THE STARS AND SRIPES.
So niueli has been written
concerning the origin of the
American llag, our cherished
banner of the "Stars and
Stripes." permit me to furnisl
the following data, which an
authentic and historically true,
us the history of the United
States flag:
The idea-of smifUiirdr&f'iffnT
ated with the Egyptians at m
early aw. The Crusaders ad
(led the cross to their banners.
The union of the three crossc
of St. George, St. Andrew ami
St. Patrick marks, lirt, the tin
Ion of England and Scotland in
to the kingdom of Great Drait
ain, and then this kingdom with
Ireland. This is termed tin
great ur ion finjr of Great Brit-
am, and was brouirht by tlx
colonists to America.
"When the thirteen colonies
began to feel the iron presMm
of British tyranny and domesti
rule, they nlaced under then
banners a rattlesnake, cut in
thirteen pieces, representing tin
thirteen original colonies, with
the motto, "join or die." When
these colonies became more unit
ed in their purposes of resist
since to Piiitish enslavement.
they placed on their lia" si well
formed rattlesnake, in the atti
tude of about to strike, with the
motto, "don't tread on me."
Dr. Franklin, seeing this em-ble-m
on one of the drums of
that day, writes as follows: "On
inquiry, and from study, I learn
ed that the r.ncients considered
the serpent an emblem of wis
dom, and in some attitudes, of
endless duration. Also thstt
countries sire often represented
by animals peculiar to that
j country. I he rattlesnake is
found nowhere but in America!
Her eye is exceedingly bright
and without eyelids -emblem of
vigilance. She never begins an
sittack and she never surrenders
--emblem of imignanimity aud
courage. She never wounds ev
en her enemies, until sifter gen
erously giving them warning
not to treat I on her which is
j emblematical of the spirit of
the people who inhabit her
country. She appears appar
ently wesik and defensive, but
her weapons aro nevertheless
formidable. Her poison is the
nece.-sary means for the dio-es-tion
of her food, but certsiin des
truction to her emeniies, show
ing the power of American re
sources. Her tliirtcen rattles,
the only part wWch increases in
number, arc distinct from esich
other, and yet so united that
they cannot be disconnected
without breaking them to pieces,
showing the impossibility of an
American republic without the
union of States." How marvel
ously prophetic.
4kA single ratJe will give no
sound alone, but the ringing of
the thirteen together is suflicient
to startle the boldest man alive.
She is beautiful in youth, which
increaseth with her age, her
tongue IS forked, SIS 1 1 10 lighten

oi.uea was inu Miirs aim snipes.
Its proportions are perfect when
properly inside, the first and hist
stripes being red. with alternate
stripes of white. The blue field
for the stars is the square of the
widfli of seven stripes. On the
14th of June, 1777 the Conti
nental congress resolved, "That
the fhig of the United States be
thirteen stripes, alternate red
and white, and that tho Union
be tliirtcen white stars on a blue
Held, representing a new con
stellation." Previous to this,
however, our national banner
was the union Hag, combining
I the crosses of St. Cieomv and
St. Andrew.
The stars and stripes were
infurled for the lirst time at
:he battle of Saratogo on the
iceasion of the surrender of
The stars of the llag repre
sent an idea taken from the con
stellation Lyra, which signifies
'isirmony. The blue of the field
was-taken from the banner of

:es against oppression, and in-
-mentally involving viVilence,
perseverance and justice. The
-tars were disposed in si circle,
symbolizing the perpetuality of'
the Tnion, the circle being the
ign of eternity. Doth the
thirteen stripes and the stars
showed the number of United
Colonies, and denoted the sub
ordination of the states to, and
their dependence upon the Un
ion, as well as equality among
themselves. The whole wsts a '
blending of the previous ban
ners, namely the red flsig of the
army and the white flao- of the
navy. The red color, which in
the days of Roman glory was
the signal of defiance, denoted
daring and the white purity.
On the 13th of Januaty, 17flL,
by an act of Congress, the liaf
was altered to fifteen red and
white stripes and fifteen stars.
On the 14th of April, 1818,
congress again altered the llag
by returning to the original
thirteen stripes and fifteen stars.
sis the adding of a new strins
for each additional state would
t r . -
make the thig too unwieldy.
The new star is added to the fhig
on the 4th of July foilownigthe
ulmission of each stsite into the
Union. Ex.
Don't Forget the Widow.
A Dakota retail dry goods man
hsid died, and at the fuiural ser
vice in the church a good deacon
arose and remarked: '
"If there are any friends of the
deceased who have anything to
ssiy we shall take a mornful pleas
ure in listening to them."
Xo one responded for two or
three minutes and then the wid
ow got up.
"I haven't much to ssiy on this
sad occasion." she said, "but I
would like to announce that bus
iness will be carried on at the
old stand by the heartbroken
widow of the deceased and our
spring stock of goods can't be ex
celled in price and quality in this
neck of the woods, and 1 hope
you'll not forget the widow or the
fatherless. Amen." Washington

Revenge is Sweet.
The cold, haughty, purse
bound merchant prince who
treats his ribbon-counter gentle
man and gentleman's nrderware
saleshulies with mere civility or
chilling indifference had better
I be aware. The time may come
j
I when their positions may bo re
versed.
'See here, Jinks," said one of
these arrogant millionaires one
dsty to a ninety-pound ribbon
counter clerk, "you want to at
tend to business, better, young
man. and not waste so much
time llirting with that red-head -
ed underware girl across tho
aisle, mind that."
Enraged and humiliated, the
down-trodden ribbon-counter
re f vows and seeks revenue.
His time soon comes, aye, that
night?
The purse-proud, cold-blooded
merchant goes to the theatre.
He buys an admission ticket
and stands up, being of an eco
nomical turn of mind.
"Let us pass, sir," gays a
calm, cold voice at his side. He
looks down and beholds the ribbon-counter
clerk in the maw
nificence of full dress, with the
underware girl in flowing robes
and sixteen button kids hanging
to his arm. The eves of the
two men meet, but there is no
sign of recognition on the part
of the ribbon counter clerk, on
ly a cold, haughty fixed stare as
he passes proudly on to the S3
sesits reserved for him and the
underware girl, while the snub
bed and humitiatcd merchant
prince stands on in the midst of
his own bitter reflections.--Detroit
