The ef- fort was philosophc, lucid and conclusive. He announced himself opposed to secession as a rem edy for past grievances, and indicated several hn- teryening remedies before resort to extreme mea- Sures m his opinion would be deemed wise or ne ceSsary. He believes in the right of secession, argues it as an abstract question, but recommends it only when all other constitutional means of re- dress are exhausted"

The "Cleopatra,, Indictments.

On the 2d instant, MT. J. L. O'Sulliyan, Major Selslnger and Capt. Lewis, appeared agreeably to their recognizanees in the |. 5. District Court m New York, indicted on charge of being engaged in fitting out an expedition for the invasion of Cuba.
 NIT. 0Sullivan remarked on the District Attor- neys inquiry If they were prepared to plead, that the bili Of indictment was very volumlnous, and that he had not been able to procure a copy of it. He moved removal of the case for trial from the |. $. District Court to the U. $. Circuit Court as important principles of law were involved. and Il desirable that an appeal be ured so that the law may be settled, Ii need be, by the Supreme Court of the United States. The District Atior- ney opposed the motion, chiefly because there are a number of witnesses Ill the case who are detain- cd in prison. .hIle inc three gentlemen indicted are out on bail, and Il would be proper that the case come on for their sakes, well as account of the heavy expense. NIT. OSulliyan sad that he was perfectly willing that the testimony of any of The witnesses should be taken ds beassse. The District Attorney remarked that he would rather have the witnesses present.

in Important Decision.

Judge Lowrie, m the District Court at Pittsburg, has given decision that where under the law mak- ing the county liable for damages arising from riots and requiring the Sheriff to take all legal means to prevent the injury, the Sheriff hires, at great ex pense, armed military companies to aid him, he cannot clam to be repad by the county for such expenses. The Sheriff hired several volunteer companies to protect the rolling mills, which were threatened with destruction by a mob. The court drew distinction between lawful and legal means, which the Sheriff IS authorized under law to adopt when a rio. IS threatened. To say that the ShenfI was bound to use all lawful means to prevent the threatened destruction of property, is to say that he must use ali the means that are not unlawful; and this would include ali those physical and moral means which might be adapted to the occa- sion, whether pointed out by the law or not; means which are not properly official, and which cannot reasonably be exacted of public officers.
 When the law requires an officer to take all illegal neans'' to effect an object, 1t intends that he shall take all such means as he may officially use and he IS not chargeabe with neglect of duty, II he adopts the means prescribed by law for such occasions, though he omit other plain physical aud moral means. These may be lawful because not prescribed by law as means to be used by him in his office. He IS not liable except for neglect of official duty, that IS, for not usslg those means which the law put into his hands by his official in vestture. At common law the Sheriff has au- fhonty to raise the power of the county, around if hs thinks proper He may demand the attendance of any number of armed citizens to aid hun in his duty When necessary, 1t IS ms duty to command, and theirs 10 obey. But he has no authority to hre certain military companies for a price to do what they and every man were bound to do, as a matter Of public duty By this decision the Sherfi will have to pay 5000 of hts own money

The Fakir Again.

This wonderful performer assumes ProteuS llke many shapes as characters. We hear of hss actually performing n the market house, the other morning, the following experiment upon an egg man
 Whats the price of eggs p asked the Fakir of a broad hfImmed countTyman
 Eight cents dozen, II you want single do- zen.'
 .. only want one" says the Faklr; " will you take five cents for one P'
 "Go away Ais.er, don't bother me: 1 want to sell my eggsF'
 PlI give you five cents for this one" says the FakIr cuoly picking up al egg.
 We'll if you're such fool, you may takeit."
 Tue FakiI gave hun five cents {; took out his knife and cracked the egg and out rolled ten or twelve Ialf eagles. Placing them in his pocket "i-it take another" says the Faklr, giving the man another five cent piece.
 Cracking the next, out rolled as many more.
 "Pu take ali those eggs,' says the Fakr.
 No you don't" says the man, covering the basket with his coat taii and making tracks away for home n such haste that expert boys could have played marbles on hlS coat tail, II stuck out so straight.
 We have not heard the result, but rather ''gueSS that fl the country broker opened ils eggs he'd not tnd much else than yolk, white and shell
 We saw the Fakir drop dollar in the bottom of the basket so that the cost that would ensue should not fall on the egg seller.
 In regard to late scientific experiments, 1t is sad, that q little more brandy in your water than usual will cause the rotation o( the earth to be distinctly visible.

An Exprdltoa to London.

correspondent Of the Cleveland Plain Dealer relates the following;
 An accomplished and desperate gang of rogues have started from New York to London, for the bold purpose of trying to carry of the wofld-re- nowned koh-i noor diamond, now on exhibition at Inc Crystal Palace. This magnificent gem is de- posted within an iron cage of great strength which. by an ingenious contrvance sinks al night down into massive iron chest upon which 1t resss and on which II IS thought to be 80 secure, that the Royal Commissioners have never dreamed of the possibility of any attempt being made to pnrIcin k do not see how any one could make the posses sion of stolen article of thls rare value availa~ ble,' unless a of ext0rting money fram the owner, for its redemption.
 " It appears that one of the gang having had some personal dispute with the leader, suddenly and unobseryed left the steamer that conveyed the rest of the party to England. few minutes before il sailed. and proceeded forthwith to Mir.

A scene in Court.

Yesterday morning some excitement was occa- stoned iii the Court of the Recorder of the First Municipality, by one of those strange ciTcumstan- ces which sometimes deStroyS the Sa9eneSsS ofthe proceedings of our Police Courts. An intelligent member Of the bar was addressing acting Recorder Fabre. in a of swindllng, and he had occasion to allnde in strong terms to the prosecutor, who, feeling annoyed, uapoliteiy called the lawyer liar Tins insult raised the ire of the of bfieis and he dealt the nuspspecting defendant blow upon hiS IontiSpiccc 'hat made hsseyeS strike fire, and hls nasal protuberance quail beneath the weight of the clnched fist Of the nsulted gentleman. The defendant locked aghast as the hnght-red stream ran from his face; and he showed by his grimaces that the blow had effected the well nisrited chaS tiscment. The Recorder informed the member of the bar that he had committed q coa1einpt of court for which he expressed his regret. although com peiied by the force ol circumstances and his Hon or fined him sl q for the offence, winch nnme diAtely paId, and with apparent satisfaction.
