[Philadelphia] On Monday last the Rev. Dr. Smith delivered
an animated and pathetic oration in the German Calvinist
Church, in honour of the late General Montgomery, and the
brave officers who fell with him before Quebec, to a very
crowded assembly, consisting of the principal ladies of the
city, the Congress, General Assembly, Committees of Safety
and Inspection, the Professors and students of the College,
and the four battalions of militia. Several pieces of solemn
music were performed before and after the oration, which
added much to its entertainment.
