While the women of this country are
seriously considering the question whether
or not they are the slaves of tyrant man,
they have evidently not grasped the start
ling fact that at least half 4 million of
them are heathens. This unwsleome an
nouncsment is due to Rev. Sheldon Jack
son, a DSnYer minister, whose travels
have been somewhat extensive, and whose
opportunities for obtaining information
concerning the degradation Of woman in
America have very clearly been improved.
His statistics bear the impress of relia-
hility, and seem to suggest wider field
for the operations of philanthropic ladies
than any that has lately been presented,
leaving out of the account all the dspraved
women of civilization, DIR. jackson esti-
mates that the starry folds Of the American
flag float over five hundred thousand fe-
males who are absolutely hsathsn. First
among these are the women of Arizona,
who are descendants, of the once powerful
Aztecs, and who still worship the sun
with all the solsmnlty that characterized
the dsVotions of that wonderful people.
Next come the native women OF New
Mexico, who are but slightly removed
from positive paganism, and whose re-
igion seems chiefly to consist in person
al laceration and torture. The two
thousand females of Alaska are referred
to as the most dspraVed of mortals.
They worship any article whose origin
or construction is beyond their compre-
hension; they sell their offspring for
mere pittancs; they speedily put an end
to their dsformSd children, and they
throw their aged and inirm into the sea
without any ceremony whatever. Here
is a chance for the missionary to enter
in and distinguish himself on American
soil and under Governmental protection.
In his classification of heathen women
DR.. Jackson has included the female
population of Mormondom, and although
his views in this respect will meet op-
position it must be confessed that he
produces some forcible illustrations of
the degradation to which many Of these
women have been reduced. He men
tions a case that came under his person
al observation of Mormon elder, who
was the proud possessor of fourteen
wives, one an American lady, one an
English, one q German, one a NorEs-
gian, one an Irish, and one a negress,
the nationality Of the others not having
bSsn aScsrtainOd. As the Elders house
consisted of but two rooms, he inTaria-
bly, occupied it with his latest and most
favored wife, forcing the others to seek
lodgings in stables and wagons as best
they could.
These facts, with others just as stern
and startling, DIR. jackson is presenting
to the people in the hope that they will
awaken the Christian ladies Of this eoun-
try to a sense of the degradation which
is to be found within our borders, and
arouse them to some action towards its
relief.

New England Connections.

The Erie Railway Co. has been for
some time preparing the way for a
New England connection, with its
line, via the Hoosac tunnell, and they
have been seconded in this move by
the Delaware and Hudson Co., the
Fitchburg Railroad of Massachu-
setts, and an association of capitalists
of Boston, who are engaged in build
ing new link between Mechanics
vile, on the Hudson, and North
Adams, at the western end of the tun-
nell, which was necessary to unite
the three interests named. Such a
connection, of course, came in con-
flict with the interests of the New
York Central, and aroused its oppo-
sition. In sffecting this route, the
new Boston Company proposed to
use line given up by the Troy and
