THE GLOBE: THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF CONGRESS. ■ TMIAI.E Pl 151.1*11 Tin: daily! I Gl.OßFiind dfc CONGRESSIONALGLOBF ", J APPENDIX during the ntx’ session ofi Congress. ■b< DAILY G'T.OBE will cantain » K port of the Debates in both branches of Con--ressas taken down be reporters equal, at lea-t to anv corps of short hand writers in this, or tn tn y other country. When the debates of the do not make more titan forty five columns, shall appear in the Daily Globe ofthe next morning, which will contain, also the nP ws ofthe day, together with such editorial ar ' ticks as may he suggested by passing events. ’ The Cono’esswnai. Globe and Appendix will contain a report of all the Debates in Congress revised by the speakers, the Messages of the President of the United States, the Annual Reports of the Heads of the Executivi Departments the Reports of Committees of Congress on important subjects of general interest, the Laws passed during the session, and copious indexes to all. Thev will be printed on a double royal I sheet, in book form, royal quarto size, each numbar containing sixteen pages, averaging -J,1'95 words per page. The whole * ill make oetween 1,700 and 2,000 pages. It is believed that no book has ever been published at so low a rate. Last year I advertised in the Daily Globs, for lix months, and in about, one hundred other newspapers in the United States, a reward of JOIS, to be paid to any person who would produce a book published at so low a rate, and none was produced. The large number of copies subscribed for by Congress enables me to afford the Debates to subscribers so cheap. The Congressional Globe and Appendix pass free through the mails ol the United Slates, as will be seen by reading the following joint resolution by Congress the 6th of August, '852: JOINT RESUTION providing lor the distrition of the Laws of Congress and the Debates thereon: With a view to the cheap circulation of the laws of Congress and the debates contributing to the true interpretation thereoff, and to make ; free the ccmmuciation between the representa- j tire and constituent bodies— Be it resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives ofthe United States of America, in Congress assembled, That from and alter thi'present session of Congress the CongressionalGlobx and Appendix, which contain the laws nndthc the debates thereon, shall pass free through the mails so lor. gas the same shall be published by order of Congress: Provided, that no’hingh 'rein .-.hall b- construed to authorize theciteuiatton ofthe Daily Gloll free of postage Approved August 6. 1‘52 ‘ TERM 8. Rwacopy of Daily Globe four months $3 00 For a copy for a less time, (per month) 100 For a copy <>f the Congressional Globe and Appendix during the session 3 f 'O Bank .totes, current in ttesection of the conn try where a snb-ciibers resides, will be received at par. The whole or any part of a subscription may be remitted in postage stamps, which are preferable to any currency, except gold or silver Where bank notes under $5 cannot be procured, I will send two copies for $5. A paper will not be sent utiles the money accompanies the order for it. I cannot afford toexchange with all the newspapers that desire the Globe; but I will send the Daily Globe during the session to all who shall publish this propectus three times before the first Monday ol next December. Those who may publish should send their papers containing it to me, niarktd with a pen, to direct attention to it. The Congressional Globe and AmNDtx will be stereotyped; and. therefore, I shall be able to send the back numbers for this session so all who may subscribe after the session commences; but if the first edition shall have been exhausted before the subscription money is received, I shall charge $1 additional pel copy to pay the expense of put ting the plates on the press. Subscriptions should reach me as early as the first week of December to insure complete copies at the prices advertised above. JOHN C. RIVES, Nov. 19, 1858. Washington City, D. C.

PROSPECTUS CTT'rn* 3113 D IMlffi'A STUB SEHnH, 1858. It is the intention of the Proprietors ofthe Sentinel to make it in all respects a newspaper worthy the support ofthe Democracy of Indians And itt the proportion its circulation is increased and its advertising patronage enlarged will be our ability to add to its interest. Having no local Agents’ we depend entirely upon the efforts of our political friends to extend its circulation. In no cheaper or more effectual way can political intellence be circulated, zeal excited and party organization preserved, than through the medium of the press, AU then, who are de sirious ofthe sflecea of Democratic pnnctples ar.d policv, can s.'rve the cause in no better way than in extending .he circulation ofthe political organs of the party. The year, upon which wo have entered, will doubtless be one of important events- Upon all matters of public interest we snail give full ami reliable intelligence An important State election occurs next Octou- r- A new Legtslalature, members of CongrcV-Supreme Judges, and most ofthe State officers are to be ‘•lectcd It. is only by sleepless vigtlence and unt.’ing effort that we can expect tomaintain the supremacy of the Democratic ptJrty. It behooves every Democrat, then, to inform himself upon the issues of the dav, which it will be the object, of the Sentinel faithfully topresent, and thus be I prepared for the conflict. I The Sentinel will be governed in its political course by the authoratively expressed sentiments oftheparty. The principlesar.d policy it promulgates it will be our aim to advocate ar.d defend, believing that upon the integrity of the Democratic party rests the preservation of our unequalled Government. It will represent the Democratic party of Indiana; not cliques, factions or men. It will be impartial towards all candidates for party favor but whoever it may select as candidates for public position, and -its representative men, it will be our object to eLct end sustain. The Sentinel will pay especial attention to commercial news, ‘he aubtcvlti rai. interests of the State, and all miscellaneous intelligence We have made arrangements for the news by telegraph as full as the Cincinnati papers This will add largely to our expenses, for which we hope to be remunerated by an increased circulation. We will, also, send the Daily by express to all the principal points in the State. terms: Strickly in Advance. Daily Sentinel, per annum, $6 00 Daily Sentinel, per month, 50 Weekly Sentinel.single subscribers,! year 1 50 Weekly Sentinel,clubs of five, 6 25 Weekly Sentinel,'clubs of ten, 10 00 And the same rate forover that number Those who send clubs of twenty or over, w ill be entitled to one copy of the paper without charge.
