A Handsome flag.

-- Two ladies (Mrs. Jno. James and Mrs. Pendleton--have arrived in Richmond from Baltimore, bringing with them a beautiful flage of the confederate States, which is to be presented to the Perrett Guards, of New Orleans, now encamped at Grove Wharf.Ȅ Mrs. James, who presents the flag, has four sons in the Southern Army, two of whom are member of the above-named Company. She experienced many difficulties in her Journey hither; but, with woman's inventive resources, managed to keep the flage concealed, and arrived in safety. We are glad to chronicle this additional instance of patriotism on the part of the ladies of Baltimore. The flag is large and fabricated of the richest silk, and the tassels are of heavy blue and gold bullion. In a circle of fifteen stars is the inscription — Presented by the ladies of Baltimore to the Perrett Guards, of New Orleans.-- Mrs. James, accompanies by party of friends, will go down to the encampment to-day and present the flage in person. The Guards are connected with Col. Hunt's Fifth Louisiana Regiment.
