LEAvENwORTH, Feb. /.
A bill abolishing slavery has been under
consideration, but no definite action has been
taken. Both branches have been principally
engaged in local legislation.
Judging from the late election for the
adoption Of the Wyandotte Constitution, the
general belief is that the project of enlarging
the boundaries of Kansas, would be voted
down by large majority.
