A Universal Summons?It* Origin?An Emblem of Extermination. Since the commencement of the war between Russia and Turkey, the world has several times been startled by the announcement that the " Flag of the I TTrno oViAiif fr> V*a nnfnrla/1 in i | the streets of Stamboul. Such an event, 1 if it should happen (which may heaven j avert), would proclaim a crusade in j which all true Mussulmans would be bound to take an active part, and to j fight against Christianity in every part J of the world. They may be in India, j Arabia, Egypt, or wherever else their | | scattered race has found a home; the j i raising of the green standard is a call | i which none may disobey without, as the i ; Koran lays it down, nacrificing all his j j hopes of paradise. This fearful appeal to all the worst ; passions of the Eastern races hangs like a j menace over the Mohammedan world; and ! if the word was once uttered and the dreadj ed flag unfurled, there is no telling to what i sanguinary excesses it might lead an en! thusiastic and half-savage people. It I may be of interest to our readers if, j under these circumstances, we endeavor j I to make them acquainted with the origin , ! and history of a banner which has not: j seen the light of day since the Empress J Catharine of Russia attempted to rein state Chistianity in the City of the Sultans, and which once unfurled would set a whole world ablaze. There have been many flags or signals 1 j used by various nations at different j ! crises in their history to incite the peo- j | pie to battle on behalf of religions, dy-; nasties and ideas ; but none has attained ! i to the fearful notoriety which appertains i , to the terrible Flag of the Prophet; { which is really a banner of blood, for it i dispels the idea of mercy from the minds j and hearts of its followers, and gives no \ 1 quarter to man, woman or child. In France the " oriflamme " or golden j j sun upon a field of crimson signified j j "no quarter !" but this celebrated Flag , ; of the Prophet means infinitely more i {than this. It is a summons to an anti- j I Christian crusade, a challenge of every j believer in the Prophet to arms ; a war- ; signal, in fact, which, like the Fiery , Cross of Scotland, would flash its dread ! command through the domain of Islam. ' . The prophet himself predicted that' ' one day, when his followers should num- ! j ber 100,000,000?which they do now, i I with 20,000,000 more added to it?his , i flag should fly against the advancing ; I power of the* northern races ; and the ; i Koran or Mohammedan Bible says tbat j i when its silken folds are flung forth ; j "the earth will shake, the mountains: I melt into dust, the seas blaze up in fire, j | and the children's hair grow white with ; anguish." This language is of course i metaphorical ; but it is easy to conceive, ! by the light of very recent history, that j some such catastrophe might take place, as the displaying of this terrible symbol would raise a frenzy of fanaticism in the breasts of the Mohammedan race all over the globe. The origin of the insignia is a curious one. Mohammed gazing out upon a ! vast prospect of field, said : " Nature is . green, and green shall be my emblem, i for it is everlasting and universal." In course of time, however, it lost thatj innocent significance; and amid his I visions the great dreamer saw the Green j Flag floating as a sign that all true be- i lievers should take up their arms, and j march against the infidel ; in fact, the ! green turban was the 6-acred head-dress of the pilgrim or perfected Islamite who ; had gone to Mecca ; and hence the sane- ; uty 01 tnis iormiuaDie scanaara. When once unfurled, it summons all Islam by an adjuration from the Koran that the sword is the solitary emblem and instrument of faith, independence and patriotism ; that armies, not priests, make converts ; and that sharpened steel is the " true key to heaven." Upon that fearful ensign are inserted the words which are supposed to have been written at Mecca itself?namely: "All who draw it (the Bword) will be rewarded with temporal advantages; every drop shed of their blood, every peril and hardship endured by them, will be registered on high as more meritorious than either fasting or praying. If they fall in battle, their sins will be at once blotted out, and they will be transported to paradise. But for the first heaven are reserved those of the faithful who die within sight of the Green Flag of the Prophet." Then follow the terrible and all-significant words, the fearful war-cry against God and man : "Then may no man give I or expect mercv !" This is the outburst of barbarism with which the world is threatened in this year of grace 1877; and the reader cannot do otherwise than mark the cunning nature of the portentous words inscribed on the prophet's banner. What would not most men do, civilized or savage, for "temporal advantages?" While