When Foraker was governor of Ohio and th# re was talk of returning the captured Confederate flags,be declared “no rebel flags shall be returned while lam governor" A few days since, without any solicitation or suggestion from anyone, he said : "I think it itould be a good thing at thia time to retorn tbe Confederate flag# if our bretben io tbe Booth want them back." Time and conditions have softened tbe fire alarm man’s heart and sobered ” bis judgment, remarks an exchange. A good deal has been said io tbe Madrid dispatches lately about tbe alleged raising of the Spanish flag on American ships off Cobs, says tbe Savannah News It is not known whether this flag incident really oc curred or not, but if it did the A metis cans were witbin the rules of war. Not only may the enemy’s flsg be but bis uniform also. It is provided in tbe navy regulations, however, that if tbe enemy’s flag be raised, it must bo hauled down before a gun is fired, and under no circumstances must an action be commenced or an engage* without the display of the United States ensign. Tbe Georgia Supreme Court has de cided that when a sentence is imposed upon a prisoner and suspended by tbe judge, it cannot be retin forced. Tbe case in point was one in which the sentence Included imprisonment and fine and costs, and tbe trial judge ora dered that tbe sentence be suepepded and tbe prisoner be discharged upon the payment of fine and costs. Some time afterwards tbe discharged prison er was indicted for a repetition of tbe offeoee upon which be bad been form erly convicted and sentenced,.and the judge ordered that the original sen tence of imprisonment be carried out. The order waa resisted, and the Su preme baa upheld tbe resistance. The war has already demonstrated that we know bow to sail and fight ebipe as well as any people io tbe world, and that we can build as good and euostaotial craft as float upon tbe bosom of the deep. Tbe feat of tbe first class battleship Oregon is one well calculated to enhance our self esteem* | She has just performed the longest J high speed voyage for a ship of her class on record, and has reached tbe , end of it in perfect condition. Indeed, < she could turn around and retrace her i course without waiting a minute for repairs. Fourteen thousand miles waa the length of the Oregon’s sprint, and ’ she reached the end of it able, ready I and witling to fight the whole Soanish fleet if necessary.—-Savannah News. 1 .
