1884 United States House Of Representatives Elections
The 1884 United States House of Representatives elections were held for the most part on November 4, 1884, with four states holding theirs early between June and October.

Elections were held for 325 seats of the United States House of Representatives, representing 38 states, to serve in the 49th United States Congress.
