“It is our painful and disgusting task this day to notice a charge which has been made against a _Right Reverend Bishop_, at Marlborough-street police office, at which human nature revolts. The circumstances are of such public notoriety at the west end of the town, that it would be in vain, _if any delicacy were due_ to the party accused, to attempt to keep them from general observation. The individual to whom we allude was recently promoted to an Irish bishopric, and is _nearly related to a Peer in Parliament_. He is an elderly man, and we understand was much respected in that class of society to which he belonged. On Friday night it appears _that he was detected in a back room of the White Lion public-house_, _in St. Alban’s place_, _St. James’s_, in a situation with a _private __in the Foot Guards_, to which we will not more minutely allude, but which led to his instant apprehension and removal with his companion _to the watch house_. There were not fewer than _seven witnesses_ to the fact; and it would seem that the Reverend Prelate with difficulty escaped the _vengeance of the populace_, who, if not prevented by the peace-officers, would have sacrificed him to their indignation on the spot. As it was, he was _severely beaten_. On being secured in the watch-house, he offered bail any amount for his liberation; but this was very properly refused, and he remained locked up in the cell during the night in a state of mind which may be more easily imagined than described.

Mr. Dyer, the presiding magistrate, determined on a _private examination_, at which Mr. Alley, who attended for the Bishop, was present. The witnesses were called in separately, but their testimony was in all respects consistent, and the case established was to a _certain extent_ of the clearest nature. Mr. Alley, however, submitted that as the capital charge had not been borne out, his client was _entitled to bail_; a proposition to which we understand Mr. Dyer _was obliged to accede_; and the wretched offender was permitted, in the course of the day, _to go at large_, upon _finding sureties_ to the amount of _one thousand pounds_. The soldier, _not so fortunate_, was committed _to take his trial_.—For reasons which are obvious, we decline entering more minutely into the details of this most shocking affair; but we ought in justice _to a worthy prelate_, whose name has _unfortunately been mentioned_ by mistake, in connection with the charge, to request our readers _to reflect_ before they come to a _positive determination_ as _to the
