Bishop O'REGAN AND DEPUTY SHERIEY-A
SCENE AT THE PALAcE.--An exciting and highl,
| interesting scene transpired at the Palace 0
'Johu Bishop of Chicago" yesterday, in which
his Grace appeared in very undigniied anG
unchristian character.
From the statements of the Deputy Sheriffs
1t appears that the Bishop has played them some
scurvy tricks when they have attempted to
| serve the numerous summons for debt which
issue against him. On one occasion Deputy
Anderson went to the palace with writ, and
after being kept in waiting over an hour, found
that his Grace had left by the back door, or, as
the boosters say, ''scooted."
Yesterday morning, about 8 o'clock, Deputy
Anderson went to the Palace to serve q sum-
mons upon the Bishop, issued out Of the Com
mon Pleas Coult, at the suit Of Mr. Skcl!ey, to
recover the sum Of 81, 600, being for work done
and materials furnished the Palace Aforesaid
Anderson determined not to be outwitted by
the Bishop this time, and laid his plans accord.
inglo.
A pull at the bell handle summoned lad to
the door, and Anderson inquired il the Bishop
was in, and receiving an Affirmative answer, sta
| ted tina; he wished to see him upon some i'm
portant usiness. "What is your name, sir:
Inquired the lad. George" answered the Dep.
uty "Mr. George, is its" replied the lad, and
started to inform the Bishop without waiting
for an answer. "Well eno',n solloqused the
Deputy, as he walked into the reception room

| In few moments his Grace entered the room,
and seeing the Deputy, exclaimed: "Arrah, All
its yerself is il! Plat do you want wild mel
Sure, III not hear q divil word from ye, sir, !
and his per.urbed Grace attempted to escape
from the room, but the deputy blockaded the
doorway with his portly form. The Bishop 1T
tempted to force the blockade, when the Deputy
seized him by the gown. .Anethema maran-
atha! Ye thafe av the world, yer tearing me
howly robes" shouted his worship, purple with
rage. The Deputy, however, Was not to be
frightened, either BY ancient expletives Of the
threats Of Bishop, and replied in NO very gen.
tie tones-'I dinna care dom, ye. mali stop
till We ken the writ. | wud ma care al ye were
twenty Bishops; I'm an officer and ken my duty
weel, and I'll ma let We or any mon talk to me
in that fashion"
The Deputy then read the writ from beginning
to end, not emitting word, and his Grace was
compelled to listen to it or sacrifice his silk robe
which the Deputy held with firm GRASP. Al
soon as the Bishop was released he exclaimed
ITS an fool We are, aud devil soul in the
city but know il sure, ye ould Scotch sinner
Be of wild ye," and his lordship started ny
stairs, but not in time TO escape the reply Of the
Deputy-"You're . dam'd old fool yerser an .
disgrace to . the Catholics in the toon, and \
ye stay wi US long ,herl ma be . Catholic left il
the city"
BY this time his Grace is probably satisfied
that our laws and the officers who execute then
are no rcspec.ors OF persons and that ne Is no
just now in Priest-cursed Italy, but in free lii
nois. II Bishop O'Ragan believes that be car
set the laws and officers at defiance, he must D
convinced after few such experiences % b
had to day that he has made sad blunder.-
