flag, above described, this is the sickest looking
flag ever beheld. The material is white bunt-
ing. Sewed in the centre of the flag is what is
intended to be representation of a palmetto
tree. 1t looks more like spider than tree.
1t looks like some of the insects saw in San
Domingo. 1t has six or eight branches Il call
them legs) and no leaves, and it has what passes
for trunk but call it bill or a tail. This
tree must have been green in its infancy. 1t
has surrounding it eleven red stars and red
moon, rising. The moon never got very far up.
THE NUMBER OF REBEL FLAGS.
The number of flags captured by the Union
army from rebel troops during the war can not
be accurately ascertained, because many of the
captors stuffed the flags in their knapsacks and
took them home. Many were taken to the vari-
Gus state capitals, and are there displayed as
evidences of valor by the troops Of that state.
The number which the register in the museum
contains is 542 or more than double the num-
Der captured by the rebels. An enumeration of
the flags captured from the rebels, in battle, by
the loyal troops of the various states is given

WEsTBoRo, Aug. 5, 1871.
To the Editor Of the Worcester Spy-Mr. Ed
itor: wish to correct a statement made by the
Hon. Benz. Evans, superintendent of the state
reform school, Westboro, in his note of Aug. l j.,
1871. He says, in relation to the first paragraph
quoted by you from Mr.. SIMPSONS statement,
81 have no knowledge of such scene happen
ing, either in the chair shop or Office What
did hear was this: George I. Newton told me-
one evening as was returning from the depot,
that Mr.. S. B. Newton had been whipping boy
or boys in the bathing ROOM while he was in
cellar under room adjoining it, and that he
counted large number of blows. Upon inquiry
of my assistant, l learned that he had taken
in several boys for misdemeanors, and that the
blows counted, if, as Mr.. G. T. Newton says,
were distributed upon several, rather than upon
one, as alleged"
Now, what | did report to him was this: As
we were returning from the depot he asked me
what the news was. l told him nothing new,
only that there had been some pretty smart
whipping done during his absence. He asked
me by whom. told him by Mr.. S b. Newton.
He asked me what boy was whipped. told
him that | could not think of his name. but
could tell him when we got home, and that
others knew more about it than myself. The
boys name that was whipped, at this time, was
Hogan told Mr. Evans that counted forty
six blows. He asked me where he was when
whipped. told him in the chair shop | sun
posed; as | was on the outside of the building
passing 10 the barn, my attention was arrested
by the cry Of boy saying "don't
whip me so, Mr.. Newton" >The win
dows were open and could hear
distinctly the blows and what the boy said, while
the boy was being whipped. | thought would
report the case, but the question with myself
was, what boy is it? what is his name? could
not see him as | was on the outside of the build
ing, and he on the second floor of the building
in the chair shop. The thought occurred to me,
1t being just dinner time, that the boys would
be in at the dinlng-room, and | would ask my
laundry boys what boy came in late. As soon
as l had taken my dinner, went and asked
some Of my laundry boys what boy came in
late. They said Hogan came in late, crying,
and that he got a dreadful muggin, meaning a
whipping. Then knew what boy to report as
being whipped so severely. | went to the
office and told the second superintendent that
there had been boy severely whipped by Mr..
Newton, but conld not then think of his name
He asked me if it was Hogan. | told him il
was and asked him how he knew. He said the
case had been reported already, by another Of
ficer. This officer was in an adjoining room
and heard the cries and whipping; and also.
when Mr.. Newton came down with the boy, saw
what boy it was, and reported accordingly.
Yours, with respect,
GEO. T. NEWTON,
WestborO.

The San Francisco Chronicle speaks thus of
an opium den in that city:
1t is rented by the proprietor to a Chinamau
named All Fook, for $500 per month, who
again sublets various parts. We entered several
apartments, and stranger sight cannot be i'm
agined. The first we visited was about ten feet
in height, sixteen feet in length and twelve feer
in breadth; the only light or ventilation of any
kind WIS by the door, and it was so dark that q
candle had TO be lighted to enable us to inspect
1t. This was lodging house, Heaven save the
mark! and kept by man named All Wa, who
for ten cents night accommodates his coun-
trymen with lodging; and in this place every
night nineteen men sleep. The beds, if they
may be so termed, are nothing but series of
shelves with straw mat on each, audi here,
night after night, these poor wretches pass away
their time smoking opium and sleeping off its
perncious effect, as the proprietor for five cents
extra supplies this drug, the smoking of which
occupies the chief part of the time of the inhab-
itants of McEvoy's building, when not engaged
in their ordinary occupation of thieying for
Mr. Woodruff informed us that there was not
one who frequented that place who was not
thief.
We watched the operation of preparing and
smoking a pipe Of opium. The smoker has
brought to him tray on which is a light,
pipe and small piece of wire, and Jar of
pure opium: the wire is dipped into the opium,
then applied to the candle and cooked until the
perfume arising therefrom suits the smokers
ideas. It is then carefully kneaded on the sur
face OF the pipe, the top of the bowl being COW
cred, with the exception of small hole in the
centre, and when the correct consistency has
been gained, by delicate manipulation with
the wire the opium is worked up into a ball
about the size of a small pea, and inserted
through the lid of the pipe; the smoker then re-
clnes, and placing the bowl Of the pipe against
the candle, draws away at the stem for a few
seconds--the pipe is empty, and the performance
repeated until the smoker becomes stupefied and
falls back in doze to reyel in the sensations
arising from the narcotic. Its effects are de-
scribed as being of a most exhilarating kind.
and if only inhaled in small quantities it ami,
mates the spirits and gives energy to the intel
lectual powers, and is then followed by a state
OF quiet, pleasant languOr until sleep succeeds;
but it is only by increasing the dose that these
effects are reproduced. The soporific effects are
then of longer duration and the symptoms Of
debility are greater, gradually but surely lead
ing TO sOftening of the brain.
