it was the practice to use so much of the permanent missionary fund as
was needful to defray the contingent expenses of the Assembly. At that

sign of that fund, since which time no such appropriation of it has beerv
made, and in the opinion of this Assembly, no such appropriation should
be made.

The committee appointed by the last Assembly, on the subject of
slavery, made a report, which was accepted, and is as follows, viz.

The committee to whom were referred, by the last General Assembly,
sundry memorials and other papers touching the subject of slavery, with
directions to report thereon to the General Assembly of 1836, beg leave
to report —

That, after the most mature deliberation which they have been able to
bestow on the interesting and important subject referred to Ihem, they
would most respectfully recommend to the General Assembly the adop-
tion of the following preamble and resolutions, \iz.

Whereas, the subj*ict of s^lavery is inseparably connected with and regu-

248

laied by the laws of many of the states in this Union, with which it is by
uo means proper for an ecclesiastical judicatory to interfere ; ac^l involves
many considerations, in regard to which great diversity of opinion and
intensity of feeling are known to exist, in the churches represented in
this Assembly: and whereas, there is every reason to believe that any
action on the part of the Assemlily in reference to this sul)ject, would
tei.d lo (list) uct uiid divide our churches, and would^ l)robably, in no wise
piijinote the benefit of those whose welfare is immediately contemplated
in the memorials in question — therefore,

1. Resolved, That it is not expedient for the Assembly to take any
further order in relation to this subject.

2. Resolved, That, as the notes which have been expunged from our
public formularies, and which some of the memorials referred to the com-
mittee, request to have restoi-ed, were introduced irregularly — never had
the sanction of the church — and therefore never possessed any real autho-
rity, the General Assembly has no power to assign them a place in the
authorized standards of the church, and does not deem it proper to take
the constitutional measures for effecting their restoration.

The consideration of the above report was made the order of the day
for Monday morning next at 10 o'clock.

The Rev. James H. Dickey, one of the committee on slavery, who dis-
sented from the above report, made a counter report, which is as follows:

The minority of the committee to whom were referred sundry petitions
and memorials on the subject of slavery, which had been presented to the
last Assembly from different parts of the church, have had that subject
under consideration, and beg leave to lay before the present Assembly the
result of their deliberations.

Since the last Assembly, the discussions on the subject of slavery have
been conducted in a spirit of extreme excitement, and a strong reckless
feeling of parly zeal has manifested itself in some places, even within the
pale of the church; and sentiments have been avowed which are at war
with the genius of our government, and strike at the very foundations of
our civil and religious liberties. It appears to us, after the most dispas-
sionate review of the whole subject, of which we are capable, that, at
such a time as this, when sentiments are advanced, and claims are set up,
so inconsistent with the civil and religious rights of the poor, and with
the long settled and expressed doctrines of the Presbyterian church, if
the Assembly should altogether hold their peace, (especially after the
pledge given year before last to our brethren in Scotland,) they would be
recreant to the cause of truth and mercy, false to their brethren, and un-
faithful to Him who has set them as watchmen on Zion's wall, and com-
manded them to cry aloud and not spare. We, therefore, propose the
following as the declaration of the Assembly on that subject.

The General Assembly of the Presbyterian church in the United States
of America, continue to declai-e their unwavering and undiminished at-
tachment to those principles of liberty, which are so clearly expressed in
the Declaration of Independence, and in the federal and state constitutions
of these United States. They do unhesitatingly believe that all men are
by nature free and cc[ual, and are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap-
piness.

We rejoice to know that Presbyterians have been, from time imme-
morial, the advocates and defenders of civil and religious liberty. The
Puritans of England, and the Reformers of Scotland, from whom we claim
to be descended, were the uncompromising opposers of tyranny, and

249

"waded through seas of difficulty, and were baptized with their own blood,
for centuries, to achieve liberty. And when they could not enjoy it in
Europe, they fled to the wilds of America, and l)raved the dangers and
the toils of settling a new world, that they might there enjoy the bless-
ings of liberty, which they had in vain struggled to obtain in the land of
their fathers. To this new world they brought the seeds of those liberal
sentiments which produced the Revolution; andwhich have I)een em-
bodied in the constitutions of these confederated republics, where we
live and enjoy so many privileges.

These sentiments have been avowed by several former Assemblies;
and this Assembly are cordial in the declaration, that every peaceable
member of society ought to be protected in the full and free exercise of
his religion, it being his indefeisible, inalienable right, to worship God
according to his understanding of the sacred oracles. The Assembly
have also from time to lime expressed unfeigned regret, that a state ol
things inconsistent with the above expressed sentiments, should obtain
in any part of our country. The slavery of the Africans and their de-
scendants not only continues, but is becoming more and more deeply
rooted in the land, and intimately incorporated with the very frame of
civil society; and even within the pale of the church, it begins to claim
a lodgment, not by indulgence merely, but as of right.

The hope has been indulged and expressed by former Assemblies, that
a state of things so inconsistent with the maxims of Christianity would
yield to the light of Divine truth, and be destroyed by the brightness
of the Gospel, without the direct exercise of discipline ; and hence the
church has been exhorted to the exercise of patient forbearance toward
those who were entangled in its snares. But, instead of realizing that
hope, the church has found herself more deeply involved in its toils, and,
in some parts, in danger of being crushed in its folds. Inasmuch, then,
as past forbearance has been used, not to put away the evil, but to give
it strength, fortify its positions, and spread a shield around it to de-
fend it against the shafts of divine truth ; it seems, therefore, needful and
incumbent that the church take a more firai and decided stand on this
■subject.