to : the Eastern people faBting and praying J are looked upon as of so meritorious a ; nature, that to find something elso j which, in the eyes of Allah, would be : deemed of greater value still, would be ] a desideratum which none would fail to j grasp, by any means whatever, if it came within their reach. But Mohammed's wonderful knowledge of human nature, and more especially of Eastern human nature, is shown in his picture of paradise as prepared for the faithful who fall in battle ; while his declaration that the highest lieaven in this so-called paradise will be reserved for those who I die within sight of the Green Flag, is a ! masterpiece of policy unequaled in the j annals of mankind. The standard itself is not, a very hand- j some ene, and is surpassed both in value and appearance by many of the banners i which belong to the varions benefit so-! cieties and other mutual associations of men in this country. It is of green silk, i with a large crescent on the top of the ! staff, from which is suspended a long ( plume of horse-hair (said to have been ! the tail of the Prophet's favorite Arab | steed), while the brood foldB of the flag j exhibit the orescent and the quotations from the Koran already mentioned. The Flag of the Prophet is kept in the j mosque of St. Sophia at Constantinople, ( and is in the custody of the "Shik-ul-1 Islam, or Mahommechm chief - eseript I where all well-wishers of humanity may j sincerely trust it will ever remain. ? j Chambers's Journal. Sheep Browsing above the floods. Probably the largest and highest rock | in the known world is the South Dome \ of Yosemite. Standing at the fork of the upper valley, it rears itself, a solid i rocky reef, 6,000 feet above the ground. A more powerful hand than that of a Titan has cut away the eastern half, leaving a sheer precipice over a mile in height. No man ever trod the top of j thiB dome until" last year. Former visi- j tors gazed in wonder at the spikes driven I into the rock by hardy spirits, who had i repeatedly endeavored to scale i<|. The \ nhrndn of rntifl dnno'lino- in the \nilil told I the story of their failure. Last year, ' however, after thousands of dollars "were spent, several persons found their way to the top of the dome, and this Bummer two sheep were discovered browsing on the hitherto inaccessible peak. Mrs. A. J. Murphy, wife of a late hotel proprietor in the valley, writes to a lady in NewYork as follows: John Anderson iB building stairs up to the top of the South Dome. You can , go up now by holding on to a rope, but it is quite a tiresome trip A few ladies 1 in the valley have made the ascent, and I am sorry I did not attempt it But I 1 am one of the few who have seen the sun rise on the top of Cloud's Rest, and 1 its glory will never fade from my memory. Strange to say, two sheep found their way to the top of the South Dome this Bummer, a dam and her lamb. How 1 they ever got there is more than any one ? can tell. ' They found bunch grass and k shoots to eat, but no water?only the dew that fell on the dome at night. Anderson was going to oarry them up J some water when I left. > ? > There are those indeed, whom the* J world calls vain, who are not so. There ; is a desire in some men to have their | real characters' known, and therefore they speak for themselves, and with > more than with perfect justioe.

About twelve o'clock : ; in the night the water gradually rose into the streets of the lower part of the [ oity. At two o'ciock A. H. ic -was up 10 the second stories of many houses, and I was pouring into Main street, the prin- j cipal thoroughfare of Richmond. Even with every vehicle that could be engaged, and an immense force of hands, goods could not be removed fast enough, and the midnight workers found themselves surrounded by the j surging and billowy mass of water, and they were at lost forced to leave the endangered property, in order to save themselves. ( In Rockets, whioh is nearer to the !, river thaa any other portion of the city, j. acres of Btreets, thickly built, were sur- i ( rounded, and many of the houses com- j nlp.tfllv buried beneath the water. No : warning could have prepared the inhab- | itants for a flood so terrible in its effects I ] and so swift in its desolation. Steadily, |. stealthily, swiftly the seething tide rushed j; through the city into the darkened ; ( houses, giving no warning, save when it i j orashed in windows, and then by its in- i; creasing volume, broke down the flimsy j J barriers of dc*>rs like reed stems in the j' path of a cyclone. Like gnomes and i dark water spirits, struggling men and j, shrieking women were seen moving on j housetops, while the steady fall of the I i oars from the succoring boats fell upon i the midnight air. Boats enough could j i not be gotten together to do what was j. necessary. Sturdy fathers could be seen !' moving cautiously through the water, : J