the lead of all other Bitters, and are
destined to become as famous and pop

when the people decide in favor of any
thing OF the kind, they are generally
right. We are lately meeting a good
many who are using the Constitution,

 Wife TradsnG.I

A late numberof the Efringham (Ill.) Democrat speaks of acoupie of fellows in that county that have been swapping women. We have heard of instances before where husbands have traded wives, but this is the first instance that we ever noticed where q father traded daughter to husband for his wife. This gross barbarism was developed in the courts of that county last week. It appers, says the Democrat, that at or near Mason, preacher named Deitz-- heaven save ihe mark !--traded his daughter to his neighbor, named Burns, for his wife, agreeing to give as boot between the daughter and wife S5.0O0.
 In accordance with this trade the husbaad left the wife and took the daughter off to St. Louis and the wife placed herself under the care of the trading preacher.
 After Burns had frolicked around St. Louis awhile with the daughter. he returned to Mason and demanded his boot money, which the Rev. old scoun- drel refused to pay, and then Burns had him arrested for scducing his wife, and the trial developed the aboyc facts.

Young Married Man Shot and Killed by His Father.ln- Law,
 I'm Self.DefeNse.

We learn from Colonel Pryor that tragedy of a peculiar character took place at old Spring Dale, five miles from Water Valley, last Friday evening just after dark. A young man, twenty two years of age, named Frank Wilson. was killed by his fathcr-iG-law Mir Isaiah Goodwin, respectable and well-to-do citizen. The circumstances were briefly as follows: Mir. Wilson having been to Water Valley to sell some cotton, Friday, returned home to his fathcr-in-law's, about dark, in n state eofintoxication. At such times he has always been noted for violence of speech and actions. He had remarked on his way home that when he got back there would be h--l to pay. After putting away his team lie went out of his little house, mere office in Mir. Goodwin. yard, and called on the old gentleman to come out and see him kill that hog, at the same time flourshing his revolver in the air and facing the house.
 MT. Goodwin kncw there was no hog about, aud being aware of threats against his life by his son-in-law, took down his gun, to be ready to defend himself. Wilson advanced toward the entry, and when he got sight of Mr. Goodwin, fired at him. The bullet grszcd MT. Goodwin's head He re- turned the fire from double- -barreled shotgun. and full load of buckshot took effect in Wilson's breast, killing him instantly.
 An examination was held the follow ing day before a magistrate, when Mrs. Wilson testified that her husband told her several days before that he inten- ded to s.kill her old daddy" and simi- lar threats it was proven had been made by him at various times and places, especially when he was drink ing. Mr. Goodwin was discharged, of course, as it was clear cass of self. defense. Wilson and his father-in- law had had some title difficulty few weeks ago, but what it was did not ap pear on the examination. Wilson had been maraicd one year only, and be- sides his wife left clii!d.-Mcmphis Avalanche 26th ut.

WAsHIkGroN, D. C., Jan. IF, 1869.
 A bill was introduced in the Hoase day before yesterday. by Mir. Boutwell,, to enforce the provisions of the l4ih amendment 10 .hc Constitution, the first section of which confers the right Of suffrage on all persons without dis tinction of race or color or former con dition ofslavcrv. The second denom- ces . penalty against officers of election who shall refuse to take the vote ofany person to whom the right to vote is given by the first section. The third section punishes by fine or imprison- ment all persons who, after the passage of the act, shall continue to hold or exercise the functions of any office in violation of the 3d section of the l4th amendment. The bill was referred without debate to the committee on Judiciary, where it will doubtless re- main till the adjournment of Congress, Without the 3d section the bill might pass this Congress. There Is strong desire among leading Republicans to pass some act comforting the right Of suffcrage on the negro, and an equally strong desire to relieve all disabilities imposed by the 14th amendment Judge Bingham favors remoyeing the disabilities of all who apply for their removal. Senator Fcrr, of Connecti- cut, favors the removal of all disabili- tics and introduced bill in the Senate to that effect several days ago. Banks, Logan, Garfield, Schenck, Butler, Washburne, Wilson, Colfax, and most of the leading members of the House, and almost the entire Senate, say that for the present Congress should be governed by the merits of each particu- lar case, and this is the rule that will doubtless govern both houses of the present Congress. The next Congress will for while be governed by the same rule, but, mark me, it will not be six months after the assembling of thc next Congress till all are relieved. It has leaked out in the last few days that Grant favors this policy, and it is gain ing ground every day. Gen. Bnrbridge wrote letter to friend in Kentucky, q few days ago, in which he takes strong ground in favor of universal amnesty. There are quite number of Kentuckians here. among whom arc Judges Good.ee and Burton, Generals Croxton. Fry and Harlan, Colonels Milward. Gili, Kelley, Burns, Bristow. Messrs. Cobb. Long and Bsrkhousc, aud Colonel Dick Wintersmith.
 A bill relieving certain Kentuckians of political disabilities is pending be- fore the Reconstruction committee, and will doubtless be passed by the lst of next month.

Proposed Division or Texas.

The Washington correspondent of the Boston Post telegraphs the fol- lowing:
 The Constitutional Convention of Texas, now in session at Austin, has been engaged in a bitter contest over the question of dividing the State. Those opposing the division, however. are likely to come off conquerors thro' the direct interference of Gen. Grant, wip has addressed letter to General Cahby instructing him to notify the convention that 1t had assembled under tho provision of the reconstruction laws to franc constitution for the State, not to divide it. Gen. Grant remarked that he thought one Texas was amply sufficient to have on hand inr the present, and, from reports, he misnt well doubt if that one was pre-. pared for eivii enrrrnnrpt-
