THE FLAG OF THE UNITED STATES.

The original Flag of the United Sta
tes was composed of thirteen stars and
thirteen stripes, and was adopted by a
resolution of the Continental Congress
on the 18th of June, l77l' On the 18th
of January, 1894, after new States had
been admitten into the Union, the Ma
ti0nal Legislature passed an act, pro-
viding that the stars and stripes should
on day fixed be increased to fifteen
each, to comport with the then number
of States. On the 10th of December,
1917, Mr.. Wendover, of the House of
Representatives, introduced resolu-
tion to inquire into the expediency of
altering the Flag of the United States.
He gave it as his opinion that the flag
would be essentially injured by an al
teration on the same principle as that
which had been adopted, viz: of in>
creasing the stripes and stars; and sta
ted the incongruity of the flags then in
general use not agreeing with each
other.
The resolution was referred to a
select committee, which made a report
on the 9th of January, 1918, accompani-
ed by bill to alter the flag so as to
reduce the stripes to the original nuns
Der of thirteen, to represent the number
of States then contending for and hap
PLY achieving their independence, and
to insert the stars to correspond with
the number of States then in the Union,
and thereafter to add one star to the
flag whenever a new State should be
fully admitted, which was adopted.
On the Goth of September following,
being the fourth anniversary of the bat
tie of the brig Gen. Armstrong, at
Fayal, by order of the Secretary of the
Navy, the new flag was displayed for
the first time at the Navy Yard, Charles
town, and on board the National ships
of war in Boston harbor, and was salut>
ed by each vessel. Similar honor was
paid on its being hoisted at all the sta
] tions. -Lo,ceH Courier.
