Tricks Against Kansas IN Congress,
INV YoRK, Jan. %.

A correspondent Of the Tribune says: ga
number of leading Democratic politicians
are here, with reference to the question Of
admission OF Kansas. Southern Senators
propose altering the western boundary which
is on the 25th meridian longitude west from
Washington, under the Wyandottc Consti-
tuition, extending il -to-tha summit Of the
Rocky Mountains, and the northern to the
Platte River. This alteration is designed to
make the State Democratic by including o.
600 settlers ct Pixies Peak. IL pasasd it
would require . new election for Congress
and the Legislature. The programme 10 for
the Senate 10 amend the House bin . stated,
and ia the event Of it's refusal to accept the
modifcation, 70 sxslude KansAs the present
