How 1t was Hauled Down from Two
Vessels.


The following interesting account of the
hauling down Of two rebol flags In the harbor
Of HAva1a Is from an officer of the fHgate
Niagara, under date Of the 20th:
Zone Of the first thinss that attracted our
attention, was the rebel flag flying from the
> masthead OF two trading vessels moored
smoDg the merchant ships On one side Of the
hnrbor. They Haunted very brave1y In the
breeze, but the feeling on board tho Nlagnra
Was very decided that they must come down.
"By the way Of evasion and subterfugc,
little ensign of the Stars and Stripes, scarce
1y larger than your hand, or than those sur.
mounting cake at a Fourth of July dinner.
MSS fastened halfmast, Il believe, on the spank
er ha,ya1ds. This looked like adding insult
to injury. It did not take captain McKeon
lorg to nuke up his mind as to bis action in
the case; a boat was instantly called away,
and Lieutenant Potter despatched to the YES.
eels to order the flags lowered.
"Thc captain Of the first vessel boarded, on
being told the object Of the visit, very 1atly
declared that he would not lower tho la9.
"'VeTy well, sir said Potter, at the same
time draWsng revolver from bis coat bosom,
then VIC Wilt do it for you. Boys,' {callins
over the side to the boats crew. come here
and haul dorn this flasp
1.-THE first word vas hardly uttered before
the boys we're all there, rcady for the work
their hands had been itching to do. But the
skipper at once thought better Of his purpose,
ard eaid he would do it himself.
"'Very well, sir, seaid the Lieutenant, haul
It down, and take good care that you don't
hoist 1t again
s'The other soon followed suit, much to the
satisfaction and no small amuEcment not only
Of all on board the Niagara, but Of multitudes
OF others both atloat aud ashore. The ves-
sels arc both from New Orleans, and before
they can reach there the Mississippi will be
caectually blockaded, and il caught with the
rchel flag on board, which they declined to
give ug, they will, of course, become lawful

Inc Government is becoming embarrassed
With the question Of how the prisoners cap.
tured in the conflict now going on shall bc
disposed OF. The scouts are daily picking up
men proved to be rank aisunionists, and al.
ready the number taken exceeds one hundred.
The rebels are capturing Union men; assuming
that the Government will exchange prisoners,
aud that by having sufficient number they
will be able to secure the release Of the thirty.
si1 rebels captured at Alexandria
Here is the embarrassment. II the Govern.
ment treat these men as rebels taken IN arms
aggairst the Government, they shonld be hung
This would not be Defined good policy, even
did not humanity revolt against auch sacrI-
ice Of human life. On the other side, If the
system Of exchanges be adopted, there is the
at recognition Of the rebels as bclligerents
acco1d ding to all laws Of nations. The Cabinet
has ditcussed this point several tlmca without
coming to any result, but It is probable that
in the end the minor rebels will discharged on
parole, and the leadera only hung.

It eeems to us that General Butler has once

rebels are their water whee1, and when it once

rebels are contraband Of war, General Butler

gave sixteen votes in that objection. The
eynods Of Northern Indiana, Illinois, Chi.

voted unanimously for the resolutions. Ii
does hot appear that much acrimonious
feeling was created by the vote; it is Ger
tain that no division of the church was
caused thereby. Some Of the Tennessee
commissioners asked and obtained leave
npresent protest, but aside from this tho
outward ha1mony Of the assembly was not
disturbed. F.
While il is to be regretted that sixty-six
votes should bc found in this high religious
judicatory adverse 10 resolution express

rejoicing that the expression itself is 60
straightforward and unequiyocal. Thero
