Cabrera'S Address.

PARIS, March l6.-L'Univer publishes the
text OF an address which it says Gen. Cabrera
has issued to the Carlists and which he will
Immediately dispatch FROM Paris In this pa
per Geo. Cabrera announces his recognition

The Louisiana Case.

NEW YORK, March lG.-As most Of the pa
pers submitted to the Louisiana Committee
had been thoroughly examined on Friday and
Saturday, ADD claims OF the contestants nearly
all decided, the business Of the members, yes
terday morning consisted chiefly 10 preparing
their report. The session was strictly private.
At the close of the session Mr. Wheeler in
formed the representatives of the press that
the Committee had closed the investigation,
and made awards in the cases of the nineteen
representatives, whose claims were submitted
to their arbitration. From all the evidence
which had come into their possession as we'll as
during the previous investigation, from an ex.
animation of the election record, he said the
members of the Committee had unanimously
agreed to their award, but for reasons which
the public would appreciate it had been decid-
ed not to make the result of their deliberations
known at present. He said the award of the
Committee would be forwarded at once to the
Governor with the duplicate returns OF the
elections submitted to them for examination,
and that special session OF the House of hep
resentatiyes Of Louisiana would be convened
for the purpose of taking action IN the matter.
He could not say how soon this would be et-
fected, but be hoped that the decision, at which
they had arrived, would be approved. 1t had
been agreed upon after the most carefu exam
nation into the facts Of each particular case,
and was based upon the impartial judgment of
the members of the arbitratlng committee. tie
said he regretted very much that he could
not furnish any particulars to the press as the
circumstances of the case rendered 1t necessary
that the award should not be made public un-
til the lower House of the Louisiana LeglsIa-
ture should be prepared to take tnal action IN
the matter, 1t rested entirely with that body
to confirm the compromise which, bad been
agreed upoo, 1t is understood that Mr.. Wheel
er will present the report to the House OF Rep
resentatiyes when the special session is con-
veued for that purpose. Although nothing OF
definite character could be ascertalned from
the members of the arbitration committee, 1t
seems to be generally understood by the coun'
sci in the case that the Conservatives will gain
number Of seats through the COMPROMISE

BREAKING UP OF THE ICE.-The Cumber-
land News of yesterday says: For several
days past gradual but steady melting OF the
snow and ice 10 this vicinity has been going
on, and small streams have been pouring their
contents into the creek and river, whence they
pass off rapidly. 90 Saturday evening the
river commenced rising and 10 two or three
hours rose eight or ten feet, when, at about
nine o'clock, the ice broke An immense mass
Of ice began moving in the river, and the high
water lifted it up or to the land above the
Virginia bridge, hundred yards away from
the baDk. A portion Of the trestling at the
east end of Potomac wharf was carried away,
the side of capal boat lying at Young 8 boat
yard was stove in, and the stern-post of new
boat broken Suddenly the ice stopped. 1t
had been brought up by the Virginia bridge,
substantial stone pier. The current soon
changed towards the Virginia side and the ice
commenced going off that way and will prob
ably all pass away without doing any further
damage. The trestllog was washed from under
bridge at Georges Creek mines, 90 the Cum.
berand and Pennsylvania Railroad, on Satur-
day evening.
