During April, and early summer of 1814, the British invaded many ports along the north Atlantic coast. In the middle of August a fleet of sixty sail under Admiral Cockburn entered the Chesapeake bay, and landed six thousand men at Benedict, Md., on the Patux- ent river. This force reached Bladensburg, dispersed the Militia, and on the 24th of August the Capital fell into the enemy's hands, and by order of General Ross, the Capital, President's House, Ex- ecutive offices, Navy Yard and ships were burned. On the 11th of September the enemy's fleet appeared at the mouth of the Patapsco river, fourteen miles below Baltimore.
On the day following, a force of six thousand men, veterans from Wellington's Army, was landed at North Point. On the 13th they were met by General Stryker with three thousand Militia, who fell back after a sharp skirmish, in which the British General Ross was killed. After the American retreat had been continued for a time, their artillery opened fire, and the engagement became general ; during which General Stryker contended against great odds until late in the afternoon, when he was obliged to retreat. In the meantime, bomb vessels from the British fleet had opened fire on Fort McHenry from a distance of two miles, and were gradually approaching, when a heavy fire from the fort compelled them to regain their first posi- tion. The bombardment continued through the day and night, during which time the inhabitants of Baltimore awaited the result, anxious and sleepless. But, " By the dawn's early light " they saw that " our flag was still there." On the morning of the 14th the bombardment ceased, and during the following night the land force of the enemy retreated and were followed by their fleet. During

WAR OF 1812.
September, October, November and December, the English were operating along the coast bordering the Gulf of Mexico. An invita- tion was extended to La Fitte, the Pirate, who had been outlawed by the United States, to join in the invasion, and he had refused, but under offer of pardon by the Governor of Louisiana, he joined the Americans.
General Jackson, who had been engaged in the Creek war, marched to Pensacola, and captured that place on the 7th of November. Learning of danger to New Orleans, he repaired to that place. Reaching it December 2, he began active preparations for defense. He constructed a breast-work, eight miles below New Orleans, ex- tending from the river on his right, to a cypress swamp on his left. On the 28th of December, and before his defenses were complete, the British inade an attack, but were forced to retreat. In this af- fair the British force amounted to fifteen thousand Regular troops, while the Americans numbered six thousand men and chiefly raw Militia. On January 7 the American defenses were complete, and the English made preparations for an apparently successful attack, and on the morning following they moved on the American works with twelve thousand men in two columns, supported by a reserve, and a detachment sent to operate against the right of Jackson's works. Perfect silence prevailed behind the American intrenchments until the enemy came within effective range of the batteries, when a de- structive fire was opened.
The British pressed on until within range of the muskets of the Militia, when the fire became so destructive as to throw them into confusion. In attempting to restore order the British commander, Sir Edward Packenham, was killed. Two of his generals, Gibbs and Keane, succeeded in moving their columns forward the second time, to meet greater destruction than at the first advance. The ad- vancing columns broke in the third attempt to rally them, and Gibbs was mortally wounded and Keane seriously. The remaining general, Lambert, being unable to check the flight of the enemy, retired to his encampment. The detachment sent against Jackson's right met with greater success, and had succeeded in driving the right of the line from their position, but the disastrous repulse of the enemy in front caused the British Colonel Thornton to retreat across the river. On the night of the 8th the British abandoned their camp and in all haste they re-embarked and left the county. The British lion had cuffed and clawed poor Tray until he was ready to fight for his rights. On the 24th of December, previous to the battle of New

GROWLS.
The muster-out rolls or military record of the New York State troops who served in the war of 1812 are and have been in the office of the Third Auditor of the Treasury at Washington for several years. As they embrace the muster out of the members of Van Vechten's Battalion and Kellogg Artillery, which appears to be the
86

only military record in existence ; without data from them the men cannot be arranged in order with record of service and a full roster of those serving given. After meeting with unexpected success in col- lecting data of other wars and receiving encourgement and assist- ance from comrades, the public, and chief of bureau, and librarian in our State, it is extremely disappointing, after making three ap- plications and stating the purposes for which information is wanted, and from New York State documents, to meet with refusal and equivocation and silence. I can conceive of no irregularity in a re- quest for information solely for historical purposes, and I can find no justification for withholding it. There may be causes or reasons of a morbid nature, such as affliet some persons when feeding at the public crib and enjoying the blessings of life and liberty, secured to them by the blood and suffering of the common soldier whose record I wish to set up, that he may not be entirely ignored and forgotten by those who are competent to appreciate his services.
Aside from the roster of Kellogg's Artillery, the names of veterans given and other data, are obtained by inquiry and from the recol- lections of those related to or formerly acquainted with them. There appears to have been two levies for troops from this county during the war of 1812 and 1814. Troops raised under the first levy serv- ing for a longer term by reason of the war closing about three months after the men under the last draft took the field. It ap- pears that the men under the last call arrived at Plattsburg on the day following the battle and were in no engagements with the enemy during their service. I infer also that the first levies were of Van Vechten's Battalion and were stationed for a time at both Platts- burg and Sackett's Harbor. I give all information of the infantry Militia obtainable under such difficulties as attend inquiry after men whom one cannot name or describe.
