[The followinv, appeared in the Third Edition of "The Sun" of last evening] : ALDERSHOT, Friday. The court assembled at a quarter past 11 o'clock this morning, and immediately adjourned for deliberation. Mr. Vernon Harcourt, Mr. Waller, and the legal advisers of Colonel Crawley, being requested to attend. After a short space of time, Lieutenant and Adjutant Fil zsimous was recalled for cross-examination. --„ Colonel Crawley—Do I understand you to state that, however much I might have been enraged against Sergeant. Major Lilley, the order I gave you on the 26th of April did, in effect, cause no annoyance to Sergeant Major Lilley in the manner of posting the sentries? Witness—No, I consider the manner in which the sen tries were posted did not annoy him. Colonel Crawley—Do you consider that the giving of such an order showed at the time I gave it that I had any desire to cause annoyance to Sergeant Major Lilley in xe spect to the manner of posting the sentries ? Witness—l should say not. Colonel Crawley—Did you know what was the object of placing the sergeant majors under arrest? Witness—l was told by Colonel Crawley that the reason for putting them under arrest was because they were in con spiracy against him. Colonel Crawley—The question was, what was the object, not what was the reason. --- Witness—l did not know then, but I have heard subse quently. Colonel Crawley—Was the object to prevent them from communicating with any one outside ? Witness—l have said that I did not know the object. Colonel Crawley—Were your instructions from me to prevent them from communicating with any ono outside ? Witness—Yes. Colonel Crawley—Do you consider that it is the duty of an adjutant in the execution of such an order I gave you on the 26th of April to see the sentries posted himself ? Witness—No. I inspected them. I have never under stood it to be the duty of an adjutant to post the sentries himself. Colonel Crawley--•I did not ask whether you posted them, but whether it was your duty to see them posted. Witness —I consider it is the duty of an adjutant to see the place where the sentries are posted, and to ascertain whether they are acquainted with their orders after they are posted. Colonel Crawley—Do you not consider that it was your duty as adjutant to see the sentries posted in the case of Sergeant Major Lilley, who was your own immediate as sistant in carrying on the duties of the regiment ? Witness—l consider that it was my duty to see the place where the sentries were posted. I did not consider it my daty to post the sentries myself. Colonel Crawley—Must not the manner of posting the sentries in order to prevent them from communicating with persons outside depend upon the quarters in which the prisoners were confined ? Witness —Decidedly. Colonel Crawley—And in that respect must not the posi tion of the sentries depend on the discretion of the person who from time to time is to see that order carried out? Witness—l should say so. Colonel Crawley—Who posted the sentries in the first instance ? Witness—l gave the order to the regimental sergeant major. I cannot say who was the non-commissioned officer l r ? Witness—l who posted them, • Colonel Crawley—Were the or d ers you gave written or verbal gave the orders in writing on the 26th April, in the evening I received them from the commanding officer. Colonel Crawley—Were those orders a copy of the orders you put in on your examination in chief ? Witness—The sergeant major wrote down the order given to me by my commanding officer. Colonel Crawley—Then you did not give orders to the sergeant major yourself ? Witness—Not in my own hand writing, but he copied out in my presence from the commanding officer's original order, Colonel Crawley—Were the orders he took down in wr ingan exact copy of the order I gave to you ? Witness—They were. Colonel Crawley—Was there anything said in my ori ginal order as to where the sentries were to be posted ? Witness—l think it states that they were to be posted over the quarters of each prisoner. Colonel Crawley—Dees that order state that the sentries were to be posted inside or outside the quarters. Witness—l understood it to mean that they were to be posted outside. Colonel Crawley—l must press for an answer. Colout' Sir A. Horsford (€lficial prosecutor)—lf the wit ness is to ba pressed upon a document that is before the Court, I submit he may be all9wed to see it. The President —Certainly. Witness (having examined the document)—lt does not mention the word inside or outside, but says over the quar ters, which I understood to mean outside. Colonel Crawley—Did you ask me whether the sentry was to be placed outside or inside the quarters when I first gave you the order? Witness—l do not recollect having asked the question. Colonel Crawley—Will you undertake to say that you did not ask the question, and that I said the sentries were to be posted outside ? Witness—l cannot undertake to state. I can only say I don't recollect it. Colonel Crawley--At what o'clock did you visit the sen• tries for the first tiros on that day? Witness—l have not the slightest recollection what the time was. Colonel Crawley—Did you visit the first sentry who was sent down on that occasion ? Witness—l cannot rom6mber. Colonel Crawley—Was it not in your opinion the duty of the adjutant in the case of so serious an arrest to visit the sentry in the execution of it ? Witness—ln my opinion the adjutant should visit the sentry as soon