of the gold medal to be presented to Major General
Grant, under the joint resolution of Congress ap
proved December l?»h, 1863. Several designs were
received by the committee appointed for the purpose

The design is completed, aud the engraving will
probably be executed in this city. The medal will
be of gold, three and a halt inches in diameter.
The revert* represents the Goddess of Liberty
seated upon a cpneife. A flag drapes over the sphere,
and the folds are Jifted by aD eagle in Sight. The

Within a shield, upon which is inscribed kt Doasl
«on.” The leit hand holds a cornucopia, from which
issue the various fruits of the country. Beneath
all this are two scenes, representing Vicksburg and
Chattanooga, separated by a pyramid of trophies,
Hags, ard spears supported on a cannon as the base.
Encircling the picture is a wide space representing
the Mississippi river, on which are floating com
mercial steamers and iron clads. The outer rim
contains thirteen stars.
On tfle obverse of the medal is a profile bust of
Genet al Grant, surrounded by a wide spaoe, in which
appear, at tbe bottom, two American flags crossing
each other, the folds of which encircle the products
of the States over which Grant has carried triumph
antly the stars and stripes. The sugar cane, cotton,
rice, and tobacco are flourishing under the shadow of
the flag. The medal, when completed, will cost about
$3,000. The engraver has not yet been chosen. Mr.
Antrobus has painted a life-size portrait of General
Grant, which row holds a conspicuous place in the
collection in the Capitol, and is said to be a very
faithful picture.

and Filbert streets, by members of the fire depart

who w*« prerent we learn that aeveral hundred

£Uly interested in the sport. The judge.
“"4 ail appointed and properly stationed, and
the exciting game commenced; The shooting was
excellent, but, towards the last, the Jersey*Boy
missed three or four straight birds, when the ory of
“fcul,” “foul,” was raißed. This was reiterated
with the additional cry of, “he is selling out.” The
friends of both parties beosme very much excited,
and ** confusion worse confounded ** increased every
moment. It was not long before the parties as
sumed more belligerent positions, and they entered
into a few personal or individual fights, which
speedily became entirely free. Such a scene was
not expected. The contending parties were not in
terfered with j but the struggle did not last long.
The result was that about one hundred, men had
their eyes clothed in the habiliments of deep mourn*
icg• their faces lacerated; their nasal protube
rances flattened and phlebotomized; their heads
swelled and their ribs punched. During the mutual
pummelling of devoted sconces, two pistol shots
were fired, but nobody was hurt from this effort to
give eclat to the occasion. . . .
The shooting match was arranged for onehunarea
bird*, the amount of-mone? Staked being $5OO. An*
other match had been made to t*ke place between
Meaarr. William Carton and John Taylor, for the
tame amount of money and fifty birds, and the time
fixed wa» thia afternoon.

[Before Mr. Alderman Beitler.l
Single «r Case of Larceny.
Morris Neelis and his wife were arraigned at the
Central Station, yesterday afternoon, on the charge
of the larceny ol $100.12, belonging to Margaret
Bromley, recently of Trenton, N, J.j but now resid
ing in this city. The facts or this case are some
what complicated, though interesting. It seemß
that cn FrldajMftemoon Mrs. B. stopped at a shoe
store on Second street, above Arch, to purchase a
pair of shoes for a little child she had in her compa*
ny. On feeling for her pocket-book, she discovered
that it was gone. An advertisement was inserted
in the Ledger, and on Saturday morning a little boy,
named John Campbell, called upon the loser, at her
residence, on Twenty*third street, between Locust
and Spruce, and informed her that a little boy,
named Johnny Neelis, found the pocket-book on
Second street, near Arch. The woman hastened to
the parents of the finder, and made known her loss.
The father and mother, who are defendants in this
case, were insolent, and drove Mrs. Bromley away,
alleging they knew uotoirg about the money. The
little boy who found it has been kept out of the
reach of the police.
9QIt seems that Mr, Neelis purchased a barrel of
flour, and when questioned as to the kind of money
be paid for it, replied that he had sold a flve-dollar
gold piece at 6?>£c premium, and thus obtained
enough to pay the amount required. The person
from whom the article was purchased was subse
quently found, and on being questioned, remembered
telling a barrel of flour to Neelis, who tendered a
$lO note Trenton Banking Company in payment,
and received his change.
Mrs. Bromley had accumulated the amount lost,
by economy 7 and industry, and had placed it in the
Trenton Banking Company. Desiring to reside in
Philadelphia, and wishing to start a little cake and
candy shop, drew the money from that institution
in its own issue, and arrived here on Thursday or
Friday, we believe.
N. 64)1° W.
295
Another interesting point is furnished by the little
boy Campbell; he says that Johnny Neelis picked
the pocket-book up, and halloed out “ all my owns,”
and then ran into the house; he then paeped through
the window, and saw Johnny’s mother counting out
the notes. These are tbe main facts in brief. The
defendants were committed for a hearing to take
place to-morrow.
[Before Mr Alderman
Malicious mischief.
Two men and. two women were arraigned yester
day on the charge of malioious misobief, in breaking
things generally in the room of a “tenant house,”
on Fineatreet, above Sixth. It seems the husbands
of the two women are in the army. On Sunday
afternoon the two male defendants called to see the
female defendants, and, from all accounts, indulged
in various acts of illegality. The entire party drank
so freely of intoxicating liquors that it seemed to be
rare sport for them to smash doors, tear down
shelves, rip up carpets, and throw ohairs and other
things out of the window. The principal occupant
of the house is a German, named Chas. Whiteman.
He was almost frightened to death at the outrageous
conduct of the defendants. The latter treated the
proceedings before the magistrate with a great deal
oflevity, but ebaoged their demeanor entirely upon
being required to enter bail in - the sum of $1,200 to
answer at court.
[Before Mr. Recorder Bnea. 3
Serious Case 0/ enlisting Minors.
William H. Martin was arrested yesterday by De
tective Adam Trefts, on a process issued by the
United State* authorities, charging him with enlist
ing minors, by forging the parents’ written consent.
There were four minors enlisted. The parents of
two of them, John P. Campbell and Martha Barber,
entered the proceedings to have" their childdren
released. The ages of the boys are from 14 yeaTs
to 17. The defendant was ordered to give bail to
await a further hearing to take place at half past
12 o’clock to-day.
[Before Mr. Alderman White. 1
The case of Mr. Kelly, charged with the larceny of
ahorse, the property of John Speakman, before re
ported, was finally disposed of yesterday. The
counsel for the defense, B. H. Brewster, Esq., con
tended in a forcible manner that tbe charge of larce
ny, under the circumstances, could not be sustained,
and felt quite sure that the defendant would be dis
charged upon a Writ of habeas corpus. The magi
strate, without expressing his opinion as to the
merits of the case, returned the case to court, rather
than assume the responsibility of dismissing it.
The defendant entered bail.
[Before Mr. Aldermen Devlin, j
Pickpocket in a Cliurcli.
John Anion is the name given by a young man
who was arraigned on the charge of pickiug the

ordered to enter bail in the sum of $2,000 to answer
at court.
