In an janswering statement made by Sophia V. Lawler, the jeldest daughter, the latter says that pending the divorce jsuit she acted as housekeeper for her father and had ithe care of the younger children; that her mother as- jsumes to be a Catholic, but is not a good one; that the jmother has no affection for the children; that the pres- ent proceedings haye been instituted through spite; at the children are well taken caro of in her chargo jand that they desire to remain with her, After some iconference between the counsel, Mr. John H.

Brooke appearing for the complainant and Mr. Wilkes being represented by Mr. Briggs. Some delay was caused by the non-appear- ance of witnesses who had been summoned. Mr. Brooke offered in evidence two letters, one written by William R. Whitaker, formerly an internal revenue collector in New Orleans, the other by Hon. Charles Smith, ex-United States Senator, both testifying to Mr. Lathain’s good character and efliciency as an employ6. They were objected to by the opposition counsel as ir- relevant.

Complete Success of the Recent Ex- periments at Woolwich. THE ARTILLERY OF THE FUTURE. Heavy Projectiles and Iron-Clads—The Lesson of the Vanguard Disaster. — Lospor, Sept. 25, 1875. There can be no doubt that the crucial test of great guns for harbor defence against iron-clads is near at hand, It will very soon be definitely settled whether iron vessels can be made invulnerable to heavy projec- tiles, The accident of the Iron Duke running down the Vanguard demonstrated in a very practical way the utility of the ram asa weapon of offence, but it sadly shook the theories advanced in regard to the strength of resistance of an iron-clad’s sides when tho ques, tion of defence was Involved. The experiments at Woolwich yesterday sMced to show that England is in possession of the most power- ful piece of artillery in the world, The great eighty-one , ton gun, which for more than fifteen months has been constructing at the Woolwich Arsenal, was tested in the presence of alarge number of government officials, among whom were General Campbell, R. A., Director of Artillery and Stores; Colonel Younghusband, R. A., Superintendent Royal Gun Factories; Major Maitland, R. A., Assistant Superintendent; Mr, R. S, Fraser, Deputy Assistant Superintendent; Colonel Field, Royal Carriage Department; Major W. H. Noble, R. A., Sec- retary to the Experimental Committee, and General D’Aguilar, Commandant of the Garrison. THY ARTILLERY OF THE FUTURE, The trials have been looked forward to with unusual interest by many students of the art of war, as it was thought that this gun would indicate the style of the artillery which must be used in the future, It may be fairly stated that the achievements of the new piece of ordnance exceeded anything that had been anticl- pated, From the beginning to the end the utmost in- terest was manifested by all present, and the beautifu: autumn day greatly added to the general pleasure of the occasion. The huge gun woke,up the echoes of the Kentish hills, and the huge volume of sound rever- berated over the Thames and across the marshes toward Greenwich. Sailors on the vessels anchored off Gravesend mounted the yards tg see the flame and smoke of the explosion. “a ma Guy.” The eighty-one ton gun, so called, weighs at the present time very nearly eighty-two tons; but this weight will ultimately be reduced to about eighty-one tons after it has undergone a final process of boring, which awaits it. The gun consists of an inner tube of Firth’s steel, having a boro 24 feet in length, witha primary calibre of 14's inches. It is rifled with 11 grooves of the usual Woolwich pattern—that is, hav- ing a gaining twist from 0 to 1 in S5calibres, The Dore will be increased to 18 inches after it has undet gone a series of trials with its present diameter of 14 inches. The steel tube will then have a mean thick: ness of 4 inches, The cascable is of steel, 26 inches in length and 204 inches in diameter, aud is screwed into the inner coil close home to the etecl tube. On the outside of the breech end of the steo! tube is the inner coll, which is 10.5 inches thick, and outside this coil is shrunk on the outer or trunnion coil, which is 13.5 inches thick, and brings the outside diameter of the gun at the breech end to six feet. ‘The trunnions are sixteen inches in diameter and ten inches in length. The front odge of the trunnion coil overlaps another coil known a3 the 1 B coil, which extends backward over the inner coil, The diambier of the gun at the point where the trunnion coil terminates is 54.5 sinches, and at the oint where the 1 B coil terminates it is 37.5 inches, ‘rom that point the fourth coil extends forward for an external distance of 56.43 inches, where the outer diameter is further reduced to 22.8 inches- The filth, or muzzle coil extends forward 87.7 inches, the external diameter at the muzzle being 25 inches, and the ex- treme length over all being 26 feet 9 inches, Each of the coils 1s arranged so as to overlap and underlie, or, in other words, to lock into the coil immediately ‘pre: ceding it, thus rendering the built-up structure as homogencous as possible. ‘THE GUN CARRIAGE, The gun is mounted for prvof on a sleigh or carriage. composed mainly o! iron—portions of the checks only being of wood—and cai on two six-wheeled bogie trucks. Tho bogies are pivoted under the sleigh by cen. tro pins working in square iron blocks, having springs fore and aft of each block. ‘These’ springs consist of plates of vulcanized indiarubber alternating with plates of steel; similar