bearing their little ones on their shoul- ! ( dera ; people crawled to their third i floors, and as thev saw the water climb- j J ing upward called out for boats to take i ] them off. Horses and wagons, which i ] were first in demand, were now set aside { for skiffs and barges. At one o'clock the -j moon rose. Its liprht, feeble though it was, came providentially. The cries for [1 lamps and candles were heard now. j. Boats plowed the Btreets weighted down ': with the workingman's most precious j : cargo, his wife and little ones. As they j were safely landed at the foot of the j hills the cry of mothers calling to their i little ones to keep together was heard, j! and, casting one lingering sad look on I: the watery waves where once were happy i1 homes, they moved off to give standing j' ground for other boatloads of * the j' homeless. The men proved faithful and | worked with a will. Then the river rose ,! higher and higher, and the roar became like Niagara in its fury. Great trunks of trees, portions of j j bridges and masses of timber swept i ] down the stream and tore up such shanties and buildings as stood in their path, j Nothing stayed the progress of the destructive flood. A single timber fell ' from a bridge a mile up the stream. It: 1 gathered strength and fury as it went 1! on and tore up a slnall outhouse on the : j river bank, and clinging close to this, ; gathered timbers as it moved, when the I! whole mass was hurled against the roofs ] of the houses in its track. It went on , down the stream, gathering strength and ' being on the swift current a very animate :! engine of terror and annihilation. Ah it jJ tore down the James River, crashing j j everything before it, this confused mass ^ of timbers looked in the ghostly light of L the moon like a living monster, flinging '1 huge arms in fierce contortions where j' the river current was not broken. Such j' was thp sight in Rockets. ' In the vicinity of the gas works, on Main street, between Fifteenth and 1 Seventeenth streets, the appearance of 1 the water was more insidious and came ! in more slowly. Here there was no cur rent, and the water backed into the city j by way of Shocker Creek. At ten o'clock j ] it was over the door in the old market, j and covered Main, Cary and Franklin ! j streets for a distance of three squares, j ' The headquarters of the Chief of; ] Police and the First police station house ; were blocked up, the water rising rapid- !' ly until it was above the first-story, so j1 the policemen had to climb from the i second-story windows into the flatboats { in the street. A line of ferryboats was qaickly es-1 tablished to enable communication between the upper and lower sections of the city. The very oentre of the business portion of lower Richmond was ; under water at ten o'clock. The business signs of the wholesale and retail houses floated, and the only mode of egress was from second story windows, 1 while at half-past two o'clock to day the ; New York steamboat sheds were under ; water and it was ever the eaves. The i second floor of the company's office could j only be ^seen, while the currents swept! through'the building and over the office j counters. j At five o'cock the New York steamer I Isaao Bell of the Old Dominion line, j which waB anchored near by the roof of , the shed, broke loose from her moorings . and was hurled broadside down the cur- ' rent right over toward the water covered j houses in Rockets. At one -moment it j looked as though she would tear her !1 rmth thrnncli Mnin street and sweet) 11 down the houses whose roofs held their ,' trembling owners; at another, as the '' current laden with trees and timber i J struck her, she looked as though she ;1 would careen and fall on her side. She ' j danced on the water like a cork and i' looked from the streets she was nearly .1 as large as the Great Eastern, for the 1 pe#ple were below the level of her hull. :! The sight of a large steamboat bearing j1 down toward the narrow streets was ,( terror inspiring, but her officers sue- 11 ceeded in finding an anchorage down the '1 river, near Youngling's James River jj Brewery, and guided her from the streets , in time to save them and her from ! 