A Difference.

We copy the following from one of our
exchanges. 1t meets the case so fairly, and
expresses our sentiments SO well that we ap-
propriate it without further apology.l
At the last term of Court at Bellefonte, in
Centre County, the Grand Jury, under their
oaths and afirmatiene. presented the Demo
cratic Watchmdn, the Breckinridge organ of
that county, to the court, as being in the
practice Of encouraging the rebels now in
arms against the Government, by expressing
sympathy and agreement with them, the duty
of acceding to their demands, and dissatis-
faction with the employment of force to over
come tnem."
During the same term of Court, and at the
same town, the Democratic Convention of
Centre county, passed resolution cordially
endorsing the course pursued by the Demo
cratic Watchman."
The case, therefore, stands thus: the Grand
Jury of Centre county says the Watchman is
in the practice of encouraging the rebels, &C.,
and the Democratic Convention endorses the
course of the Watchman.
1t is only necessary to add that this same
Democratic Convention also nominated Wm
FL. Blair for Senator, Union men, which
will you sustain, the Grand Jury of Centre
county, or the Democratic Convention

DENMoCRAT-

was enacted, that permanent return should
be made to the original number of thirteen
stripes, and that the number of stars should
correspond to the number of States, thus
symbolizing the Union as it might be at any
period, and also as it was at its birth. At
the same time it was suggested that the
stars be made into single star-a sugges
ton which we occasionally see adopted at
the present time. AS to the arrangement of
the constellation, no particular order seems
to be observed it is sufficient if all the
stars are there.
The stripes of white declare purity and
innocence, the red gives forth defiance to
cruelty and oppression, the blue is embla-
matical of perseverance, vigilance; and JUS
tice, while the whole speaks for the Union.
" one and inseperable" The rules as to the
size of the flag are, that It's length be one
and half of It's breadth, and the blue Jack,
with the stars, be square, occupying the
space of six stripes. Of all the national
flags in existence, it's, to the unprejudiced
eye of taste, the most lovely banner that ever
foated upon the breeze. And long may it
wave, as it ever has since it was first un-
furled, unsullied and triumphant.

And nature folds them in her heart, and keeps
them safe from wrong.

And License, with the hungry brood that haunt

'SwEAR HIM AND LET HIM Go.D-The
best piece of satire upon the leniency OBJ
served by the authorities il this section, IN
reference to rebels found committing depre-
dations, is in the shape of a story which is
told, we believe, by Governor Pierpont. As
the story goes, some of the soldiers in Gene
raj Cox's camp, down in Kanawa, recently
caught large rattlesnake. The snake man
ifested most mischeivous disposition,
swapping and thrusting out his forked tongue
at all who came near it. The boys al last
got tired of the reptile, and as nobody wan
ted such dangerous companion, the ques-
ton arose, what shall we do with him ?''
This question was propounded several times
without an answer, when half drunken
soldier " ho was lying near upon his back,
rolled over upon his side, and relieved his
companions by quietly remarking "Damn
it, swear him and let him CO."

His tory of our National Flag

Ills tory OF our National Flag.
The history of our National flag is of ex-
ceeding interest," at this time, while traitors
are menacing its sacred folds. The banner
Of St. Andrew was blue, charged with
saltier or cross in the for of letter x, and
was used in Scotland as early as the eleventh
century. The banner of st. George was
white, charged with red cross, and was
used in England as early as first part of the
fourteenth century. BY royal proclama-
ton, dated April 18th, 1706, these two eros
es were joined together upon the same flag,
forming the national flag of England. In
1901, when Ireland became part of Great
Britain, the present rational flag of Eng
land, known as the Union Jack, was COM
pleted. The ancient flag of fEngland formed
the basis of our American banner. Our
Colonial ancestors raised various flags, but
none of them were Incorporated into our
present emblem. When Washington took
command eff the army at Cambridge, Mass,
January 21st, l776, he unfurled the new
flag of thirteen stripes Of alternate red and
white, having on one of its corners the red
and white crosses of st. George and st. An
drew, on a field Of blue. This was the
standard borne into the city of Boston by
the American army after the evacuation by
the British troops. 1t showed that the colo
MES claimed to be part of the British EN-
pire, and yet made known the fate of the
thirteen colonies. Congress, on the 18th
day of June. TIT, resolved, C That the flag
of the thirteen United States should be thir-
teen stripes, alternate red and white, and
that the Union be thirteen white stars in
blue field ;" but 1t was not till the Sd of
the next September that the resolution was
made public, and the first flag of the kind
was made. On this flag the stars were ar,
ranged in circle. The battle of Saratoga
was the first action into which it was borne.
In 1894, two States having been added to
the Union, it was voted that the alternate
stripes, as well as the circling stars, be fif-
teen in number and thus enlarged, the
flag was borne through the war of 1872
After the war was ended it was found that
if a new stripe was were to be added for
each new State, the flag would soon become
so large as to be unwieldy, so in 1878 it
