that he had not anticipated, so Lord
Cornwaiiis's movement TO North Caro-
lima awakened The Wings Of Warsaw
and MeckienburS, to efforts Of daring
and active hostility, which entitled
them to receive from the British Com
mander the distinguishing epithet of
'the Hornets Nest Ga this occasion
was ELECTED the first spark Of that mi
litsry Senius which was destined on
the plains Of New Orleans to shed so
much iustre on the American arms
General Jackson, then fourteen years
Of age, took the field on the advance
Of Curnwaiiis. Little was it imagined,
that the obscure STRIPPING who was con-
temptuous'y ordered by British Off
Ger to clean his boots, and sabred for
his disobedience, would be honored
with the greatest triumph ever acqui.
