| Abstract | Part VI of a 6 part article spanning the months of July through December 1877 in this weekly periodical. |
| Notes | "Babees:" p. 789. "The religion [Islam] must have no little power that welded the lawless Arabs into a compact commonwealth... It cannot want adaptability if it... keeps together the empire of the luxurious Persian and sustains the sway of the degenerate Turk. It must have wonderful comprehensiveness to embrace among its votaries the frantic Darweesh and the contemplative Sufi, to claim for its own the sullen fanaticism of the Wahhabees, the self-inflicted tortures of the Babees, as well as the comfortable formalism of the orthodox Muslim...." |
