HAVANA, May 1o-The French mail
steamer from San Thomas brings tho follow
ing adviccs:
SAN THOMAS, May 5.-The Austrian ship
Beatrice, with u cargo of coal from Newport,
was burned to the waters edge April 20, at
Pointe Petre The loss Is about $1,000.
Advices from Hayti are extremely conflict
ing. Some report the cause Of the rebels as
progressing favorably. Others state the rebel
force in Miragoane on the point Of surrender
ing, the water supply of the town being cut Off
The true situation seems to be that Miragoane,
which is defended by about 700 rebels, holds
out against 5000 government troops, while
the rest of the republic is comparatively
quiet, although there iss rumor that the town
of st. Marc Is in arms, not for Gen. Baselais,
but in favor of Gen. Piquant. Several noted
persons at Cape Haytien have been arrested.
Six hundred fugitive inhabitants of Mira
goane have reached Port au Prince
on board Norwegian bark. They state that
the rebels blew up bridge at Mira
goane with Dynamite killing 200 persons and
wounding 200 more A boat with four men,
which ran the blockade at Miragoane, has ar
rived at Kingston, carrying letters to Gen.
Baselais assuring him the force In Miragoane
can resist the seige for four months Presi-
dent Solomon has issued a decree that the
property Of political offenders shall be held

HALIFAX, N. s., May 1O.-The interest at
taching to the Fonian scare, produced by Gov.
Archibald's receipt of startling letter of
warning from Ottawa, has been abating
somewhat, but to-day report that suspicious
vessels had been lowering about the harbor
entrance was discussed with some degree of
excitement by the public. 1t was ascertained
that there really was foundation for
the rumor, it being fact that at least
one mysterious craft, steamer had appeared
at the mouth of the bay, acting in an unusual
manner, and departing without entering the
harbor. About 3 o'clock this morning sig.
nal was hoisted ON the citadel staff for q
steamer reported to eastward. She was made
out by the signal officers at SambrO to be
brigantine rigged, but her name could not be
discovered, as she did not approach sufficiently
near the signal station. She came toward the
port from southeasterly direction, passed on
to westward, and an hour or so later returned,
and seemed undecided whether to come in the
harbor or not Then she turned about and
put to sea again, without having made any
signals. This curious action of steamer Ia
very unusual although there have previously
but not recently, been one or two similar
