SINGULAR STORIES.

OONCIRNING POLYGAMOUS PRXCTICE3. THl BVSatt WILX. CASH A. fllLD DAT -TWIK) THl OPPOSING COUNSEL TH YALÜB OP THH CONFESSIONS OF A T1HTATOR The Nw York Herald, of Tuesday, say that ths Singr will case wm resumed in the Surrogate's Court, at White Plains, Winchester eomnty, Monday. Before the proceeding commenced Surrogate Coffin announced that he hid received a preposition from counsel for the contestant Belting torth that in riew of the large number of witnesses already subpoenaed to testify in behalf of his client, he would like to have three consecutive days devoted to the hearing In the case, whica proposition be (the , surrogate) bad agreed to, prerlded it would be suitable to the counsel on the other tide. Mr. Carter and ex-Judge Porter at once concurred in the arrangement, and accordingly the case will be continued this morning and to-morrow. Surrogate Coffln then stated that In regard to the question raised at the last heariDg as to whether Mrs. Foster, the contestant, could relate conversations with the deceased, he was inclined to think that such question may be asked in a case of probate, that being a serious question, be felt, in the case under consideration. Mr. Carter contended that the statate ander which the surrogate ruled did not apply to a case where the party contesting CLAIUS TO BK THE WIDOW OK THK TESTATOR. She first has to show that she was wtat she 'alms to be, and that it is but an attempt to forge one link in the chain of proof by which she cam attack the will. The man is dead, and the contestant wants the privilege of testifying to mat ers not susceptible of contradiction by the defense. Ex Judge Porter claimed that a similar question had arisln in the Hardin will case before the surrogate of New xork, who decided to exclude conversations between the alleged wile and the testator. That she nay preve herself the widow is clear, but the question i?, csn she prove it by the confessions of a dead man who can not speak for himselt? lie held that the statute says "no claimant against the executor shall testify in his or her own hehall." Surrogate Coffin intimated that perhaps it would be a nice question to decide as to whether the contest was against the executor or the next of kin. At this stage counsel suspended further remarks, it being tacitly agreed to by both sides that that stage bad not yet arrived in the proceedings when the question must come up for final disposal bj the court. Mr. Van Pelt then announced that Instead of resuming his direct examination of Mrs. Foster he would place another witness on the stand 12 ORDER TO ESTABLISH CERTAIN FACTS brought oat by the contestant at the last hearing. William J. A. Fuller testified that he is an attorney and counselor at law in the city of New York; Is acquainted with Mrs. Foster; was engaged by her in a suit for divorce galtst Isaac M. Singer In 1SC2; that, he instituted proceedings in the case. He produced his office register containing a record of the proceedings. Mr. Carter objected, and the entries in the register were excluded, tor while the entry of a summons and complaint may be shown therefrom, the fact of their issuance and service could not be proved by the record produced. The witness continued Commenced an action for Mary Ann Singer for divoree against I. M. Singer; there was a complaint, now produced, accompanied by an affidavit of service. The admission of the documents merely showing that a suit bad been commenced, was not opposed. Accordingly a number of legal Eapers connected with the divorce suit were anded in, numbered and placed on rile by the court stenographer. Witness continued: There was an appearance in the case; an answer was also put in, but I believe it was left with the judge on a motion for alimony; this motion was made on affidavits; it was opposed snd afterward decided; have not the decision alluded to; there was a decision of order made; according to my best recollection them was an Indorsement on THK FAPKRS GRANTING ALIMONY, bat no order was made; have a paper showing why no order was made; have papers now with me embodying "stipulations between counsel." A legal coutroversey here arose as to the admissibility of papers, and when both sides had presented their views in the premises, Mr. Van Pelt said he would next offer in evidence the indorsement on the papers In regard to alimony, before submitting those relating to stipulations between counsel. The Indorsement was then read, ordering $3,000 per annumn alimony pendente life, and $750 counsel fees. The proceedings, it appeared, were had in the Supreme Court, before Justice Bernard, in May, 1861. Among the other documents offered and admitted as part of tbe case, was a copy of an agreement between the contestant and the deceased. This embraced the securing to Mrs. Singer (now Foster) a furnished house in Twenty-eighth street and $50 per week instead of the alimony named above. The house was to be given the contestant in fee simple, and the. weekly allowance, was to continue during her lifetime, so long as tbe conditions named in tbe agreement were adhered to. Thia agrsement did not deprive the contestant of the right to prosecute the divorce suit to a successful issue, and at tbe same time left her free and untrammeled as to any matrimonial contract she might be a party tola tbe future. Witness reanmed: Not long after Mrs. Singer married Mr. Foster, and then no further action was taken in the suit for divorce; the fmt information of her marriage with Mr. Foster I had from Mrs. Singer herself; can not say that I first beard of it within six weeks after the sigaing of the agreement (here a receipt for fGOO, signed by Abbott Fuller, and in favor of Mrs. Foster, for legal services on the part of the firm named, was produced and admitted as evidence;) tbere was no definite anasgemect In rag&rd to the future PROSECUTION Or THl SUIT FOR DIVORCE; had conversation in regard to how I should ontinue the suit; I stated to her that I had my doubts ot the successful issue of the reference; that as thsre had been a hand some provision made for her she ought to be content, bat she still wished to retaiame In the ease; there were no legal steps taken In tbe suit after April. 