ADVERTISEMENT.

THE order, in which the documents appear in our volumes, is, in every instance, where the contrary is not mentioned, that in which the government have published them. The papers accompanying a message may fill four or five hundred pages, and may be purposely arranged in a mode different from the chronological, as the several divisions of subjects have rendered necessary. Some of the subscribers have wholly mistaken this subject of the confusion of dates, and have imputed blame to the publishers for following the authentick documents, which they undertook to print precisely as they were issued. In the present volume, on page 406, it is mentioned that certain "documents were not communicated in time to be inserted in the order of date." This is not the note of the present publishers, but of the Congress printers, and we did not think ourselves authorized to alter the original.
