpress descriptions, prepared for I it e wotk, and
in this department the editor Will secure, ns far as
posiiblo, the insurance and co operation of our
boil writers. In short no pains will bo spared to
make tho work n perfect gem of its kind, to tho
ond that, it mny meet a welcome reception not only

tenciag tot ilia northern and of that Line, and run
sing through Petersburg. UichlDond, Frederick*,
burg, Washington, Baltimore, &c. by Kuil Roads
andStonmhiitt*.
Traveller* will find this Lino jterfect throughout.
The rail rend* nre in fine order, the engines und cars
new, and of thn most npptovcd con*traction, nnd
lie steamboats unsurpassed by any in the country.
There i# now Itu delay at *ny point,nnd no expense
or tumble Attending the transition of persons or
Impend! from one rail ruud to another. Ft am
Richmond north tho route is now run over by *lnv
light, nnd thn trip is Hindu from Weldon to Balti
more in 21 hours, including nil stoppage*.
Of tho two routes going north from the Wilming-
en rail rood, tho mull futile is thn shortest by 20
mile*) nnd being netirly all rail rtiud, it will bn found
thn most coitftin and expeditious. Tito other Line
through Portsmouth can only compete with it when
it has an early start, wiih favorable weather, fair
wind* and hmooth water. This will be evident to
every traveller, when ho reflects that it has nearly
2(10 tilth)* tif »b*ambont navigation) tin a wide bay,
for the most pnrtotil of sight til* lahd.
There nre no change* nn tho mnllline from cars
to steamboat* in the dead of night; no starling
from a crowded harbor In the dark; no delays from
logs er gales of Wind; nn sen sickness, nnd no long
inti tif alcAtilluwcS foVcetl tortin to the lop of their
peed t<* j-tll.rough in time—all of which will he
?. -t the other route.
The mail litie will he found the most interesting
of the two, a* it pusses through tArgtt and flourish-
tig towns, a plertsnht country, In sight of Mount
Vernon, (clo«« to which the steamboat outlie Poto-
•me passes.) and through Washington City; which
it is believed nretitiiclt tiioh* agreeable objects limn

mute to the Virginia Spring*, and there is now
nearly 1(>0 mile* of mil road front Weldon in thu
direction of the Springs, currying |mssenger* within
a day’s ride of theiti.
The fare is the snrtio As by tho other Hite, tilt'd

I SOUTHERN LITERARY MESSENGER,
T. W. WHIT*, KDITOll AND fltUPKIKTOK.
nPHIS is a monthly Magazine, devoted chiefly to
J. Literature, bat occasionally finding room also
tor articles that fall within the scope of Bctence; and
not pi pressing an entire disdain of tasteful selections,
mough its matter has been •• it will continue to be, in
the main original.
Party Politics nnd controversn! Theology, as far •«
possible,are jealously excluded. They are sonrntiBie*
ao blended with discussion in liternturt or iti moral
■cionce'OthofwUa unobjectionable, as to gain admit
,, 00 7,* «*• »®«e of the rAnrn valuable matter towltich
Urey adhere; hut whenever that happens, thoy ore Incl
dental only, not primary. They .re dross tolerated on
ly because it cannot well be severed from tho sterling
ore wherewith it isincorfHtraied. 5
Reviews and Critical notices occupy their due space
in the work; ami it is the editor’s aim that they should
hare a threefold tendency—to convey in a condensed
Form,such valuable truths or interesting incidents as
are embodied in the works reviewed.—to direct the
readers attention to books that deserve to be read,—
and ti> warn him against wasting time and money upon
that Inrge number, which merit only to lie burned. In
this age, of publication* that by their variety nnd multi
tude distract and overwhelm every undiscriininnting
student, impartial criticism governed by the views just
mentioned, i^one ol the moat inestitnutile and indispen
sable of auxiliaries, to him who does wish to diacritul
note,
E.u>ny*, ond Tales, having in view utility or ntnuse
meat) or belli— Historical Sketches, nnd Reminiscencea
of too minute for History, yet elucidating it and heighten
ing its interest,—tuny be regarded ns forming the staple
ol the work. Andnf indigenous Poetry, enough Is pub
lislicd—sometimes ofmi tueuusi.ain—to manifest nnd
to cultivate the growing poetry, taste nnd talents of our
country
The time appears, for several reasons, to demand
such a work: and not one alone, but many. The pub
lie mind is feverish and irritated still, from recent po
jttical strifes. The soft ussuasive influence of literature
is needed, to allay that fever .md suioothe that irrita
lion. Vice and fully are rioting abroad: they should bo
driven by indignant rebuke, or lashed by ridicule, into
their lilting haunts. Ignorance lord* itoYerau immense
i iroponion ot'aur people. Every spring should he set
n motion, to arouse rite enlightened; and to increase
their number; so that the great enemy of popular gov
eminent may no longer brood) tike o portentous cloud
over the destinies of our country. And to accomplish
ail these ends, what more powerful ogent can he cm
doyed, than n periodical, on the plan oflhe Messenger;
Ftlint plan he but carried out in practice ?
The .South peculiarly requires such an ngent. lit
nil tlie Union, south of Washington, there are but two
literary periodicals? Northward of that city, there nre
jrobnbly ut least twenty live or thirty!—Is tViscontrast
ustilied by the wealth, tlie leisure, the native talent,
the nctual lilcmty taste, of tliu Southern people,
nntraml witlt those of the Northern! No: for in
wealth, talents nml taste, we may justly claim at leant
an equality with our brethren; ami a domestic institu
tion exclusively our own, beyond all doubt, affords us,
if wc choose, twice the leasure fur reading and writing
which they enjoy.
it was trom n deep sense of this local want that tlie
Word Southern was engrafted on this periodical; and
not with any design to nourish local prejudices; or to
advocate supposed local interests. Far from i nysuclt
thought, it is tin: editor’s fervent wish to see the North
and South bound end a ring ly togethei forever, in tlie
silken hands of mutuat kindness nnd affection. Far.
fiom mediating hostility to tho North, lie lins already
drawn nod he hopes therefore to draw much of htit
choicest mutter thence: and happy indeed will lie deem
himself, should his pages, by making each region known
the oilier better, contribute in any assenatif degree to
di*pel the lowering clouds thnt now threaten tliu peace
of both, and to brighten und strengthen tlic sacred ties
orfraicriml love.
The Southern Literary Messenger lias now reached
the 11th No. oftiiu third volume. Ihnv far it lias acted
out the ideus here uttered, is not fur tlic editor to say.
He believes, however, that it falls not further short of
them,than human weakness usually makes Practice
fall short of Theory.
