Puzzling the Danes.

--We find the following in the Bermuda Advocate, of the 18th May:

Whist the steamers Let Her Be and Badger were coaling at St. Thomas's, they continued to fly the Confederate flag at their respective staffs. The authorities sent them orders to haul down the obnoxious ensigns; compliance was refused. The authorities sent off again, giving three hours, and threatening that if the flags were not then hauled down they (the authorities) would have them hauled down themselves. The three hours elapsed and the flags were still flying; the authorities seat off a force to haul them down, when it was found that in each case the flag was nailed to the staff, the halyards removed, and the pole gretted.
