ANDREW JAC Wednesday Was the Anniversary | of the Battle of New Orleans It was a Famous Victo' “This is a day of all others when | the British jingo press should sing small as to what should befall the| arms of the United States in the event of a conflict with Great Brit- ain,’ says the Kansas City Times of day when the heart of every American citizen should be overflowing with patriot- ism and grow strong in the contem- plation of heroic achievements. It January 8. “It is a day calculated to become a great American holiday. It is, in short, Jackson day, the anniversary not, as many suppose, of the birth of rugged old Andy Jackson, but of the battle of New Orleans, when he} administered to Peckenham and the ish army fresh} flower of the Eng from the victory over Napoleon | Bonaparte the most decisive and} disastrous defeat ever suffered by | the British a So long as nd ht 8 re recital of heroic deeds the Battle of New Orleans will be remembered. It was nota skirmish or a flurry, but a fierce conilict between men trained in the art of warfare. The prize was not treasure, or even re- venge, but a foothold by the British on the west banks of the Mississippi *h would haye enabled them to write the treaty of Ghent over again and perhaps carve out another Canada from what is now the most productive portion of the United States. It has been the melancholy fate of some historians to see nothing in the battle of New Orleans save a postbellum showing of teeth between the English and the United States. It is true the last of the wars with England was at that time ended. The treaty had been signed, and nothing remained but the carrying out the conditions. But the troops from New Orleans did not know this. They fought with the grim determination and heroic courage of men who thought that the whole outcome of the war depended cn them. Nor can it be doubted, had the British won that conflict, that their greed for land would have overcome their love of honor, and river, whi the treaty, no news of which had reached New Orleans, would have been thrown to the wind. The battle of New Orleans occur- red January 8, 1815. Gen. Andrew Jackson, commanding the depart- ment of the south, exercising his customary souud sense and hard- headedness, had cleared the enemy from Florida, disregarding alike the warnings of the home government and the mutterings of the Spanish, who still held Mobile and other southern cities, and who, but for their hereditary hatred of England, would long since have joined to crush the colonies and extend their own possessions. In December, 1814, Sir Edward Packenham, broth- er-in law of the Duke of Wellington, had landed near New Orleans with 12,000 of the finest troops from the British army, trained through long service on the Spanish peninsular and fresh from the gloriously-won field of Waterloo. | Against this army Jackson bad} 6,000 soldiers of the south, trained ie é Though in fighting Indians and British and| with the cautious bravery of border} warfare in their hearts, Jackson se lected a strong position between the | Bienvenu and Chalmette plantations completely proach to the city. The British, confident in their superior numbers and perhaps blinded by the briilian- cy of their own: past deeds, made the mi most impregnable p: ke of advancing on the al ion of the Americans. As they came into range the gailant red coats were cut down by the unerring tire of Jackson's men until human endurance was at anend. In] than the British were in retreat, leav- 2,600 killed anc os wounded, a palf an hour American was eight killed thirteen wounded. ‘Never, says the historian, ‘has a battle been fous ght between armies a : of ci pari the pride of ol sd Ex pletely and si | the digestion of other foods.
