Honor to Susan B. Anthony.

The Watertown (N. Y.) Times, of December 24, tells this:
Night before last the train from the south, owing to the vast amount of snow upon the track, did not reach the city till about 12 o'clock midnight. It so happened that the distinguished Miss Anthony was on the train, together with three young fellows and an unprotected female who has resided a mile or so from Watertown for some time, and is therefore known in this vicinity. The young men above mentioned had with them some strong drink, and while passing it around of course did not fail to offer some to the young lady who was alone, informing her that it was only wine, and just the thing for a cold night. Accordingly, the girl took a draught of strong whisky, and in a short time was feeling about as happy as young ladies ever do. The young men joined in and did everything they dared to do with the girl, who was too overjoyed to resist anything. These proceedings had been going on for some time, and had been observed by Miss Anthony, who had been sitting a number of seats behind them. But they were not of the right nature for a woman like her to bear. She accordingly approached the party and asked the girl to go with her. She received a saucy and indignant reply, when, without any hesitancy, she took the girl by the arm and brought her from the embrace of one of the heroes of the contest. She took her into her own seat, and there, in the bearing of those around them, gave her a lecture that would be of value to any young man or woman. She took the girl with her to the Woodruff House, and after another season of speech-making put her to bed and placed the key under her own pillow, that she might be positive the girl was safe for once.
