i tJCEIOtS QUESTION. * * A Daughter ! Well, what brought her? »bks, “How came she here'” Half with jov and half with fear. Xmy is our eldest child— ye«B oid . and rather wild— Wild In manner, but in mind Wishing all things well defined. Xittysays: “ How came she here ? Father, .tell me—it’s so queer; Yesterday we had no sister, Rise eure I should have kissed her When I went to bed last night. _And this morning hailed her sight With strange and new delight: For, indeed, it passes all' To have a sister not so tall As my doll l and with bine eyes! And—l do declare!—it cries! Last night I did not see her, father. Or I’m sure I had much rather Stayed at home as still as a mouse, Than played all day at grandma’s house. She is pretty, and so tiny— And wbat makes her face so shiny? Wifi it always be like that? Will she swell up plump and fat, Like my little doll ? or tall, Like my wax one ? Tell me all About her, papa dear, For I do so long to hear Where she came from,and who brought her. Tours ahd mamma’s bran new daughter!’’ A daughter!—another daughter! , And the question is “What brought her?’ 1 Spence," onr boy, but three years old, Says the nurse did—And is bold, In defiance of them both, Since to yield his place he’s loth, And, pontiDg, feels his nose’s point When I declare ’tis out of joint. But though the childish explanation Be food enough for child’s vexation We older folks must better find To feed the hunger of the mind; To us, of larger issues preaching This link of life eternal reaching, From earth to heaven, this new-born soul Comes fresh from wherever roll Itacountless years through yonder heaven. Has deeper cause for thinking given. * . A daughter! No matter what—she comes to bring A blessing in her life’s young spring. “No matter, darling!—she is her?— " Our daughter, sister, baby dear ! Open yonr hearts, and let her enter, Open them wide, for God hath sent her™ NATKHAI, MEDALS. Tbelr -Origin and Peculiarities. The whole number of Gold Medals awarded by the Nation for distinguished services during the Revolution and in the war ef 1812, wa9 but forty-one. The medals of the Revolution were all struck in France, and, at the time they were struck, -the French Government pre sented a series in silver to General Wash which medals, after the decease ef Gen Washngton, were offered for sale and jmrchased by Daniel Webster. So highly esteemed were the medals of the Revolution, thatabout the year 1791 an enterprising Jew, in London, by the name of Ryans, who had seen ithem cut at his own expense, dies of several of them, and executed copies in copper, ■which were sold as genuine. The cod per medals of Washington, Howard,and Wm. Washington had their origin in this forgery. By a resolution of Con fjress, March 25, 1776, the first national medal was presented to General Wash ington,onthe occasion of the evacuation of Boston by the British troops in that .year. Also a vote of thanks was passed to him, and the officers and soldiers un der his command, for their wise and spirited conduct in the siege and acqui oition' of Boston. The next medal pre sented by Congress was to General An. thOny Wayne. By the juurnal of Con gress it appears that the attack on Stony 'Point was ordered by General Washington on the 10th of July, 1779. 'General Wayne issued his orders on the 35th,on. the night of which day the at-~ teak was successfully made. Congress immediately passed a vote of .thanks to -General Wayne,and the officers and sol diers under his command, particularly mentioning Col. De Fleury and Major Stuart, who led the attacking columns and .Lieutenants Gibbons and Knox who,.under a severe fire, destroyed the •double row of abatis. Gibbons end Knox were promoted, and gold medals were ordered to be struck and presented to Wayne, De Fleury and Stuart. The fifth was to Gen. Horatio Gates Nov. 4,1779, on the occasion of the de feat of Burgoyne’s army and detach ments from it. The sixth was the The Andiv Medal -Nov. 3, .1780. It consists of a silver shield or medallion, and bears the names of John Panlding, David Williams and .Isaac Van Wart, who intercepted Major John Andre, in the character cf a spy -and notwithstanding the large bribes •offered them, for his release, nobly dis« darning to sacrifice their country-for the •sake of.gold, secured and conveyed him •to the commanding officer of the district whereby the conspiracy of Benedict Arnold was brought to light, the insidious, designs of the enemy baffled -and. the United States rescued from impending danger. A pension of two hundred dollars annually during life was also bestowed On each of them’. March 9th, 1781, five gold medals were ordered by-Congress, co be struck and presented to General Nathaniel Green, ■Col- Wm. A. Washington, Major Henry Lee (afterwards General Lee,) Daniel Morgan and John Eager Howard, for their gallant services during the war Also to Major Lee, a vote of thanks for the remarkable prudence, address and (bravery displayed by him at Paulus Hook (now Jersey City,) August 19, 17.79. * The twelfth medal was to the naval hero, Captain John Paul Jones, Feb. 27, 3781, together with a complimentary re solution, for the oapture of the English frigate Serapts, by the Bon Homme Jlichard. The above twelve medals were all that were struck in reference to public events m this country, previous to the close of the war of independence. IWie next and thirteenth National medal was to Captain Thomas Truxton, for the capture of the French' frigate La Vengeance by the United States frigate Constitution, Feb. 1, 1800. The resolu tion of Congress ordering the medal, was passed during the session of 1800. The fourteenth was also to a naval “ e ™> Commodore Edward Preble.Mareh Tripoli, 1804k® 0n the W of Nov. 3,1814, soon after the close of the war, a general resolution was passed by Presenting gold medals to Gen; Winfield Scott, Gen.