Slavery, similar to that which exists in the United States, prevaileti
extensively in the heathen world, when the Gospel was first published;
but it was destroyed, with all ihe other institutions of Heathenism, by
the power of primitive Christianity ; whereas instead of declining, it has
attained a fearful maturity, under our administrations; — a sure evidence
that we have not treated it as the Apostles and primitive Christians did.

Instead of being based on the same foundation as the other relations
of life, "slavery creates a paradox in the moral system." It exhibits
moral, accountable, and immortal beings, as mere chattels — things of
bargain and sale — scarcely possessing the power of moral action. It
holds them who were created, equally with ourselves, lords of this world,
to be mere appendages to the existence and comfort of another. It
breaks in upon all the divinely constituted relations of life, and violates
their claims. Under its rule the marriage a*elation — the source of all
others, cannot exist; and, in its stead, is introduced a debasing and
corrupting system of universal concubinage. It forbids children to ho-
nour and obey their parents, and renders it impohsible for parents to
train up their children according to the divine direction- It deprives
female chastity of its protection, and opens the floodgates of licentious-
ness. In a word, it violates the claims of all the social relations of God's
appointment, and puts the property, the morals, and even the life of the
C

S5tf

slave, in the power of the master. It is, therefore, an institution, con-
trary to nature — unsanctioned by the divine law of love. The authority
it claims is usurpation, and the subjection it demands is unreasonable.
The whole system is at war with the divine institutions. It is therefore
gin — essentially sin — and all its claims are founded in injustice. Its with-
ering influence, and its ruinous effects, are seen, felt, and acknowledged,
wherever it has obtained a footing.

"Such," to use the language of the Assembly of 1818, "is the cha-
racter, and some of the consequences of slavery — consequences not ima-
ginary, but which connect themselves with its very existence." God de-
clares himself to be the friend and protector of the stranger, the widow,
and the fatherless : but every black man in the United States is a stran-
ger (an alien) — every slave-mother is a widow (destitute of the guardi-
anship of a husband) — and all her children are fatherless. God has plac-
ed his church in the world to I)e a light to the world, and he requires
her to set a good example. And how much soever the world may affect
to despise the church, it has always taken its standard of morals from
her. And no evil can long maintain its hold in society, against which
the church continues to bear a clear and consistent testimony. Hence
the manifest equity of the divine maxim, that judgment should begin at
the house of God.

God's express command is, "Open thy mouth for the dumb, in the
cause of all such as are appointed to destruction. Open thy mouth,
judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy." (Prov.
xxxi. 8, 9.) It is then plainly the duty of all ecclesiastical bodies, in
their associated capacity, as well as of every minister and elder, and eve-
ry private member of the church, to hold up a most decided, consistent,
and persevering testimony against the crying sin o( slavery. Therefore,
as the sense of this Assembly, resolved,

1. That the buying, selling, or holding of a human being as property,
is, in the sight of God, a heinous sin, and ought to subject the doer of
it to the censures of the church.

2. That it is the duty of every one, and especially of every Christian
who may be involved in this sin, to free himself from its entanglements
without delay.

S. That it is the duty of every one, and especially of every Christian,
in the meekness and firmness of the gospel, to plead the cause of the
poor and needy, by testifying against the principle and practice of slave
holding; and to use his best endeavours to deliver the church of God
from this evil; and to bring about the emancipation of the slaves in
these United Slates and throughout the world.

This report also was made the order of the day for Monday morning-
next at 10 o'clock.

was introduced, and ordered to be entered on the minutes, viz.

Although we feel that we might take exception to the unauthenticated
and incorrect document which has been read from the printed appendix

253

of the minutes of Synod, as the decision of our Presbytery in the case of
Dr. Junkin versus Mr. Barnes, yet havint; produced an authenticated
document of the Presbytery ourselves, and desirinj^, and never having
had any other than a sincere desire, for a full and impartial examination
of this case, we hereby waive all o!)jection, and express our wish that
the Assembly will proceed in the trial of this case.

The Assembly spent the forenoon in public religious exercises, agree-
ably to the report of the committee of arrangements.

The annual report of the Directors of the Union Theological Semi-
nary was read and accepted, and ordered to be printed in the appendix,
to the minutes.

The committee to whom was referred the report of the committee oii
the transfer of the Western Foreign Missionary Society, and an overture
on the same subject from the Synod of Philadelphia, made a report,-
which was accepted, and is as follows?

The committee to whom was referred the report of the committee ap-
pointed by the last Assembly on the subject of a transfer of the supervi-
sion of the Western Foreign Missionary Society to the General Assem-
bly, and also the overture from the Synod of Philadelphia, on the sub-
ject of foreign missions, report — That the attention of the last Assembly
was called to the subject of foreign missions by the following overture,-
viz. on page 31 of printed minutes: "That it is the solemn conviction
of this General Assembly, that the Presbyterian Church owes it, as a
sacred duty to her glorified Head, to yield a far more exemplary obe-
dience, and that in hev distinctive cha.r<xct.tiv as a church, to the command'
which he gave at his ascension into Heaven — 'Go ye into all the world'
and preach the Gospel to every creature.' It is believed to be among the
causes of the frowns of the great Head of the Church, which are now
resting on our beloved Zion, in the declension of vital piety, and the dis-
orders and divisions that distract us, that we have done so little — com-
paratively nothing — in our distinctive character as a Church of Christ,.
to send the Gospel to the Heathen, to the Jews, and the Mahomedans..

