Mr. (’. here referred to various passages in the work,
to show that when (ieneral Jackson arrived in L'm.-i
ana lie was induced, hy the n presell tat ions of poisons
who i ujoyed lus eonfitleiice, lo entertain suspicions of t !,c
fidelity of a large j ortit n of t lie inhabitants o I Lone ana
—particularly tho-a; of I'Yench extraction ; that, under
tin* influence t f this fci ling, he recommended to the l a
gislature. then in session, that the Ini hr its nn-jms act
should l>" suspended—which, howi ver, they rein ed tu
do; that [jouallii r, a member from en« of the interi >r
parishes, was one of those who warmly opposed this
measure, as un necessary, and dangerous to the liberties
of the citizens of the State. 'Tim battle, was I .light ami
won; and w hatever might have been the suspicions ot
(ieneral Jackson hrjhrr,, they ought now to have been
disjM !|.m!—tiny were nobly refuted at the runnnii’s
, mouth. It was a remarkable fact, (andone be to. k ph .i
urf iu iceiirring lo.) that, though Louisiana had been
hut recently admit :»d to this great American family i f
Stales; Although the attachment of n*-cMiz ns to tins

that strength it had since attained; although hrrpopula

The srijucl ik known. The e nemy was defeat* d. On
the 2bd January sol* inn thanksgivings were ©fibred up
I r the d* liv* ranee of the country from the eminent per
ils that had environed it. On the 12th of February tlu
enemy \v« re at M ihile, If/fl miles off. On the 20th Gen
• ral Jackson received tin* flicial intelligence that a treaty
of peace had hern wgoimted. This intelligence was
communicated by the commander of the enemy's forces.
Rut on the 22d it was confirmed from another ijuarti r.
No on** doubted the fact, although it might not have be* n
prurient fur the commander in chief to have acted on it,
and disbanded his forces.
\meng those who had borne ar auive part in tie: cam
pa ion, were a number of emigrants from France. Their
own country was then at peace with Great Rritain; and
they were not bound to take up arms against her in de
fence of the 1 nited States. Rut they rushed voluntarily
t i the conflict, and not only displayed that martial spirit