1862. Here another discussion sprang np as to the relevancy of certain circumstances stated Dy me witness, air. Ysn Pelt sayiag that he merely wished to show that Mrs. Foster's motives were perfectly pure In contracting a marriage with Foster, ahe believing at the time, on the assurance of her confidential counsel, that her divorce had been obtiined from Mr. Singer. Surrogate Coffln You want to ahow that she was properly married to Foster. Mr. Van Pelt No, Bir; I don't want to how that, but I desire to show that she was not only anxious to obtain a divorce from Blnger, but bad been told bv her attorney uh no uu uiereu up ina.t judgment when he had not, and that when in six weeks after that time she had mrried Foster, they threatened her with a prosecution for bigamy, and through this threat tbey got , back Irom her all tne provision made in the ?nt !nr ber S?Pport TlnS her absoJatelj penniless. Tüe ptPrs tfJd by htl

attorney were given up to Singer, thus rendering her oitrLaraxT powbklxm to xbsain hhr KISHTS, under a tireat that If she attempted to move in tbe matter he would have her sent to the state prison for bigamy. We wish to show that her conduct In this matter has been Irreproachable, aad that she has been the victim of a stupendous fraud on the part of the deceased. She firmly believed that she bad been divorced from Singer when she married Foster. Now, however, it appears it will here be argued that her marriage was illegal and void, but this has been her misfortune. Surrogate Coffin said that the question as to whether she tried to obtain a divorce or not could not be tried tbere, for in case she afterward snade an improper marriage with another man it would not affect btr etatus in court. The witness wss then interrogated as to tbe reasons why be did not follow np the divorce suit for Mrs. Singer, and gave it as his opinion that it would not have been to ber interest to have done so. At tbe conclusion of tbe examination the witness tried bard to be permitted to make a personal explanation, but received no encouragement from tbe surrogate or tbe counsel on beta sides. Mrs. Mary Ann Foster was again called to the stand, but her testimony mainly related to tbe public and private recognition she had received as the wile of the testator and tbe mother ot their children. It is probable that her cross-examination will occupy the time of tbe court to-day. THE SPANISH SITUATION.

ALrL QUIET ON THE POTOMAC. THE TROUBLE WITH THK HATTO HTY BCT MEEK SPANIARD ABOUT AT AN END. The Washington special to the Chicago Times of yesterday says that tbe trouble with Spain, which has been made out to be so great in Cuba'n circles, is at an end. On to-day Secretary Fish received from Minister Cushing, at Madiid, a dispatch to the effect that the Spanish government was now ready to conoede all our demands, and had given such pledges that there remained no longer any aoubt but Spain would agree to do all that was required of her. Ever einee tbe Cuban troubles began there has been one continued series of complicated diplomatic questions over tbe infringements ot rights of American citizens by tbe Spanish authorities. The main charge made against Spain was a violation ot article 7 of the treaty of 1795. This provided for the right ol search of American vessels for people who had infringed upon Spanish laws, and for tbe proper trial of American citizens who bad become subject to the penalties of Spanish law. This article especially provider that American citizens under arrest by Spanish authorities shall have tbe rigbt of a civil trial. Repeated Instances of Americans in Cuba being TRIED BT COURT-MARTIAL AND SHOT have been reported to the state department. Tbe policy of IXamilton Fish has done much to encourage this sort of thing. Spain, brought to book for atrocities performed upon our citizens, in her colonies, has offered repeated excuses. She has pleaded tbe difficulties that lie In tbe way ol obtaining justice tor her own subjects; that owing to the war in Cuba, domestic violence has a necessary accompaniment; that the United States are directly resposible for many of the cruel incidents of the war, by encouraging the insurgents. All of these subterfuges advanced by tbe cunning Spanish people have been met by Secretary Fisb, In, masterly state papers, very perfect intheir way, but still not very effectual in securing our rights. The president, as has been stated In these dispatches, has resolved, this year, to try and bring this troubled Spanish question to a head. He has, tberefore, given Mr. Fish a large quantity of backbone in the matter by spying that if he still opposed a vigorous method in settling this Spanish business, he should try and gat a mire sympathetic secretary ot "American note," sent to Minister Cushing, at state. From tbe time tbe president assumed