j. d. FULTONS DEFENSE.-On Sunday
morning Rev. J. d. Fulton preached sermon
at fremont Temple on Temperance, in which
he said that man who would stand up in
place like fremont Temple, and then 60
and trail the garments of Christianity in the
slime of aggregation, would be living curse
a hypocrite. After the sermon he read the
article of Theodore Tilton, to the effect that
Mr.. Fulton, after paeaching at Rev. DR.. Ar
mitage's church one Sunday evening" went
with well-knOwn merchant to lager beer
place in the Bowery, and there drank several
glasses of beer. He also read the proceedings
at meeting of friends and members of his
church, at which it was resolved to commence
libel suit against Mr.. Tilton. The speaker
Rev. Drs. d. L. Taylor, Theodore Tyler and
James b. Simmons. On Saturday morning
they all visited Mr. Tilton, and asked him to
allow them to have an interview with the
merchant alluded to in the article published
Mr.. Tilton declined to send for the gentleman,
but went with Mr.. Fulton to the Office of the
New York Independent, where he was intro
duced to the party, whom he recognized as a
fellow student and a Snowman who had ex-
hlblted section of a Californian t,ee at the
Crystal Palace. To Mr.. FuIton's INQUIRY as to
drank beer as stated in the article in Mr.. Til
tons paper, he said he had not mentioned the
number of glasses. Mr.. Fulton then asked
him If he did not know When the two were
students at Michigan University that his tenn
perance principles were so strong that he took
another student, who was very incorporate.
to room with him in order to reform him. He
answered that he did. When Mr. Fulton
asked him squaIely if he ever went in his
company from DIR. Armitage's church and
drank any beer at saloon, he said they did,
but when asked if he would allow Mr.. Fulton
to send for DR.. Armitage to show that he had
never preached there but once, and that one
Sunday after his return from Europe, two
years ago, when two members of his church
from Boston were with him, and he said he
would not allow it. Mr.. Fulton then charged
him with being a false witness against an old
college friend, and said he should decline to
have his friends prosecute libel suit under
snch circumstances. At a subsequent inter-
view between Messrs Fulton and Tilton in
the presence Of Drs. Taylor and Simmons,
Mr.. Tilton refused to retract what he had
published, when Mr.. Fulton stated that he
should leave the matter with his church to do
as they saw best. Having made his state
ment he left the matter with the American
people.

PRUSSIA SUEING FOR PEAcE.-A Lopdo
dispatch of Monday says:

dispatch OF Monday says:
The Prnssan embassy here addressed itself
to-day to the English Government with view
to gain the cooperation of Great Britain in
its efforts for peace. The English Government
is instructed that Prussia is prepared to modi-
fy seriously her demands for money indem-
nifty or to abandon it altogether; that the neu-
tralization of Strasbourg and Metz will be "a c.
cepted in lieu of their surrender; that the de-
mand of Prussia for the surrender of the
French men-of-war is abandoned entirely.
The Russian Government has signified dis
tinctly its absolute determination rot to per-
init the transfer of any part of the French
fleet to the North German flag. It is also un-
derstood that Russia insists upon a European
Congress as preliminary to treaty of peace
and that Prince Gortschakoff has informed the
Government of Berlin that if the fortresses of
the Rhine frontier are to be neutralized Russia
will require equivalent guarantees to be given
to her on the B iltic and on the Polish line.
This demand of Russia is supported by an in
formal vote from the Austto- Hungarian chan
Gerry.
The Government of Holland also presented
a claim to be heard GA the terms of settlement
in the congress of powers and the Dutch vote
has received the appreciation and support of
the Russian Government.
