Tbere are many things about the theory Ml preetlee of prevailing religion la Mt which are, a mild term, queer. The Per-tiMJ are Sheeltes, whfls tU Turk and mint of the ether 140,000.000 of Mohammedan are annul me.

Between theee twe principal aeeto of latem there fierce contention, implacable hatred, end unquenchable contempt each for lbs thervery much ae Catholics and Protest-tots need la feel toward each other 300 rears ego. The Sheeite considers the BaanUe nAdu flmpwe) tad hi touch MM, (denting,) put ae if be had eeme iu contact wtth aa nnelean thing or animal, such a nog and the feeling to reciprocated or the Buaalte. They hate each other wtth a cordial ad enduring hatred, and while each Bunnite considers himself aa the ealt of the earth, he deem the Ebeeite no better titan the dost at hU feet and vice versa. Vow It might 1e snjtposed that there are many and radical rarlaoeee In the dogma and creed of their faith. But such eot the truth.

The real difference In their belief Terr alight One of the essential proofs that lamps a Moslem as belonging to the eaate tl Vert dt Vers," or, to be more exact, to the Bonn! or dominant sect. Is how he performs his ablutions. The Sunnite tDl begin at his elbow, and from there, gradually working down, will rob the last rub at Ins tips of his fingers. This, be tar. In strict accordance with Mohammed's leeching and practice.

The Bheelte, on the other bead, will proceed In an Inverse manner In ae-oooipiiahlna- the task, and be thus, of course, literally gives himself ewny" In the operation. A few of theee grave distinctions, inolndlng precepts about food and drink, are really svery-Uing of any account oa which the two leading sets ef Islam differ, ret they have been enough s( a rocs oa which to build them op. The original point of dlrergenee, of course, was the soeoessorshlp to the caliphate, disputed between All and Abu-Bear, decided by the majority of those earljvArab believers against Mohammed's nephew and la favor of wise, old Aho-Aekr. Then cams the slaughter of the la-aoneoU at Kerbelah In which fiaasea and Hussein, the sons and heirs of All. perished.

Now, the Persians were at that time still pagans and followers of Zerdusht (Zoroaster) ana had nothing at all to do with tola internal strife of the Arabs and didn't ears a button about either fa Susan or Hussein, and nut her these two roan fellows were In reality entitled to become the successors of Mohammed or not was a matter of utter Indifference to them. Vt sddly Is our human nature constructed that these same unbelievers afterward, when they Aid adopt Islam and forsook their ancient and much purer and better belief, were not satisfied with what they got but wanted to out-Herod Herod, and, going backward, modify In their minds the hierarchical line of rulers whose creed they had Just adopted at the point of the sword. Thus they gradually and by dint of Incessant teaching and reiteration became firmly convinced that All reailr onght to have been the Oellph, and that therefore, all those who followed the usurpers Abu-Bekr, Osman, and Omar, were likewise Intruders and bogus vicars of God. They've stuck to this belief, which did them no good either spiritually or materially through thick and thin, and for a number of centuries, giving and taking many hard blows In maintaining it, and laying down their lives under cruel tortures by the thousand and thousand for Itand there they are to-day, still comparatively happy in this belief and cer-talnly Just aa rooted in It as ever- That, then, was the original point ef divergence, and it is an odd fact that the Persians who bad no earthly concern in the matter should stand up with such self -sacrificing persistence for the possible rights of a man who never did anything for them, who belonged to a different nation and religion, and who lived and died a long while before the time when they chose to take np his supposed rights. The true explanation of this phenomenon, one might soy, in, however, I think, quite simple.

Islam was fort down the Persian's throat; be swallowed it after a bitter and hard struggle, under protest. Under these etrvusastanoea. therefore, 1 think it was quite natural that even after accepting sis conqueror's faith, he should still cherish an aversion for It and should try to modify It With the Oriental's peculiar turn of mind. mess mooincauona ao not refer so much to mind as to form, and hence the Persian's advocacy of All's heirship and of all manner of small external differences. The Bheeites are tea called toe Protestants among the Mohammedans, but If a oomparlHon was ever odious It was In that Instance.

