STARTLING REPORT.
A Vessel Burned mt Sea-A Bridge Blown

HAVANA, May 10.
A French mail steamer from San Thomas
brings the following advices:
san THOMAS, May 3.
Austrian ship Beatrice, with cargo OF
coal from Newport. was burned to the waters
edge on April % at La Pointe Pietre. Loss
about 1000 pounds.
Advices from Hayti are extremely conflict
ing. Some reports say the cause OF the reb-
els is progressing favorably, others state that
the rebel force in MIragoane is on the point
of surrendering. the water supply of the town
being cut off. The true situation appears to
be that Miragoane, which is defended by
aboat 700 rebels, holds out against 6OOO gov
eminent troops. while the rest of the repub-
lie is comparatively quiet. There is a rumor
in town that ST. Marc is in arms. not for
Gen. Bszelas but in favor of Gen. Biquant.
Several noted persons at Cape Haytien have
been arrested. Six hundred fugitive inhab-
itants of Miragoane have reached Port Au
Prince on board Norwegian barque. They
state. that the rebels blew up a bridge with
dynamite, killing 200 persons and wounding
as many more. A boat with four men which
ran the blockade, arrived at Kingston, carry
ing letters assuring Gen. Bazelais that the
force in Miragoane can resist the seige for
four months. President Solemn has issued
a decree that the properties Of the political
offenders shall be held as security for all war
expenses. and the government is now mort
gaging such properties.

and burning of seven more. large store
house. together with the dock and several
tanks, boats and one hundred feet OF trestle-
work leading to Black Toms Island, was
destroyed. Tank No Z, filled with naphtha,
probably from twenty to thirty thousand bar

sey City fire department was on the ground

avail, and they were drawn off and stationed
at convenient points for the protection of the
surrounding property. The fire is now eat
ing Its way across the track of the n. j. Gem
trail railrad toward ten large tanks said to
hold $50 900 barrels, three of which are
known to contain naphtha. Small farmers at

| men, are moving household goods. The
company had besides the oil contained in the
tanks, about 250. 900 barrels of refined oil In

| is supposed the loss will reach half million.
Danger to shipping is apprehended from the

carry destruction to the shipping in that

| The burning works extend with those OF
the Eagle refinery about three fourths OF a
mile along the bay and about quarter of a
mile inland. The buildings destroyed were
situated IN the midst of the tanks, compris-

| shop. boiler room and warehouses, cooper
shop and a blacksmith shop. The tracks OF
the Pennsylvania railroad caught fire and
several rolling tanks on the rails were only
saved by having earth piled on them.

\ Generally Hopeful Outlook for New
England.
SPRINGFIELD, Mass, May II

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, May 10.
The New England Homestead will, Friday
publish a summary of 250 reports from all
sections of New England regarding the sea-
sons prospects. These reports" says the
Homestead, indicate a generally hopeful out
look for New England agriculture. With
favorable weather the hay crop will be the
largest for years. Wheat is but little grown
there was more winter rye than usual. Farm
crops and produce generally sold at good
prices and continue firm with the exception
of butter and tobacco. The tobacco marke,
has improved since the adjustment of the
tax and tariff question. The acreage will be
somewhat reduced with a larger proportion
of Havana in the Connecticut valley. A
large amount of tobacco land will be planted
to potatoes. The acreage of field corn will
be considerably increased, especially in
Maine, and more will be grown in the Con-
necticut and Housatonic valleys. Raising
sweet corn for canning purposes as well as
we'll as tomatoes, squashes, etc, is also a
growing industry, and much more is sowed
Corn tor fodder will be planted more than in
any previous year, largely to exc out dry
pastures in August"
