An Oriental oonrcupondent *>( th* Lon don T< hyraph writes : "On April 25, tho Saltan Abdul Hamid, addr* *** tig the Turkish army. said: ' The fatherland in in danger. It is my dntv to take in mx hand tin l hanuer of the (.Wiping*- and k*> into the midst of mx soldiers to saeri tiee, if necessary, my life for the iu.le pendenee of the empire and tin honor and life of our women and children.' Many of the readers ot the D*7y 1V /> - graph would like, perhaps, to know sotne details of this banner, and of its wonderful influence upon the mind of those who believe in Mohammed and lus •Koran.' It rmght interest them, there fore, if 1 give hero some obsrnatieus ou the Mtltjeok The banner of the Caliphate, to which the sultan alludes h, his spevh, is that which the Turks call "the Heaveuh Stmi.l *rd,' and, in their lauguagc, 'Rairaek.' Its color is green, and they believe it t > have IKHUI the banner of the l'rophet Mohammed, delivered to lout by tie Rngel Gabriel, through the Uiediitni of Ayesha, as iut indubitable token of vic tory over their enemies. This standard was formerly laid up in the treasury i t the saltan of Constant m pie, hut t is no* kept in the mosque at Ktwli, where the new sultans on the day of their *• *rn. tion gin! on the saber of the Caliphate, 111 ease of any serious struggle, a re ligions duty compel* the eultau to give orders to the " Mni'as,' r Molianuutshui clergy, to displav the prophet's standarvl before the people and army, ami pro claim " Al-Johad,' or t ' ;i> holy war, by exhorting the Moslems In- faithful to their religion and defend their kingvhuu. •This is the prophet's lianuer, the aheikh-al-islam x-xchum* ; ' this is the standard of the Caliphate; it is set up before you aud displayed over your heads, oh, true believ - rs, to announce to you that yoiu re'.igii . is threatemsl, your Caliphate in danger, ami your life, wives, children and property e\is>s,-d to IH> the prey of your cniel enemies! Any Moslem, therefore, who refuses to take his arms and follow tins holy Bairack is an infidel, and must, therefore, suffer condemnation. * Such an expedient h.is always produced wonderful effects among tin use who profess the Mohatiuaedau re ligion. All good Moslems are *\m sidertd as being divorced freiu their wives, ip*a fact >, if they refuse to make haste. Use up their arms, follow the banner of the Caliphate, ami fight against the enemy of their religion and kingdom. It is eontirand by trust worthy historians that the standard of the Caliphate has been always kept with extraordinary care ami reverence— that even the Jamasan.es, who w< re ften disrespectful to the sultans, trembled at the sight of this holy ensign. Only one instance of diareepeet to the heavenly standard is related in the Turkish annals. This happened in 1658, when Hassan Paslia. a! the heal of a seditious faction, wage,l warwuh his legitimate sovereign. The sultan gave orders, as usual, to dis play the banner of the Caliphate, with a view to induce Hassan Pasha and his liartioe to obey and respect the head of islam. Hassan Pasha sevms to have been of little faith, inasmuch as when he saw the sacred banner displayed he turned his back to it and trk, In* had come to America in IH3O. For five years he had been in Cheyenne, hut work was hard, wanes low, and money scarce. He was going to the Blaok HilLs t make a " striae,' and, failing in that, to follow his trade—baking. He had been offered a free ;.assure to Deadwood, but was determined to push his " buggy " (as he familiarly called the wheelbarrow; through. He had left Cheyenne the preceding Thursday at noon, and on the Tuesday following, without any assist ance, was nearly at Hat Creek, 160 miles distant! A Ixist Flag Restored. A recent discovery at Strasburg recalls an incident of the liable of FrosehwOlex at the outbreak of the Franco-German war. The colflrs of the Eighth Regiment of French Cuirassiers, which was sup posed to have been lost U[x>n the fiei.l *>f battle, liave been recovereil. A non commissioned officer of the regiment, finding that the battle was lost, tore the colors from the pole aud folded them around his chest. No sooner had he done this than he was mortally wounded by a Bhell; but he had time, when carried to an ambulance, to confine the colors to another soldier, who promised to restore them to the regiment. Tho latter failed to fulfill his promise, and not under standing the value of the colors, he *<>l*l the red ami blue strips of the flag at Strasburg, having in the meanwhile torn off the white strip to make him-edf a neck tie. It liapjiened that nn inhabi tant of Strasburg, who is in the hubit of purchasing curiosities, heard of tin matter, ami lie at once obtain-*! posses sion of the two strips sold, which he has rejoined, and upon which are embroider ed in gold letters, " The Emperor Najse leon 111, to the Eighth Regiment of Cuirassiers," and upon the reverse side, " Eekmuhl—Wagrain—La Moakowu— Hanau !" The collector, wheu he ascer tained to whom the colors belonged, lost no time in forwarding them to the colonel of the regiment which had lost them. New York's Tiade in Alligator Skins. New York handles about five thousand alligator skins per annum. Tlio business is entirely in the hands of a single firm, who employ men to pursue the reptile in the bayous of the Misrissippi river, and the work is usually done at night by the aid of lanterns, tho rifles used being aimed straight at the creature's eyes. If the alligators are too old or too young, the ammunition used on thenxis only thrown away, 1 or in such cases the skin is either too horny or too small. A good size is eight or nine feet, counting nothing beyond the thick part of the tail. Florida is a great place for alligators, but skins from that direction are bad'y mangled, indicating strong objections by the animal against parting with his natural integument. The market price for finished skins in New York is thirty-six to forty-eight dollars per dozen; extra, something higher ; raw, according to condition. FEMALE EDI-CATION.—Keep as much as possible in the grand and common road of life ; patent educations or habits seldom succeed. Depend upon it, men set more value on the cultivated minds than on the accomplishments of women, which they are rarely able to appreciate. It is a couxmon error, but it is an error, that literature unfits women for the every day business of life. It is not so with men. You see those of the most culti vated minds constantly devoting their time and attention to the most homely objects. Literature gives women a real aud proper weight in society, but they must use it with discretion. Al l. AIMM'T I.IOX TAMIMJ. VVhnl >.-nrr-l Vclrrn ni ihr ttlnr*> TnNI K-p*rlcr.

" Last vear, on Decoration day, while 1 wa- with Howe's fc Cushiog's circus, I went with n den of lions in the proces sion in New York. Old Parker, the famous animal who died in Central Park sometime ago, and who left a record of four men killed, waa in the den. There was a great crowd iu the street, and as we xvere turning the comer of Sixteenth street and Fourth avenue some boys stirred up the lioneascs, and they began to figh*. I tr;-d to stop them, and ns- 1 the whip vigorously. Canada, an im mense lion tvlio waa beliind me, sprang upon my back ami fastened his teeth in my waist. Then he suddenly let go his hold and crouched in his corner. I was bleeding and vexed, and I ordered the driver to get out of the procession and go baek to tie! show. On the way I continually tlireatened Canada, but did nothing until we were in the tent. Aft'-r my wounds liad le* n dressed I returned to tL - den, and hud Canada tied down. The! his claws were cut. He raved and tossed furiously, and we gave him a pied' of pine bark to chew. H- snapped it into splinters. When he was untied two men at each end of the lions watched the tussle xxith deep inter est, Slid craved the meat, but 1 kept 1 them at buy. We always fmsl them law lus!.