S54

It is regarded as of vital importance to the welfare of our church, that
foreign as well as domestic missions should be more zealously prosecuted,
and more liberally patronized; and that as a nucleus of foreign missiona-
ry effort and operation, the Western Foreign Missionary Society should
receive the countenance, as it appears to us to merit the confidence, of
those wlio cherish an attachment to the doctrines and order of the church
to which we belong."

The Assembly feeling the force of the suggestions contained in this
overture, and believing it to be their most imjjortant and appropriate
work, to spread the Gospel throughout the world, adopted the overture
in the form of a resolution, logether with the following, viz.

" Resolved, That a committee be appointed to confer with the Synod
of Pittsburg on the subject of a transfer of a supervision of the Western
Foreign Missionary Society, now under the direction of that Synod; to
ascertain the terms on which such transfer can be made; to devise and
digest a plan of conducting foreign missions under the direction of the
General Assembly of the Presbyterian church; and report the whole to
the next General Assembly."

Thus it appears, that the proposition to confer with the Synod, and
to assume the supervision and control of the Western Foreign Missiona-
ry Society, originated in the Assembly.

At that time the Western Foreign Missionary Society was in a pros-
perous condition, enjoying the confidence and receiving the patronage of
a considerable number of our churches, having in their employ about
twenty missionaries, and their funds were unembarrassed. The commit-
tee having conferred with some of the members of that society, and find-
ing that the proposition was favourably regarded by them, indulging the
hope that an arrangement might be definitely made with the Synod, at
their next stated meeting, by which the Assembly would be prepared to
enter on the work at their present sessions, brought the subject again
befoi'e the Assembly, when it was, after mature deliberation,

"Resolved, That the committee appointed to confer with the Synod
of Pittsburg, on the subject of a transfer of the supervision of the West-
ern Foreign Missionary Society to the General Assembly, be authorized,
if they shall approve of the said transfer, to ratify and confirm the same
with the said Synod, and report the same to the next General Assembly."
—p. 33.

The committee thus appointed, and clothed with full powers to ratify
and confirm a transfer, submitted the terms on which they were willing
to accept it, to the Synod of Pittsburg, at their sessions last Fall.

The members of the committee not being present at the meeting of the
Synod, and there being no time for further correspondence, the Synod,
(although they would have preferred some alterations of the terms,) were
precluded from proposing any, on the ground that such alteration would
vitiate the whole proceedings, and therefore acceded to the terms of the
transfer which were proposed by the committee of the Assembly, and
solemnly ratified the contract on their part. Feeling themselves bound
by the same, and trusting to the good faith of this body, they have acted
accordingly, and have made no provision for their missionaries now in
the field, for a longer time than the meeting of this Assembly, having
informed them of the transfer which has taken place, and of the new^ re-
lation they would sustain to this body after their present sessions.

It appears then to your committee, that the Assembly have entered
into a solemn compact with the Synod of Pittsburg, and that there re-
mains but one righteous course to pursue, Avhich is to adopt the report

255

of the committee appointed last year, and to appoint a Foreign Mission-
ary Board. To pause now, or to atinul the doings of the hist Assembly
in this matter, would I)e obviously a violation of contract, a breach of
trust, and a departure from that good faith which should be sacredly
kept betweeen man and man, ar\d especially between Christian societies
— conduct which would l)e utterly unworthy of this venerable body, and
highly injurious to the Western Foreign Missionary Society.

The committee beg leave further respectfully to remind the Assem-
bly, that a large proportioi\ of our churches (being Presbyterians from
conviction and preference,) feel it to be consistent not only, but their
solemn duty in the sight of God, to impart to others the same good, and
in the same form of it which they enjoy themselves, and to be represent-
ed in heathen lands by missionaries of their own denomination. They
greatly prefer such an organization as this contemplated, and which
shall be under the care of the Presbyterian church, and cannot be enlisted
so well in the great and glorious work of sending the Gospel to the Hea-
then under any other. Already, with the blessing of the great Head of
the church on the efforts of the Western Foreign Missionary Society, in
this form of operation, has a missionary spirit been awakened among
them to considerable extent, and an interest in the cause of missions
been created never before felt by them. They have furnished men for the
work, and are contributing cheerfully to their support in the foreign
field.

As one great end to be accomplished by all who love the Redeemer,
is to awaken and cherish a missionary spirit, and to enlist all the churches
in the work of evangelizing the world; as every leading Christian de-
nomination in the world, has its own foreign missionary board, and has
found such distinct organization the most effectual method of interesting
the churches under their care, in this great subject; as such an organi-
zation cannot interfere with the rights or operations of any other similar
organization, for the field is the world, and is ?vide enough for all to cul-
tivate; as it is neither desired nor intended to dictate to any in this mat-
ter, but simply to give an opportunity of sending the Gospel to the Hea-
then, by their own missionaries, to those who prefer this mode of doing
so, giving them that liberty which they cheerfully accord to others — your
committee cannot suppose for a moment that this General Assembly will
in this stage of the proceedings refuse to consummate this arrangement
Avith the Synod of Pittsburg, and thus prevent so many churches under
their care from supporting their missionaries in their own way. From
this view of the case, they recommend to the Assembly the adoption of
the following resolutions, viz. —

1. Resolved, That the report of the committee appointed by the last
Assembly, to confer with the Synod of Pittsburg on the subject of a
transfer of the \Vestern Foreign Missionary Society to the General As-
sembly, be adopted, and that said transfer be accepted on the terms of
agreement therein contained.