fe are placed underneath and fore and aft of the trunnion hearings. The sleigh was designed by Mr. H, Butler, of the Royal Carriage Department, and from iis behavior yesterday the department has reason to take credit for it, seeing that the carriage was turned out in a re- markably short time. The carriage weighs about forty tous, and with its eighty-two ton burden is placed on a pair of rails, Jaid on an incline about thirty-five yards long, commencing at one in forty and terminat- ing in a steeper gradient, “The incline rises to the rear of the gun, so as to check the recoil on firing, ‘The firing point is 200 feet from the butt, which is com- os of a bank of sand about 60 feet thick, with The 5 feet of the powder used on the occasion was 1 pebble powder, but it does not follow that this will eventually be adopted for this gun. Itis quite possible that a different powder will Le adopted tor each calibre in the service, ‘THY FIRST ROUND was fired at twenty minutes past eleven A. M., with powder charge ot 170 pounds, and ‘a tlat-headed’ proje tle weighing 1,268 pounds, plus the gas check, which weighed fifteen pounds. The gas check is a gun metal disk, with a thickened rim, and it is screwed on to the base of the shot, the explosion of the powder causing it to expand and lit into the grooves of the gun, and thus to prevent the erosion which commonly occurs fn rifled guns from the action of the gases in the grooves, The an was dired by electricity, the report of the discharge Boiug jess heavy than was generally expected. On ex- amining the gun after firmg it was found to bave had a recoil of thirty feet up the incline. The maximum earth backing to rear, play of the trunnion and bogie springs had been three-tenths of an inch vertically and one and aquarter inches horizontally. ‘The muzzle yelocity (corrected), as taken by Major Noble, was 1,393 feet per second, the pressure in the powder chamber, as recorded by the crusher gauge, being 24.2 tons per square inch, and that at the base ot the pro- jectile, as recorded by another erusher gauge, 19.4 tons per square inch, The projectile ploughed a’ deep tur- row in the sand, and was recovered near the surface, forty-five feet {rom the face of the bank, The gas check had taken well to the grooves, but was crumpled back by the resistance of the sand. Upon the discharge of the guna large and very perfect smoke ring left the muzzle directly after the projectile and shot up nearly verticully into the air, retaining its form and continuing its rapid flight for about a minute, causing a sustained noise very similar to that of a Small shell passing through the air, In attempting to withdraw the crusher gange froin the powder chamber, some delay was occa- stoned by the extracting rod coming apurt in the gun. Eventually a laborer of medium size, who was as ing to work the gun, and whose name is Kiddle, volun- teered to crawl into the gun and attach a rope to the gauge extractor. This he succeeded in doing, but not until he had been in the gun five times, owing to the rope slipping. It {8 to his credit that he accom- plished it, for the gases remaining in the bore told visibly upon his eyes and disturbed his breathing for awhile, The crusher gauge having been exiracted, the gun was loaded with a powder charge of 190 pounds and a _ projec- tile weighing 1,259 pounds. The gun 13 loaded from a travelling crane, the powder Leg 3 raised to the muzzle in acopper cradle and rammed home with a loading rod twenty-seven feet long and formed of three-inch diameter steel shaiting, with a gun metal head. The shot ig also raised by the crane, and each projectile took about a dozen men to push it well home to the powder, THR SECOND ROUND was fired at thirty-five minutes after twelve, and the ro- sult was a recoil of thirty-two feet up the incline and a maximum vertical play of the springs of three-tonths of an inch, with a maximum horizontal travel of one and thr ‘The muzzle velocity was 1,428 feet per second, the presstire in the powder cham- ber 22.3 tons per square inch, and that on the shot 18,2 tons per square inch, The shot had penetrated forty feet into the sand and was found at a depth of six feet from the surlace, THR THIRD ROUND was fired at thirty-five minutes past one—aver- age about one hour cach thus far—with @ projectile weighing 1,258 pounds aud 210 pounds of powder, The redoil was thirty-six feet, the maximum yertical play of springs 3-10ths of an inch and the maximum horizontal travel 1}; Inches. The muzzle volovity was 1,475 feet, the pressure in the powdor chamber being 24.8 tons per inch, and that on the base of the shot 19.8 tons, The shot penetrated the sand for a distance of 40 feet, and at a depth of 6 feet from the surface, being, in fact, stopped by shot No, 2, which had not been dislodged before round No, 3 was fired. After the third round tho visitors retired to luncheon, at the invitation of the leading officials of the Royal Gun Factories. THE FOURTH ROUND was fired at 3:25, with 220 pounds of powdor and a shot woighing 1,254 pounds, The recoil was increased to 33 feet Linch, the maximum vertical play of the springs being three-quarters of an inch, antl the horizontal travel 18-10 inch, The muzzle velocity was 1,503 feet por sec- ond; the pressure in the powder chamber of the gun, 22.2 tons, and that on the base of tho shot 21.4 tons per square inch. .The shot penetrated 36 fect into the sand at a depth of 5 feet from the suriace, THE PLETH ROUND was fired at 4:15 with 230 pounds of powder and a 1,260 was being absorbed by the weight. The