MARES SEsT.-'Tho Mercury, in ils issuo of yes
terday, in speaking of Unito1 States flag
recently raised at tho Citadel says: s'The Gag has
twenty.six Of its stars in diamond cluster in tho
centrc Of tho Uniun, and tho ten others disposed
around tho border of tho Union, two in cach cor
ner and ono in the centre OF tho bottom border of
tho Union anu ono in the cenre of tho top border
OF tho Union. Whether Intentionally or not, this
Hog is emblenatic far il separates ten Of the
stars from tho remaining twenty
1t 10 to be remarked that American flags wcro
manufactured with tho stars similarly disposed
before tho war. The Mercury, usually 30 accurate,
is hero at III. This, however, is cxausabc
when oil Tho circumstances in the case are CON
sdercd.

NA1URALIzED FonEIoNERs.-As there appears to
be an erroneous impression abroad among our
adopted citizens of foreign BIRTH that their right
to register has been questioned wo have been re-
tlucsted by member of one of tho Boards of Re-
gstration in this city to state that, as fur ns he
know, NO such objection has ever been made:
certainly there was no desire disposition to pre-
vent foreign citizens from voting
There is not the shadow of my authority for
such aconstruGtion OF tho onth in any OF tho Re-
construction Acts, and wo feel inclined, therefore.
to believe that this rumor ia altogether incorrect.
We hope that mono OF our fellow-ctizonB Of foreign
birth will allow this any other consideration to
prevent them from registering. Lot them not do
Jay too long; procrastinaton 10 always dangerous
whom brought in relation with duty.