2. Resolved, That the Assembly will proceed to appoint a Foreign
Missionary Board, the seat of whose operations shall be in the city of
New York.

The above report was made the order of the day for to-morrow morn-
ing at 9 o'clock.

Nominations were made to fill the vacancies in the Board of Missions;
and the election was made the order of the day for to-morrow afternoon
at 3 o'clock.

The committee to whom was referred the proceedings of the Presby-

256

tery of Bedford, in the case of Mr. Alexander Leadl)etter, reported that
they find the proceeding's of that Presbytery to have been regular, accord-
ing to the rules of the General Assembly, provided in the case of receiv-
ing a foreign minister or licentiate; and having examined all the papers
and credentials of Mr. Leadbetter, which were submitted to the Presby-
tery, they find them to be credible, and sufficient; and recommend that
his reception by the Presbytery of Bedford, be approved by the General
Assembly.

This report was adopted.

The case of Mr. Barnes was resumed.

The following papers were offered, and ordered to be entered on the
minutes, viz.- —

I offer to the Assembly the paper called " an appendix," as the records
furnished by the Presbytery in my case, and request that it may be read,
as containing evidence which I deem important, which was before the
Presbytery, and which was not before the Synod.

Albert Barnes.

The prosecutor in the case of Mr. Barnes, and the committee appoint-
ed by the Synod of Philadelphia to defend their decision in the same
case, hereby agree to the introduction of the document entitled "an ap-
pendix, &c. " Not, however, as a part of the records of the inferior ju-
dicatory, but as testimony adduced by the appellant to substantiate any
statements which he has made, or may yet make.

George Junkin.

S. G. Winchester, "j Committee
G. W. Musgrave, I of Synod of
David M'Kinney, J Philadelphia.

I object to the paper book, called an " appendix, Sec," being read as a
part of record. 1. Because it is not, nor does it profess to be the origi-
nal record, or a transcript of the same. 2. Because it is not a full and
true history of the case, nor does it profess so to be, page 1. 3. Because
the omission of it in the record can do injustice to no party, inasmuch
as no objection will be made to Mr. Barnes using the parts here trans-
cribed, or any other parts of his Notes on Romans, as originally pub-
lished, on this trial. 4. Because the admission of a defective record
would not be according to truth, and would therefore be injurious to the
prosecutor.

George Junkin.

The document called " the appendix numbered from pp. 1 to 58, in-
clusive, containing the trial, testimony of the parties Junkin and Barnes,
and final decision of the Second Presbytery of Philadelphia, in the said
case of Junkin and Barnes," was read.

The Assembly, agreeably to tlie order of the day, took up the report
of the commiuee to whom was referred the report of the committee of
the last Assembly, on the transfer of the Western Foreign Missionary
Society.

Dr. Skinner, one of the committee, who dissented from this report,
made a counter report, which was read, accepted, and is as follows:

Whereas, the American Boai-d of Commissioners for Foreign Missions,
has been connected with the Presbyterian church from the year of its
incorporation, by the very elements of its existence; and whereas at the
present time the majority of the whole of that board are Presbyterians;
and whereas, as it is undesirable, in conducting the work of Foreign
Missions, that there should be any collision at home or abroad ; there-
fore,

Resolved, That it is inexpedient that the Assembly should organize a
sepai'ale Foreign Missionary Institution.

A motion was made to adopt the report of the committee; after con-
siderable discussion, a motion was made to postpone the motion for adop-
tion of the committee's report, with a view to take up the report of Dr.
Skinner. While this motion was under discussion, the Assembly ad-
journed till this afternoon at half past 2 o'clock.

The committee of overtures reported overture No. 16, viz. the petition

The committee on mileage report, that the contributions paid to the
Treasurer of the Trustees of the General Assembly for the Commis-

six dollars and twenty-two cents; and that the number of miles travelled
by the commissioners, who have given in their mileage, is thirty-two
thousand eight hundred and twenty-seven ; which at 3| cents per mile,

261

amounts to §1,066,88. The committee tlierefore respectfully recom-
mend to the General Assembly, the adoption oC the following resolu-
tion, viz.

Resolved, That the Treasurer of the Trustees of the General Assem-
bly be directed to pay to the commissioners, entitled to the commissioners'
fund, the sum of 81,066,88, being at the rale of 3] cents per mile on
the distance travelled by them.

The above report was adopted, and the Trustees of the General As-
sembly were directed to issue their warrant on the Treasurer, for the
payment from the Commissioners' Fund, to the commissioners, the sum
of 81,066,88, agreeably to the apportionment of the committee on
mileage.

Adjourned till to-morrow morning at half past 8 o'clock.

TUESDAY morning, May Slst, half past 8 o'clock. The Assembly

The minutes of the last session were read.

The committee to whom was referred overture No. S, being the ap-
plication of the Presbytery of Morganton, for a donation to that body
of the lands belonging to the Assembly, situate in Buncombe county, in
the State of North Carolina, made the following report, which was
adopted ; viz.

That the lands referred to area moiety of 20,000 acres, bequeathed to
the Trustees of the Assembly by the late Dr. Boudinot; that the com-
mittee have not been able to ascertain the precise terms of the devise, not
having access to the will, but suppose the lands were given for the gene-
ral fund of the Church; and if such were the case, the committee
believe the Assembly would not be warranted in granting them to one of
the Presbyteries under their care ; that it would be establishing a pre-
cedent, which might be very injurious in its consequences, for the As-
sembly to distribute any portion of its general and permanent funds, to its
component and constituent parts.

