always on the look out for 'squills' and
lankee triclti,' not unfrequently de
ceived themselves in the most ludic-
roi's manner.
In the month of Msy, 1814, Sir Jimes
Toe, with a fleet of vesstls to the num
ber of thirteen, of various sizee, appear
ed off the moulh of the Geneisee.ihreat
oning to annihilate Rochester, and de
filroy every improvement and person in
"the vicinity. Great alarm was created
by this. Messengers were despatched
at once throughout the country for aid.
The -people were aroused like the
i fiery cross of Rhode-rick Dhu the eum-
monj sped, and what, think ye, was the
-result In Rochester there were then
: just thirty-three people capable of bear
ing arms, and about half a dozen came
in to help them. Truly a formidable ar
my to repel an English fleet, and op
pose a clever oOdhot of the British for
ces. The first thing that the little band
of Americans did was to throw up a
breast-work rude and alight near the
' deep hollow, beside 'the .Lower Falls.
'This breasl-work was called Fort I3en-
tier. They then hurried down the junc
tion of the Gennessce and lake Ontario
' because there the enemy declared they
' would land. They left behind them
two old men, -with several amall boye,
to remove the women and children into
1he woods in case the British should
land for the provisions, and the destruc
tion of ihe bridge at Rochester.
The Rochester forces were command
ed by Francis Brown and Elisha Ely,
who acted si captains. Isaac W, Stone
was appointed m.ijor. The Americans
'were elegantly accoutred in various gar--ments
of shapes and makes almost ante
tlelutftan. No two men were dressed
alike. No two men were armed with
the like weapons. Certainly they had
alliirearms; but they were not fashioned
'in the same style. The discipline of
these troops were as curious as their cos
tume and equipments. But if ihey dis
played so awkward front to the warlike
eye, they also exhibited -sagacity and
courage two tjualitiesfluite as much
needed as a pretty uniform and tacties.
The-enemy watched the on-shore pro
'ceedines with considerable 'interest;
They beheld, as they supposed, nun
merou bodies or militia marching to
head quarters, and preparing to give
them a warm reception. To deceive
the English, the forty men marched
and countremarched incessantly through
-the woods, from point to point, in such
a -manner as to convince the soldiers in
the vessels that the whole country was
aroused and preparing for action. The
English thought it was high time to be
'CBUtiousand therefore sent an officer
v.'ith a f.ag of truce to the ahore. One
of the militia captains, with ten of tht
best-looking snd most soldier-like men,,
-were sent to meet the officer. Thf
- men carried their arms ss upright at
mifcht' be consistent with their plan of
being ready for action, by keeping hold
of ihe triggers-
The British officer was astonished,
lie looked all kinds of thing, utterablf
and unutterable, and with a swelling
crtst said:
xSir, do you receive a Bag of truce,
under arms and wiih corked iriggeis?
Excuee me, 1 beg,' said the Ameri
can capiaio, we ere not soldiers, onl)
backwoodsmen and know more obou
felling timber and following the p!ouj
. than of military tactic;' saying whicr
the American, to rectify his first error,
ordered his men to ground arms!
This, of course still more astonished
the Brit M). lie looked indignant
then ?u)iciou5 tlien a little terrified
end at lust delivered a brief meisngn ii
haste, and incontinently aought the flee'
again. He declined (tut the ignoranci
of taelia was leigned to draw the com mo
dore into some enure, and informer)
those who cent him that some Ysnker
trick' was under process ofdevtlopmenf
.The British wanted ihe spoils, bu
they were loou:sj)irious to attempt
landing, if by makings compromise,
they would secure a purl of them. Ac-
rordingly another officer, with snothri
fl ig of truce, was sent to parly. Captain
Francis Brown was this lime deputed to
reeeite the ofi:cer. Brj jvn look a guard
with him.
The Biiiish ofTiu-r lo; ;:d very sus
piciously ujion lli own id upon the
guard, tie conversed with the utmost
caution, and walked as though he ex
pected either to Cod a trap door, or s
springing mine beneath his feet. Af'er
pending a short lime in conversation,
the oflierr suddenly discovered that the
width and clumsy aspect ol Brown
garments betokened something not ex
actly right. He thought that Brown
was a regular officer of the American
umy and that his regimentals were
masked, for some strslsgem, by clumsy
nd hastily made overclothes. Impress--d
with this idos, -the Briton suddenly
grasped Brown's panlaloooa by the knee
exclaimingly hall jocosely, while he
handled the cloth most firmly. 'What s
pity such excellent cloth should be spoil
ed by a bungling tailor.1
Brown smell out the object of Ihe of
ficer's movement, ad quick-witted, he
carelessly replied
'Oh! 1 was this morr.ing preventeJ
from dressing fashionably by my haste
to meet and salute distinguished visi
tors.' The officer then made a proposition
that if the provisions and stores which
might be in and about Rochester, were
delivered up, Sir James Yoe, would
pare Ihe settlements around.
Will you except and comply with
this offer?' Inquired the bearer of the
dig of truce.
'Blood knee deep first! replied Fran
cis Brown, with startling emphasis.
While all this parlythe last clam
of which was enough to affrteht the old
est and toughest soldier an American
officer with his staff, returning from ihe
Niagara irontier, was accidentally seen
passing from one wooded poinl to anoth
er. 1 his with other very curious cir
cumatances, confirmed the Britons in
the beliet that a large American army
was collected.and that the Yankee offi
cers shammed ignorance for the pur
pose of enticing them on shore to be
slaughtered and annihilated. They
had not proofs exactly ss strong as holy
writ, but Ihey were irresolute, undeci
ded, and frightened, and were thus
half conquered. No sooner had the the
of (ruce got back to the fleet, than
shower of bombs and balls was sent from
each vessel. The attack was immedi
ately acknowledged, with great spirit
low.' why a rusty old six pounder had
been mounted on a log and scoured up
lor me occasion, and as soon as it codld
be cha.ged it was 'let off' on Ihe thir
teen English vessels. A few hours
were spent in this manner, and Sir Jan.
Yoe, assured that he could not be in
safely in that viciniy, (nd with one of
nil vessels badly shattered by Ihe afore
said toe-mounted six nonnder.) run
n- J,
down to Puylteneyville. about twenty
milea eastward of Gennessee river.
fhere they learned how thirty-eieht or
forty green militia men "had beaten off
and prevented a large British flee! from
landing, by a very successful Yankee
trick!
As soon as (he keen edge of mortifi
cation was worn off, Sit James and all
his people laughed heartily at Ihe strata
gem and its result. .It was a noble Yan
kee trick, that.
