16. While the greater part of the American army was thua employed in Canada, the British made an attack upon the impor tant post of Sackett s Harbor. On the 27th of May, their squadron appeared before the town. Alarm guns instantly as sembled the citizens of the neighborhood. General Brown, of *he New- York militia, commanded in chief, his whole force amounting to about one thousand men. By his orders, a slight breast work was hastily thrown up, at the only place where the enemy could land. Beh...ind this, he placed the militia, the regu lars under colonel Backus forming a second line. 17. On the morning of the 29th, one thousand British troops landed from the squadron. They advanced toward the breast work. The militia, seized with a sudden panic, fled in confu sion. Colonel Mills, in a vain attempt to rally them, was mor tally wounded. The regulars, after a spirited resistance, were compelled to retire towards the town, but in their retreat they took possession of the houses on the road.
