THE CONFEDERATE FLAG.

How the Design Was Finally Adopted
by the South.
r. T. Beauregard Of New Orleans
gives the following account of the de-
sign of the Confederate flag:
During the battle of Manassas Cen
eral Beauregard had observed the diff
Guilty of distinguishing our own from
the enemy's colors and in order to pre-
vent all errors in the future had de-
termined to adopt In his army battle
flag distinct in color and design. He
at first sought to procure a change In
the Confederate flag itself. and Colonel
w. p. Miles, then chairman of the
house military committee, had caused,
at his request. report to be presented
to that effect. but with no result In
a conference between the then three
senior officers at Fairfax Court House
in September out of four designs for
a battlefag one presented by General
Beauregard was adopted. It was red
field with diagonal blue cross. the
latter edged with white and bearing
white stars. To render it more port
able it was made square instead OF
oblong by order Of General Johnston.
"This beautiful design, by a strange
coincidence. had been previously de-
vised by Colonel Miles and recon-
mended for the Confederate flag to con-
gress. then in session at Montgomery
in March, 1861. 1t had also been pro.
posed by Mr.. Edward G. Hancock. at
the request of Colonel James B. Wal
ton, at New Orleans in the month Of
April. 1t had been offered by Colonel
Miles to General Beauregard in substi-
tuition for one nearly similar in en-
blem and pattern, but different in the
distribution Of colors, suggested to him
by General Beauregard when the latter
was seeking to procure change in the
Confederate flag. And it was now pro-
posed anew to the general by Colonel
Walton, who had Mr.. Hancock's de-
sign. t-
"Thus it will be seen that the design
Of the Confederate battlef1ag was con-
ceived and drawn long before a Union
soldier had tried his skill in water
colors on an original which was not
and could never have reached the
hands Of the generals lamented daugh-