The committee therefore recommend that the request of the Presby-
tery be not granted.

The Presbytery asking the grant, assign as a reason therefor, that the
land had never contributed any thing to the interests of the Church; but
has been an expense and burden, inasmuch as taxes have been regularly
paid for it out of the funds of the Church.

They also represent that some portions of the lands have been lost in
consequence of adverse claimants, who have entered upon the lands, and
who hold them by possession. The committee also have learned from
the Treasurer of the Board of Trustees, that a fund of §400, was be-
queathed to the Trustees for the payment of the taxes on these lands,
and that the accumulated interest upon that fund now amounts to more
than S400.

The committee would therefore recommend the adoption of the fol-
lowing resolutions.

Resolved, 1. That the Trustees of the Assembly be advised and re-
quested, if it be in accordance with the object for which the lands were
given, and not in contravention of the terms of the bequest, to dispose
of the said lands in such manner, and upon such terms, as to them may
seem most expedient.

2. That they be requested to appoint immediately an efficient agent,

262

if one can be procured, who shall examine the situation of the lands,
and that they be requested to report their proceedings herein, and the
situation of the lands, with their annual report to the next General As-
sembly.

The committee to whom was referred overture No. 14, on the subject
of a new Digest, made the following report, which was adopted; viz.

That as the want of a new Digest has been felt and expressed by
many brethren; as the minutes of the Assembly have now become too
voluminous, to be conveniently carried to the places of meeting of the
several judicatories; as it is impossible now to supply our ministers and
elders with entire sets of tiie minutes; and as arrangements maybe
made for the publication of a new Digest, without any expense to the
Assembly, they therefore recommend to the Assembly the following re-
solutions for adoption; viz,

1. Resolved, That in the judgment of this Assembly, it is expedient
that a new Digest of the acts and proceedings of the highest judicatory

WEDNESDAY afternoon, half past 2 o'clock. The Assembly met,
and began with prayer.

The minutes of the last session were read.

The committee appointed on overture No. 13. containing two inqui-
ries from the Presbytery of Erie, made the following report, which was
adopted, viz. That the first inquiry, which is in these words, "Can a
minister, with one elder, form a session capable of transacting judicial
business?" is sufBciently answered in the Constitution, Form of Govern-
ment, Chap. ix. sect. 2, where it seems to be implied that cases may oc-
cur with infant or feeble churches, in which it would be impracticable,
for a time, to have more than one elder, and yet be necessary to perform
acts of a judicial character. For such the Constitution provides; but if
there be more than one elder, then two at least, with a minister, are ne-
cessary to form a session.

That the second inquiry in said overture, viz. "When an elder has
been suspended from church privileges, for an offence, and again restor-
ed to the privileges of the church, is he also restored to his office as a
ruling elder?" should be answered in the negative. The two thijigs are
distinct; and since an elder as well as a minister may be suspended from
his office, and not from the communion of the church, so there may be
reasons for continuing his suspension from his office, after he is restor-
ed to the privileges of the church. He cannot be restored to the func-
tions of his office, without a special and express act of the session for
that purpose, with the acquiescence of the church.

The committees appointed on the records of the Synods of Ohio, In-
diana, Utica, Western Reserve, Missouri, Mississippi, Virginia, Ten-
nessee, West Tennessee, Kentucky, Genesee, Pittsburg, and Illinois, re-
ported; and the records were respectively approved.

The committees on the records of the Synods of Philadelphia and Cin-

The committees on the records of the Synods of Geneva, Alabama,
South Carolina and Georgia, and North Carolina, reported respectively,
that the records have not been put into their hands; and the committees
wei*e discharged.

The Assembly resumed the appeal of Mr. Barnes. Dr. Junkin was
further heard in support of the charges, until he finished.

Mr. Barnes then replied, and Dr. Junkin rejoined.

Adjourned till to-morrow morning at half past 8 o'clock.

Concluded with prayer.

THURSDAY morning, June 2d, half past 8 o'clock. The Assembly

The minutes of the last session were read.

The committee to whom was referred the resolution respecting the
Synods of Virginia and North Carolina withdrawing at such time and
in such manner as they may deem proper, the moneys belonging to the
Union Theological Seminary, now in the hands of the Board of Trustees
of this Assembly, made the following report, which was adopted; viz.
That whereas the moneys in question were collected by the agency, and
mainly within the bounds of those Synods; and whereas it is believed
that they may be safely invested in the South at a much higher rate of
interest than tliey now bear; therefore, resolved, that whenever the Sy-
nods of Virginia and North Carolina shall indicate the desire above-
mentioned, to the Trustees of the General Assembly, the said Trustees
be, and they hereby are authorized, to transfer the funds referred to.

Nominations were made for persons to fill the vacancies in the Board
of Education; and tlie election was made the order of the day for to-
morrow morning at 9 o'clock.

The committee to whom was referred the report of the Trustees of
the General Assembly, in relation to the funds of the church, made the
following report, Avhich was adopted; viz.

That they have endeavoured to give the important subject committed
to them the consideration which it demanded ; that, in the discharge of
their duties they have examined the books of the treasurer, and find
them in perfect order, exhibiting all the different funds of the church in
a clear and perspicuous manner; that difficulties and perplexities, which
had arisen from the fact, that for many years the treasurer's books had
not been posted up, are removed, and the books and accounts now show
the transactions of the Board, in the management of the funds of the
church, in their proper light.

