All the United States senators for terms beginning March, 1879, have been chosen, making the Senate to consist of forty-two Democrats, thirty-three Bepublicans, and one Independent—Davis, Illinois. The President's support by the Democrats, it is said, was aided by the President agreeing to call the Senate in extra session on March 4; so that the Democrats, who have a majority, can immediately organise the Senate with Democratic officers.
