Jackson in- forms the secretary of war of the occurrence, and the agent is dis- missed from office. In 1812, war is declared between Great Britain and the United States. The news has scarcely reached Nashville when General Jackson is in the field, and, through the governor, tenders to the president the services of two thousand five hundred volunteers of his division, headed by himself. Admirable promptness! He had long anticipated that very day. He had noted, with growing im- patience, every ne...w aggression of Great Britain upon our com- merce, and every new impressment of our seamen. The seven thousand American sailors, torn from their country's flag, and their own firesides, had, every one, a voice in Jackson's heart. The old scar on Jackson's arm throbbed and tingled at each fresh English insult ; the boy of fourteen was born again, and lived again, in the man of forty-five — and at the first whisper of war his impatient sword leaped, lightning-like, from its scabbard ! Government accepts in part the offer of Jackson, and orders him to organize and equip a force of fifteen hundred volunteers, and march on New Orleans.
