The following explain alton of the colors and
sym bolical Gaming OF the Stars and Stripes
was written by member Of the Continenta
Congress, to whom, with others. was COM
mitted the duty Of selecting flag for the
infant Confederacy. The Stars of the new
flag represent the new constellation or Stars
rising in the West. The idea was taken
from the constellation Lyra, which, in the
hands of Orpheus, signifies harmony.
The blue in the field was taken from the
edges of the Coveuanters' banner OF Scot
land, significant of the league covenant OF
the United Colonies against oppression, in
yolving the virtue of vigilance, preseVer-
ance and justice.
The Stars were 10 a circle, symbolizing
the perpetuitY of the Union; the ring, like
the circliDg serpent of the Egyptians, signi-
Tying eternity.
The thirteen stripes showed. with the
stars, the number of the United Colonies,
and denoted the business ordination of the
States of the Union, as we'll as equality
among themselves.
The whole was blending of the various
flags previous to the Union flag. viz: The
red flag of the armies, and the white of
floating batteries. The red color, which in
the Roman day, was the signal of defiance,
and the blue fidelity, and the white purity

GRKFrED INTO THE ARMY.-We can't i'm :

iE. We have requested him repeatedly not
to put our name in-the -box.-But he did,
asd-yesterday "grafted us into the army"
We never thoueht he would "go back on a
Teller what he knew He is perfectly
aware we f1aven't courage enough for brig
adler, much less a common soldier. And
then we are peace man-a more OF peace
man now than ever. Wouldn't care II the
rebels should lay down their arms amor
row and give up, in fact would be rather
glad of It. But we suppose Uncle Sam
wants us Just as bad as we don't want to go
aud that's pretty bad.
The army needs men, must have men,
and our advice is, that all should volunteer.
We always advocated that way of raising
men. It is decidedly moro agreeable to
those who don't want to go, and does away
with the draft. Are more in favor OF that
system than ever before. Wouldn't even
object to have an able-bodisd alien volun-
teer to 60 as our substitute. Well consent
to stay at home aud look after his business,
ii it's profitable. ..
However, we must say we have felt a
spriDkliug of patriotic pride since we have
been ia the service of our country. 1t is a
glorious thing to die for ones native land (,

homes. - s.F n

We would especially requestour friends,
II they have any respect for our feeliDgs,not
to continually remind us of our misfortu ne
by saluting our ears with, chow are you,
conscript?" We haven't heard it over five
hundred times in the last twelve hours.
W We are not to blame for being con-
script. five could have our way, we would
have the drawing over again. There are a
large number in the ward we would rather
see go than go ourselves and wouldn't quar-
rel with them about making better soldiers.
We have in our mind several who would
make altogether better marks for rebel bull
lets than we would. But 1t seems Uncle
. Sam wants us, and as we haven't S300right
handy, suppose we shall have to go.
N. B.-A suit of second hand clothes for

In the meantime our friends will more
agreeably consult our feelings and wishes by
RETAINING from calling US "conscript," and
quietly placing within our reach ilnminat-
ed portraits of our beloved President and
Secretary Chase. None of less value than
i've dollars accepted.
