RECEPTION OF THE HAYTIAN MINISTER.
a, WARRINGTON, Nov. 22.-The new Haytiau
tninister was formally presented to the Presi.
Gent to-day by Secretary Fish. He was in full
ulpiomatic uniform. The usual friendly salu-
tations were exchanged. The President in re-
sponse to the Minister alluded to, as one of the
results of our late civil strife, the right of col
ored people to employ ment abroad as well as
at home in the public service; a right which
has been acknowledged by the appointment OF
one OF the prescribed race to represent the
United States in Hayti He congratulated
himself on having occasion to render homage
to the change in public sentiment.
NATIONAL BANK RETURNS.
Returns were received from 1918 national
banks. showing their condition at tine close of
business Oct. 8. The aggregate of their re-
sources and liabilities was 81 ,497 ,236 ,6O4. The

719295 in legal tender notes, and S., 585, 900 in
three per cent certificates. The loans and

PARAGUAYAN AFFAIRS.
The investigation of the sub committee of
foreign affairs into Paraguayan matters has, it
is said. developed the fact of long standing
difficulty between our diplomatic and naval
corps abroad, involving the question of ulti-
mate authority. The committee have accord
1ngly resolved to summon before them, Vice
Admiral Porter and Second Assistant Secreta-
~ OF state Hunter, to give testimony on each
branch OF the question as to the theory and
practice of our diplomatic representation and
naval officers in the discharge of their official
duties while in foreign ports. The examina-
tion concerns the charge that naval officers
have acted Independently of or have not con-
suited the views of our diplomatic representa-
tives on important public matters which should
secure cooperation or unity of action. The
investigation will, it is thought, lead to such
definite regulations as will insure this desira-
BILE object.
EXECUTIVE APPOINTMENTS.
The President has appointed Robert M.
Douglas, son the late Senator Douglas, to be
his Private Secretary; James T. Ely of ILL.,,
taking Douglas for position as Assistant Pri-
yate Secretary. These changes do not affect
Gen. Porter's important position or official re-
lations at the Executive mansion.
THE sHIPBUILDING INTERESTS.
The Secretary of State has informed Hon.
John Lynch, chairman of the special commit
tee on the navigation interest, that he has in
structed all our Consuls, including those in
the Canadian Dominion, to collect and furnish
the committee with the information desired by
them relative to shpbuilding in the countries
where they are located.

for Buffalo, and the last boats which are tt
make the round trip to that point left this city

at slight decline on the summer and tall tar
lit, the price per hundred weight to Chicago
having fallen to 40 cents. An immense quan
tity of western apples and butter are ascer.
tanned to be en- route for this market by the ca

the northern and middle counties of this State
The last shipments of anthracite coal from
Baltimore for Albany and Troy, which will be
made the present year, were forwarded from
this city via the Delaware & Raritan canal
This coal will probably continue to arrive here
for a month to come, but will not be forwarded
af'er this date to Albany and Troy.

Last evening the greatest living American
tragedian made his appearance for the second
time in this city before one of the finest audi
ences ever assembled in City Hail. The audi
ence, composed as it was of the refined and ed
ucated, was one of which any actor might we'll
be proud, and We could only regret that Edwin
Booth should consider his own genius and
ability sufficient attraction without the aid
OF actors of fair talent for a support. Of
Booths Hamlet we have nothing to add to
what we have said before. 1t is creation that
will be handed down to posterity, with the act
ing of his father of Macready, of the KEN
bles and of Kean. A late writer has said we'll
and properly Of him sit is an honor to us to en-
tertain 30 great an artist, and we hope that no
man or woman, either of culture or sensibility,
failed last night to add to the riches of memo
ry Booths magnificent Interpretation of the
greatest dramatic poem.' We regret extreme
iy that previ GUS engagement of the hall pre-
vented his appearing for three more evenings
in characters which he has never personated in
Portland, and especially that our citizens are
not afforded an opportunity to witness him in
what we consider one of his best parts, that of
Sir Giles Ooverreach in ga New Way to Paw
Old Debts" We hope that Mr.. Booth may re-
turn again before long. and that whAn he d'"es
he will honor himself more by the selection of
a corps dramatique who have some idea of what
good acting is. With the exception of "pass-
ing fair" Horatio, Polonius, Grave Digger and
Ophelia, the rest were unworthy of a second
class theatre.
We think all present last evening will admit
how inappropriate CITY Hall is for theatrical
performances. The poverty of scenery, the
ridiculous furling and unfurling of the scenes,
the crowding of Hamlet and his friends against
the canvas by the ghost, the continued tramp
tramp behind the scenes, drowning some of the
finest passages of the play, the slamming of
doors, the continued state of turmoil and con-
fusion which distracted attention, all go to
prove that public hall is decidedly not the
place for the enjoyment of bistrionic perform
ances.
