The following came out in the general orders, " the General had the moft fenfible ple-ifure in feeing the good difpofition with which the troops laft night moved towards the attack. It was with the greateft reluilance he found himfelf called upon by his duty to reprefs their ardour s but he fliould hold himfelf anfwerabie to thofe brave men, whofe -es might be faved by waiting for a more favourable oppor- tunity." This day is the a5th anni- verfary of my b;rth. A variety of fcenes have prefented themfelves in this Ihort term t prolperity and advcr- fity have alternately chequered my path. Some dangers efcaped, and fa- vours innumerable received by me, demand a tribute of the warmeft gn> titude. 29. This day I dined with Gen. Montgomery, and fpent the afternoon and evening with him in an agreeable manner. This evening as a party of our men were executing a command in the fuburbs of St. Rue, they were fired upon from the walls and one man was wounded in the leg. 30. This morning between the hours of I and 3 o'clock, our train tlirew into the city about 30 fliells, wjiich produced a number of flielliand a brifk cannonading from the town. Continued our preparations to make an attack upon the city, the ladders being now ready, and the W< E. ftor- jny, which was thought beft for our purpofe } the troops were ordered to parade at » o'clock to morrow morn- ing. 31. The troops aflembled at two o'clock this monnng j thofe that were to make the attack by the way of Cape Diamond«co!lefted at the general Quar- ters upon the heights of Abraliam, and were headed by Gen. Montgomery. Thofe that were to make the attack by the fuburbs of St. Rue, were headed by Col. Arnold, and which were two battalions that were detached from the army at Cambridge. — Col. Livlvigftone with a regiment of Canadians, and Major Brbwn with part of a regiment from Bofton, were to make a falfe at- tack upon the walls fouthward of St;. John's g%te» and in the me^ time to 5«a fct fire to the gate with con'.buftible* prepared for that purpo(e, Thcfe difFerent bodies were to rttov0 to the attack from their places of a|i' fembly exaftly at 5 o'clock \ but the difFerent routes they had to make, th» great depth of fnow, and other obfta- cles prevented the execution of Col,' Livingfton's command. The general moved with bis corps and a number of carpenters, to the pickets at Cape Diamond { the carpenters foon cat the pickets with faws, the i;eneral pulled' them down with his own hands, and entered with his aid de camp Mf, M* . Pherfon, Mr. Antill the engtiieer| Capt. Cheefman, the carpenters and. others. The troop« did not follow, except a few who attacked the guard houfe : the enemy gave them a dif- charge of grajie (hot from their caSB» non, and of fmalt arms at the fame time, by which the general, his aid de' camp, Capt Cheefman and fome other* bravely fell. The firing then entirely ceafed, and the lights in the (piard houfe were out, at which time, 'ti» faid, the troops might have entered. —But Colonels ,. ..,, ■ thought lace Gate, and moft of them were made prifoners. Our men near the fecond bar- rier took poiTe0ion of fome houfes, and kept upa fire from them for fome time, but as the body which Tallied oot of Fa« laCeGate, came upon the rear, andour numbers were greatly leflcned by being killed and wounded, it was thought beft 'to retreat to the battery that we had taken, which we^iid, wit'> thegreateft part of our men, where at a confulta- tion of oAicers prefent, it wat the nnanimous opinion that it was imprac ticable to retreat, as we muft have paired a great part of tbe way, under the walii of the town- ixpofed to a line of fire, and our rear expoild t« Xhe fire of the enemy at the fame timei befides having the party that fallied out through Paiace Gate to oppefe in front. We maintained our ground till about ten in the morning, bat were at laft obliged, with great reluc- tance, to furrcnder prifonersofwar. By the bell accounts wecanobtain» our lofs, by killed and wounded, amounts to about one hundred { the lofs which the town fuftained, we cannot learn} it muft be fmall in com- parifon with ours, owing to the ad* vantage of fituation. We had one Captain and two Lieutenants killedi wounded officers, Colonel Arnoldy Capt. Hubbard, Capt. Larabe, Lieut. Steel, Lieut. Tiidale and Brigade Major Ogden. The lofs in that part of the army commanded by the Ge- neral, befides himfelf, was his Aid de C^.mp, Mr. M'Pherfon and Capt. Cheefeman ; private number unknown. His Honour, Brigadier Generad Moot* gomery, was Iho" through both hie thighs and through his head : bis body was taken up the next day, aa elegant coiHn was prepared, and he was decently interred the Thuriiiay after. I am informed, when bis body was taken up, his features were not in the leaft diftorted : his countenance appeared regular, fercne, and placid like the foul that late had animated it* He was tall and ftendei, yvell limbed,, of a genteel, eafy, graceful, manly addrefs, and had the voluntary love, efteem and conSdence of the whole army. His death, though honourable, is lamented, not only as the death of an amift'^le, worthy friend, but at an experienced, brave Geiieral ) the whole country iufferi greatly by ibch' a lofs at this time. The native good* nef* and reAitude of his heart might eafily be fe«n in his ai^ioiis ) bta (en- tiraents, which appeared on cv^ry occafion, were fi light with thait un-' aifeded goodnefs, which plainly dii^ covered the goodnefs of the heart froni whence they flowed.
