After the reorganization of 1870 it was as follows:
| Senate. | Lower House. | |||
| Republicans | 27 | 87 | ||
| Conservatives | 17 | 83 |
The figures in the second and third tables are based upon the changes produced only by the official transactions referred to. Perhaps some slight corrections might be made on account of accidental circumstances, such as the non-attendance or death of a few members.