The Christian Protestants stood np for liberty of thought and Investigation, as well as for divesting- forms of worship from all not la strict eonaonaooe with Biblical teachings. Mow take the Bheeites. They have, it is true, discarded some of the Bunnite traditions; bat they have added largely to the religious legendary lore and further complicated the already sufficiently burdensome ritual. Like the Protestants of Europe they deny deny the righteous Oaliphate of Abu-Bekr, Omar, and Osman deny the chastity of Ayeslin, Mohammed's favorite wife, and a good many other things but they do not aiUrm anything. Theirs is not a positive belief, a far aa It goes, but a negative one.

The hatred of the One sect for the other Is as unabated and as fierce to-day aa It ever was. One reason, and the chief one. for the furious ani-atosity of the Turcoman, the Koord, the Afghan and the Beloochee against the Persian Is religious difference, ther being Bannltee. When the Turcoman prepares tor another raid into Persian territory, be never fails to push his lanes into the ground beside his soul (tent) and to proclaim In a loud voice that he is ready to go to war1 against the Infidels, having primarily in his secret thoughts, however, an eye to the main plunder, much as he loves It, Is not so dear to his heart as the cutting of Infidel Persian throats, for like reasons tbe ether tribes la the border lands ef Persia despise as maoh as the detest the Persians. a professing 8heetto believes above all in the form his prayers with promptness and dispatch, kneeling en his prayer rug camel fashion, the (aoe turned -In the direction of Mecca, bumping his forehead against the ground at regular Intervals, and mumbling the requisite phrases, whose meaning even la.

When praying the heel is will divest himself of all wraps and of every kind of ornament and Jewelry, so as to ap- pear In humble garb before Allah. It Is not In cumbent on any Blieeite to pray In a moeqave, and, aa a matter of fact, Persian mosques are not so well attended aa a rule, nor are they as numerous, as are those in Turkey. Almsgiving Is still as much la vogue among Bheeites as In the days of rote, although charity to not now bestowed aa lavishly aa of old.

Pilgrimage Is another of their religions duties still faithfully performed.

These pilgrimages niaret) are made to Mooes aeroeia, (near ug-oad.) koum. Meshed, and Bhah Abdul Axlm. Only those pilgrims who have made the far and ftetigeroua journey to Mecca are properly styled badjee. But by courtesy and as a. term of flattery the hadjee Is given to those fee who hare merely prayed at the shrines ef Inferior sanctity.

The Journey to Meeca takes six months to perform, and that it Is fraught with eonaldera-bis danger to life and Umb Is proved by the fact that out of the S.OOO who Started on the trip eme few years ago leas than 8,000 returned, the rest having been made away with by pestilence, dysentery, robbers, hunger, thirst, and fatigue on the road.

It ought alas to be mentioned that most educated Moslems la Persia are believers for revenue only. Thev find it to their ad vantage to simulate belief In aoctnnss which they have long slnceoutgrowa. Kobody will become better aware of this fact than tbe European.

In conversation with a Ferenghi unbeliever the educated Moslem will readllv admit his unbelief and Jeer at tbe bigotry of the ignorant masses, while, when In the street be will nreet his nelrhbor with the saJamnt, (Praise Ood and the Prophet.) In curious contrast with this state of affairs to the undoubted bigotry of the Bheeite aw when token as a whole, and the religious frenzy Into which they can work themselves on the slightest pretext Yet this to not so much a proof of their unwavering faith aa of the soundness of the saying that orthodoxy is my doxy and heterodoxy the other man's doxy. Interference with old established customs based on religion teaching is bitterly resented, whertma tnm twmtioi 3. yerenoes are made llrht of SO ions' aa nA vis made to nut them Into pracUoe. The Xohar- iciu, iiiiuuiu oevotea to tne Dewalllng of the ssd death of Hassan and HnauiTn i ariiii di moaning and sighing and beating of breasts ana cianung ef chains, is leas an evidence of vigorous religious belief than of the need of the Oriental nature to be stirred nn at intj-ria expend its energies, at other times creeplnr alons; at a sluggish pace In volcanic action.

