The Government monopoly on tobacco in Cuba has bceu abolished. Another revolution is progressing in Hayti. _ Additional Ftoreign Intelligence. NEW YonK, May 23.-The extracts from the European papen represent war as in? evitable. There is no confirmation of the report of a European Congress to bc hsld, or signs of mediation. Earl Clarendon, in the House of Borda, said that the English (iovernment would not engage in war di? rectly ?ir indirectly. Napoleon, in a speech at A?gureau, said, "I detest these treaties of 1815, which it is now sought to make tho basis of our foreign policy." The de? claration was considered a signal for war, and the Paris Bourse was panic-stricken. Tho London 2T?w*, commenting on this, says: "Only Napoleon can prevent war, but. unfortunately the arbiter of the Continent speaks only to sproad dismay on every ex? change, by some doubtful utterance. ' An attempt Iud been made to assassi? nate Count Bifciiiarck by the son of a ltc publican refugee, named Carl blond. The assassin fired five shots, all of which wero ineffectual. Bismarck seized the assassin and gave him into custody. Secretary Seward'* Spooch. NEW YORK, May 23.-Secretary Seward made a speech at Auburn, in this State, yesterday evening. Mr. Seward said the solicitude which pervaded thc country would perhaps justify him in addressing tho people upon political topics, candidly and patriotically. When good Union men were suspicious of the change in the views of defeated rebels and their rapport of the President's policy-bc, from tuc first, re? jected thc idea that change was accom? plished for treasonable purposes. Recon? struction is not needed, because the coun? try as constituted long since has not been destroyed. What is needed is reconcilia? tion between the Senators now acting und those who, being loyal, haye been or may be elected hereafter from the Southern States. With few exceptions, the South sra people could justly bc accepted as fel? low-citizens. The Southern States have for the last four years been merely disor? ganized. Tliey arc now organized, and uothing ia needed but conciliation. The President's plan of reconstruction is that so far and so fast as unrepresented South urn States present themselves in a loyal attitude bv representatives unquestiona? bly loyal, thev are entitled to representa? tion. This plan is practicable. No plan proposed by Congress so far is immediate? ly practicable. Ho was aware there was a diff?rence between the President and Con? gress, but hoped that difference would not cause the Union party to lose its great in- : flnence in guiding thc country to perfect I restoration. Tile Health of JOTCINUII Davl?. I WASHINGTON, .May 2:. In compliance with the President's instruction?, j>r. Cooper, Surgeon United States Army, bas reported upon the condition of Jefferson Davis. Ho reports that Mr. Davis is con? siderably cmaeiatod, tho fatty tissues hav- j ing almost disappeared, leaving his skiu ; shrivelled. His muscles are small, flaccid and very soft, and he has but little muscu? lar strength, ile is quite weak and de? bilitated, consequently his gait is uneven ' and irregular. His digestive organs at j present are in a comparatively good con ditton, but become quickly deranged nuder anything but most carefully prepared food. With a diet disagreeing with him, dyspep? tic symptoms probably make their appear? ance, followed by vertigo, severe labial and cranial neuralgia, erysepelatics, in? flammation of posterior scalp and right j side of nose, which quickly affects the ; right eye, the only sound one he now lia:*, and extends through the nasal duet into the interior nose. His nervous system itt greatly deranged, being much prostrated and excessively irritable. Sli^ln noises, which are scarcely perceptible to robust health, cause him mach pain - thc descrip- : tion of the sensation being as of ono Hay? ed and having every sentient mo ve ex- : posed to thu waves of sound. Want of ; sleep has been great, and is almost tho principal cause of bis nervous excitability. This has been pie.laced by the constant ! tramp of the creaking boots of the semi- ? nols on post around his prison-room, anti ? the relieving of the guard al the expira- | tion of every two hours, which almost in- ! variably wakens him. Mi\ Davis states I that he has scarcely enjoyed over two ! hours of unbroken sleep at one time :inee I his confinement. Means have been taken, ! by placing matting on the floors for the ! sentinels to walk on, to alleviate thia source of disturbance, hut with only par- ; tial success. His vital condition is low, and he has but little recuperative force. Should ho bc attacked by any of thc severe 1 ioruiH of disease to which the tide-water region of Virginia is subject, Sturgeon Cooper, with good reason, fears for the result ARREST OF FREEDMEN'S BUREAU OFFICERS.