Muhammadanism to be inaugurated in Paris.

A traveled Turk, Hadji Abd-el-Hamid by name, has become sufficiently cosmopolitan in his taste to be willing to take up his permanent abode among ‘"dogs of infidels."’ He has established himself, with his family, in Paris, and, being still a good Mohammedan, he proposes to erect there a mosque, and, in connection with it, an Eastern inn, or caravanserai, baths a la Turk, and a school for instruction in the Koran.
