A Misrepresentation.

DR.. Bishop, in his paper. The Friend, set
forth the following propositions
"That personal devil is actually stimulating the
depravty of men, and organizing the forces OF crime
and wckedness, is working hypothesis OF no small
utility"
The Editor of the advertiser in the issue
of the | lth inst. quoted this sentence, then
related story in which an insane Minister
said that "the Devil is more useful than
many of the Deacons," and then indicted the
following diabolica Misrepresentation:
This divine agreed with DR.. Bishop that the Devil
was So working hypothesis of no small utility, and as
useful member of society, had most important part
to play
1t is perfectly clear that DR.. Bishop speaks
of the utility of the hypothesis, and not OF
the usefulness of Satan. Certainly he did
not call the Devil ga working hypothesis.
That this is a misrepresentation, any body
can readily see. That it is diabolical mis-
representation is useful hypothesis; for, in
the first place, this view of it accounts tor
the singular conduct of the Editor of the
advertiser in attempting to make DR.. Bishop
appear ridiculous in the eyes of his readers,
and in the second place, it illustrates the
truth of what DR.. Bishop said.
If there is personal devil who stimulates
the depravity of men, then we are able on
rational grounds to account for this misrepre.
sentation on the part of the Editor of the
morning paper; but if there is no such
esprit working in the children of disobedi-
ence,' his conduct remains an enigma which
battles all efforts to understand.

got sentence of $50 and costs for having
been found guilty of stealing Is chickens
from Frederick kean at the Addition. The
case is one upon which Chief of Police
Smith has been at work recently. Napo-
leon Norman, who is believed to have
been the leader of the gang, has left the
city. Norman is also suspected of other
and more serious crimes.
1t developed from the evidence that the

city in which to place the stolen chickens
and then sold them to different parties
Several gamecocks were kept at the barn
for some purpose not shown by the evil
dence. The chickens in question We're sold
to Isaac Pearlman and one of the inter
csting features of the hearing was the de-
mand of Pearlman made upon Brsson for
payment of his money back when he was
told he would be obliged to restore tht
fowls to Mr.. Kean, Several losses OF
chickens in this city and outside the city
limits have occurred recently and this
gang is thought to have been responsible