1 damage. The whole length of Richmond front- j ing on the river, from the pump house j' to the Chesapeake and Ohio wharves, ,: and streets running thereon, were under 1 the flood, a distance in all of three or : four miles. On the banks of the river 1 in every direction was piled furniture 1 and merchandise in one heterogeneous mass. Steam tugs could be seen plying j the streets tugging small boats laden ; with household goods. In all this pic- j1 ture of ruin and misery wreckers were at j work with their hooked poles drawing j the articles of timber that were flying by. j At lialf-pust one p. m. the first Bpan of j Mayo's Bridge gave way with a thunder- f ing sound, and ten minutes later the ; second came down into the flood with a ! cvash that could be heard for miles. j ^ oon after five Bpans on the Manchester i side fell and were Bwept off by the cur- j rent. This bridge was rebuilt after the ' flood of 1870 at a cost of $80,000. About two o'clook in the morning tho , trestle work connecting Manchester with the main bridee of Belle Isle was wash ed away, breaking up all communication between these two plaoes. On the lower part of the island all the houses were flooded to 1 ae econd story. How He Was Suited. Says the Lewiston Me., Journal: A i j young man of meek appearanco called at a clothing store on Lisbon street, and j said: " I would like a pair of pantaloons." The trousers were produced, and the meek customer pulled off his boots and got into the biturcated anparel. He ! seemed pleased. "I would like to try on p. vest." Likewise a well-fitting vest | pleased the meek youth. "Had the I firm a good coat?" A nice coat was i fitted to him. '' And an overcoat ?" He ! was clothed in a very natty overgar- I ment. As it did not purport to fit very ; well, the gentleman in waiting was asked to.j^o and fin.1 a garment a little Lirger. The garment a little larger was brought forward, hnt when it camf there was no meek customer there. He had slid out of the door very noiselessly and slipped into an alleyway, clad in the suit and overcoat of the clothing firm. He left i his old clothes in exohange. In South Africa rawhide is used as a substitute for all kinds of cordage. It is made into the drag jopes for the wagons, headstalls for the oxen, bridles for the horses, cordage for thatohing the huts, slips for bottoming the beds, chairs and I stools. ] THE EARTHQUAKES. Three Earthquake*?An American ToleanoThe Earthquake In the Eastern States? Exciting Experience* of Inhabitant* of Western Clties-The Southern Earthquake. An unusually mild autumn was signalized at its close by three severe earthquake Bhocks. These shocks were felt in the East, in the West, and in the South. Commenting upon them the Chicago Evening Journal makes the following interesting statement about the recent active condition of a littleknown volcano in Nebraska: Tiie latest eartnquane buock.b, wiuuu especially affected western Iowa, and were still sharper in northeastern Nebraska and southwestern Dakota, bring to mind the fact that the " Ionia Volcano," kDown to a few scientific investigators of the west as existing in the high bluffs near the little village of Ionia, in northeastern Nebraska, is directly in the centre of the area traversed by the earthquake vibrations of Thursday noon. The little fire-mount has at times, in the memory of Indian and white settlers, put on all the airs of an embryonic but ambitious volcano. From out the seams or fissures in the bluffs in that locality have come vapors, i i. ?J vi;__ ? XT~ Lieut ULLU rULUUlUJg JHJLLUUO. iiu DUUH could long accumulate in winter in close proximity to this place, since the heat of the ground would melt it, and springs of water running from the side of the bluff have been made too warm for drinking uses. Being in 0 retired spot, miles away from any line of travel, on the west bank of the Missouri river, in a bluffy region, the little volcano has attracted bhe attention of only a few of those who make such subjects a study, and hence is not mentioned, as we believe, in any of the works on geography or geology. The occurrence of the earthquake, with its key or centre at the Ionia volcano, makes worthy of remark the fact that for a few months past this little American Vesuvius has been unusually active. Its vapors have arisen almost constantly, and, for the first time since white men liave viewed its action, these vapors have been easily distinguishable for a iozen or more miles away. The first of these disturbances of the earth's surface was perceived on November 4, by the inhabitants of northern New Hampshire, Vermont, western \foaan/t)iiiaaffa on/1 flATltxn.1 New York and Canada. The course of the shocks was from west to east. They were especially violent in the Adirondack mountains region. On November 15, an earthquake shock was felt in the 3tates of Kansas, Nebraska and Iowa, and in Dakota Territory. The shock was a very severe one, and its effects were perceptible in most of the cities of the States mentioned. In Omaha, Neb., there was a panic. All persons in the upper floors of the lofty buildings fled to the street. The post-office, a four-story building, was almost deserted. The clerks at work in the Union Pacific railroad company's offices ran from the building, under tjie belief that a large aafe, which was being placed in one of the upper stories, had crushed in the flooring. Others -were of the opinion that some part of the building had fallen, rhe United States military headquarters ind the Grand Central Hotel loet also, in a few seconds, most of their occupants, rhe