that footing, affairs went on with great celerity. The dispatch known as the Madrid, embodied INSTRUCTIONS OF THK MOST UNYIELDING CHARACTER. The United States asked nothing but its right?, under the treaty. American citizens were to be protected, according to tbe requirements of the provisions of the law. There was some hesitation cn the ' part of Spain, in accordance with the tradition of Spanish diplomacy. To all the demands ol Cushing the reply was always "On the morrow," until it became necessary to have a showing of hands. Then came the secret orders from the navy department to the navy yards to have our war vessels placed iu readiness. It was simply a game ot blufl. Mr. Cushing had reported here that there was no danger of Spain designing war. However, troubles at home and abroad have impaired her credit. In case of war with this country she ran the danger ot being deserted by" the capitalists of Europe, and thereby becoming bankrupt. At any present prospect of a war with a foreign power, Spain trembles, and, discovering that the United States was very much In earnest, acceded to our demands that she should give pledges lor future good behavior. QQ yesterday there was a deal of uncertainty In official circles, DlSPATCHKS FLEW BACK AND FORTH. The dispatch to Qen. Sherman, tbe other Jav, in St. Louis, la now understood. lie was then told that he must hold himself In readiness for a military demonstration upon our part, In case of congress backing up the president's demand. Capt. Davit, of the navy, a very bold, determined officer, was ordered lrom here to tbe oominand of the Colorado, lying at New xork. This order created tbe grealetst . possible ex citement among navy officers here. Tbe bold and plucky ones were especially anxious for a chance to earn promotion, instead of veary waiting lor the slow promotions c a time of peace. On to-day tbe order directing Capt. Davis to report to the Colorado was revoked, upon receipt of the news lrom Madrid. It la now said that tbe president will, In his message, state that since the beginning of the Cuban troubles, never have there been such favorable relations existing between Spain and this coun try as now. This closes up one chapter of tbe Spanish business,' according to the president's idea. The next thin? attended to will be the recognition of the belligerent rights oi uuDans. THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE. PEEL STRAIT NAVIGABLE. ADMIRAL M'CLINTOCK'S OPINION OF CAPTAIN TOUNO'S ACHIEVEMENT ' THK WORLD SPARED A TEAR OF DOUBT AND ANXIETY. In a letter to the New York Herald of Thursday, dated Portsmouth, England, November 3, 1375, F. L. McCllntock writes: You call for my Idea3 upon the subject of Allen Young's recent voyage into Peel Strait, and you call for it as being yourself deeply Interested In Arctlo exploration and in all matters relating to the practicability of tbe Northwest Passage. I can have no sort ot beMtallon in complying with your wiebe?. Young was with me in the Fox when we attempted to pass down Feel Strait, In August, 1858. We were stopped by fixed ice aller a run down It ol only

twenty-five miles. Without wasting time In waiting there we attempted to pass through Bellot Strait, and although we succeeded In this yet our FURTHER PROGRESS WAS STOPPED by fixed ice across its western outlet. You will remember that my obiect was to reach King William's Island. From my position, at this western outlet of Bellot . Strait, I could see that all to the north, as far as the horizon, was covered with an unbroken ice. while all to the south was water, with the exception of the belt ot fixed ice, some three or lour miles wide, which so effectually barred my way. Subsequently sledging explorations to tbe Oreat Fish' river and all round King William's Island convinced me that we actually taw in that narrow barrier of ice the only ina pediment to our progress to and beyond King William's Island. It alo convinced me that Franklin's ships passed down Peel Strait, thus proving that seasons do occur when it is navigable. A PASSAGE FROM OCEAN TO OCEAN. And now to sum up. We know of one year (Franklin's) when Peel Strait was navigable; of another year (McClintock'e) when it was not navigable, and of a third year (Allen Young's) when it was partially navigable. In my opinion, this strait, together with its southern continuation, is probably navigable once in four of hve years, and it a steamer could then make her way through it before the close of the month ot August she would be able to complete the parage from the one ocean to the other before tbe navigable season was over. Here let me refer you to my narrative of tbe voyage of the Fox (later editions, pages 2C5-7) for my own opinions, as they were WRITTEN DOWN AT THK TIME Young's attempt to accomplish tbe Northwest Passage was as bold and skillful a one as was ever nSade. He persevered, not only after all hope seemed extinguished, but until further perseverance would have rendered his retreat Impossible; and here, at the most critical moment of his voyage, I consider that be exercised the soundest judgment and discretion in effecting his escape. Had his attempt been successful be would not only have accomplished the Northwest Passage, but would also have achieved another object which be had in view namely, that ot searching tbe shores of King William's Island, at the only season when they are free from snow, lor further rdlcs ot Sir John Franklin's expedition, which perished tbere in 1813. THE OBJECTS REALIZED. But, although baffled In the main ' objects of his voyage, other important and useful work remained for him to do, and well be has done it. He has brought us intelli

