[Speeian to Tue Examiner.) Lonpox, Nov. 10.—The Lord Mayors Banquet last night was a brilliant affair, Lord Saliebury made a lergthy speech. After preliminary remarks alluding to the crisis with France the Premier said: We hase had quite recently io 6©consider whether the question of an LHuropean war was pot very near; but with great interest and con- sideration the result has turned out hap- ply, owing to the good jadgment and | i } common sense displayed by France under circumstances of uousuel difficulty, which | I think bave relieved Europeof avery dangerous and threatening storm. Waile the nations were in suspense the Government was necessarily forced to! take precautions that it should not be taken unawares. These precautions were most prompt and effective, but the immediate nenecsititt for them bas passed off. There has been some surprise on both j sides of the channel at the fact that those preparations have not saddenly ceased, but it is impossible to stop them al a moment’s notice.” Afier referring to various intended action arising out of these pre- rumors of parations, ineludiog the seizure of Syria j and Ciete, and the declauriug of a protec- latter allusion torate over Egypt—the being greeted with immense cheering—'| Lord Salisbury continued: “I am sorry to say I cannot rise to the height of the as- pirations indicated by the cheering of thin audience. 1 do not venture to prophecy. { We are forced by others into the position we now oeeupy, and do not know what mey ocear, but we are well satisfied the existing state of things and we do not think any cause has arisen to necessitate an effort on Our part at the present time to modify it. What bas been imposed upon us in that subject, is that the matter of war is terr:- bly prevalent on all sides. We see nations decaying woose Govern~ ment is so bad that itcan neither :oaintain with the power of self defence uur retain the afteciion of its subjects and when this occ ars there are always neigbbors impelled by some nootive, it may be the highest philanthropy or it may be the natural desire of the empire to contest as to who shall be heir io the following nation and that is the canse Of war. Lord Salisbury then alluded to the ra- pidity and unexpectednees with which wars break out,and said: “If Greet Britain should, we) permit her sea defences to weaken ber whcleempire would fall clat. tering to the ground.” It is therefore im- possible in the present state and temper o! the world to interrupt our naval and mih- tary precautions. Britain and Egypt. Loxpox, November 9.—The report that England will deelare & protectorate over Egypt is persistent bere and on the con— tinent. An influential part of the cabi- net favours the declaration. The British bewspapers are passing from bints of it 10 open advocacy and public opinion is gen- erally eucouraging. The international situation 1s slso favorable, with Germany, friendly and Russia absorbed in other matters, leaving only France to oppose the plan. Greek Cabinet Resigns.

Wasuincroy, Nov. 10.—The electione occupied the attention of the cabinet at o special occasion meeting which was in the nature of an excharge of congratulations on the general results. The feeling expressed was that the elec- tion reevlis showed party endorsement of the administration and that in the main the Kepublican losses in some of the cities were attributed to the development of local feelings of gratifisation. The ou'look for the Senate make up the opinion that there wouid be a Republican ms} rity of eight and perhaps more in that body. As tothe House there was some appre~ hevsion, though the belief was expressed that there might bea Republican majo,_ ity of perbaps not over three.