During the past year, important changes have been made by the Trus-
tees in some of the funds. Under the suggestions made by a previous
General Assembly, the Board have made new, and much more produc-
tive investments, and by means thereof, have not only been able to meet
the annual appropriations for the professors' salaries, and to pay the ar-
rears of salaries ; but have also paid off S 2,671 09, of the moneys pre-
viously borrowed from the permanent funds, to meet the orders of the
Assembly.

Of this sum, S TOO have been repaid to the ED Scholarship. The
Directors of the Princeton Seminary, whose report was also referred to
your committee, have called the attention of the Assembly to that Scho-
larship, and in relation thereto the committee have only to observe, that
in their opinion, the loan which was made from that fund ought to be
repaid by the Trustees as soon as the state of the funds will admit, and
that in future no loans ought to be made from the permanent funds; and
in case loans should be necessary under any resolution of the Assembly,
they ought to be drawn from other sources.

The subject of investments in stocks is much better understood by
the Board of Trustees than by your committee, and the committee be-
lieve the Assembly may place the most implicit confidence as well in
the judgment and skill, as in the prudence of the Trustees in relation to
this whole subject. They therefore only suggest to them, that while it
is of importance to secure the increase of revenue, which the new in-
vestments in bank stock have yielded, and promise to yield in future;
yet a due regard is to be had to the safety and permanency of those in-
vestments; and taking into consideration the highly important interests
dependent upon such security, that greater risk ought not to be run, than

2G5

would be incurred by a prudent man whose family with himself might
be dependent upon the investments.

The committee therefore recommend the following resolutions, viz.

1. Resolved, That the General Assembly approve of the proceedings
of the Board of Trustees as detailed in their report of the 10th May
last, and direct the Stated Clerk to transmit a copy of this report and
these resolutions to that Board, as containing the opinion of the As-
sembly, upon the subjects herein mentioned.

2. Resolved, That the Trustees be directed (if it be not inconsistent
with the terms and object of the bequest) to dispose of the stock held
by them in the United Passaick and Hackensack Bridge Company.

3. Resolved, That the report of the Trustees be published in the ap-
pendix to the minutes.

The annual report of the Directors of the Theological Seminary at
Princeton, was ordered to be printed in the appendix to the minutes of
the Assembly.

The committee on overtures Nos. 6 and 16, in relation to the bounda-
ries of the Synod of West Tennessee, made a report, which was laid

The minutes of the last session were read.

The committee appointed on Overture No. 2. viz. what is a vacant
church in the sense of the Form of Government, Chapter 10, Sections
3, 4, 5, and Chapter 8, Section 17, made a report, which was accepted
and laid on the table.

The committee on the boundaries of the Synod of Virginia reported
in favour of adopting the resolution of said Synod submitted to the
General Assembly. The resolution was adopted, and is as follows; viz.
That the boundary line of the Synod of Virginia should coincide with
the northern boundary of the counties of Randolph, Lewis, and Wood,
including the whole of those counties in the Synod of Virginia; that
the south-western boundary of the Synod of Virginia coincide with the
south-western boundary of the counties of Mason and Kenhawa, so as
to include the whole of those counties in the Synod of Virginia ; and
then making New River, from its mouth, the boundary between this
Synod, and the Synod of Tennessee, so as to include that part of the
county of Montgomery east of New River, in the Synod of Virginia;
but leaving that part of the counties of Wythe, and Grayson, lying east
of New River, to belong to the Synod of Tennessee.

The Assembly resumed the case of Mr. Barnes. The original par-
ties, and all the members of the Synod, then withdrew.

A question was raised by Mr. Cunningham, an elder from the Synod
of Philadelphia, who was not a member of Synod at the meeting at
which the case of Mr. Barnes was tried and issued, whether he has a
right to vote in this case in the Assembly. After some discussion, the
Moderator decided that Mr. Cunningham, and any other members of
the Assembly from that Synod, similarly situated, have a right to vote in
the Assembly. From this decision of the Moderator an appeal was
E

266

taken, when by a vote of the Assembly the decision of the Moderator
was not sustained; and it was decided that Mr. Cunningham, and others
similarly situated, have no right to vote on the case in the Assembly.

A motion was then made that Dr. Skinner, and Mr. Dashiell, who at
the time the trial was commenced in the 2d Presbytery of Philadelphia,
were either not dismissed from that body, or had not yet connected them-
selves with any other, though they did not meet with the Presbytery, and
before the meeting of Synod were members of other Presbyteries, should
not sit in judgment in the case of Mr. Barnes. This motion was decid-
ed in the negative.

portunity to express their opinions in the case of Mr. Barnes, and hav-

The following resolution was offered by Dr.^Millei', viz.
; Resolved, That while this General Assembly has thought proper to re-
move the sentence of suspension under which the Rev. Mr. Barnes was
placed by the Synod of Philadelphia; yet the judgment of the Assembly
is, that Mr. Barnes, in his notes on the Epistle to the Romans, has pub-
lished opinions, materially at variance with the Confession of Faith of
the Presbyterian Church, and with the Avord of God; — especially with
regard to original sin, the relation of man to Adam, and justification
by faith, in the atoning sacrifice and righteousness of the Redeemer.N
The Assembly consider the manner in which Mr. Barnes has contro-
verted the language and doctrine of our public standards, as highly re-
prehensible, and as adapted to pervert the minds of the rising genera-
tion, from the simplicity and purity of the Gospel plan. And although
some of the most objectionable statements and expressions which ap-
peared in the earlier editions of the work in question, have been either
removed, or so far modified or explained, as to render them more in
accordance with our public formularies; still the Assembly considers
the work, even in its present amended form, as containing representa-
tions which cannot be reconciled with the letter or spirit of our public
standards ; and would solemnly admonish Mr. Barnes again to review
this work; to modify still further the statements which have grieved his
brethren; and to be more careful in time to come, to study the purity
and peace of the Church.

