The apportionment of seats in this House of Representatives was based on the 1870 United States census.
The Democrats were still able to control the House, however, with the help of the Independent politicians who caucused with them.
Preceding the names in the list below are Senate class numbers, which indicate the cycle of their election.
Lists of committees and their party leaders for members of the House and Senate committees can be found through the Official Congressional Directory at the bottom of this article.
The directory after the pages of terms of service lists committees of the Senate, House (Standing with Subcommittees, Select and Special) and Joint and, after that, House/Senate committee assignments.
