Albert Webb Bishop (January 8, 1832 – November 29, 1901) was a lawyer who served in the Union Army during the American Civil War, worked as a public official, and was a college president.

[4] As Adjutant General, Bishop submitted the manuscript, Report of the Adjutant General of the State of Arkansas..., as a document accompanying the governor's message to the legislature of the State of Arkansas, which disregarded the governor's recommendation that it be printed by their order.

A. Hadley sent General Bishop to Pope County "as a commissioner of peace and to discover the actual state of feeling."

Bishop, in a report to Hadley, said that there was "insufficient" cause for a declaration of martial law and that the people generally believed that peace should be maintained.

[7] With the resurgence of Democratic Party control and redeemers, he saw a decline in his income and station.
