A Check to the Palmetto flag.

--The Portland (Me.) Daily Advertiser, Jan. 30, says:

‘ The master of a brig just arrived at this port from Havana, reports that on the day previous to her sailing, about 10 a. m., a small brigantine, from Charleston, came in past the Moro Castle with the Palmetto flag flying, or rather the stripes with one star, but immediately, by order of the officer in command at the Moro, brought to anchor under its guns, and kept there until about 3 p. m., when the flag of the Union was hoisted, and she was permitted to proceed up the harbor.
