ritILAI)EWHIA,
FRIDAY EVENING,.SEPTEMBER. 13.
For the Gazette of the United States.
Mr. EjDl TCR >
I often regret that ad of folly in a former
C ong re fs, by which the flag of the United!
States was altered from the original thirteen
ftrlpes—-that speaking (I fain would ad£
that sacred) record of a ftrug'gle which
gained for us Independence.
If the charatter of the national flag is to
be marked with inffafcility, by adding to it
.1 stripe on the acceflion of eveiy new state,
its rclpedlability will be impaired. Nations
abroad will Leatalofs to recognize the
fickle badge, and the ilripes, already too ma
py, will in ti;become so multiplied e$ ;:ot
to be diflingtiilhtrd at the short diitance of a
pistol fliot. These narrowed and multiplied
lines of red and white would atTumc the
blank appearance of a uniform pisk-cohr-d'
field.
Such frequent cha!lg"es too, would prevent
our merchants and mariners from having
any fettled ideas concerning their national
colors. We might.expert .to fee flying* irf
in our ports, as the flag of the Union, al
niofl every kind of device that ignorance, in
attention or caprice cm invent. Already,
indeed, luch motley appearances'are not un
frcquent. I have walked, on a gala day,
along the wharves of this city, and have
seen displayed from the shipping, an infinite
variety of deviefs—intended, no doubt, as
American colors ; but the intention was all.
There were to be seen flags, jacks and peir
dants, fotne bearing eagles of all attii#des
and colors—none of which, by the bye, had
any bufiiiefs. their ; others with stripes of
varied and numbeTs ; other?, again
with, and some without the new couftella
tion—which now twinkled in the field, and
now in the quarter, as it happened to suit
the correct iancy of its owner. Sometimes,
the celestial azure of the quarter (proper re
sidence of the luminaries) would be perverted
into 3 white, a Ted or a yellow field, be
fpanpled with star?, variously grouped, and
like the (tripes, differing both in number and
color. 1 here you might have seen blue
Oars, fiery red stars, black stars, and stars of
every color, except the true one Risum
teneatis ! But, Mr. Editor, don't mistake
me. Accuracy in matters of tafte,even re
gulated taste, is not to be looked for in the
merchant nor sea-captain. The taste of the
former is great, to be sure, keenly great—in
the science of tare and tret,', and'the calcu
lation of dollars, cents and half cents. Rut
as to the son of Neptune, the feamn of his
upper works are so well caulked, his gratings
so well lashed, that not a rny of taste can
poflibly leak in. No, Mr. Editor, the re
gulation of our flag mud not be left tofuch
gentry: It must proceed from another, a
; more competent quarter. Let Congress tor
' reft the error, (for the bantling is their own)
| by declaring against all innovations, both in
the national colors and arms,* whether pail
or in future. Let them again gladden the
American eye, by restoring forever, the ori
ginal, the appropriate, the venerable but long
insulted Thirteen Stripes, under whose auf
pitioOs banners America took her Ration •
among the nations of the earth,
But, supposing, Mr. Editor, we should
continue the ridiculous pra&ice of adding a
stripe on the acceflion of every ,new State,
let us fee how it would operate. The de
pendency called the North Western Terri
tory is in itfelf, nearly as large as all the At
lantic States taken together. The other
dependency, named the Mifliflippi Territory
(now under the government of a Bashaw of
one tail), is also of conliderable, though in
ferior, extent. ProvifLn is made for carv
ing out those territories, into States,;/ com
ponent parts of the federal compatt. Now,
tell me—how would you like to fee crowded,
by piece-meal, into the An erican flag 20 or
30 flriijei more ? If the principle of thusN-e
---prefenting every State be established in ,pne
cafe, will it not be called for in extension to
every other ? Thus, then, that which is the
flag in the year 1799, may not be the flag in
1800 ; nor may the flag in 1801 be the fame
with that of 18001—Fit fubje dl for foreign
ridicule !
I will close the present communication
with hinting at the burthenfome expence.s
which such idle changes must impose upon
all ship owners, by the frequency of thus
renewing their colours. It forms, however,
but a minor consideration.
I may pofiibly trouble you to-morrow
with a few more ftriftures. In the mean
time, if my in ode fly woufd l'uffer nie to offer
advice, I should fav, Be