There are, of course, fanatics in Persia as well as elsewhere, and they will, by fasting, unusual exertion, and noise, gradually brace their flag- mrmi up to suon a pitcn as to become abeo-utelr dangerous to others less aealous but more sensible than they. Mankind, great and small, does like noise and excitement, and tha vattiin of chains and beating of drams and similar ex-traraganoes arc due more to that Innate love of uproar toan to musnoua ierver. The moharrem Is still mmmrmli-r ii ad throughout Persia. Everybody goes about the streets clad in black, and bands of specially pious folks raise an almost continual din night and day. Many of these bare their breasta and heads to the fierce glare of the sun or the icy breath of tbe wind, (for aa the Persians still have lunar months the moharrem as well as the other months fall every year at a different time, changing about from midsummer to midwinter In the course of timek howl discordant wails of AJ i ossein, ai Hassan!" and behave themselves generally like lunatics or members of the salvation Army.

The great features of this month are the theatxteal representations of the sufferings uf these two early martyra. Hnasefn and Hassan. and the noirular eom- memoretlons of their alanghter, such as endless readings and recitations and the tales of the professional a ton- tellers and mnllaha kept up constantly. These passion plays are calico Huseelnia. and are performed in almost svery town of any size In Persia.

There Is generally a building with a stage and an amphitheatre, built as a rule with the money left by special bequests, devoted to the purpose of theee representations. The largest of their kind may be found In Teheran, Shires, Kermanshah, Tabrle, Ispahan, and Meshed. The one in Teheran was erected by tbe present Bhah and adjoins his palace. It to not by any means a beautiful or imposing structure, but holds a good many people, and may, by means of a sail-clotb roof, many rugs and ourtalna, and other devices, temporarily be transformed into a serviceable place. Very much In tbe style of the Passion Play at Oberammergau, ths performance lasts a number of days, and Introduces every person of more or less prominence who played a part in the actual tragedy and what preceded and followed It 1,200 years ago.

Judged from an artlstlo and literary standpoint these performances are quite The shifts made by the players to supply lacking scenery and decorations were not even equaled in Shakespeare's days, and a roaring lion or a slender palm tree of the species used on these occasions are anything but terror-lnr piring or shade-vouchsafing. The desert near Kerbelah where the two young grandnephews of Mohammed were finally dispatched Is represented very much in the same fashion as Bottom, the great dramatic manager In uuuauiuoitu- AiEuti jrsmm, woma nave arrangea it. nut mere is, ror ail that some genuine pathos and some Interest to this passion play, ana It moves the large audiences, composed of men, veiled women, and children, who know of no better perform an oea nor any where the illusion is kept np better, quite frequently to an extraordinary pitch. One may see the sea of human faces, ail turned toward the stage, swaying to and fro in the strong wind of passion, pity, wrath, or sympathy, and the whole thing is a veritable godsend to these people, lifting them from their unworthy, narrow, mean life Into a higher sphere for at least a few days every year. Tbe strict observers of Moslem sw, however, despise these representations, which they consider to be against the spirit and teaching of Islam.

They will countenance nothing but readings and recitations, and but few mollahs (priests) will therefore attend the performances. Great Importance, on the other hand, la attached by the rigid believers to dreams and visions, (shab dlden,) which they believe to be Divine Inspirations fraught with deep meaning. As the Persians make their principal meal in the evening, and generally eat a great deal at that time, such dreams are of frequent occurrence, and men who are the heaviest feeders or who are troubled with indigestion are generally the ones held In the highest esteem as visionaries. Beligious preaching does not amount to much, as tbe mollahs themselves rarely get beyond ths slavish observance of what has been taught them, and hardly ever have digested the slender amount of knowledge uf the Koran and the traditions and legends they possess. There are manr liberal-minded Persians, though, and even a great manr' freethinkers and agnostics among them, and these though hardly ever proteasing their unbelief openly have no scruple against discussing religious topics with persons from whom they do not tear treachery.