Lewis Warrington; also a vote of thanks from both Houses, for the capture of the Brit ish brig L’Epervier by the sloop of war Peacock, March 29,1814. Thirty-ninth—Dec., 1816, toihe widow of Captain Johnson Blakely, for the cap ture of the British sloop-of-war Rein deer by the sloop-of-war Wasp, June 2S. 1814. After the action, the Wasp was spoken by a vessel off the Western Isles; since which time she has never- been heard of. The circumstances attending her fate are like many others incident to the great deep, beyond tke reach of' discovery. On the 27th Dec., 1817, the : Legislature of North Carolina, of which i State Captain Blakely was a native : “Resolved unanimously, that his child be educated at the expense ef the State and that his widow be requested to draw on the Treasurer of the State, from time to time, for such sums of money as shall be required for the education of her child.” This action of the State of North Carolina to her gallant-son, is the brightest example of State gratitude in the history of our country. Its equal is only to be found in the classical days of Greece, when the offspring of those who fell in battle for their country, became the children of the state whose cause had rendered them fatherless. It is by the fostering of such a spirit as this that the. United States may-acquire the most enviable ascendancy over the hearts Of her citi zens; fathers will aspire to die in the de fence of their country, when thay are made to feel that their honor is perpetu ated in the adoption of their children. On the meeting of Congress, 3816, that body passed a voteof thanks t© Captain Chas. Stewart, his officers and .crew,and resolved that a suitable gold medal com memorative of that brilliant event, .the! capture of the two British ships of war, ! the Cyane and Levant,by the Constitu tion, Feb. 20,1815, should be presented to Capt. Stewart, in testimony of the 1 sense they entertained of his gallantry,' and that of the officers, seamen and ma- - rines under his command on that occa sion. During thesame session of Congress, 1816, that body voted a gold medal to Capt. James Biddle, for the capture of the British sloop of war Penguin by the sloop of war Hornet,mi 22 mhlutei. Match 23,1815. Silver medals were, .also presented to the commissioned officersof the Hornet. The above list comprises all of the medals of honor conferred by Congress for distingnishedaervice&during the war of Independence and the war of 1812. They form suoh an important part of our history, that we have taken the pains to collate the exact data for pre sentation that they may be regarded not as curious relics only, but ao perpetua- ; ting the most important events in the foundation of American liberty.— N. Y \ Sun. John Chinaman a Social Prvjblem. The great influx of Chinamen into Cali fornia gives rise to the idea among the of that State that the next social problem will be the status of the Chinese in the United States* A San Francisco gen tleman writes to a Boston paper: “In & few months or years he will cross the Rocky Mountains and begin to fill up the Valter of the Mississippi. As soon as the Pacific KaUroad Is completed, the path will be open Millions can still: be accommo dated in the mines on the Pacific coast, Oa the Ist of January, 1867, the Colorado, a pioneer of a new line between San Fran cisco and China, will commence her trips and every arrival will bring from one thou sand to fifteen hundred to that port. Capi talists are already discussing the question of contracting with Ohinese companies for immense numbers of them to cultivate the cotton fields of the South for a term of years at a much cheaper rate than negro labor can be obtained. Soon the rivalry be tween the Chinaman and the negro will commence, 1 ' fro* Our Third EdftloH of Yesterday LATER FROM WASHINGTON GENERALS GRANT AND SHERMAN. Secretary Stanton’s Position.

I.Bpedal Despatch to the Bulletin.J Washington, October 26th.—Generals Grant and Sherman' were in conference with the President to-day at an early hoar. It is said that it relates to both military and political matters. You may rely upon it that Secretary Stanton will not leave the Cabinet unless forced to do bo. It is more than probable that all the talk abont Mexico will end in smoke. Several new candidates have appeared within the last few days for the Surveyor ship of Philadelphia. Secretary McCulloch has notified the President that he is decidedly opposed to making any more changes in his depart ment. The Case ol the Baltimore Commissioners Annapolis, Oct. 26, 1866.-Tfie investiga tion of the charges against the Police Com missioners commenced at 11 o’clock. Alarge number of witnesses were present The counsel of the Commissioners appeared and announced that they caihe to participate iu the cross examination,but did not withdraw their plea against the jurisdiction of the Governor to pass final judgment. Mr. Schley, for the petitioners, objected to the Commissioner’s counsel participating in the investigation unless they withdraw their plea against the jurisdiction of the Governor. Tbe counsel are now arguing that point. From Norfolk, Va.

The qomplaiuant was •Lieut. John G. Loveaire, of the Ninth Dis trict Police. It appears that two or three weeks ago the accused were arrested for drunkenness, and as is usual with prison ers, their valuables were taken from them and retained until they got sober. A dav or two after the affair Lieut. Loveaire and three of his officers were arrested and charged with the larceny of §lOO belonging to th* sei men. It was sworn positively thai liieut. Loveaire was behind the desk and received the money. He -showed conclu sively that he was in bed et the time he was alleged to have taken the money, and the charge was dismissed by Alderman Hurley. Then Lieut. Loveaire entered suit against a ßfBan aiid Hodges. They were held in 51,500 bail for their appearance at Court. - COURTS.
