what the expenses of Congress are per session. We
do not mean the pay and mileage Of members-these
may be ascertained without mach trouble, allowing
Col Benton twice as much Of the latter as his col

the cost Of printing Of the libraries letter paper PEN
knives, paper folders, and sealing wax, furnished

We are informed on good authority that the cost OF
paper alone, amounted last session, 70 the enormous
sum of ksRdred and tueHfyfue dollars per member