as he has time to do so. As soon as he is not otherwise officially occupied. Col. Crawley—Were you in any way officially occupied that evening in matters sufficiently important to warrant your delaying the performance of so serious a duty, and, if so, state what that occupation was ? Witness—l do not remember how I was occupied. I believe that as soon as I was unoccupied I visited the sentries. Colonel Crawley—Were you not occupied at mess after the sentries were posted and before you visited them ? Witness—l do not recollect that I went to mess that night. I should think I visited them before I went to mess. Colonel Crawley—At what hour was the order taken by Sergeant Cotton ? Witness—The time I cannot state. I believe it was be fore dark. Colonel Crawley—How does it happen that your memory is much less retentive as to these matters than as to those of which you have spoken in so much detail in your exa mination in chief ? Witness—The matters I spoke of in more detail in my examination in chief, were matters I had written down in the letter I wished to write to the commander in chief, and of which I had frequently spoken, sothat tl oy wore impressed more upon my mind. Colonel Crawley—How long a period has elapsed since the occurrence of these events, and the date of your letter to the commander in chief ? Witness—About six months. Colonel Crawley--Had you frequently spoken about these matters before your letter to the commander in chief ; if so, to whom ? Witness—l think I have spoken frequently about them to several officers in the regiment. Colonel Crawley —T o whom ? 'Witness—l think I have spoken of it before my letter to the Commander in Chief to numbers of officers in the regi ment. Colonel Crawley —When you visited the sentries for the first time, who was the sentry you found over Sergeant Major Lilley and the quartermaster sergeants ? Witness—l do not remember in the least. Colonel Crawley —Where was he standing? Witness—My recollection of the first sentry I visited is that he was standing in the front verandah of the house. Colonel Crawley—Was that position in your opinion in accordance with the orders you had received from me? Witness—l should say so, and I should add that I believe the sentry had frequent orders to go round the house to the back door. Colonel Crawley—now do yeu know that he had such an order ? Witness—lt is my recollection of the orders he gave over to me. Colonel Crawley—Were those the orders given over to you by the first sentry you saw ? Witness—l cannot state. Colonel Crawley--I understand you to state that you do not know what were the orders given over to you by the first witness you saw ? Witness—l recollect the orders that were given over to me, or the substance at least of them, but I do not say whether that order was subsequently given to the sentry to move round to the rear of the house on the first day or the second. It is now more than a year and a half ago since the events occurred, and it is very difficult to recollect the particulars. Col. Crawley—You have already stated that the only orders Sergeant Major Cotton received from me was an exact copy of my original order. See if there is anything in that order to the effect you have now stated ? Witness—Not in the exact words, but it is mentioned that the sentry should not allow any communication with the prisoner, and therefore I thought it necessary that the sentry should walk round occasionally to the rear of the house. Colonel Crawley—lf the sentry had any additional orders beyond the copy of my orders, by whom were they given ? Witness—l don't consider he had any additional orders. The order for him to go to the rear of the building occa sionally was only to have the commanding officer's orders carried out. Colonel Crawley—Who was to exercise a discretion as to the position of the sentries in carrying out my order, that the prisoner should not have communication with any one outside ? Witness—l cannot see that there was anything discre tionary in it, as the order was that there should be no com munication between the prisoner and persons outside. If there was any discretion it must be that of the sentry as to what part of the outside of the building he should stand. Colonel Crawley—Then I understand that in your opinion the position of the sentry over Sergeant Major Lilley was to bo at tbo discretion of the sentry. Is that your opinion as an officer who at that time was an adjutant in the In niskilling Dragoons ? Witness—lt is, my opinion that in order that the sentry should not allow any one to hold communication with the prisoner, he should occasionally go round to the rear of the house to see that no one got in by the back door. Colonel Crawley said that answer wax unsatisfactory, and repeated the question. Witness—There was no order as to the time the sentry should go and see the rear of the house. Of course the man was posted in one particular place in front. Colonel Crawley—Was the order for Sergeant Major Luley to take exercise given a long time or a short time after the arrest ? Witness—To the best of my recollection it was given a short time after he was placed under arrest. Colonel Crawley—How long a time ? Witness—l cannot state the time without looking at the order which was received for it, on which, I think, there is a date. Colonel Crawley--Do you consider one of the hardships of Sergeant Major Lilley's arrest was the delay in my giving the order for him to take exercise ? Witness—No. I think the commanding officer gave an order that he might take exercise when it was brought to his notice that he required it. Colonel Crawley—lf the desirableness of such exercise had been brought to my notice earlier by you or any other person, do you believe I should have given the order earlier? Witness —If it had been brought to the notice of the commanding officer by me, I cannot say—it by the medical officer, I should say it would. Colonel Crawley—During the ti me y ou were a dj u t an t did you ever ask any indulgence for Sergeant Major Lilley which was refused by me ? Witness—No. I never recollect ever having asked for any indulgence for him whatever. Colonel Crawley—You have spoken of a conversation alleged to have taken place in the orderly room of the bar racks. I must ask you, as near as you can, to fix the date of that conversation ? Witness—The date I cannot say, but it was before the 15th of May. Colonel Crawley—Was it before or after the arrest of Corporal Blake ? Witness—l cannot state positively. lam of opinion it was before. do you state that it must h ave Colonel Crawley—Why been before the 15th of May ? Witness—For on the 15th of May I went on the sick list. Colonel Crawley asked that the evidence given by the witness on the second day of the court martial should be read to him. It was read, and it appeared that the witness stated before the sth of May an order was given th a t th e sentries were to be placed inside Sergeant Major Lilley's quarters. Colonel Crawley—Does it not follow, from the th reasons you then alleged for fixing that date of the conversation that it was before the da te of the commission of the offence' for which that non-commissioned officer was tried ? Wit ness —l should say so. Until after I had given that answer I was not aware that it was on the Ist of May that Corporal Blake had been placed under arrest. I was of opinion that it was on the let or 2d of that month. More previous evidence given by Lieut.Fitzsimonshaving been read, Col. Crawley said--I ask you to reconcile your uncer tainty of Sergeant Major Cotton being present with the statement that the conversation with ino about Sergeant Major Lilley being a married man arose out of a remark made by Sergeant Major Cotton. Witness-4 have stated that Ido not know whether Sergeant Major Cotton was in the room when ho received the order to place the sentries so that they should not lose sight of the prisoner night or day, but that that morning Sergeant Major Cotton was there I know. I recollect that he remarked to the commanding officer that Sergeant Major Lilley was a married man. Col. Crawley—You have said in your examination in chief that you are not certain whether Sergeant Major Cotton was in the room when he made the remark on which the conversation arose. Did he make it from out. side the room? Witness—No. Colonel Crawley—lf you are not certain whether Ser i geaut Major Cotton was inside or outside the room, are you not equally uncertain whether he made the remark at all ? Witness—l recollect perfectly well the remark being made, and what impressed it more on my memory is that the commanding officer got into a great rage with him for making the remark, and made him leave the orderly room for saying it. Colonel Crawley—Do I understand you to say that after the conversation you allege to have taken place in the orderly room, I gave you another order in writing with regard to the arrest of the sergeant major. Witness —No. Colonel Crawley—l believe your evidence in chief was this : "I laid a written order for the posting of sentries before him (myself) and he added one or two words in his own handwriting." Do you adhere to that statement ? Witness—l do. Colonel Crawley—Was the order I first gave you on the 26th of April entered in the regimental order book and signed by you? Witness —I think it was entered as a regimental morning order. Colonel Crawley—Look at the order book and see whether that is the first entry. Witness—Yes. I believe it to be the order. The order was read—That Colonel Crawley ordered a close arrest, and providing that the non-commissioned officers should have no communication with persons out side, at the same time suspending the prisoners. It was was signed by Lieutenant Fitzsimons. Sir A. Horsford requested the Court to make a note that the regimental order book had been taken by the prisoner in his defence. The application was acceded to. Colonel Crawley—Now take the regimental order book and point out the second order written and signed by you in reference to the arrest of the sergeant and the posting of the sentries. Witness—l know of no seoond order being entered in reference to the posting of the sentries. The first order was made by direction of Colonel Crawley. Colonel Crawley—After the alleged second order who was the first sentry who saw Sergeant Major Lilley rub the liniment on Mrs. Lilley's chest ? Witness -1 am not aware. I heard it remarked to my commanding officer, as I heard it also myself. Colonel Crawley—That is no answer to my question. The President —Put it in another shape. Colonel Crawley—Did any sentry ever see that operation performed to your knowledge ? Wi tness —l have never inquired about it from any sentry, nor do I know, Colonel Crawley—Then, as far as you know, the second order did not lead to the indecency you anticipated, and which you have stated in your evidence in chief ? Witness —I should like to know what