Laid Down Their Arms There A Few General Facts Below. Njw York, April 17.—Th Herald’s Washington special says: | The mxt important movement | On the part of Spain in connection with the Cuban trouble will be, I am told, the issuance of an am nesty proclamation sipnlar to that which bus just resulted in tiie surrender of 25,'W insurgents in the Philippine Islands Minister de Lome recei.ed a dis patch yesterday announcing the surrender of an addi lonai number of insurgents, which makes a to tal of about 25,000 men wtiu have taken advantage oi the promise of amnesty and laid down their arms. This, in 'he opinion of Minister de i Lome, means the ending of the war in the Phillippme Islands. Several days ago the Madrio au thorities issu< d a decree setting forth that full amnesty would be granted to all those who surren dered on or before Pa m Sunday. An ex ensibn of the time has just been authorized by the Madrid au thorities, and it is expected al tte Legation here that the next fort night will set a comp.ete restoia tion of peace in Spain’s Eastern possession. Encouraged by the good results of the amnesty proposition as ap plied to the Philippines, the Madrid authorities, it is understood iu diplomatic circles, are planning a similar movement with regard to Cuba. Tne conditions prevailing in the island at the present lime are regarded by both the Spanish officials and tne administration authorities as similar to those which prevailed shortly before the close ot the Ten Years’ War. The strife al that time was brought to an end by the Zmj »n capitula tion, which granted full pirdon eOr all political crimes, lelease of propertv embargoed tor the same cause, the release oi prisoners, etc. The Spanish authorities may be o .’er sanguine, but, according to representations made at the State Department, the belief prevails among them that the conditions for the peaceful ending of the Cu ban war was never mure favorable the St. Louis Republic The old man iu art, in science, iu busi ness and in statemsnship are to day doing rather more of the world s work than their juniors.

Vicksburg. Miss., April 17— The Queeu & Crescent train dis patchers at 12 o’clock tonight re ported that Biggs Lveer, in Madi son parish, broke at 10 o’clock and that the break was one hundred feet wide in twenty minutes. The break is four and a half miles south of the delta, Louisi ana, aud one and a hall miles: above the upper end of Reed’s levee. / The news was sent to the delta at once, the oppra'or being roused out of bed and the message of warning sent along the line of the railroad eastward The levee is a very large one and has been engaging the specia l attention of the levee authprirLs for weeks, or ever since the Mis sissippi crevasse. About six hundred convicts were employed on it in addition to other laborers, and so greatly strength ened had it been made that until today it believed to be safe. Advices frem Natchez and other pofnta below Vicksburg indicate that tire supreme test in the flood •ituatiou is at band. The swift current which is rising steadily is beating against the levee with such force as to cause the gravest apprehension at many places.
