Vice la Vienna.
Correspondence Baltimore American.]
A men's wealth Is often estimated in Vienna
by the number of mistresses he keeps, and the
magnifioence of fbeireqnlpagea, diamonds and
dreasea There is no city in the world, not even
Paris, that can rival (he metropolis of Anatria
in sensuality and immorality, and in these re
spects there is a universality of sentiment that
• - quite remarkable. There’ are no establish-
mentfl in Vienne, however, like those which
have proved such a nniaanoe to the eitixena of
lbs Eastern School Dlatriot of Baltimore, for
the reason that professionals of that class do
not exist there. There are, in ahort, no flaunting
courtesans in Vienna, as ars to be sasa on the
streets of Peris, or even In New York or Balti
more. Where virtue is such a rarity there Isno
opportunity for making a specialty of Ties, and
it has no special locality. In thia respect Vienna
wonld appear to the casual visitor more free
from this species of social evil than any other
large eity in the world; but s visit to the found
ling hospital, where there is an average of about
fortv Infante received daily, or the general hos
pital, where Ita illigitimate births arerage thirty
s day. shows ibe pre-eminenoe of Vienna over
all other dtieB in the world. There are twenty
thousand soldiers always in the city, mostly
young men from the provinoes, who conld not
marry if they would, and would not if they
eonld. They have no means to support a wife,
and seldom have money sufficient to pay tbe
church charges for the performance of the mar-
risge ceremony. They een be seen in crowds
with the yonng girls on the Bingstrasse and the
Prater. They form attachments, bnt are never
rxpeoted to merry. Their example is followed
by tbe jonng men in other walks of life, and
I am insured there are fewer marriages in Visnns
than almost any other city of one-third the
population. There seems to be no attempt made
by the authorities or by charob to remedy this
svil, which has become so universal that—
among the laboring clashes especially—there are
few mothers who have husbands.

