1t looks as though our skaters would have
only brief season for their gay revelries this
Winter. For weeks past, tens of thousands OF
young men and women, boys and girls, have
been looking anXiously and hopefully for the
frost that would enable them to begin their
sport on the ice. But December passed with
but one whirling snow storm, which gave no
show for the skaters, and which was followed
only by disappointment. 1t is now the 9th OF
January, but the mercury refuses to go down,
or to keep down, to the point that indicates
the formation of ice of proper strength and
thickness We have no doubt however. that
we will have it before q great while, and the
impatient skaters may begin to make their
preparations for brief and lively time. We
hear of the opening of the skating season in
Indiana, Illinois, and Michigan, while the
Canadians, for weeks past, have been enjoying
it to their hearts content.

DR.. Geo. NJ Bourne, formerly of this City,
but for the last fifteen or twenty years resi-
dent of San Francisco, where he lives on veg
etables and cures people with water, recently
concluded that being GA years old and thus
approaching his prime, he might as well take
a walk so he stepped of, at one minute after
midnight on the morning of the Goth ult.,
taking the old county road for San Jose,
which ne reached at II minutes to in the
evening having walked IS miles in 20 hours
and 80 minutes; counting his steps rs he went
and making 5000 to the hour, saving that, for
two hours of intense darkness, while trayersing
n region wholly unknown to him, he stepped
short and made less headway. lie thus took
in all lO1 ,76S steps coming in fresh as daisy.
and strongly inclined to take the back track
next morning. He drank (as usuaD only water
not having tasted Wine, Liquor, Tea, Coffee, or
Tobacco for the last thirty five years. and ate
only little parched Graham flour while on
his walk.

The new Republican General Committee
meets this evening, and we believe we may
congratulate our friends on the fact that the
feuds which have so long discredted and
weakened us are ended. We understand that
the contested seats are all settled, and that
an organization will tonight be effected un-
der tho auspices of men whom the Tammany
orruptonists can neither manage nor buy.
There are individuals in the new Committee
who have heretofore earned the wages of ini-
DUTY, and therefore are not to be trusted, but
we are assured that they will be assigned back
seats. We look forward with hope to year Of
harmony, energy, and efficiency in the Repub-

Swill-milk is a DauseOus and painful subject,
but its revival at this moment is necessary and
timely. Years ago public benefactor, Mr..
Hildreth, gave wholesome and natural SEN
sation 10y bringing its attention to this
pestilent evil. lie soon made himself
a victim. The furies of swill-milk burned
lis barn, and the devils who trade
in disease threatened his life. But Mr..
Hildreth won victory at last in procuring a
law against the adulteTation of milk. 1t is
disgraceful, it is wonderful, how long it took
us TO bring to light this horrible nuisance, and
then to pass laws against 1t. But the
wonder and tho shame do not end here.

houses is maintained at wholesale in

Since the pastors return, Mr. johnson
has been carefully watching the move
ments of the minister and his daughter,
and had determined to cowhide the cler-
gyman if he met him in company with
his daughter. But since Mr. Cooks re-
turn he has not been discovered in his
clandestine meetings, although they have
been many.
On Thursdgy evening last he obtained
consderabl money from his friends, and
packed trunk and made readiness for
his journey. On Friday afternoon he met
Miss johnson as she came from school,
and with her books and in her school
dress he led her away. Her family is
plunged in great grief, and her father has
acted like u crazed man. The minister
wrote letter before leaving the city on
Saturday, telling the father of Miss John
son that he would forfeit his life for the
woman he adored" and assuring him that
she should be well cared for This in
famed the family for they believe that
ne has beartlcssly deceived her and sought
her ruin.
Mrs. Cook, the wife of the minister, has
been prostrated by the sad occurrence.
She will return to her mother as soon as
she sufficiently recovers. His family are
left unprovided. Both families are deep
ly afflicted, and seem almost distracted.
There is general condemnation of the
clergyman, but the young lady has been
inveigled away, it is thought, by the fat
tcring speeches of her betrayer

The Revolution. for 1870.

The Revolution is weekly Journal
advocating Suffrage Tor women.
The demands for woman everywhere
to-day, are for wider range of employ
ment, higher wages thorough physical and
mental education, and an equal right be-
fore the law in all those relations which
grow out Of the marriage state. While
We yield to none in the carnestness Of our
advocacy Of all these claims, We make
broader demand for the Enfranchisement
Of Woman, as the only way by which all
her Just rights can be permanently Sc
cured. BY discussing, as we shall, Incl
dentally all leading questions of political
and social Importance, VIC hope to educate
women for an intelligent Judgment upon
public affairs,an for faithful expression
Of that judgment at the polls.
While we would not refuse men an oc-
casional word in our columns. yet AS
masculine IDEAS have ruled the race for
sIx Thousand years, be specially desire
that The Revolution shall be the mouth
piece of women, that they may give the
world the feminine thought in politics,
religion and social life: that ultimately
in the union of both we may find the
truth in all things.

Her name is Miss johnson, and she was
