Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Checklist of Public Documents: Containing Debates and Proceedings of Congress, From the First to the Fifty-Third Congress
The regular classification of documents as executive and miscellaneous began with the Thirtieth Congress. The first is supposed to embrace all documents sent to the Senate or House of Representatives by the Executive Departments; the second all other documents, excepting reports of committees, ordered printed by either House. This distinction is, however, not always maintained.
Except as otherwise indicated, the volumes of this series are octavo.
