Jhe two Houses haying contracted with us for the work, on such terms as enable us now to make complete reports, to multiply and issue the numbers in quicker succession than here tofore, and without increasing (he price to sub scribers, we hope to make a good return for the liberality and high official sanction thus bestowed on the publication. We shall increase the volume at least one-third beyond the ordinary bulk; and endeavor to add toils usefulness by extending still further its large circulation, ° 1 his last is not the least important point in the vlewjof Congress. Faithful and durable reports of the debates of the body are of yalqe in proportion to the extent of their circqlation among the people. is in this way that Congress is brought into the presence of its remote constituents—that it obtains easy access and holds communication with them from day today, and renders the government real ity representative. Having received from all parties in Congress the strongest marks of approbation and confidence in the liberal means and permanent contract voted to continue the work, we shall ijof be found wantin'* in the impartiality and industry necessary to the due fulfilment of the engagement on our part. The next session will task to the utmost the best efforts of those connected with the undertaking. It will |>e distinguished by discussions of a ary in terest and results of abiding concern. The war, its origin and conduct by officers jn the cabinet and ju the held, will furnish of profound inquiry and consideration. The terms of peace, the dis position to be made of conquests, the consequences to be drawn from ail that has been done, as affect ing parties in this country, and especially as bear ing on the approaching presidential election, will open up novel and powerfully operating discus sions, rendering tne councils at Washington during the next year as pregnant of good or evil to this continent as those of Rome were to the Old World in the days of her early energy. Such a field for {deliberation and action was never presented to any Congress. All that has transpired, or may here after transpire before the close of the approaching session of Congress, in New Mexico, California, in 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 sults, whether they be decided by arms or diplo macy. And whateyer is developed concerning this vast and interesting matter on the floor of Con gress or in the Executive messages, will be found recorded in the CqNQRF-SSjoNAL Globe and Ap pendix. The Congressional Globe is made up of the <}aily proceedings of the two Houses of Congress, and printed on superfine double royal paper, with small type, (brevier and nonpareil,) in quarto form, each number containing sixteen royal quarto pages. The speeches of the members in this first form, are condensed—Mhe full report of the prepared speeches being reserved for the Appendix, All resolutions, mot ons, find other proceedings, are given in the form of the Journals, with the yeas and nays on every important question. Every member will hare an opportunity to read llis remarks before they are put to press, and alter our report, if he shall thjnk it incorrect. The Appendix is made up of the President's an nual message, the reports of the principal officers of the government that accompany it, and all speeches of the members of Congress, tvritten out or revised by themselves. It is printed in the same lorm as the Congressional Globe, and usually makes about the same number of pages during 4 session. louring the first month or six weeks of a session, there is rarely more business done than will make two numbers a week—one of the Congressional Globe and one of the Appendix; but during the re mainder of a session, there is usually sufficient mat ter lor two or three numbers of each every week. Ihe next session will be unusually interesting, therefore, we, calculate that the Congressional Globe and Appendix together will make near 3,000 large quarto pages, printed in small type—brevier and nonpareil. We furnish complete Indexes to both at the end of a session. We will endeavor to print a sufficient number of surplus copies to supply all that may be miscar ried, or lost in the mails ; but subscribers should be very particular to file their papers carefully, for fear that we should not be able to supply 4.LL the lost numbers. We have a few surplus copies of the Congression al Globe for the last session of Congress, which we will sell for the original subscription price —$1 a cony. We have no surplus copies of the Appendix for that session.

MR. O. B. RICE, (formerly of New York,) Tuner and Repairer of PIANO FORTES AND ORGANS, Respectfully informs those owning Instruments, that he is prepared to do any thing required in his profession. He has in his possession recommenda tions from Mr. J. Chickering, Boston; Messrs. Nunns A Clarke; Firth, Hall & Pond; Stoddart, Worcester A Duncan, New York, and many in the South- A few are here inserted. Boston, June 22, 1843. I take great pleasure in recommending Mr. O. B. RICF, as a Tuner of Piano Fortes, and do not hesi tate to say that he will do justice to any who may wish to employ him. J. CHICIvERJNG. Augusta, (Ga.) March 9, 1841. Mr. O. B. RICE having been engaged in this Jilace for several months, in tuning and repairing *iano Fortes, 1 take pleasure in stating that he proves to be an excellent tuner and experienced repairer of Piano Fortes. 1 therefore recommend him with cpnfidence to the patronage of the pub lic. ANTON IVERSEN. Columbia, Nov. 9,1843. I hereby certify, that Mr. O. B. RICE has been long known to qae as a tuner of Piano Fortes, and I consider him one of the most competent to tune and repair Pianos I have ever met with, I there fore confidently recommend him to those desiring Pianos tuned. I profess to hare some knowledge in his line myself antj speak understandingly. SAMUEL WEIR. MR. RICE has some time in the Factories North, since ’41, and has made several important improvements in repairing Pianos and Organs, and will giye £IOO if any can be found to excel him in tuning or repairing; He has abandoned the old practice of softening and brushing the old leathers on the hammers, and other parts of the machinery, knowing that it gives better satisfaction to put on new leathers and cloth throughout, where it is needed. The tone in Pianos becomes harsh by use, and can be restored in all Instruments that have been well made. His price generally for fuming, re-leathering, See., Nunns A Clarke’s. Chickering’s, and similar Instruments, will be from 10 to 13 dollars. Old English Pianos, from 15 to 20 dollars. For Tuning in the City, Three Dollars. If any desire it, he will call and examine their instruments, and make known the cost of putting them in order. Mr. R. intends staying in Augusta but a few days, if he does not get employment. As he now resides in Cokesburv, Abbeville District, S. C. he will visit Augusta once or twice a year, if patronized. Those, wishing to employ him, will please leave their address at Mr. Grenville’s Book Store, or Mr Chaffee’s Furniture Ware Room, Nov. 25 2J r „. PACTS WORTH KNOWING IT is now universally admitted that the mysterious power of Galvanism has an important and won derful effect on the animal economy; in fact, the whole Nervous or Vital System ha*s been likened to a Galvanic Battery, of which the Brain is the great Centre, the Spinal Column, the connecting chain, and the countless Nerves which ramify from this important structure, the conducting wires whereby the generated influence is brought to every portion of the animal frame. This is not a fanciful theory, but a positive and unquestionable fact, which can be most conclusively demonstrated. It is therefore no matter of astonishment that the new and beautiful application of this wondrous agent, as developed by DR. CHRISTIE’S GAL VANIC RINGS, BELTS. BRACELETS, Ac., should be of such vast benefit in many of the most afflicting diseases to which we are subject. In the long tram of Nervous Complaints, its effects are al most magical, and the most severe cases of Para lysis, Epileptic Fits, Dyspepsia, Bronchitis, Tic Do loreux, Neuralgia, and many other derangements of the nervous system, readily yield to the efficacy of Christie's Galvanic articles and remain per manently cured. Severe cases, in which benefit was unexpected, are often as completely relieved as others. Testimonials of the most respectable character, and pamphlets with full descriptions, rqay be had gratis of authorized agent/pr wfU bp sgnt bv mail. (UTf'AUTiOK.—The great celebrity and success of Dr. Christie s Galvanic and Magnetic Curatives, has caused them to be counterfeited by unprinci pled persons.
