The father of Milt, Mrrensu.,not deeming it probable that his daugh ter had 'anticpated the observant of this country and Europe in the discovery, took no steps to ob tain the award of the medal; until it Was Weight to the notice of the eminent scientific men, appointed by the King orDenmark to make the award, by the correspondence of Mr. Everett; but it was their united opinion that a compliance with the condition relative to immediate notice of discovery, was indis pensable; and that it was consequently out of their povier to award the to Miss Mrrcur Lt. Mr. Everett, not resting contented with their decision, and with the most commendable regard for the claims of his fair countrymoman, opened a corr ere pondence on the subject with several persons in Europe, who were appointed to make the award, and with the MOM R. P. Flennekin, Charge d'Affaires of the United States at Copenhagen. Mr. Everett, often gives apreliminary account of the contest for the medal, proceeds ta retonrk, that Mr. “Flennakin entered With great Seal and interest into the subject. He lost no time in bringing. it before the Dahish government,. by means of a letter to the Count de Eruth, the minister at that time for foreign affairs; and of another to the Ring of Denmark himself; and that it - was quite fortunate for the succeseef the ap plication that the office of Charge d'Affaires of the United States at Copenhagen, happened to be . filled by a gentleman disposed give it his prompt and , to persevering support.” A matter °tells kind of ' course lay without the province of hie official duties. But no subject officially communicated to him by the instructions of his government could have been more zealously pursued. • On the very day on which my communication of the Bth of August reached him, Mr. Flennekin- addressed his letters to the Minister of Foreign Affairs and to tho King, and Eh continued to give his attention to the subject till the object was happily effected, and the medal placed in his hands. The letters hero referred to are highly interesting, and cannot fail to be read by all with great satisfaction. . They are, as follows : [TRANSZATION.•] legation of the'United States of America, ?

The Dutch and Chi nese are the - only foreigners whom the Japanese admit in their ports : TherDntch, who have a lac tory itt Nangosoki, tree'allowed-to send one vessel' in a year from Batavia to that port. During the war between Great Britain and :.Holland, about 1 800—according' to the Boston` Courier—the En, gfish cruisers prevented all intercourse between Batavia and Japan by Dutch vessels: The Dutch accordingly, were , compelled .- to hire American vessels'for this purpose. Captain Stewart, who. commanded one of these in 1803, made an attempt to trade under the Atnerican flag on his own ac. count. He sailed to Nangosoki, with a cargo a vowedly American property:: and solicited per; mission to trade and supply himself with water and provisions. The trade was promptly refused, but the supplies were granted. Another attempt was made in 1837, by some American merchants from Macao. The vessel which they despatched had on; board some shiprecked Jaoanese sailors, and it was thought that the restoration of these men to their homes would furnish the means for opening an intercourse with the country. But this attempt likewise utterly failed. Whenever the vessel showed herself she was fired upon and drivm en to sea; We are acquainted with an 'intelligent and per severing American, who no later than last year, make several attempts to trade with Japan. Be ing„in, command of a fine whaler, a vessel of 700 tons, formerly a New York liner, he entered the sea of Japan in search of fish. He frequently was within a couple of miles of the shore. On one oc casion he ran close in towards one of the seconda ry ports of Japan, which he described as crowded with junks, and presenting a forest of masts al most as thick as that exhibited by New York.— The harbor was formed by an artificial mole, al: most a mile in length.. While passing through the straits of Maternal, he boarded several Japan_ ese junks, in' every case making an ineffectual ef fort to'trade. Among othereh+vboarded a large packet, apparently of 600 tons burden. Re. was not allowed, however, to enter this vessel, which was crowded with passengers, but was met at `the gangway by the capthin armed, and forced to re., turn, after vainly expostulating, and endeavoring to tempt the Japanese officer by offers.of presents, all of which were declined. There were many women on board this junk, who ; at the approach of the Americans, were hurried down the fore hatch. Nsw COMPOSITION ron SION LETTERS.—Mr. John A. Parks, of this city, has discovered a new composition for making onsamental letters for signs and for making mouldings and other works of an oramental character. The composition can be struck out with dies in a press while in a =soft state. and afterwardi it qecomes quite hard, but possesses great tenacity. and iS not easily, broken. For sign letters it is a thousand times better than wood, and can be manufactured at one half the cost. It is capable of taking a very fine polish, and for durability, it may be said to be imperisha ble.—Scientifir .American. . , .