maximum vertical of the springs was three-quariers of an inch, the horizontal travel 1 8-10 inch, The muzzle velocity was 1,550 per second, the in the chamber 29.6 tons and that on the shot .8 tons per square inch. The shot penetrated 43 feet into the sand at a depth of 6 feet from the surface. In this round a number of burning pebbles of powder were propelled from the gun over the butts, indicating that the 230 pound charge was rather more than the gun could consume, ‘THE FINAL SHOT for the day was fired at five minttes to five with 240 pounds of powder and a projectile weighing 1,258 pounds. recoil was this time brought up to 38 feet 2 inches, tho vertical and horizontal play of the ree being the same as in the previous round—viz., three-fourths of an inch and 1 8-10 inch respec- tively, The muzzle velocity, too, was the same as in the last round—1,550 feet, ‘The pressure im the gas chamber was 27.3 tons per square inch; that on the base of the shot bad not been taken at the time - visitors left the proof ranges, rhe shot penetrated the sand toa distance of 47 fect at a depth of 6 feet from the surface, Burning pebbies of powder were again projected forward with the shot. This concluded the first part of the test of the eighty- one ton gin—a weapon whose construction has met with severe criticism, and whose manufaeture has re- quired the best and latest appliances, After each discharge the gun was critically éxaiined, and on no occasion was the slightest alteration in any of tho joints observable, ‘The velocities _ exhibited by the gun amazed everybody, The ‘‘en- ergy’ imparted to the shot’ at the fifth round rose to the enormous pitch of 20,400 foot tons, or about the estimated force with which’ the prow of the Iron Duke encountered the Vanguard. This gun is intended for the Inflexible, which 18 to carry four of these guns, the second of which. is now constructing. A prominent engineer yesterday stated, on the ground, that before long England will possess'a 160 ton gun firing a one ton shot, which at one mile range can tear the strongest iron-clad all to pieces, JUVENILE REFORMATORIES. A JUDICIAL DEMAND FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF REFORM SCHOOLS IN NEW JERSEY. Amomorable scene was witnessed in the Court of Quarter Sessions at Jersey City yesterday, Judge Hoff man, in passing sentence on Thomas McDonough, who was sent to State Prison for eighteen months, made the following remarks:—There is a class of criminals to which the Court has given serious attention, It isa diMcult “matter, in dealing with this class, for the Court to determme what 1s demanded by the interests of the community and the Proper administration of the law. The Court refers to those who step from innocence into crime unac- countably and ouly in a single instance; in other words, those who are not professional criminals, who are not hardened in crime, whose souls are unstained eave with the one transgressiom ‘The State has pro- vided for reform schools for boys and an industrial hool for girls; but sixteen years is the age limited for admission to these institutions, so that the Court is not disposed to send such crimi- nals either to the Penitentiary or State Prison, For myself I have little confidence tn those in- stitutions as places of reformation, Association with hardened criminals must necessarily injure materially, if it does not entirely ruin morally, the life of the per- sons referred to. Then the stain of Staté Prison, that cannot be wiped out during life, must im a majority of cases lead to a life of’ crime, The State Prison and Penitentiary are essentially places of punishment, and properly so. Now, — what can be done? If we let sueh vices go without punish. ment we will open wide the doors to the infraction of the law, It will not be in the line of the full and just discharge of duty, and the result will be confinement in the State Prison or Penitentiary, with the probability of ruin to the person sentenced staring the Court in tho face. A different place should be provided by the State, where punishment and reformation should go together; where no stain could be made that a correct life would not completely wipe out;. one of work, not of degradation; one where the prisoner is put on his or her honor} Where the bad will be eradicated and the good devel- oped ‘Tne foregoing remarks are the more significant from the fact that the State Reform School at Jamesburg is already crowded, aud that several boys are awaiting trial during the present term of court, QUARANTINING A DEPUTY MARSHAL, On Thursday a United States Deputy Marshal took a a boat from Staten Island and boarded the Nova Scotia schooner Southern Home at Quarantine, for the pur- pose of libelling her for damages inflicted by a recent collision off Sandy Hook Lightship with the Bremen bark Bremen. Some of Health Officer Vanderpoel’s men saw tho intruder, and told him that he must not leave tho yessel, ' as he was quarantined, and the unfortunate Marshal had to resign himself to the orders of the Health Officer and remain on the vessel, running the risk of catching eliow Jack.”’ It is reported that his mission was to libe! the Nova Scotian schooner on behalf of Messrs, Funch, Edye & Co., the agents of the Bremen, which was damaged to the extent of $5,000. When the colli- sion occurred all on the schooner save two were sick with yellow fever, the steward having died on the pas- sage.” The Southern Home is loaded with coffee, wood, &e., and comes from St, Domingo City, She will prob- ably be allowed to come up to the city ere long.