After considerable discussion, the previous question was moved and
carried, to put the main question.

The main question was then put, on the adoption of the above reso-
lution, offered by Dr. Miller, and was decided in the negative, as fol-
lows, viz.

The Assembly took up the subject of Slavery. The report of the
committee appointed by the last Assembly on this subject, together with
the report of the minority of said committee were read.

A motion was then made to postpone the consideration of these re-
ports, with a view to take up the following substitute, offered by Mr.
McElhenny, viz.

"The committee to whom were referred by the General Assembly
sundry memorials, and other papers, touching the subject of Slavery,
with directions to report thereon io the General Assembly, beg leave to
report :

" That after the most mature deliberation which they have been able to
bestow on the interesting and important subject referred to them, they
would most respectfully recommend to the General Assembly the adop-
tion of the following preamble and resolution, viz.

" Whereas, the subject of Slavery is inseparably connected with the
laws of many States of this Union, in which it exists under the sanction
of said laws, and of the Constitution of the United States ; — And whereas

resolution; viz. Resolved, That it be enjoined on the Presbyteries to in-
quire carefully in regard to any of their members, who may be residing
without the bounds of their respective Presbyteries, whether there be
sufficient cause for such non-residence ; and if not, that measures be ta-
ken to transfer the relation of such ministers to the Presbyteries, in the
bounds of which they reside.

The Assembly resumed the subject of slavery.

The following motion was made by Dr. Hoge : Inasmuch as the Con-
stitution of the Presbyterian Church, in its preliminary and fundamen-
tal principles, declares that no Church Judicatory ought to pretend
to make laws, to bind the conscience, in virtue of their own authority ;
and as the urgency of the business of the Assembly, and the shortness
of the time during which they can continue in session, render it impos-
sible to deliberate and decide judiciously on the subject of slavery in its
relations to the church ; therefore, resolved, that this whole subject be
indefinitely postponed.

After some discussion, it was agreed that the question should be di-
vided so as to be taken first on the latter part, viz. ' Resolved, That this
whole subject be indefinitely postponed.' The previous question was
then moved and carried, and the main question, shall this whole subject
be indefinitely postponed, was put and carried in the affirmative by the
following vote; viz.

trine, be taken from the judgments of Synods, — made the following re-
port, which was adopted ; viz.

That it is inexpedient that the Assembly should meet less frequently

F

274

Resolved, That so much of the Constitution of the Church, as em-
powers the General Assembly to issue appeals, complaints, and refer-
ences, brought before them from tlie lower judicatories, except in cases
of charges against a Minister of the Gospel for error or heresy, and of
process commencing in the Synods, be and the same is hereby so
amended, that hereafter the Synods, except in the cases above mentioned,
be the judicatories of the last resort.

The committee to whom was recommitted the report of the Board of
Education, reported, when some amendments were made, and the report
was returned to the Board for publication.

Resolved, That the Corresponding Secretary of the Board of Educa-
tion, whenever he shall present an annual report, shall submit also for the
use and inspection of the Assembly, a complete list of the names of the
beneficiaries, to whom pecuniary aid has been paid, during the year;
also the amount paid to each, whether by the Board directly, or by a
Presbytery or auxiliary society; and also the institutions at which the

is not to be published.

The judicial committee reported in relation to the complaint of E. W.
Gilbert and J. W. Pickands, on behalf of the Presbytery of Wilmington,
against the Synod of Philadelphia, for dissolving said Presbytery, accom-
panied with a petition for their restoration, that since their last report,
which was laid on the table, they had received satisfactory evidence that
due notice of said complaint was given to the Moderator of the Synod of
Philadelphia, and that therefore the coiii'plaint is in order. They also
reported as in order the appeal and complaint of Mr. Asahel Smith
against the Synod of Cincinnati ; and the appeal and complaint of the
Rev. Sayers Gazley, against the same Synod. These cases were put
upon the docket.

The committee to whom was referred overture No. 7, being a me-
morial from the Presbytery of Madison, requesting the General Assem-
bly to recommend to all Christian denominations in the world, to take

ence with all Christian nations, to adopt some plan, by which all dis-
putes between nations may be amicably settled without appealing to
the sword, made the following report, which was adopted ; viz.

Resolved, that while the Assembly believe it to be the duty of all the
followers of the Prince of Peace to labour and pray for the speedy ap-
proach of that day "when the nations shall learn war no more," yet
as there is room for diversity of opinion, as to the mode in which
the object may he best promoted, the Assembly deem any particular ac-
tion on the subject by them, at the present time, inexpedient.
The following resolution was offered by Mr. Jessup, viz.
Resolved, That this Assembly will close its sessions this evening at
half past 6 o'clock, and that all business not then disposed of, be con-
tinued to the meeting of the next General Assembly.

The undersigned do solemnly protest against the decision of the
General Assembly, whereby the report of the committee of the last As-
sembly, respecting the Western Foreign M^ionary Society, was re-
jected, for the following reasons; viz. 5 . YT\ \ \ , ^"^ '^'".

1. Because we consider the decision of the Assembly in this case,
as an utijuslifiable refusal to carry into effect a solemn contract with the
Synod of Pittsburg, duly ratified and confirmed under the authority of
the last Assembly.

