he was there, taking a very active part in tht ceremonies, if the reports of his superior officers are entitled to credit as jf course they are You. must know first of the situation

tt New Orleans on the dawning of this New Year's day, and that can be told in few words. General Jackson had on Christmas day jinn) men. 20 pieces of artillery, ind two armed schooners with which to defend the city; and the defense of New Orleans meant the defense of the state of Louisiana and the entire Mississippi valley. The whole British army consisted of 7.000 land troops, with a fleet numfjerlna: more than 50 vessels of all sizes and rigs, not a few 5f which wer well armed. Two days after Christmas the enemy had succeeded in destroying one of Sen. Jacksons vessels, the schooner

Caroline, thus leaving him only the chconer Louisiana, and 2i hours later l battle was fought in which the Amercans gained a slight advantage. Our people had thrown up t breastn Ikrnx -v 1 - - - ,

It was soon pos sible to roll him over. There wasn't enough strength left in my body to keep an upper hold, but over and over

we went until we struck the swamp, and that which I thought would be the death of me proved my advantage. "We had wallowed in the soft mud and water until we must have looked , like clay images when I let go my hold to grip him by the head, and, putting , forth every ounce of muscle, managed ! to eo far turn It that his face was ' pressed deep Into the mud.

Then came New Year's morning, when both armies were hidden under t dense fog which did not lift until nearly eight o'clock; but as soon as it was possible to see surrounding objects the British opened fire from their Oatterles. and It seemed much as if very gunner aimed at the house In which was Gen. Jackson s headquar ters In less than ten minutes the

building had been struck by more than a hundred shot and shell, and the commander in-chief. Tith his staff, was forced to seek some other placs from which to direct the troops in the battle ihen just beginning American Fire Effective. As s matter of course, the American r'ins had not been silent while the MManf was pouring into the city such

on the levee, and those in front of our position, until the enemy began to un derstand that hogsheads of sugar of fered a poor resistance to a solid shot, for immediately one was knocked into splinters its contents ran out. thereby tnaking big breachea in fh works. When this battle of the guns had "onttnued for an hour or more, with the American lines comparatively un harmed and the enemy's batteries showing here and there great gaps

which told that they would be speedly demolished unleaa there was a .hange in the method of fighting, the Hiitlsh made a determined attack on the left of Gen Jackaon's line, which extended Into the swamp, and my grandfather was among those sent forward to meet It. And now to tell the story from my grandfather's own lips, as it were: When Coffee'a Tenneasee regiment, of which I was a member, gained that portion of our line which the British were threatening, they were advanc Ing on the charge, most likely thinking to frighten us by that long line of glls tening ateel bayonets, but we had gone there for Just such kind of work.

and I venture to say that never one of i

us showed the white feather. "We poured Intc their ranks a show r of lead which cut many a wide gap. but the Britishers only closed up the line, coming forward like a machine, and showing us that Americans were not the only ones who knew how to die at such a time ' Well, for a few moments they actually overran us with that line of steel points, and, having once discharged our weapons, we had no chance to reload The rrlv thing for us. who did not intend to be put out of the fight until It couldn't be helped, was to grap

ple with that red coated machine, for we couldn't get near enough, owing to

the bayonets, to strike a decent blow with our clubbed muskets. "It was as rough and tumble a fltht as I ever saw, even when the com batanta were unarmed, and the fact

happened to be me. ' Come up here, you blasted Brit lsher" the best friend I had In the

regiment shouted, as he pulled me back by the collar of my coat, and I wasn't much more than a half drowned kitten in his clutch

'"Let go of me, you idjut" I yelled M soon as It was possible to get some Oi the mud out of my mouth. Don't j you know your own comrade?' "The Britisher wasn't anybody's fool. and. of course, he understood just what a mistake had been made. He came up on his feet like a steel spring i and while my comrades were crowing ! over having raptured one of the enemy, as they supposed, he took to his heels, running like a deer, w ith the i mud falling off of him in flakes until J some one saw what kind of a uniform ho wore. "In all that squad only s slncle man had a charge in his gun. and he flred at the fellow, but it was the wildest

I knew how to the blundering fellow who had not only lost me a prisonei, but came very near finishing the choking which the redcoat had begun. Final Result of Battle. "Then the battle was well nigh over." my grandfather alwaya said at this point In his story, and as to the result of the engagement he would give me a well worn slip of printed paper, from which I could read the fol lowing. "Toward noon the fire of the British visibly slackened, while that of the Americans was unceasing. The bat teries of the foe were crushed and broken. The sugar hogsheads had been converted into splinters and their contents, mingling with the soft earth.

search or safety, and. under cover vt the ensuing night, crawled suilenlv back to their camp, dragging with them over the spongy ground s part of their cannon, leaving five of them a spoil for the Americana."

In the flKht that day the American lots was 11 killed and 23 wounded while 20 of the Britishers were found desd on the field, the greater number lying near the swamp where the at tack on our lines had been made, and certain It Is that no less than 30 had been disable )
