LETTER FROM AN EGYPTIAN

FRIEND MEHEMIr. i will continue the
subject | was on in my last, and state that
the religion of this country is called
Christianity This Christian religion is
divided into about fifty different sects or
denominations, all claiming belief in
JESUS CHRIST, the founder of the religion
but all at loggerheads on the manner Of
worshiping him. The religious news
papers that / mentioned in my last have
a great tendency to keep those senseless
animUsities alive. In fact this appears to
be their whole ann aud object. The
Methodist organs proclaim the doc
time of that denomination with absolute
certainty; while the Baptist lights a.
fiercely contend they are all wrong, and
accuse the Methodist of confounding the
meaning Of certain passages to their own
advantage while the Roman Catholic Or
gans assuming a superiority over all the
rest. boldly accuses them of Infdelity,
and of being wanderers from the true
fold, which they proudly proclaim as no
other than the Church Of Rome"
Thus the common people are constantly
kept in a state of fermentation 10y few
designing knaves, whose principal object
is to make all the money they can out Of
their religious newspapers.
The priests and preachers of this same
Christian religion exert powerful intlu-
ence over the domestic concerns Of the
Republic. There are some really good
men belonging to those orders; but, on
the other hand, there are some of the
most unprincipled wretches that ever di'
graced Gods beautiful ioot>stool. Only
few weeks since one of the brightest
lights that adorned certain church was
before a court OF justice, charged with a
crime that | am ashamed to name; while,
last week, one OF the preachers where !
am sojourning. thought it no disgrace to
take pusilistic encounter with one oft the
vulgar herd.
! Those things are talked Of in the COM
munity, but should be no criterion for us
to Judge the religion o: the heather by.

OHIO ELECTION.

The election for State officers took
place in Ohio on Tuesday of last week
and resulted in q triumph for the Re
publicans by a majority Of nearly five
thousand. The currency question was
made the main issue, the Republicans
favor;ng a return to specie payment
and the Democrats advocating green
back currency sufficient for the wants
of the people. Every effort was made
by each party to carry the day. If the
currency question had been left out of
the Democratic platform, ALLEN would
have been reelected almost beyond a
doubt, and then his chances for Demo
cratic nomination for President would
have been good, but now they are
blasted forever. rs the Ne,r Era suggests
a new horse will have to be brought
out.
Iowa and Nebraska held State elec,
tioas on the same day Of the Ohio cleo
ton, and both Of them were carried by
tie Republicans, the former by thirty
thou5ari, and tie latter by ten thou
sand majority
