Major LAwrence commanded the American fort. His brave band consisted of ooly one hundred and thirty men ; while the force of the British was ninety guns by sea, and Nicholls assaulted the fort by land, with a twelve- pound howitzer, and several hundred marines, sailors, and savages. This affair. was highly creditable to Major Lawrence and his men. The disparity of force was very great; and this disgraceful beating at the outset must have had a considerable enect upon the enemy. Jackson was stii...l more firmly resolved, after this attack, to break up the rendezvous at Pensacola; and on the 6th of November, 1814, he marched against it, demolished all its defences and protections, drove out the British and the savages, and taught Nicholls and the Spanish governor, that there was stiB one country left which was not to be insulted witli impunity by the satellites of despotism.
