NO. 24.—BATTLE OF NEW ORLEANS—Strangest Conflict in American History. HI fs the story of the strangest battle in all American bistory— Derbaps in the history of warfare. It is also the story of the last battle fought on United States soll against a foreign foe. For nearly three years we had been fighting with Great Britain in the war of 1812. A British army made up of veterans of the Na- poleonte wers and led by Gen. Pakenham, “the hero of Salamanca,” te vaded Louisiana late in 1814, landing at the mouth of the Mississtps? | River and moving north against New Orleans. “ New Orleans was unfortified and was in no condition for defense, | local authorities were panic-stricken. Then it.was that « lean, gnarled- faced Indian fighting lawyer stepped forward and, with ao legal authority for his ection, took charge of the situation. He was Andrew Jackson. Overriding the civic authorities, Jackson opened the jaile and enliste® convicts as militiamen. He swelled his ranks with negroes, with Gulf Quemearcccororny pirates, with dock loafers, He scoured the neighbors An Army hood for planters, hunters, trappers, farmhands, back ve. a Rabble. woodsmen. With a puny handful of “regulars” an@ * militia as a nucteus, he added all this miscellaneous collection to his army, until he had more than four thousand men under hie ; command. Most of these had never been in battle. Many of them had ne j Weapons. The majority were without uniforms, Against this rabbie was marching a picked army of British veterans about fourteen thousand strong, The British advanced steadily and several indecisive fights occurred between their vanguard and the Americans. Then, on Jan. 8, 1815, come the climax of the campaign. Jackson had ranged bis force behind redoubts oe aa On of the Mississipp! itean Mtoe thoes bey Cae rg ho “4 “jeand.

Pakenham would not wait, bus went ahead without them. There were about eight thousand men in the detachment he led against J n's position on the left bank. The British came within six’ feet of the American works beforg & shot was fired by the defenders. Not a head appeared above the earthe works, the cotton bales, the molasses casks. Then, at a word, the oe who opened fire. The backwoods sharpshooters, in four alternating ranks, a fusillade that did not slacken for a moment. These were men ‘Sick off a flying bird with a rifie shot at a hundred yards. The redoontay” offered them a mark they could not miss. At the same time the batteries poured an avalanché of grape, shrapnel and shells into the charging | British ranks. ‘Under that hat) of death no mortal assailants could hold their own.

Another feature that made the battle one of the The Vi most unusual in all history was that it was fought e Victor —§ Guring time of peace. For, by the Treaty of Ghent, the A war had been officially ended sixteen days eariier, ie though news of its cessation had not yet reached America. Still another odd feature of the affair was that the victorious Jackson was promptly arrested by order of the civic rulers of the city he SAE ETRE RT had saved, on a charge of having exceeded his authority.
