    Article Title: Seminole War. Documents Continued. Another two full pages of letters, including responses from Spanish Gov. Marot of West Florida, dealing with Jackson's pursuit of the war against the Seminoles in Florida. Author: Published in: National Intelligencer Place of Publication: Washington, DC Publication Date: 12/15/1818 WASHINGTON. Monday, December 14. We have, to the exclusion of every thing else, to-day concluded the publication of the documents relating to the Seminole war. They are sufficiently long ; but we have no doubt our readers will thank us for having published them. We stated, a few days ago, the number of days' work which had been executed by the detachment of the Army at Plattsburgh, within the last year. At Sackett's Harbor, the men have been hitherto employed in building barracks at that place. By the order of General Brown, which we have copied to-day, it will be seen that the Army is about to be employed, in that quarter also, by direction of the Executive, in the construction of an important military road. A correspondent, who has seen Mr. Williams's motion to reduce the Army, and who was contemporaneously reminded of the defective organization of the militia of the United States, suggests, that the latter should, in the order of things, be made efficient, before the former is made inefficient. Perhaps our correspondent is right. We hope, whatever happens, that the present session will not pass over without an attempt to give uniformity to the organization of the militia, and to impart to it a character of energy and precision.

  • Timeline 1864
    CIVIL WAR TIMELINE 1864 January Radical Republicans are hostile to Lincoln’s policies, fearing that they do not provide sufficient protection for ex-slaves, that the 10% amnesty plan is not strict enough, and that Southern states should demonstrate more significant efforts to eradicate the slave system before being allowed back into the Union. Consequently, Congress refuses to recognize the governments of Southern states, or to seat their elected representatives. Instead, legislators begin to work on their own Reconstruction plan, which will emerge in July as the Wade-Davis Bill. [http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/reconstruction/states/sf_timeline.html] [http://www.blackhistory.harpweek.com/4Reconstruction/ReconTimeline.htm] Congress now understands the Confederacy to be the face of a deeply rooted cultural system antagonistic to the principles of a “free labor” society. Many fear that returning home rule to such a system amounts to accepting secession state by state and opening the door for such malicious local legislation as the Black Codes that eventually emerge. [Hunt] Jan. 1 TN Skirmish at Dandridge. Jan. 2 TN Skirmish at LaGrange. Nashville is in the grip of a smallpox epidemic, which will carry off a large number of soldiers, contraband workers, and city residents. It will be late March before it runs its course. Jan 5 TN Skirmish at Lawrence’s Mill. Jan. 10 TN Forrest’s troops in west Tennessee are said to have collected 2,000 recruits, 400 loaded Wagons, 800 beef cattle, and 1,000 horses and mules. Most observers consider these numbers to be exaggerated. “ The Mississippi Squadron publishes a list of the steamboats destroyed on the Mississippi and its tributaries during the war: 104 ships were burned, 71 sunk.

  • Military History Anniversaries 16 Thru 30 November
    Military History Anniversaries 16 thru 30 November Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests Nov 16 1776 – American Revolution: Hessians capture Fort Washington » During the Revolutionary War, Lieutenant General Wilhelm von Knyphausen and a force of 3,000 Hessian mercenaries lay siege to Fort Washington on Long Island. Throughout the morning, Knyphausen met stiff resistance from the Patriot riflemen inside, but by the afternoon the Americans were overwhelmed, and the garrison commander, Colonel Robert Magaw, surrendered. Valuable ammunition and supplies were lost to the Hessians and 2,818 Americans were taken prisoner. The prisoners faced a particularly grim fate. Many later died from deprivation and disease aboard British prison ships anchored in New York Harbor. Among the 53 dead and 96 wounded Patriots were John and Margaret Corbin of Virginia. When John died in action, his wife Margaret took over his cannon, cleaning, loading and firing the gun until she too was severely wounded. The first woman known to have fought for the Continental Army, Margaret survived, but lost the use of her left arm. Two weeks earlier, William Demont had deserted from the Fifth Pennsylvania Battalion and given British intelligence agents information about the Patriot defense of New York, including information about the location and defense of Fort Washington. Demont was the first traitor to the Patriot cause, and his treason contributed significantly to Knyphausen’s victory. Nov 16 1776 – American Revolution: The United Provinces recognize the independence of the United States.