indecency is re ferred to which I stated in my evidence in chief ? Colonel Crawley (reading)—" I also remarked that Mrs. and that her husband w as o bliged to rub lijiniiiimeYenwtaos si nh e e k ; chest every day." What is the drift and tendency of that remark ? Was it not that the sentry would see that operation, and that Mrs. Lilley would thereby be subjected to indignity ? Witness—Yes; and it was my idea that when the com manding officer knew it he would not allow the indignity to be repeated and not allow the sentry to be inside as the order was given. Colonel Crawley—Did Mrs. Lilley ever suffer the incon venience you anticipated ? Witness-1 do not know. I have heard it stated. Colonel Crawley—l must repeat my question ? Witness—What inconvenience, Colonel Crawley—ln having the liniment rubbed into her chest while a sentry was present ? Witness—As I have never seen it, I cannot say. Colonel Crawley—On your oath, do you or do you not believe that she did ? Witness—On my oath I cannot say. Colonel Crawley—lt has been stated in Parliament that "Mrs. Lilley was compelled to perform all the functions of nature in the presence of a sentry. ,, To your knowledge is that true or false ? great concern for M rs .

Witness—l think I have heard it stated that they were at the door or inside the bedroom. Colonel Crawley—May I assume that if such statements had been made, that Mrs. Lilley had to perform the func tions of nature in the presence of a sentry, you would have indignantly denied them f Witness —I should not have:denied them, not knowing whether it had occurred or not. Colonel Crawley—T hen that is what you consider the duty of an officer in such a case towards a regiment of which he was a member ? Witness—l cannot refute that which Ido not know. Colonel Crawley—Where did Mrs. Lilley sleep ? Witness—l have seen the room pointed out on the model, but I do not know myself, not having gone into the build. ing since the arrest. Colonel Crawley—After this alleged conversation was this second order immediately acted upon ? Witness —To the best of my recollection it was immediately acted upon, as I think the commanding order told the acting regimental sergeant to act upon it immediately, Colonel Crawley—Did you go to see the first sentry posted after the second order you have mentioned. Witness—l really cannot say that I inspected the first sentry or not, but I should say 1 did, because I know that Col. Crawley was very strict about his orders being carried out on that point. Colonel Crawley—Who was the first sentry you saw, and where did you find him posted ?_Witness—l don't recollect who he was. Colonel Crawley—Where was he posted ? Witness —The first time I recollect visiting the gentry in the bungalow he came to the back door to me. I had not gone into Sergeant Major Lilley's quarters, as 1 knew Mrs. Lilley was sick, and I did not like to inconvenience her. Sometimes the door at the back was closed when I visited the sentry, and he came and opened it. Colonel Crawley—NVhere was the sentry posted after the second order? Witness —The sentry was posted inside the quarters. Ile could not have been posted in any particu lar place, as his order was not to lose sight of the sergeant major night or day, and consequently was obliged to follow him from one room to another. Colonel Crawley—When the sergeant major went to the water-closet, or to the rear as soldiers call it, was the sentry bound to follow him, or insist that the door should remain open, or was it sufficient for him to know that he was there, and could not escape ? NVitness—The sentry was not to follow him to the water closet. That was the only exception to the order. Colonel Crawley—Could a sentry posted outside the house make sure that the prisoner under his charge could not communicate through the doors and windows with other persons ? Witness —In the first building I should say not. Colonel Crawley—ln your opinion as the prisoner was to be prevented from communicating with other persons, it was necessary that the sentries should be inside the house as far as the first building was concerned ? Witness— Yes, a sentry could watch the prisoner much better inside than outside. Colonel Crawley repeated the question, and pressed for a more direct answer. Witness—Essential Ido not consider it was, for a sentry walking occasionally to the rear of the building, no one would dare to come near the house to com municate with the prisoner. Certainly on a dark night a person might come, if he was not afraid of being seen by the sentry. Colonel Crawley--Do you know that complaints were made by the sentries that they were unable to perform their duty outside the building ? Witness-1 don't recollect. Colonel Crawley—Will you swear that you never heard of the sentries complaining that they could not perform their duty of watching the prisoner while outside the building? Witness—l will not swear that, as I dont recollect. Colonel Crawley—Will you swear that such complaints were not the cause of the alteration in the position of the sentries ? 'Witness—As I never have heard complaints made to my recollection I cannot swear that. Colonel Crawley—Did you as adjutant make any attempt.n to post the sentries inside the house to watch the.prisoner without unnecessarily inconveniencing him ? d inside the sentries watchColonel the had Cr must aw I ° h Y a ' T s P e ordersstc to follow the sergeant ma j or a sfro adjutant,o go into h the th house Col.

