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.

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, In Qoiberon Bsj, asd tliatbs worn theStM.n knd Stripes In the action between the Banger ana the Drake, on May 27following.

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.

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. Raj Liiv.