-The Washington Evening Star says: The statement made iu some of thc newspapers that the President has ordered the arrest of all officers of the Freedmen's Bureau engaged in cultivating lands in the South, goes a little too far. The President has directed Maj. (Jen. Howard to cause tho arrest of every officer of the Bu? reau in North Carolina who is engaged or pecuniarily inti rested in the culti? vation of plantations, and Brig. Gen. W. E. Strong has been despatched to execute the order. Judge Advocate General Holt has been instructed by the President to make out charges and specifications against these of? ficers, with a view to their trial before a court-martial. A large and enthusiastic meeting of President Johnson's supporters was held at Westminster, Maryland, on Saturday. Hon. Montgomery Blair, Senator Hendricks and General Li. H. Rousseau, of Kentucky, spoke in support of tho President's policy. Pourries OF TTTE SUPREME COLET." The Washington, correspondent of thc Chicago Tribune pretends to have ascertained that of -tho Judges of the ?Supreme Court, Messrs. Chase, Mil? ler, Swayne and Davis agree with Congress, and Messrs. Nelson, Grier, Clifford and Field agree with the President as to the position of the Southern States, and matters con? nected with reconstruction generally. The correspondent finds in this equal division of opinion the reason why the Senate is reluctant to confirm as Judge Mr. Stansbury, of Ohio, who agrees with the President, and would give him tho support of tho majority of tho Supremo Court. WILLIAMSBURG DLSTRICT, S. C. Thc KingstreeStar says: During last week, this District was visited with the heaviest fall of rain ever before experienced by tho "old? est inhabitants." Black River is fuller than it has been for ten years. ! We hear from all directions of bridges i being washed away, and tho bud con I dition of roads. The growing crops I have been materially injured, und in i some places totally destroyed. Mr. j John A. Keels was elected to the Le- : I gislature from this District, on Tues- I ! day last, without opposition. The Judiciary Committee have had j a tie vote; on Mr. Stevens' proposition j to levy duty on cotton, half believing it can bc done constitutionally. They | have also agreed to report a bill fix? ing six years us the limitation in which anitsagainst the United States can be brought before the Court of Claims. They have also agreed to report a bill increasing the United States Marshals' allowances, icc. SANTA ANNA.-Gen. Santa Anna is | still at Elizabeth port. T he Common : Council have tendered him the freedom of that city, lt is said! that, he has engaged a residence in j this city, corner of Fourteenth street | and Sixth avenue, of which he will take possession in a few days, and where he will remain until the 1st of i September.- .WT York Expr?s*. Gov. Sharkey returned to his homo in Jackson, Mississippi, from AV ash- j ington City, Tuesday last. He is represented ns being in the best of spirits ami to have no doubt that the President 's policy will be over-whelm ingly triumphant. The Hon. .Tann's M. Mason, of Virginia, was among thc passengers ! of the steamship Monravin, which arrived at Quebec on the loth inst. Mr. Mason has since gone to Mon? treal. Tho negroes had a row among themselves in a church, in Mobile, j Sunday week, which resulted ia kill? ing five and wounding a great many of them. 'I'll.- freedmen's Bureau has re- I ceivod encouraging accounts from (ten. Gregory, in Texas, of the con dition e..it.oi and sugar crops ? there. lt is asserted that one object of Austria in menacing Prussia ami Italy i is to force England t<> assent to the convention ol' aEnropeati congress. Seven horse-thieves and despera? does have been lynched to death in St. Clair County, Missouri, .luring, the past few weeks. All the bridges on the (?eorgia State Hoad between Chattanooga and 1 Dallon were washed away by (he recent heavy rains. Senator Wright, ol' New Jersey, is dead. lt is reported that the *Go- ! vernor will appoint A. .1. Cation to liil t'a.- vacancy. Tie- China, from Boston, on the 23d, to.,k away nearly two millions. : and the steamer Teneriffe three and a quarter millions of gold.
