Tnx ConyEpERArE FLAo.-An Alabama
correspondent Of the Richmond Esgsi,er
says he never liked the present Confederate
Aag, borrowing as he thinks il does, too much
from the North. He proposes instead, for
Asg and seal, the white eagle on . blue field
The white eagle, he says, wss the emblem
Of the noble Kosciusko, when he fell for the
liberty Of Poland. resisting a despotism like
that we are now contending against. The
blue field in which the white eagle rests, is
his native skies, free from clouds. 1t is sim
pie and expressive-can be determined at a
great distance, and is unlike any standard
known. 1t will not alone identify US, but
revive gratefully, the memory of the brave
Pole who, after fghing for freedom with
Washington, raised the same standard in Po-
land. Russia has extinguished it, let US re-
vive it.
