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.