OLD FLAGS.
An Intcreatlng History.
At a apodal meeting of the New England His-
torlo Genealogical Society, on Wednesday, a pa
per was read on three btstorlo flags. The flag
that inspired the patriotic lines, “The Star
Spangled Banner,” which waved over Fort Mo.
Henry denng the bombardment in 1814. hnng
on one side of the room, and appeal d in
remarkably good stale of preservation. The
fl«g borne by tlie Enterprise, In her ration with
tbe Boxer, in 1813, ornamented the opposite side
of tho ball, thongb it appeared in n very dilapi
dated oondlllon Jn.t over tbe chairman was
suspended tbe fUg which Penl Jon os so prondly
carried on board the Bon Homme Bichard, in
bar famous action with tbe Serapis, which flig
war brought to Boston by Mbs 8. 8. Stafford,
daughter of Lieutenant Btefford, of tbe Bon
Homme Biebard, who came from Trenton to
allow it to be exhibited.
Captain George H. Preble, of the navy, read
paper on three fligs, and npe.king of Ibe flag
worn by the Bon Homme Bleh.rl dnring the
action with the Serapis, September 24, 1779,
said he won’d give reasonable If not convincing
evidence proving it to have been the first Stars
and StrlpeB ever hoisted over an Amerioan ves
sel of war, and the first flag ever sainted by a
foreign naval power. About ten days’ before
tbe battle. Commodore Jones captured A British
man-of-war and her prize, an Amerioan armed
ship called fbe Kitty, eommaeded by Captain
Phillip Stafford. The Englishmen had pnt the
crew In irons, ned on their capture Captain
Jocos transferred the braoeiots to tbe officer-*
and men of the British vessel. The crew of
the Kittv all volunteered on board tbe Bon
Homme Hlohard, in revenge for the treatment
they had receivod from thetr British oeptoti.
Among tbe volnnteers was a yonng men named
James Btyard Stafford, nephew of the oeptain
and father of tbe present owner of Ibe flag.
Being an educated youth, ha received an ap-
po ntment as cfficer on the Biohard.
When tbe battle was raging fnrinualy this
flag was shot away, and yonng Stafford jumped
into tbe sea and recovered it, and was engaged
in replacing it when he was ent down by an
effleer nf tbe Bernpis. When tbe Bon Homme
Biebard was sinking, the fl«g was mixed by a
sailor, transferred by Panl Jones to the Serapis,
and aooompanied him to the Allianoe when be
took oommand of that frigate at Texal, It re
mained on board tbe Allianoe nntil the dose of
Ibe BevolnlloD, when the vessel was sold to
Bobert Morris, tbe great fiasnclar of the times,
and fitted for tbe East India (rede. Shortly
after hereale tbe Secretary of the Marine Com-
niUtoe wrote Llentenant Stafford that by the
advioo nf Commodore Barry, and in considera
tion of his services In replacing Iba flag when
shot sway in the actioD, the oommittae bad de
cided to present to him this flag, the medieine
cheat of the Biobard, and a tower mnsket taken
in the Serapis. This rolio Lieutenant Stafford
preserved nntil hi* death, and on the death of
his widow, August 9,1861, It came Into the pos
session of bis only daughter. Mist Sarah Smith
Stafford, and their present owner. Miss Stafford,
was personally acqnainted with several of the
crew of Ibe Bon Homme Biohard, and aho still
cares for their graven. They often called upon
her father, who wonld show them thia flag, and
wonld express the deepest reverence for It.
One of these sailors. Thomas Johnson, a Norwe
gian, died only a few yoars einoe at the Naval
Asylum In Philadelphia.
Tbe flag is, or was, about eight and a half
yards long and one yard flrn Inches wide, and
is sewed with hempen or flaxen thread, and
contains twelve white stars In its bine nnion.
and thirloen while Btrlpee, alternately red and
white. The stars are arranged In four hori-
xental, parallel lines, with three stars in each
line. Why so small a flag was used, seareoly
larger than a boat ensign of the present day,
may be explained by the action having been
fonght at night, and became of the high ooet
of the English malarial, and the d lfloolty of
proonring it. Tbe flig has been several times
loaned to fairs and festivals. It was exhibited
at tho sanitary fairs in Philadelphia and New
York, and at the great fair in Trenton in 1862.
A piece was ont from the fly of it at the be
ginning of onr late civil war by direotion of
Mia. Stafford, ihe mother of tho present own
er, and sent to President Lincoln. The flag,
with its twelve stars and thirteen atripes, bears
evidence of its age. if not of its authenticity.
After 1794, and up to 1818, the flag established
by law had fifteen stars and fifteen stripes.
Miss Stafford, who was born in Jnly, 1802, re
collects this flxg from April, 1806, when, as a
great favor, she was permitted by her father to
carry it serosa the street in a family moving.
An aged friend of here recollects it, being
told many years before that it was the flag of
the Bon Homme Biohard. It must, therefore,
date before 1T94. Why its nnion has but twelve
stare unless they fitted tt and there wss no sym
metrical plaoe for the odd one, is a mystery. It
has been suggested that only twelve of the col-
onles had consented to the confederation at the
date of its manufacture, bnt that i3 not so. All
the oolonies had confederated before the adop
tion of the sura in 1777, and the consent of
Georgia, the last to give assent, was symbol
ised in the flag of thirteen stripes, alternate
red and white, hoiated by Washington at Cam-
bridge, January 1, 1776. In an agreement
signed by Panl Jodcs and the Captain* of hi*
s'raceo-Ameriean fqnadron. June, IfTti, it was
expressly etipnlaied that the squadron should
fly the flag of the United State*. So we may
be in re tbe Stars and Stripee were flown in tbe
fight between the Bichard and Serapis, t s they
bad been in the fight between the Hanger and
Drake six month* earlier, as Jones himself
stated. The remarkable action between the
Bon Homme Biohard and tho Serapig, fonght
within sight of the shore* of Eoglsnd, exeroised
a* important an icfioence upon our affairs in
Europe »s Aid 'he fight between the Kearearge
and Alabama In reoent times.
Bnt the flag claims a higher significance, as
there ia good reason for believing, on the «n-
thority of Mrs. Patrick Hayee, the niece of Mrs.
Qxrah'Austin, afterwards the wife of Oommo-
aore John Barry, who had the story from her
aunt, it ia stated that the patriotic ladies met at
Philadelphia, in the old Swedes’ Church and
under the direction of John Brown, Secretary
of the new B-iard of Marine, formed or arranged
a fl«g. That flxg was presented to Captain John
Paul’ Jones by Mrs. Mary and Sarah Austin (the
Utter the anct of Mrs. Hayee) In behalf of the
palriotio ladies of the city. After Its presenta
tion, Jones was so enthusiastically delighted
with his flag that he procured a small boat, and,
with it unfurled, sailed up and down th Schnyl-
vilt, to show to the thousands on shore what the
national flxg was to be. I have been unable to
aeoerUin the faota In the case, bnt it was well
known that Panl Jones’ commission to 1]ie
Banger, asd the resolution establishing the
Stare and Stripes aa oar national enaign, wa«
included in the seme aeries of resolutions, and
he left it on record that be was the first to hoist
the new oonstelDUon over an American ship of
war when he took oommand of the Banger, as
ha was the first to have it acknowledged by a
sxlote from a foreign nation In February, 1778,

