275 was the raking broadside of the schooner, which com- pletely swept their encampment. Before they had fairly recovered from their astonishment, General Jackson fell upon them like a thunderbolt. Though taken by sur- prise. General Keane ordered his fires to be extinguished, and finally succeeded in forming his men to beat otf the attack. Before order was entirely restored. General Coffee had forced his way into the enemy's camp, and General Jackson was moving upon them in front with equal da...ring and impetuosity.
Notwithstanding the intense darkness, the American soldiers were kept to their duty, and displayed the most praiseworthy gallantry. The enemy were driven from their position, and several successive charges were made, with great success. At length, it was discovered that the troops were falling into confusion, on account of the thick mist which shrouded everything around, and General Jackson thought it best to call off his men. During the remainder of the night they lay on the field of battle, and in the morning fell back to the canal Rodriguez, about two miles nearer the city, where the swamp and the Mississippi approached within a few hundred yards of each other.
