That FLAG.-The Delta, it appears,
has fallen into the same error as the
Crescent. After stating hat the first
flag of the State, was made by Mr..
TOBY HART, 'fOr a new military COM
pany in st. Mary parish, nea Brashear,"
it goes on thus tn describe this elegant
standard which, TO the honor of the CT
tizcns of Plaquemine,-who subscribed
for and ordered it to be made through
Mr. Jos. II. ~SroCKLET-will soon be I'M
furled to the breezes of old Iberville:
This banner is composed of a rich
blue silk ground, having its edges trim
med with gold fringe, and its center
adorned with a large crimson star, in
which are the arms of Louisiana and
motto. Above this star on a floating
scroll of red ribbon, edged with gold, is
painted this sentence in gilt letters
Equality in the Union.7
Beneath the star comes an equally
expressive joint sentence, similarly az
ranged, and as follows:
"Or Independence out Of it."
Here the whole question of the people
of the South is expressed in nine short
words.
The flag staff is ornamented witt. a
gold spear top which has a pendant of
two bullion gold cords and t~assels,
making the whole a perfect and elegant
banner, and the first flag made for Louis.
