DiSraeli's Speech Last Friday
Night.

The English Premier made speech at
the Lord Mayors banquet, in London,
last Friday night, which, under the cir.
cumstances, is bound to be considered
very significant as respects the Eastern
war. We quote from the telegraphic ab.
'sraet Of it as follows:
He declared in strong terms that the
government uuswervingly adhered to the
declaration they made at the commence.
ment Of the war, that British neutrality
must cease II British interests were as.
sailed or menaced. He believed this
policy OF remaining neutral, except in
defense OF English luterests, was the best
policy, not oaly for England, but for
Turkey, as 1t had enabled Turkey to dis
play an amount Of vigor and force which
had demonstrated her right to be recog.
ni1ed among tha sovereign powers, aud
had dissipated the formerly current be.
lel that her people were edete. Although
the independence Of Turkey was subject
OF ridicule a year ago, Whatever might be
1ne fortune OF war, her Independence was
now undoubted. With regard to pros.
Pects OF peace, he did not take the dis.
pondinS views which some invariably
did on such subjects. He was encour.
aged not to do so by the remembrance
that the Gar had solemnly declared his
only aim was the amelloration Of the
condition OF the Christians.
While the Sultan had repeatedly ex.
pressed his readiness TO grant reforms, Il
might be said there was difficulty
Which prevented the Gar and Sultan
although they entirely sgfeed upon every
subject, from establishing peace, which
they both desired. [ChcerS and laughter. ]
He, too, combAted the theory that waI
must be continued for the sake OF Russia's
military prestige. He could not under.
stand how that preStige suffered. He
did not consider prestige TO be question
Of a single victory which might be the re
suit Of chance. Il rather depended upou
the governments being able 10 command
the services Of u brave and devoted peo,
pie, and the Russian soldiers fully prov
Cd their possession Of those qualities
lie concluded governments have both
hope and patience with respect TO war
and l trust the time is NOT far distant
when, with the rest Of the powers, We may
contribute TO q settlement Of difficulties
Naish may secure the peace md indie
pendenee Of Europe.

A Preacher ON Bob Ingcrsolrs
AppOintment,

New YORK, November 1O.-Rev. Mr..
Talmage lectured last night at the Brook.
lyn Tabernacle on the political affairs Of
the day. The nirthful event of tue week,
said he, and the joke Of the present
National Administration is the appoint.
ment by President Hayes Of Colonel In
gersoll as Minister to Germany, the
birthplace Of modern infdelity. Colonel
Ingersoll has been filling the land with
blatant in6delity, and on the stage Of
our own Academy Of Music took the lib.
erty Of giving the opinion that God was
great ghost and has been delivering his
lecture entitled, "An Honest God the
Noblest Work OF Man." President Hayes
Is Methodist and OF course accepts in
their heartiest meaning all the truths Of
Christianity, and now he sends Mr.. In.
gerSoll to Germany, the nest OF modern
sceptictsm-a nomination so Ct to be
made that II has kept me smiling all the
week. WO hope he will accept the nom.
lnation, our country can stand it and
Germany will feel no shock.

An Illinois Slurderer-Arrest Of
the suspected Murderer In st.

ao huREeSpeu Wuruefee IN III
ST.. Loup, November lO.--Josept
Engeler, alias Carl Ssrahl. was arrested
here, yesterday, on suspicion Of hayinI
murdered Mrs. Goetz, vile Of Henry
Goetz, farmer, living three or four milel
from Columbia, Illinois, on Sunday nigh
last, The body OF Mrs. Goelz was found
10 the cellar ot the house by the neigh
bors on Wednesday, with the head crush
ed In BY blow from an axe. Eugolel
came here with q pair Of mules aud 4
wagon, which had been used by GoelE
and was arrested while trying to sell
them for a very small sum, which aroused
the suspicion that they had been stolen,
During the day officers from Columbia
arrived, who identified the mules and
wagon, and several articles OF clothing
and jewelry, In the possession Of EnEClef,
as belonging TO Goeiz. The prisoner was
taken back TO Columbia, last night, BY the
officers.
Henry GoetE, husband OF the murdered
woman, has not been seen since the night
oil the murder, and Il Is suspected Engeler
murdered him also and secreted his body
with the view Of making It appear a.
though GoetE killed his vile and then lsd.
Although Engeler refused TO give any
account Of himself, or explain how he
came In possession OF tho property Of
Goetz, there seems 10 be no doubt that he
committed the murder, Robbery appears
to be the only motive Engeler could have
had for committing the deed.
IATER-THE MURDERER LYEcHED.
It is reported here that Carl Sthrahl,
alias Joe Engeler, who was arrested here
yesterday for the murder Of Mrs. Goetz,
near Columbia, Ills, was lynched to-day
BY an infuriated mob OF citizens, but no
particulars have yet been received. The
telegraph Offices are all closed and moth
Ing can be obtained that way. Reporters
from here have gone out but probSbly
will not return I'LL too late to telegraph
tonight.
Areporter, just returned from Colum-
bia, says Carl stTahl made a confession
to the officers who took him from here
last evening, the purport Of which is that
heShot and killed Henry Goetz some dis.
tanee from his home, and then went to
the house and killed Mrs. GoeiE, took
the mules and wagon, robbed the house
and premises Of everything Of value and
started for st. Louis. When this was
made known this morning, about one hun.
dred citizens determined 10 lynch the
Gend, and after compelling hin:to show
them where he bad secreted the body Of
Goetz, they took him to the woods and
suspended him to tree. Robbery scCms
to have been the mans motive.