EXPERIMENTS AT SHOEBURYNESS, The 9 inch muzzle-loading gun made at the Royal Gun Factories, Woolwich, and rifled on the plan proposed by Mr. Lynall Thomas, was tried yesterday at Shoeburyness, with somewhat unsatisfactory results. semTbhliessg a u n n, o w rd h i i n ch ar c y ar m r a ie r s z a l e -31o0a0d1bi n s g h A o t r , n closely g r in outward appearance, the muzzle, however, being more prolonged. Mr. Lynall Thomas's invention consists in Substituting a series of ribs for the usual grooves. The shot are made with grooves coated with soft alloy to fit the ri • bs of the gun, and are similar in form to those used in the Armstrong, but appear to be slightly longer. It is perhaps hardly necessary to add that the " shunt" principle is not employed by Mr. Lynall Thomas. To test the range and accuracy of the gun 10 rounds of cast iron shot were fired from it at 2 deg. elevation, 10 at 5 deg., and 10 at 10 deg., the charge being 401 b in every instance: The initial velocity of the projectiles was ascertained in the care of those fired at 2 deg. elevation by Maj or Navez's electro-ballistic apparatus. It was intended to repeat the experi ments with cast-iron shells, but Mr. Thomas ob jected to those upon the ground of being too long ; a similar objection to the shot was also urged by him during the course of the experiments. He also stated that the ribs were finished too abruptly at the spot where they join the chamber of the gun. It seems a pity, however, that as the gun, shot, and shell were made at Woolwich, under Mr. Thomas's directions, he did not make these objections during the progress of the work, The velocity and range of the shots fired are very unequal. This is accounted for by Mr. Thomas by the facts mentioned above, and by the powder not being always rammed heme to exactly the same mark. Whether the latter circumstance has any weight or not is doubtful, as in other rifled guns the ramming home of the pow der to the same place within a few inches does not seem to affect materially the flight of the shot. Notes were taken at each round of the exact depth to which the charge was rammed ; it will therefore be seen hereafter whether this circumstance really has any influence on the projectile or not. If it should turn out that it has, it would be, we imagine a serious defect in the gun. The exact lateral de viation of each shot has not yet been correctly cal culated; it WRS stated, however, to be irregular. Gen. St. George, Col. Lefroy, and Capt. Heath were present during the experiments on the part of the Ordnance Select Committee. While the experiments were being made with Mr. Thomas's gun Mr. Randall and a party of men were busily engaged in taking off a series of impres sions of the inside of Sir William Armstrong's monster gun, to ascertain if the rifling had sustained any injury during Thursday's trial, but not a flaw of the size of a pin's head could be detected over the whole of " Big Will's" interior. In our impression of yesterday it was stated that the bore of this gun was 13ft. 3in. in diameter—a very obvious typogra• phical error for 13.3 inches. It is intended shortly to try the gun upon a massive floating target, which will he moored about 2,000 yards from the firing point. The experiments yesterday were again favoured by calm, warm, sunny weather. It is not known at present when Mr. Thomas's gun will be tested with shell. THE' CITY lIEMEMBRANCERSHLP. •- A Committee of the Common Council to whom it was re ferred on the 2d July last to inquiry into the nature, duties, and emoluments of the ancient office of Remembrancer in the corporation of London, and whether it was susceptible of amalgamation with advantage either with the office of City Solicitor or that of Town Clerk, or partly with both, have just presented a report on the subject. The inquiry arose on the retirement, from advanced age and failing health, of Mr. E. Tyrrell, who had spent upwards of 50 years of his life in the service of the corporation, and who had at one time thought the amalgamation of the office with some other in the corporation practicable. He was in the receipt of a salary of £l,OOO, besides professional charges he was allowed to make for business done by him, and which on an average of the last ten years raised his net Income to £2,020, in