There is room for a more than now sit in the chamber, but it will be impossible to add fifty seats, with desks, without taking up all the space leaving room for passage behind the rail- As each member is entitled to a year salary. a clerk, for stationery and his mileage, the addition of fitly members would increase the ex- of the House about per annum, to say nothing of the additional cost of carrying their franked matter in the mails. On the other hand, to increase the ratio representation to which would leave the about or almost the present figures, might endanger the representation of some States in tho House and would certainly shift the lines of some Congress districts so as many cases to throw two members of the House in the same district.