Her home in Trenton U a museum of Beyoia-
N'xrmow Gauge.—Mr. Hall, of the Oatakill
Recorder, writes to hit paper from Colorado.
He says: “At Golden we were transferred to a
new narrow gangs (three feet) railroad, the first
of the kind I bays seen. The passenger coaches
were neatly and oomforiably constructed, with
double seats on one side and single seats oppo
site one half tbe length of tbe ear, and then al
ternated, to preserre equilibrium. Bnt little
motion, or jer, ia observable, and one rides as
comfortably as npon the New York and Erie
six feet gangs. This road ia a marvel of engi
neering and enterprise, and aa great a curios
ity as oan be fonnd on the oontinent. Some of
its heaviest grades are 170 feet to the mile,
while tbe average is 140 feet. It to oompleted
only to Floyd's Hill, eighteen miles from Golden,
bnt will soon be extended to Georgetown, abont
twenty miles further, with, a branch (now in
operation) to Central City. The roadbed to
nearly all 'made' of masonry, and to a com
plete sncoox-ion of short curves almost the en
tire route. In fact, I do not think there are, in
the entire eighteen miles, forly snooesaive rods
of straight track. Oar party wisely gave the
open, ‘observation ear’ the preference.”
A Bis Bzoosd —The Oape Ann Advertiser
says that in oompiling and collecting tbe statis
tics for tbe “Fiaerhmen’s Memorial and Beoord
Book,” it finds that there have been lost from
Glonoester since 1830—a period of forty-two end
a half years—I 251 lives and281 veasele—valued
at nearly $1,500,000—In the fishing end coast
ing bnsineas, averaging upwards of 29 lives
and six vessels yearly. The value of tha ves
sel* lost ia $1,493,222; their inanranoe, $822,
195, mostly in tbs local offioes. As there it no
record of tbe nnmber of widows and orphans
previous to 1858, It is impossible to get at tbe
correct nnmber, bnt it to probable they wonld
average abont tbe same proportion as those of
the last fourteen yearn—the nnmber of married
men being shoot one-third nf tbe whole nnmber
lost, and averaging two children to a man. This
wonld give, in ronnd numbers, 400 widows and
800 fatberleas children, left destitute by the
disasters of tbe post 42 yearn, an average of ten
widows and 20 children yearly, whioh la not a
large estimate.
New Yoke Nbwsfapeb Gossip —And now
there is a new story afloat to tha effeot that tbe
World newspaper la in the market for sale to tbe
highest bidder; that Mr. Marble, owing to ill
health, desires to retire from journalism; that
the paper is not paying; that tha Democrats

know not if there he any troth in these rumors
which are floating through tbe various newspa

have no more basis now. As a newspaper, tho

The proprietors Avail themselves of the
lull in advertising to present their claims
again to the public. Nothing within the
range of our ability is omitted to make
‘l
the Telegraph and Messenger In all
its editions acceptable to the reader. As
a vehicle of the earliest news on all cur
rent topics— and of careful and candid
exposition, we concede no superior in this
State.
In point of circulation in tho range o.
the country trading with Macon, the dif
ferent editions of the paper are far be
yond competition. They literally per
vade the Central and Southwestern coun
ties of Georgia—addressing and inform
ing almost every merchant and house
hold. *
No business man of Macon can afford
to be without the use of these columns
as an advertising medium. No one abroad
seeking a market for any commodity in
this region can intelligently dispense with
their aid in facilitating that object.
For successive generations these two
papers, united for the past three years in
one, have commanded this great field of
circulation, and their hold on the public
confidence has never been disturbed or
interrupted. "We are to-day with a larger
cash paid circulation than ever before,
and we hope to go on increasing with the
progress of tho country. We do not say
it is tho “largest circulation,” but within
our proper field—where we can carry the
earliest news, it is beyond even approxi
mation by any other journal.

months. Specimen numbers will be for
warded gratis on the receipt of an order
enclosing stamp for that purpose. "We