earthquake was felt throughout the State. The court-house at North Platte was injured, and the walls of the school* house of the place so shaken that the frightened children left the building. Ihe walls of a court-house in Columbus were cracked in nine places. The courtlinnoa of "PlnHomnnfli Tsnn nltm nli/rllflv damaged ; the two upper stories of the liigk school, a four-story brick, were cracked, and some children were injured while fleeing from the building. The children of a school in Peru ran out of the building in great alarm. Two distinct shocks of earthquake were felt at Blair; goods carelessly placed on store shelves were tumbled upon the floor, but no buildings were damaged. At Fort iiandall, the earthquake lasted nearly a minute; buildings were violently shaken, and several Indian tepees were knocked down. The Indians at ifankton agen-jy were greatly excited, ind goods fell off the shelves in the trader's store. In Lincoln, at the Globe office, the racks were swayed to and fro in the third story, thtf type rattled in the 3ases, and although there was not a breath of air stirring, the windows shook and rattled as if a gale of wind was blowing outside. The county officers at work in the second story of the State block, a large building of brick and 3tone, became alarmed and ran frantioxlly down stairs into the streets. Most merchants left their stores. In Sioux City, Iowa, there were two jarthquake waves, the Becond being the nost powerful and immediately following the first. There was a continuous ribration lasting forty-five seconds. In the jourt nouse ine amnct court wwt m session in the upper story. The building began rocking, the chandeliers Gauged, and apparently everything was *bout to tumble into ruin when the jourt, jury, and spectators rushed to the street bareheaded and greatly excited. i\. large congregation in St. Mary's Catholic Church, present to witness confirmation ceremonies, sprang to their feet in alarm, and would have rushed madly from the building but for the reissnring words of the priest. Several ivomen fainted, and two were injured by jumping from their Beats in the choir, to the floor, a distance of twelve feet. The 3?holars and teachers in the High School building were also greatly alarmed and led into the street. Fortunately no one was injured, although several of the scholars leaped into the s4ieet from the first story windows. One of the walls [)f the building was badly cracked. The clocks in many houses were stopped, urockery was broken, and in one house ill the panes in a window wero broken, rhe town must have presented the appearance of a Peruvian village at the moment of an earthquake, for every onp within a building fled from it and into the streets for safety's sake. A rumbling noise was heard before the earthquake was felt. The direction of the wave was from northwest to southwest. Slight shocks of earthquake were felt in Iowa City. The first shock was scarcely noticeable, but the second and third were very perceptible. "On the ground floor of a building there was barely a perceptible tremor, in the second stories it was more distinct, while on third floors and fourth floors, gas fixtures and glass rattled, and there was a plainly perceptible motion as of the floor slipping with jerks. Persons who were on the upper floors at the time were greatly alarmed, and spoke of the tremulous motion as very plain." At Dubuque, the shock was Blight, but the scholars in one of the public schools were bo badly frightened by the thought that the building was about to tumble in, Hiat they were dismissed. In Dea Moines, there was a slight panic among the scholars at the high school, in consequence of the shock. In Council Bluffs, it was feared that several high buildings would fall, but none were damaged. At the high school there was a slight panic. In Kansas the shock whs noticed at Topeka and Atchison. At Topeka, in the Santa Fe depot, the employees felt the building rocking gently from north to south. Three gentleman seated in one of the rooms suddenly looked at each other, and all exclaimed : " Whal is that ?" Several men felt seasick and dizzy, and ran to the windows to Bee il there was a train passing. In one room a door was shut and the rocking-chain rocked. At Atchison there was a severe shock, and hundreds of people rushed into the streoto. lu the oity clerk's office the chandeliers trembled for ton minutef after the Bhock. No damage was done, The earthquake waB also felt in St, Joseph, Mo., and in St. Paul, Minn. On November 16, the day following the earthquake in the West, a violen earthquake shook was felt at Knoxville Tenn. The shock was apparently onlj peroeived at this place in the South, ai there ore Qo reports from any othe: Southern oity of suoh an occurrence Knoxville buildings are not reported t< have been damaged.