The stock of Persian religious legends to a much larger and varied one than that of the Turks, ind a good deal of It dates from their pagan ays, mixed up with Mohammedan later teachings, and transformed Into a senseless Jumble. A few of these legends. It to true, are poetically very fine and manr contain a grain of sense. The 6 on nl tee look upon these legends (ha bis) as another evidence of Sheeite heresy, but ther hsve for the most part very little to an with re ligion proper. The Bheeites aarve accorded All such a high place in their worship that he ranks side by side With Mohammed, and but one step below Allah himself.

They call upon him tor aid and guidance more than upon tbe founder. In "their religion and Is their daily conversation. In their diseusalona. writings, and poetry, the mention of All recurs constantly. The axolamatton Tab All to aa common with tbem aa By Ksh with a Hoosier Granger.

Tbe Koran ows no third commandment, and tbe names of the deity and of his principal co-workers, and lieutenants, Mohammed and All, are therefore constantly in the Sheeite'a mouth, generally Invoked separately, together with the description of the particular prerogative accorded to each member of this Moslem trinity. Thus the camel driver in Administering suocessfve whacks with a big club to his patient brutea, the fisherman la hauling In his nets, the boatman la pulling a steady stroke, the mason In toying sun-dried bricks upon each other all repeat endlessly the refrain, Tan. Allah I Tan, Mohammed I Yah, All with an awfulpun on tbe last syllable and long-drawn yah (oh 1) Where tbere are men working together they will ssy this In abortus in ben of the barcarole of the Venetian gondolier the boatman on the Lake of EnseU will screech at the top of his vole his Yah, All 1" till the welkin rings again. The Kneel te theology, It is true, has not accorded All any definite place, and their commentators vary greatly in supplying tnls detest, according to their idiosyncrasies and Ideas. But the vast majority of the Persians look upon All as the vicar of Allah, and of equal might and Influence with the prophet himself, while a goodly number of tbem go even further and believe All to have beam tbe rncamatioa of the Godhead Itself.

The veneration felt for All to not by any means on tbe wane: quite the contrary, ft seem on tbe increase. Of lass the Bhah has created a new rellsnoas holiday eou-memorating the birth of All and this to quite generally kept At this occasion, aa well as on the birthday of ths prophet mar be observed a curious ceremony, styled tne King at Commemoration. The one I attendee: was held at the noose of a sheik and doctor of dlvlnltr. A circle was formed of about 80 men holding hands, the sheik In the centra. Outside ths ring were Instrumental performers.

There were 18 Immense tambourines, about or A feet In diameter, 8 smaller ones. pairs of cymbals, and a big drum. Tbe hwm struck up a asrw and measured rhythm In double mas sura.

He wrote a species of creed Arable, this being in the principal points dogma in accordance with Moham-ned's doctrines, but differing from him simplifying the code of ceremonies and the ritual and recommending eomnianity of prop--rty, wives and daughters included! He for-mde wine, but allowed hasheesh instead. Te the latter permission to probably due the rapid apread ef this sect Like most successful religions. It met with fierce persecution. Bab-rddln himself waa shot dead at the command of nusr-ea-lJeea Bhah at Tab til, in 1830. but the news of his martyrdom was generally disbelieved among bis follower, of whom many even (to-dsy think him living.

The strict order of the (Bhah to detect and give up all Baabites. who were then killed, waa quite extensively obeyed. To these cruelties was due the attempt of two fanatical Baabltes la 1653 to assassinate the Bhah. Their attempt miscarried, and they were put to death after horrible tortures. Thousands of Baabltes who had thus far escaped the execu tioner, wTtnm tne sueceeaing two or tnree yean were beheaded, walled np alive, soldered down In hollow columns, bio am treat the mouths of cannon, or starved to death.

Still, there are to-day quite a large number of Baabltes In Persia, especially in the neighborhood of Kerbelah, (which Is since time immemorial a haven of refuge for the persecuted on ac count of its supposed sanctity and Its aylura privileges,) Manshur, and Kermaa. Ther rec ti ea the peculiar precept of Baablam Under cover, ana nave to hide their light under a bushel, generally speaking, but executions of these occur out rareiy now, ana tneir number is said to be on tbe increase, even in the Immediate uragt or tbe reigning Bhah, whose fear of this sect had greatly abated within the past 80 years.

