MEMORANDA.


WASHINGTON, March l4.-In the III.
Of Representatives OF the United States,
there are now, out of 1874 members,
only Sir who were members of tie tenth
Congress, (lSG7-S9) and have continued
in the blouse without intermiSsiOn.-Of
those WHO were memherS of that Con
gress, and are members of the present
House, but who have had iniermissions
Of service, there are but six or seven.-
Yet the principle OF rotation is even more
strongly illustrated, in the Senate of the
United States, though intended nv the
Constitution 10 be The more permanent
service. In that body there is but one in
dlVlduaI who WAS u Senator IN the tenth
Congress. In the Senate at present eight
members out Of forty were members of.
The House Of Representatives IN the tenth
Congress and OF Tie present House Of
Representatives two members were in that
Congress Senators, both from the state of
Maryland.
These facts afford materials for much
reflection on The practical operation efour
system OF government.
1t may be added, that there is no mem
her of the Executive Department of the
government who was then concerned in
the administration Of flIe government
Mr.. MoNRoEwas then Minister abroad,
and Mr.. ADAMS a Member Of The Senate.
OF the present Governors of he several
states, there is not one who at that day
filed fhe same Office OF the twenty, two
were then Representatives in Congress.

the opinions and charge delivered BIZ the

entitled on his part 10 give evidence that
the persons, of whose prior use of the

! ly that he could support an action for the
use iany one or more Of those machines,
without license.
