Some surprise is menifeeted at the

'Ott: ofthe ch est seats on the derno-
. cratie side Of the Senate eleueber,
When the Seeate was eceposed al -
must of republicans it was necessary
to give the members a that party seats
on both sides of the meet aisle; but
'when the division of members hetweee,
',the two parties grewito be eomething

-dividing Hee politically, the republi-
cans eucepying the seats on the east,
and the denioerats on the west side.
'This divisionee simply a custom, and

Senators to one side or theother; but
it is as custom that ha generally been
observed when there has not been too
great it numerical preponderanee of one
party to make it practicanle. The
:seat selected by Senator Blair is »At

would be glad to have it. Senator
Blair found ib out of the question to
jprocure an eligible seat on the republi-
-can side, so he crossed the aisle. In
the last: Congress he had a seat way
round at the end of one of the rows
ilexteothe lobby, ancl he said that he
.couldtrerely ever catch the eye of the
presictiug.officer when he wanted rec-
ognitime His chief reason for taking
the democretic seat is tliat it will place
Lira right hi front of the presiding offi-
cer and eno.ble him to obtain recognit,