Most Americana that now go to London, even for a brief stay, hasten into lodgings." Lodrfngi are furnished rooms, In which tbe tenant to served with meals which the landlady prepares, charging taarely for the material eonrameu. It Is plain that when one lives in this way everything depend on the honesty of the landlady, on her desire" to please.

and en the profidleney and industry of her cook, and hence am unable to say what proportion ef people that resort, to this mode ef living are satisfied with Its results. For my part I have always found it more agreeable than hotel life, ana far less eosv ly. Occasionally have come across acme odd expertenoes. This Summer I tenanted, with some friends, a cheery first floor tn ana of the streets running from the Strand to tbe Thames Embankment The rent waa low and the place wall kept, the oooklng waa plain, bat. fairly good, and the provisions save in respect of one article wots applied without stint and hot overcharged in tbe weekly MIL But one thing we eouM not get-bread.

True it to that it waa not mentioned in the account but aa the landlady was given to understand, from the first, that everything gotten waa to be of the beat, and that price was ne object, there really appeared to be no reason why we should have all the luxuries of the season and be deprived of an every-day necessary. For two loag weeks we were fed upon scraps of bread which tor quality and slse would have added new horror to confinement In a dark cell, and when the Channel waa crossed and the train stopped at Amiens tbere was a rush tor the appetising French bread at the lunch counter that robbed half the plates of their superincumbent golden rolls. I should like to raise my voice once more in behalf of the native tradesman, notwithstanding his tendency to axeesalve charges. Many of my tody friends aver that dresses and bonnets are aa well made tn Kew-Tork as in Paris and scarcely more expenstVe. and I am not at all surprised at their admission of tne fact On the other hand.

I am absolutely certain that men's clothes, although a bit more costly, are twice as skillfully cut and put together in the United Btoteahaa abroad. If there is any advantage derived from purchasing ladles gowns and eAa an latin Europe, and especially tn the French metropolis. It to because the transatlantic modiste gives a certain character to her achievements. But there to no room for eocaef in male attire, whiohmust con form to certain patterns that leave the tailor4 fancy ne room for play. The average tailor abroad has a line of goods far superior to that of hto fellow-tradesman here, but all first-rate houses In America have at least as large a selection of sloths as eaa be shown tha customer away from home.

And the work done abroad does not compare la cut sit or finish with even tbe passable work performed in the United Stakes. I am inclined to make an exception in favor ef French dress suite, tf yon eaa get a well made Parisian evening drees suit- and this can be acoompttohed without much troubto yea win have an erode that cannot weO be excelled. Paris to a vary eleaa city aa to the condition of her streets. It to too clean, almost tot the con tinual use of the hydrant and broom to keep everything fresh and free from dnat makes more mud than to agreeable to ladles with trail ing skirts, and the critical Parisian has every right to find fault with the comparatively filthy condition of Kew-Tork. Tot then to one thing that cannot be overlooked that at certain seasons of the year, and at certain hours of the day, even the heat eelgtlborheod ef Paris are Hi-smelling to a degree never attained by the courtyard ef a Cherry-street tenement house.

In the tainted atmosphere hanging ovsr twe or three points em every block of tbe principal boulevards, the stench of chloride ef Ins, and the not Infrequent whiff of garlic wafted toward the stroUsr by a blonse-wcerlng representative of tha workinf classes, the French capital possesses a sort ef trioolored perfume which ieavas the fabtod odor ef Co logne far behind it The Louvre and the Boa Karehesm marvelous shops, so marvelous that I do not wonder that foreigners make a bee Una for one er the other on their arrival, and being subsequently asked by art-loving friends whether they have visited the maaeasa whence the first earned tahltohmeni takes Its name, anewer la the aega-tlvs and observa that thsy found all they wanted at the latter.

At the beginning ot the present century, for instance, most of the heroes ef peace end war were young.
