A Bishop's Investment.
At the Police Commission at Dunedin the other day, a witness named James McGill directed^ attention to houaei off Filleut-street, which were kept by the lowest class of women and frequented by all sorts of disreputable characters. He said complaint had been made to the Minister of Justice, (he landlord of the houses, and the mortgagee, Bishop Nevill, but he got very little sad faction by complaining. Bishop Nevill told (he witness he was very sorry, but that he had invested his money in the place, and he was afraid if he took any pro:npt acion he would lose it. The wi ne^s said the elate of affairs he had coinp ained .of had been going on for sixteen years, but his complaint against the police was not half as much as against the ground landlord and the mortgagee, Bishop Nevill. And now the public awaits the esplan.tion oi ihe ecclesiastic—StandarJ.
