 The ThistyArst Ceagress. l1 We give bslsw alist of he rasmbsss slsc, of tho present Congress, which met on Monday the 3d instant.
 This sessien viii perhaps, bs one of the moss i'm Portant that has ever been eonsensA. Among oshes projects that will bs brought up for their consera- tion' will be the long agItated slavery question: The stand taken by the ssuth upon this subject may have some influence uPon the Norshegn repre- ssntatives and tsach them that thers are rights which cannot be radely trampIed SpOn by . mere numerical majority. The notifications @ sf the Tariff and sub Treasury will also have to be acted upon. There Is, however. | small majority Of fdsm- oCEats who VIII pull together In thsss questions. There are thirteen or foarteen members who were elected as free sOileIA free soil pledges and cannot be counted on for either psrty's candidate for Speaker. They arc Allen, of Nass, (whiv. ] Tuck, of New Hampshire, (whIg,) Preston King. of New York, tdem.,l Howe, twhig.' and WlpOs (vhig,) of Pennsylvania; Campbell, Hunter. Root. Giddngs and Crowell, (whigu,l of Ohio sprague, (dem.,) of Michigan Durkee, (dem..) of wiscOn- sin Julian. tdem J OfIndiana. The N Y Tribune also considers Mann. of Massachusetts,, as in the same cass.
 The democratic vote, without the free soil demo. crats named, would be ll2 the whigs. without the freesOn whigs. lO4, or lO5. according as Mir Mann votes.
 A majority of tAs whole House is lls it thsre- fore follows that neither party can elect officers without votes from enc of tho others.
 For the following list we sre indebted to the N o. Creseent It Is tho most correct that we have as yet been able to obtain. There Is one vacancy in Massachusetts. The whole number of Representa- tives Is 230.
