Ii Is well To have vines planted so that the

The HOUSE,

II has already been shown in these
columns that the Liberal Republicans
and Democrats cannot hope to secure n
majority in the United States Senate
next year, even though they should b.
fortunate enough to elect their candidate
for the Presidency in November. 1t
may be interesting, however, too see how
the House of Representatives now stands
and what political changes will be neces-
sary to secure majority of Liberal
Republicans and Democrats in the next
House. The present House consists of
243 members, and under the new arpor-
tionment, pursuant to which the mem.
bers elected this year will be chosen, the
House will contain 292 members. We
give below the strength of political par
ties in the House at the op, ming of the
present (42d) Congress, together witt
the number of Representatives to which
each State is entitled in the next (43d
Congress:

DEMOCRATIC PRIMARIES AND COUNTY
CoNvENTIoN.-In our columns to-day will
be found the call for Democratic Coun.
ty Convention to be held in this place on
the 10th of October. The primaries for
the election of delegates to the Conven-
ton will be held in the several precincts
on the 2Sth of September. as no test
for voters was adopted by the County
Committee, we are left to infer that the
Recommendation of the State Committee
is acquiesced in. The State Committee
suggested n test, the effect of which is to
require an endorsement of the platform
adopted at Cincinnati and re-affirmed at
Baltimore, coupled with pledge to snp-
port the Greeley and Brown ticket. The
primary is an important one, as the dele
gates elected to the County Convention
will have the nomination Of n senator,
three Assembymcn, Sheriff, Clerk and
other county officers.
