THE HAYTIEN MINISTER and wife, General
and Madame Tate were invited to the Diplo-
matte dinner of the President on Wednesday
next, but since then Gen. Tate has received in
formation that his chief, Salnave, is shot and
that he is banished. He has consequently writ
ten the President a note in French, in which he
courteously declines the invitation. The note
is couched in language of sympathy and sensi-
bility calculated to give high opinion of the
writer.

PRESIDENT GRANT and his daughter Nellie
occupied private box at Wallis Opera House
last night, and both of them seemed greatly in
terested in Boucicaults last dramatic produc-
ton "Mercy Dodd'as performed by Miss Laura
Keene and company. Some of the scenes are
very affecting. The play will be withdrawn
after this evening, as Miss Keene announces
sour American Cousin" for Monday night; the
same play which was performed on the night of
the assassination of President Lincoln, Miss
Keene and Harry Hawk sustaining the same
characters as played by them on that eventful
night.

As the season advances trade improves but has no
vet reached the point which merchants would fam see
it. The reason of this is obviouspanters are unWll
ling to bring in their cotton when the price is SO unre
muneratiyc Still the merchants think 1t rather marc
that parties whom they advanced should hold oack
at such pressing time-seemng to forget that mer-
chants credit is great extent his capital and to
lose it operates irreparable injury to him.
There are of course, diverse opinions as to the fu-
tnre price of cotton Some predict that Immediately
after peace in Europe will go up from to cents and
then fall back, whilst others think these advanced
prices will be maintained. The New York Chronicle
OF the 22d October says:
The past week has witnessed considerable advance
in prices and improvement in the of the cotton
market with increased activity. This has been due to
better feeling and better prices at Liverpool based
upon a current belief that the continental war would

are now very low, and not likely TO go much lower

that the ruling have little for profit to the
planter and hence il is believed that after the first mill

position to sell and consequently somewhat higher rates
obtained
