tain a full history of the proceedings ol Consresa.
Gales and Seaton's Register of Debates, which con
tained a history, has been discontinued for three or
lour year?. It cost about five times as much for a
session as the Congress ional Globe and Appendix,
and did not contain an equal amount f matter, a
"real f ortiou of the eurrent. proceedings bens omit-
eare enabled 1o print tbe Congressional
Globf: and Appendix at the low rate now proposed,
by having a large quantity of type, and keeping the

and semi-weekly Globes, stanuing fbr the Con
gressional Globe and Appendix. It wc had to set
np the matter purposely for tbese works, we could
not afib-d to print tliem for double the price now
charged.
Coinp'ete indexes to both tbe Congressional Globe
and the Appendix are printed at the 'close ofeach
ses.-ion, and sent to all subsc:iers for them.
We h ive on hand 3,000 or 4,0UO sui pi is copies
of the Congressional Globe and Appendix for the
extra session, which make 1 blether near l.Ot'O roj'al
quario pages. They give the fullest history ot
Congress that has ever been published. We now
sell them for $1 each; thai is, $1 for the Congres
sional Globe, and S 1 for the Appendix. We pro
pose to let subsci ibers fur the Congressional G obs
and A ppend x for the next, session, bave them for
50 cents each. They will be necessary to under
stand fully the proceedings of the next session.
The important matters discussed at the last, will be
brought up at the next session, in consequence of
the universal dis.satistaction evinced in the late
elections with the vast and novel system of policy
which the new powers have introduced, and which
was forced throush Congress without consulting
puhl-c opinion, or even allowing the full discussion
usual in regard to subjects of ordinary interest.
Tne reports of the Congressional Globe and Ap
pendix are not in the least degree affi cted by tbe
party bias ol the Ediior. They are given precisely
as written tmt by the Reporters and the members

in review in our daily sheet, in case any misunder
standing or misrepresentation of their remarks

We make a daily anal ysis of the doings in Oon

In style it is plain and unpretending;, with
only an occasional barbarism, such- as tbe
"can do no other" in the following passage:
"And we can do no other than contemplate
its further exemplification by a sister Republic
with the deepest interest."
In matter and spirit it is marked by un
steadiness and timidity, evincing more of a
nervous anxiety to please, than of a proud
confidence in the right. There is no clear
perception and firm grasp of principle none
of the bold onward bearing directness of the
skilled pilot; but the backing and filling iude
cisioii of a Captain bewildered on the ocean,
and depending on the indulgence of his crew,
and the mercy of the element, to bear him
iuto some haphazzard halfway harbor. It
seems as if the eye of the wrilor, straining af
ter the popular, could but dimly diacry the
true, which it never beheld in the commanding
nearness of irresistible attraction. Whenever
the topic admits of it, he reminds us of the
poor cat in the adage; and his "would" is al
ways too weak for the "dare not' that waits
upon it. When he talks of the Constitution,
it is not as an ardent worshipper, but ns if in
deference to thw veneration of others for it,
aud as though with himself, it were an incon
venient thing which, with a plausible pretext
furnished him, he would not very 'tinreliictanf
ly evade; he never asserts it in the trust-inspiring,
champion spirit of no who has lock
ed it to his heart with bolts of steel; but de
fends so doubtingly, so indifferently, so incon
sistently, lhat his sword arm dangles neive
less under his shield, and chink after chink in
his unbraced panoply, tells cralinelv of in-
closed rivets in his unfilled armor.
The attitude assumed towards England and
her aggressions, instead of being firm yet con
ciliatory, is deprecatory and pusillanimous.
W hen speaking of the trial of McLeod, the
Message says:
"The manner in which the issue submitted
was tried, will satisfy the English Government
that the principles of justice will never fail to
govern the enlightened decision of an Ameri
can tribunal."
Th'rs was enough; New York had impartial
ly enforced her laws in the trial of an individ
ual charged with outraging them. If England
dislikes the laws of New York, let her not
make her subjects obnoxious to them. Noth
ing can justify an American President, at this
time, pending tbe many insolently aggressive
perpetrations of England, fbr adding tbe fol
lowing obsequious recommendation:
"I cannot fail, however, to suggest to Con
gress the propriety, and in some degree, the
necessity, of making such provisions by law,
so far as they may constitutionally do so; for
the removal at their commencement, and at
the option of the party, of all such cases as
may hereafter arise, and which may involve
the faithful observance and execution of our
international obligations, fronr the State to tbe
Federal Jud ic iar v."

and Distribution IVi!
The Fiscal plan is nut forth
which he seems . sick of Ffifving ub
about which he docs not understand'
nor care a great deal but as he was not bold
enough, when he vetoed the Whig scheme,
to do so without qualifying the veto with a
ptedffe to offer f hem semetbino- akin fo the re
jected schemes fae proposes a substitute pos
sessing as many ot the bad qualities or tho
Whig fiscal ity as no. could incorporate con
sistently with his vetoes. H is scheme has tho
poor merit of being better than theirs; if avoids
the unconstitutional usurpation of incorpora
ting a trading cempany to have the use of the
people's capital but undertakes that an irre
sponsible board of government official shall
interfere with the business pursuits of the peo
ple, corrupt the currency and trade in ex
changes a scheme which the Democracy will
of course reject but which certainly admit
of abuses and corruption euough to commend
it to the favor of the Whig3. Such a fiscal
agent leagued with the local banks, and with
Clay, Biddle, E wing, Coperthwaite and Web
ster at the head of the lipard, rould do mon
strous things enough te satisfy (ho mot con
firmed hnrd-ciderife, and after a few years op
eration, would confirm the people in the con
viction of the value of an abstinent govern
ment and a constitutional eutrency ifthq
Sub-Treartiry is not already sufficiently vindi
cated. His reasons for declining to enter in
to a comparison between the paper aud me
talic system is unstatesman-iike. The prac
tical statesman should never find it too Into to
do right, and to abandon what is established
if it be found pernicious. The question be
longs to the present, after the mischiefs of tho
paper system have been felt, much more than
it did to the period of if a introduction as an
experiment. If instead of abandoning abuses,
wc are to patch them up and perpetuate thm
by way of "lookiug at things as they are,"
and "taking them as we find thenf ' there is
an end to all improvement, and truth must re
main at the bottom of her well, because tern
porizing rulers are of too weak vision to con
front her. We would have done with this
shuffling, which instead of buckling itself to
tbe task of abolishing wrong and vindicating
right when the occasion offers of cutting a
mischievous connexion, renews and clings to
it under tbe timid and disingenuous plea that
it is not an open question." The Constitu
tion closed the door against the Federal Gov
ernment dealing in paper banking, and usur
pation made it an open question, and shall tho
people be told, because they once submitted,
that it is no longer an open question whether
they shall prohibit the revival of the falling ty
ranny, and vindicate feeir freedom from gov
ernment interference and re-establish the Con
stitution? - Such slavish reasoning befits the
apologists "of corruptions, against which they
nave not tbe virtue nor courage to struggle
but it ill becomes the representatives of free
men. - -,.."
