THE RETURNED BATTLE FLAGS.

Columbia, June l4.-1t is interest
ing to observe rha differing attitudes
which the old veterans assume toward
those captured battle flags sent here
Dy the war department., aud which
Governor Hayward has turred over to
the ladies OF the Confederate relic
room pending their final disposition
by the next legislature. Ii the wishes
# some of the veterans are carried out
the legislature will neither return
them to the survivors Of the commands
TO which they belong nor make provis-
ion for their preservation elsewhere,
but vi i'll order them taken cut auc
nurued.
In some few instances the survivors
have made application to the governor
to get possessed Of these reminders ct
that great struggle, and occasionally
veteran floats into the relic room
and bas ft-of delighted ecstacy at
the sight of tie torn and tatte1ed and
bulletholed colors But others refuse,
not without some sDow of ScorD. to
even look at the flags, and oecline to
discuss them beyond forcefully init
mating that they have no interest in
captured battle flags.
One of the advocates of the burning
process is Maj. Wade Hampton Man
ming, who saw much service as mem
Der of Hampton's staff.
Zone Of the numerous mysteries l
am unable to solve,' he said to your
correspondents, 81 is how these old vete
rams can 60 up stairs there and work
themselves up into fits of ecstacy
over those flags A captured flag
arouse feeling of poignant regret II
not of actual shame. If had my way
about the matter. and l know many
otbies who think as do about it, the
legislature will have those flags taken
.ut ana burned" !"
Historian 4. Il. Salley agrees with
Maj5r Manning that few If any OF
these flags were actually captured.
Que or two OF the regimental flags
might have been captured in an en-
gagement, as frequently almost entire
regiments r bligades were taptureo
or wiped cut But in the case OF the
garrison flags. which form a majority
OF these returned, probably not one
was actually captured. When Sherman
occupied this territory the garrisons
on the coast withdrew and left the
flags flying fer the purpose of misiead
ing the enemy. In the case Of Fort
Sumter and other points arrangements
were made to hlrw ur the fonts, but
the tases failed.
Recently a Louisville firm sent here
FOR Photographic negatives Of the
flags, saying they could use the
phot, graphs of the flags il adv tiae-
mentS az the general reunion IN Louis

were retained here and though the

HANDLING MONEY.

The Time II Takes to Count a MIL
lion one Dollar Bills.
A number Of newspaper correspond
ents in the national capital were dis
cussing treasury department affairs
and the amount Of money handled by
the officials when the question arose,
''How long does it take for the women
experts in the treasury to count a mil
lion new one dollar notes. and how
long does 1t take to count a million old
one dollar notesT" This question was
taken to the treasurer, who authorized
one Of his subordinates to prepare the
following memorandum:
AS to the time it viii require to count
one million dollars. you are informed
that in handling new notes an expert
IN this Office could count in a day Of
eight hours about fifty thousand dol
lars. OF course this refers to notes Of
the denomination Of one dollar. In
counting gold certificates Of the de
nomination Of ten thousand dollars
each it would require but a short time
TO count one million dollars.
AT this rate twenty days would be
occupied in counting one million dollars
represented by notes Of the denomina-
ton Of one dollar. However, it is hard
" possible that any one could keep up
TO these figures for such a period, and
it would be safe to add FIVE days and
say that one million paper dollars could
be counted in twenty-five days.
OF silver dollars, forty thousand may
be counted in a day Of eight hours.
which rate. if adhered to, would finish
the one million dollars in twenty-five
days. but it would be well to add five
days here for the same reason and
make it thirty days for counting a mil
lion silver collars.
In counting old notes the conditions
are much changed. There are i've diff
ferent kinds Of paper curency-gold
certificates. silver certificates, United
States notes (greenbacks), treasury
notes Of 1890 and national bank notes.
Remiuances Of mutilated currency
may contain all these different kinds Of
currency. They may not be assorted
properly by denominations and may be
badly muulated. Where cases Of this
kind occur the count is tedious and
slow. but assuming that the currency
sent IS in accordance with regulations
an expert could on an average count
fifteen thousand dollar notes day
This would require about seventy days
to count q million one dollar bills in
old notes Of various kinds Of paper
currency.
