“ The undersigned, Members of Congress, take great pleasure in recommending De Bow's Review to the people of the Southern and Western States, a work which has been edited and published in New Orleans for the last five years, by J. D. B. De Bow, and which embraces, in a monthly series of numbers, the most complete and reliable facts and statistics relative to the progress and development of all the great branches of industry in the States, whether in COMMERCE, AGRICULTURE, MANUFACTURES, or INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT; as also the growth and progress of POPULATION and IMPROVEMENT, the question of SLAVERY IN ALL ITS BEARINGS, SOCIAL AND POLITICAL, SLAVE PRODUCTS, &c. The published volumes of this work constitute an invaluable library of SOUTHERN AND WESTERN STATISTics, and have already become a standard authority."
