A patriotic family.--Among the many incidents connected with the present military movements, no one is more remarkable than the following:--One of the companies connected with the Ohio regiments contains sixteen brothers by the name of Finch, residents of Dayton, Ohio.
They were born in Durkheim, in Germany.
The family numbers in all nineteen children--sixteen boys, all of whom are with the regiment, as stated above.
Their parents are living in New York, and their children obtained leave to visit them in Philadelphia.
On their return, if time will permit, an entertainment will be given them by a number of Germans in Philadelphia.--N. Y. Tribune, May 20.

the Nation's call. by Jesse H. Berry. “To arms!” the voice of Freedom calls, Nor calls in vain; Up, from the fields, the shops, the halls, The busy street, the city walls, Rush martial men. Throbbing and quick, the nation's heart Beats rapidly; And gathering on the nation's brow A fearful thunder-cloud of wrath, Illumed by lightning flashes, now Marks in majesty and awe the path To victory. Waving in grandeur o'er these hosts, The Stripes and Stars! God of the bold, the brave, the free, Who nerved our fathers for the fight, Grant to us still, our liberty, An arm to strike for every right;-- These are our prayers. Philadelphia Press, May 20

A correspondent of the Memphis Argus, writing from Lynchburg, Va., says:--We have two regiments from Mississippi and one from Tennessee with us, numbering one thousand each.
All are well quartered, and in fine spirits--and they shall not want for the latter so long as our mountain dew holds out. You could not find a more cheerful set of fellows in a week's travel; they play the fiddle, banjo, dance, and sing Dixie.
One fellow told me his old mammy cried the glasses clean out of her spectacles the morning he left, but on giving her two bits to buy another pair, she bid him go, and return to her covered all over with glory.
Another said he didn't like these breeches with a stripe down the leg, they pinched him; but just give him his old copperas-colored trowsers, and his own rifle, and he'd bore a hole thru Linkin's nose, through which to put a ring, and lead him about for a show. --N. Y. Tribune, May 20.

The hoisting of the rebel flag in Liverpool.--A good deal of excitement was created in Liverpool on the 24th inst., by the appearance of a secession flag at the mast-head of an American barque lying at the Victoria wharf.
The vessel which has acquired such an unenviable notoriety is the Annapolis, Captain Pickett, from Baltimore.
We understand by private advices from our agent, that the American shippers at Liverpool were so incensed at the gratuitous insult offered to their country by the piratical skipper, that nothing but the utmost respect for law and order prevented them from hauling down his colors without leave or license.--London American, May 20.
