The Louisville Courier-Journal says:
Since it has been discovered that Dion
Doucicanlt borrowed his version of " Clar
iisa iiarlowc ' from a play produced in
London in 1846 a perfect avalanche of
criticism and blame has descended upon
the prolific author of "aoopbys." It is
just uo.v discovered that 59: ol these
plays ar; "out ami out" plagiarisms.
If he had only gathered up old iron from
the roadside and converted it into useful
ami beautiful articles, no one would have
made an outcry, bm to sctub up already
"beautiful anil useful articles," slightly
discolored by time, and palm them olf
for his own invention, is a lilt!" too
much. Many of Shakcsreire'o plajs
arc founded upon an llnnlish
monk's rendition of the French monk's
rendition of the "Ucsta Homanorum," an
assoitmcnt of Oriental and German talcs,

where. The fact is, authors copy each
other fifteen or twenty deep, until there
is no tracing the idei to its faraway, orig
inal fountain head. Charles Hcailc was
accused by Mm. isouihworth of copying
her 1 lot in "l-'ou! Play." A story of
Thomas Hood's tailed tho ""Sicilian Lov

it is likely both of these writers obtained
the framework of their stories.

The American Flag
The history, or rather tho origin ot
our flag, must be of interest to the yot h
of our laud. We have collated from
original sources the following facts: A

History informs us that several I'ags
were used by the Vankeci before the
present national one war. adopted. In
March, 1775, a Union llag, with a red
field, was hoisted in New York, bearing
the inscription on one side of "Oeorge
Hex and the liberties of America,'' and
upon the reverse, " No Popery." Gen.
Israel Putnam raised on Prospect Hill,
July iS, 1775, a llag bearing on one iitle
the' motto of the Commonwealth cf
MassraciiUici'.'," and on the ether, " An
appeal lo Heaven." In'Mober, 177;.
the floating batteries of L'.jston bore a .
flag with the latter motto, with the Mai .
achust'.ts emblem. Some of the colonic j
ucd in 1775 a llag with 1 ra,:'eiii.i,.e
coiled ai it about to ttnUe, ,11. d the
motto, " Don't tread on me." On Jan
uary iS. 177ft. tlm grand Union llag of
stata and stripes was raised on the heights
near Poston, and it is t-aid that some of
the regulais made the great mistak" oi
supposing that it was a token tf surj
miiision to the king, who-e sjAiccn had
just been sent to imj AtnciiiiiH. The
llntish Kectslcr ol 1770 siyf, " they (the
rebel!) burnt the king's speech and
changed Kicir cdors from :i jilain ltd
ground to a llag with thirteen suipci. as a
symbol ol the number ami union ol the
colonics." A letter from liiMori, pub
lished in the Penneylvania Gazci.e, in
1776, says, "the Union llag was laised 4
on tlic 21I, a compliment to tlic United
Colonies."
These variouslligs, the Pine-Tree, the
Rattlesnake and the Snipes were u-td
according to the tastes ol the pattioti
until July, 1777, when the blue union of
die .stars was added for each new- State,
but the llig became too large and Con
gress reduced the stripes to the original
imriccn, and now the start, are made 10

a man 10 reform him is like being meas
ured for an umbrella, 1: may or may
not be satisfactory; but vou might as well
' try to make a politician honest as to talk to
a woman who loves a man. io matter
how worthless he may be, she will brave
everything for him; and 1 wouldn't f,ie

on the avenue, 1 saw a man, respectable
looking, in a helpless state ot intoxica&
and a policeman on each side of him '
ing him to the station house; behind hi
was Ins wife, a young, nice-looting, well-
dressed woman. She paid no attent'on
to the rabble fallowing, or the won
looks of the pas-ers-by, but stuck by him,
trying to pacify and quiet him. I could
not help thinking how little a man ould
stand by a woman. Man is of the 'noblei'
sex and a superior being, but he will "'
a woman in trouble and than leave tier to j
get out as best she can."
