"The inhtbitaniof one part of Egypt wor eats, while their neighbor of another 4ret paid their adoration to iogt; and this disa greement ia religioul observance occasioned the Meat cncomproiaising hostility. In the early agea ot the Cnrisuaa cnurcn, jwo eminent ministers oi that holy religion were arrested by the order of Ua heathen authorities, and both corJlned in one fl. Here, with the prospect of martyrdom be tore their eyes, they began to dispute on some 'abstruse theological subject, which was comparo i lively of very litta consequence, and the alterca tia proceeded to such a length that the reverend gentlemen petitioned their jailers for some waste boards, to make a partition across their apartment avhl being accomplished each setups separate school of divinity for himself. In the present limes, owing to the progress of knowledge and civilization, religious disputes are not carried to i aoc.il an unreasonable height.

'ot unftequently, the whole of this an VJ epposition proeeeds, from the contested me rus of two candidates for office; which ia a gpsd deal like the Egyptians quarrelling about the divine qualities of their don and cats. We itaye often thought that' the. candifaue and 'Cae cats might cherish equal sentiments of re pert and gratitude (or tbeir obsequious votaries. Naval RaraiiUHD. On Saturday, at eleven the order of the Secretary of the Navy Sto read publicly, ia the presence of all the offi Mrs of the Philadelphia station, the rtprimand of Midship Ckarkt Wetton, was complied with.

Tbe document is quite a lengthy one, and was read by the clerk of the yard before a large au ditory, in the room occupied by tbe Court Hor (ial body having adjourned for the purpose. Midshipman Weston, it will be remembered. etas tried at Norfolk in March mst, on a charge freferred against him by Lieut, Kennedy, who, we believe, wae the second lieutenant of the frigate United States, to which they were both attached. The specification in the charge was a breach of discipline in disrespectful conduct to superior ofEcera, He was convicted and sentenced to the somewhat novel punishment in the Kavy of a dismissal from the vessel to which be raa then attached, and id be publicly reprimand ed by the head of the Naval department the re gsrimand to be read at every Naval station in the ITaien as early after its receipt as practicable. The paper, though ostensibly a reprimand of (Midshipmen Weston, it struck us upon the reading; was far more lenient ia its censure of that individual than it was of the Captain and First (Lieutenant of the frigate to which he was at Cached.

The Secretary, in narratiug the case of fix. accompanies it with a recital of many extenuating circumstances whereas, the art Crary conduct of his superior officers in command, Cs plain and First is rebuked anthem The paper, every thing emanating from the polished pen of Secretary Paulding, is smoothly and handsomely written and, though dealing censure, does it in language so chaste and terms so bland that but for its, title we should be strongly inclined to mm epistolary eiprestiou of civility and kindness, rather than the rebuke of that august tribunal, a Naval Court Martial.

Ito wno woulJ clit ai a printer, is in dunger of robbing hen roosts nml sheep I here is no doubt of that, for dentine and rob bery involve the. same principle, and in the eett. mation or men sliould come ithin the snme cat egory. He who cheats his neighbor out of his property, or any part of it, ia actuutca by tho same motives tnai prompt the midnicht robber. He commila the same crime, in a moral point of view, ana only awaits an opportunity of evading the difference of consequencee to himself, produced by a legal distinction, to perpetrate the crime in eitner mode ith equal readiness.

But if the Sun means to imply that it ia a mure heinous offence to cheat a printer than any one else, (a very common Opinion among the profession, founded, proba bly, on the fact that their duties are more onerous and arduous, and consequently a living is earned with more difficulty by them than with the treat majority of mechanics and professions.) we cannot see that there are sufficient reasons to justify me conciusMtu tt tbe kind ef legitimate busi ness by which property is acquired ia to be taken into the account, and ia to be effective in heitiht etaing or lessening the degree of crime perpetrated by those ho defraud the owner of it, so should be the advantages which the owner mar possess over others of guarding against fraud and If the difficulties which a printer has to en counter in earning his money be greater than tnose of other mechanics, it will be recollected that he possesses also many advautntres over most of them in having it in his power to acquire knowledge how to avoid imposition and fraud. And if both OifttprvtrijJet, taken together, are to urcoauiv uiv uegrv 01 crime incncaiing, we presume the Sun would araume the ground that there ran, be nothing piorally wrong in defrauding a Est AT or Amtho Coswxt. The Court of Escheats met on the 1st of the present month, to determine the question In relation to the estate of Mr. M'ConnelL who died suddenly in Decem ber, leaving (as was generally believed) an estate of seventy or eighty thousand dollars. In March last, at the meeting of the Court of Escheats, claims were filed in behalf of a lady and tw? children, professing to be the widow and children of Anthony Conncll, and also in behalf of a lady claiming to be the deceased's sister.

Since that lime several claims have made their appear ance. These several claimants were represented by counsel at the recent session, and some Inter eating testimony was advanced. Jn behalf of the sister, a witness from Ireland was examined, whose testimony went to show that the deceased hat two sitters living one of whom is at this time in the county of Donegal, Ireland, Several respectable witnesses from Baltimore were examined with regard to the claim of the widow and children. The children of the deceased weriTproduced in court, and several his let ters, embracing a period of many years, and until a short time before his death, were read to the jury. The testimony adduced weut to show the deceased to hare been i a T'mosl extraordinary and eccentric man, and fully confirmed the representations of other witnesses, a to many striking features in his character.

The court adjourned on the evening of the 2d, to meet again on the first Monday in September next, at which time it ia believed the remaining witnesses will be in attendance, and the question of Escheat finally disposed ot I 3, SSBBBMiSBBawSBMBaiBBSSMSBSSMMSa Taa LaccbUn Mcanttw Jeflersoo Griffith, alios John Alexander, waa arrested in Baltimore on Thursday last, and examined on Friday am) committed lo prison, charged with having thrown brick at Thomas H.

Captain Antonio immediately went in search of the pirates, ond soon found them on shore, near the Cape, actively employed in unloading the cargo of the brig.

Whether ne iron!) had voted not, did not appear, but it did appear that the papers had been voted upon by some one, and not unlikely by some two, at said election.