Zip's Deathbed. "I never saw suoh a thing in my life," said James Donohue, the night watchman of the Central Park museum. "On Tuesdav Zip,one of Mr. Barnnm'a monkeys, fell suddenly and dangerously ill. He was a great favorite with his companions?their leader in mischief. Superintendent Conklin examined him, and said he would die. We got a bed of straw and cotton for him, and left warm milk by his side." Mr. Donahue meditated briefly, as though picturing the scene in his. mind and then said: "Yes, in all my experience as a night watchman amoug beasts, I never saw such a thing in my life. At. eleven o'clock I went to the cage. Usually the monkeys at night Bit huddled together, sound asleep; but this time they 'were all wide awake, sitting silent and moveless, watching Zip's dying agonies. Zip lay in a corner, sobbing and moaning. Jack and Pete, the two trick monkeys, were at his side. Jaok had Zip's head resting on his bosom, while Pete every now and then dipped his paw in the milk and wet Zip's lips. Wasn't that strange ?" The reporter assented. "But there's a stranger thing about it yet," Mr. Donohue continued; "at midnight Zip died. Then came what my partner Keilly, and Bam urn's man, say they never saw the like of. As Zip's V>nn<l f^ll limn in fVifl arms nf h? gave a little low squeal, and Pete sprang to his side. Pete looked at Zip, lifted up one of his paws, tapped him gently on the breast, put his ear to his heart, raised his head, and then gave a shrill squeal. Jack in answer dropped Zip just as naturally as a human being would at the first intimation that the form he held was dead. Pete was the first to recover himself. Slowly he approached Zip, examined bim closely, raised him in his arms, dropped him hard on the floor of the cage, and, as Zip did not move, sprang to the uppermost peroh. Wasn't that strange ?" | The reporter assented. " Then sir," continued Mr. Donohue, "came the most extraordinary thing ever witnessed in the park. The monkeys set up the most piercing screams. The baby monkeys pressed close to their mothers, and the females close to the males. All chattered and chattered, and pointed to poor Zip. Finally, Pete and Jack, followed by all the others, sprang to the bottom of the cage. They were all silent now, moving slow, and in the form of a circle they gradually came nearer and nearer. Then, hugging close, they stopped- A.11 night long they remained watching the body, and I never saw a wake that could beat that one, for earnestness and sympathy." After a pause, Mr. Donohue said, " He'll be stuffed." " Who ?" the reporter asked. "Zip, of course," was the reply. A Dangerous Counterfeit. A man giving his name as William E. Curtis, and representing himself as a Buffalo fruit dealer, entered Sweeny & Brother's banking office, corner of Ann and Nassau streets, New York, not long ago, and tried to purchase a 81,000 four per cent, treasury bond, offering a 81,000 greenback in payment. Mr. Sweeny did not like the appearance of the note, and asked time to ascertain its genuineness, which was freely accorded. Ths note was pronounced good at three different banks, but not being entirely satisfied, Mr Sweeny went to the sufc>treasury, where it was decided to be a counterfeit, and stamped accordingly. Capt. Sampson was notified, and he 1 ' ^A AM/1 COOK UUrUtt 111WJ uumuuji uuu u>uu(jm him before United States commissioner Denl. Curtis said he had come to New York to buy fruit, and had drawn the note from a Buffalo savings bank, where ha had a deposit of SI,200. He averred that he be believed the note to be good. The commissioner was inclined to credit his story, and let him go on hia own recognizance for further examination. The counterfeit iB an exceedingly good one, the only apparent difference between it and a genuine note being the fact that the "lathe work" has been engraved by hand and i not so regular as it should be. This can only be detected on close examination. The Influence of Malaria Counteracted. I on..* ikA Vioi-mfiil inflnnni'fl niv>n the human iua l tuo uui i system of malaria may be effectually counteracted baa been demonntrated for years past by the protection afforded the inhabitants of vest miasma-breeding districts in North acd South America, Guatemala, Mexioo and the West Indies by Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. Used a preventive, they have invariably been found to be a most reliable safeguard against chills and fever, bilious remittents, and still more malignant types of malarious disease, and when employed as a remedy have always proved their adequacy to the task of eradicatmg such maladies from the system. For disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels, which in hot climates and miasmatio localities are particularly rife, the Bitters are a prompt and thorough remedy. They also strengthen the system, tranquili'ze the nerves, promote digestion and sound sleep, and impart unwonted relish for food. Mra.