gence of our Arctic expedition ot very great interest By it we know that they bad surmounted all tbe difficulties of Baffin's bay navigation, had crossed the dreadad Melville bav with hardly a check, and that as early as July 26 tbey were within 100 miles of Smith sound, where their work of exploration was to begin, and that they were favored with an unusually good season. Bat for Allen Young in tbe Pandora, tbis good news could not have reached us for another year at the least. The country has been epired a year's doubts and mis givings, and 1 trust that Mr. loung has re ceived Irom official quarters an acknowl edgment commensurate with tbe great public service he has thus rendered at bo much personal hazard and cost. TEXAS PACIFIC RAILROAD. THE CONVENTION AT MEMPHIS ORGANIZA TION AND OPENING ADDRESSES RESOLUTIONS REPORTED. Memphis, Nov. 19. The Texas Pacific Railroad Convention met here to-day. After effecting a permanent organization, with ex-Governor Magoffin, of Kentucky, as president, the commit tee on credentials reported fall delegations present from Loalslaua, South Carolina, Missouri and Alabama. On reassembling after dinner, Uovernor Magofhu addressed tue convention for au nour, setting lortn the advantages or tbe rroposed road and Its great Importance, ie was followed by tbe Hon. Unstavoa Henry. of Tennessee, and otbers. Tbe lion. Jefferson uavis, in answer to repeated calls, addressed tbe convention. Ex-Judge Henry U. Smith, chairman of the committee on resolutions, reported tne following, pending thtTvdUcussion of wblcb the convention, at o o'clock, adjourned until 10 tomorrow morning: Tbe national government furnished tbe money to construct tbe railway conne. ting tbe country of the Pacific with the northern portion of the Uuion, which railroads, useful and beneficial to the whole Union, are peculiarly and in a large degree exclusively beneficial to the statts of the North, and have tbe tendency or exlsilng alone to tbe prejudice of tbe Interests of the statei o ;thefvutb. Tbe people of the North were unable without government aid to construct the Northern railway. Much lets are tue fckutbern people able now or, to far as tbe distant future can be foreseen, will tbey b able without government aid to construct a railway with the necessary connection which shall link tbelr destinies and interests more close'y with the country on the 1'acltlc coast, as well as wltb tbe whole country of the Union. We have borne and will continue cheerfully to bear according to tbe measure of our ability, the common resume of the debt created to construct tbe RAILWATS OP THE NATION. In view of these considerations, and others not now neceseary to state, the people of the South appeal to their fellow-countrymen North and to the government of the Union created by the Common blood and treasure of our forefathers, which Is dear to our hearts, and we hope will continue so to be, to bestow npn the people of South such favor and substantial aid as will enable them to construct a railway with suitable connections, wblcb shall unite us on one side with thegrett country of the West, and on the other w.th he rich and prosperous and powerful conn by of the North, and in view of this xeauny uo we mane the appeal, fully assured that aid may be bestowed In such a man ner as will not incur the debt of the government. To thatfend we resolve that we ask the congress of the United States to grant tbe credit of tbe national union to aid us to acorn pllsh tbe construction of tbe Texas & Pacific railway from its eastern terminus atchreveport, In Louisiana, to tbe co ant of the Pacific at Ban 1)1 eo. or other suitable place on that coast, and alo to aia ana accompiisn tne construction or such railways as will connect the Kantern terminus with the city or Memphis, and Vicksburg and New Orleaas, wltb stich conditions ana provisions as will effectually secure to the lines of roads leading to those cities from the KasUrn terminus of tbe Texas A Pacific railway and aleng tbe line ot that railway the same equality as to themselves as to all other railway connections and intersections In tbe advautages of facilitating tbe transportation of freight and psssengers, and for all uses to which the Texas A Pacific railroad and Its branches may or can be spp led, and with provisions and conditions that shall compel the construction of tbe road con tinuously from tbe point of its present completion In Texas to its western terminus on tbe Pacific coast: and. further, resolved. Ihat the res ident of tbe convention appoint a committee of ten peraons, wno snan oe charged with the duty and power to tak such measures as mav harealter be proper to promote tbe object of tne joreguing resolutions. Over ten years ago a negro called upon a claim agent at Detroit, and filed a slalm against the governmeat for bounty and back pay for seryicos in the navy during the re belllon. The papers in tbe case were duly made out and sent to Washington, and a fa vorable answer was received, but the man vanished mysteriously and wss not again heard of till last Saturday, when be walked inte the office of the claim agent and sur prised him bv inqairlng, "Is you got dat money yet?" lie explained matters by stating that shortly alter leaving Detroit, ten years ago, he was arrested in Toronto for highway robbery, and bad been confined In Kingston penitentiary ever tince. ,