addition to an allowance of £250 a year for office expenses. The office of Remembrancer has ex;sted during nearly 300 years, having been instituted in 1570. Its first holder appears to have been one Thomas Norton, on whose death, hi 1588, Queen Elizabeth deigned to address an autograph letter to the Court of Common Council recommending as his successor " our well-be loved Dr. Fletcher, distinguished for his learning, inte grity, and other commendable parts." With such a cer tificate of character, it is presumed the worthy doctor was appointed to the vacant berth. Originally the emoluments could not have been at all equal to their amount in late years, seeing that her then Majesty charged the Common Council to award the successor of Mr. Norton " a decent maintenance." The Parliamentary duties, so called, of the Remembrancer are said to require a daily attendance at the House of Commons, and a point is made that he has from time immemorial enjoyed the privilege of a seat under the gallery of the House of Commons. He is there to keep watch and ward over the interests and p rivileges of the city, and, as his official designation imports, to keep the Common Council apprised from time to time of all mpasures in any way affecting the rights of the corpoi:ation— in other words, to see that they are no t cau g ht napping, for the civic autho rities always appear to fancy that "every man's hand is against them." For years past they have had a standing committee whose special function has been to watch and resist all attempts at reform in the corporation when these have been in contemp lation by the Government of the day, and among this most conservative body for that purpose are men holding liberal opinions on most other political subjects. The Committee on the Remembrancerebip, after an elaborate recital of the duties incident to it, ceremonial and Parliamentary, recommend that the office should be continued as a distinct and separate one, having regard to the interests of the corporation, and that the income at tached to it should be no longer fluctuating, but fixed at £1,500 a year, with an annual allowance besides, not ex ceeding £lOO, for office expenses. The committee pay a j ust compliment to Mr. Tyrrell, the retiring Remembrancer, t o the effect that he has at all times well and faithfully dis charged the trust reposed in him, and in recognitio n of his services in the business of the corporation, extending over ls half a century, they recommend that he be alTlohweedsaalapryeno-f pen sion of £7OO from the date of his retirement. £1,500 which has been recommended is equal to that an U n der-Secreta r y of State, and the com mittee say of Io nd e thes i postred fi xe d it at that amount after havin g carefully Co they have the position which t he gentleman appointed to must necessarily occupy, and the important and peculiar duties he will be called upon to discharge, and with the de sire to see the corporation fitly re p r esented in their commu nications with tho Crown an d the Government of the country. A letter from Rome states that the Roman Rail way Company has engaged to construct, in two years and a half, a line from Civita Vecchia to the Tuscan frontier. The .Revue de Saint-Pons (Herault) mentions that the summit of the Summail and other mountains in that neighbourhood are at present covered with snow.

It liacl been: pretty confi dently anticipated that ae the Ba nk made no alte ration in the rate of discounts yes,`o.-day, we should have had an improvement in the d,'Lland for yarns to-day, and consequently a feeling of e great disap pointment has been prevalent. In the cle•th-market there has been rather more inquiry, with a more cheerful feeling, but still the business effected has been of a very limited character. The inqn:ries made have led to but few o ff ers, ressi.on and the imp is that they have been intended only as feelers witl.% a view to ascertain prices without applying ae actual test. The few purchases reported are said to have consisted only of small quantities. There seems to be an almost universal conviction on the part of buyers that prices will shortly range lower, and they are consequently still disposed to hold off till a more considerable reduction has taken place than manufacturers have yet shown a disposition to sub mit to.