2. Because we are impressed with the deepest conviction, that the
Presbyterian Church, in her ecclesiastical capacity, is bound, in obe-
dience to the command of her divine Head and Lord, to send the glorious
gospel as far as may be in her power, to every creature ; and we con-
sider.the decision of the Assembly in this case, as a direct refusal to
obey this command, and to pursue one of the great objects for which
the Church was founded.

3. Because it is our deliberate persuasion, that a large part of the ener-
gy, zeal, and resources of the Presbyterian Church, cannot be called into
action in the Missionary cause without the establishment of a Missionary
Board by the General Assembly. It is evident that no other ecclesiasti-
cal organization, by fragments of the Church, can be formed, which will
unite, satisfy, and call forth the zealous co-operation of those in every
part of the Church who wish for a general Presbyterian Board.

4. Because, wiiile the majority of the Assembly acknowledged that
they had a Board which fully met all the wants and wishes, of them-
selves, and of those who sympathized with them ; — they refused to make
such a decision as would accord to us a similar and equal privilege;
thereby, as we conceive, refusing that which would have been only just
and equal, and rejecting a plan which would have greatly extended the
missionary spirit, and exerted a reflex beneficial influence on the
Churches thus indulged with a Board agreeable to their views.

5. Because, to all these considerations, urged with solemnity and af-
fection, the majority of the Assembly were deaf, and have laid us under
the necessity of protesting against their course; of complaining that we
are denied a most reasonable, iuid to us most precious privilege; and of
lamenting that we are laid under the necessity of resorting to plans of
ecclesiastical organization, complicated, inconvenient, and much more
adapted, on a variety of accounts, to interfere with ecclesiastical har-
mony, than the proposed Board would have been.

Dr. Peters, Mr. Cleaveland, and Mr. H. Kingsbury were appointed
a committee to answer the above protest.

The report of the committee on overture No. 5, on the subject of the
Sabbath, was taken up; and after some amendments, was adopted, and
is as follows; viz.

The committee to whom was referred '' overture No. 5, relating to the
Christian Sabbath," respectfully report.

That they have given to the consideration of it, all that attention
which circumstances v/ould permit; and are prepared to submit to the
Assembly the results of their deliberations.

One important fact cannot be denied. The desecration of the Sab-
bath is certainly increasing with fearful rapidity, in almost every part
of our beloved country. A solemn and alarming crisis has already
come. Unless the slumbering energies of the Church are speedily
ai'oused to arrest the progress of this growing evil, the entire oblitera-
tion of the Sabbath, will, at no distant period, be the result. It is ne-
cessary only to look into our large cities and villages, on the Sabbath,
or to glance the eye along our navigable rivers, and over our beautiful
lakes, or to trace the extended lines of our canals, and rail-roads, or lis-
ten to the perpetual rumbling of loaded vehicles, on all our travelled
routes, in order to be convinced that Sabbalh-breaking has already be-
come a sin of giant growth in our land. It is, indeed, a wide-spread,
deep-seated, unblushing evil. It enters boldly into almost every com-
mercial interest in the country; and cniljraces, directly or indirectly, in
its broad sweep of mischief, a vast niultiuule of individuals; and, what
is still worse, an alarming proportion of these oftenders belong to the
Church of the living God. Here is the root of the evil. The Church
has become a deliberate partaker in this great sin. In this way has her
warning voice been well nigh silenced, her redeeming power over the
community paralysed, and the salutary restraints of a consistent example
effectually vacated. Reformation, then, must begin at the house of God.
If the Church alone can save the Sabbath from being abolished, she
must first reform her own conduct. In entering upon the work, it must
not be forgotten that, in its failure or success, are involved the best inte-
rests of the Church, of our country, and the world. The rest of the
Sabbath is the only wise and adequate provision for the wants of the
animal system. The injiuence of the Sabbath can alone be relied on, to
G

282

«ustain our free institutions, to extend the empire of law, to preservie
doniestic order and happiness, and to continue the bare existence of mo-
rality and relii^ion in the world. The abandonment of the Sabbath, is,
therefore, nothing less than resigning all that is sacred and dear to a
Christian people, for time and for eternity. It is certain that whatever
is done to rebuke and arrest the profanation of the Sabbath, must be
done immediately. The work of reform cannot be delayed, without ha-
zarding the irretrievable loss of all the blessings which flow from the
observance of that day. The task has already become formidable and
difficult. It is not, however, altogether hopeless. The Sabbath may
yet be restored, and its blessings perpetuated. The Church and the
ministry can, under God, do all that the exigency demands. Let this
Assembly do their whole duty, let them lift up a voice of strength, let
them send out a loud note of alarm, let them determine, in the strength
of the Lord, to carry out, in their practical relation to the Sabbath, the
true principles of Christian discipline, and the whole Church may be
cleansed^ ihe Sabbath reinstated, and this great and guilty nation saved.
Till this is done, the power of every other Christian enterprise will be
circumscribed and fluctuating. Nothing that is pure and holy can flou-
rish without the Sabbath. The Sabbath reform is ihe fundamental en-
terprise. It is utterly vain to think of substituting any other conserva-
tive power. The question of rescuing the Sabbath from general profa-
nation, is, ahsolulehj, a question of life and death, to every Christian de-
nomination in the world. Such is the momentous nature of the subject
under consideration. Your committee rejoice that in this work, all
hearts may M7»7e, and every minor diff"erence be forgotten. Here is com-
mon ground. The Sabbath of the Lord is the inheritance of all true Chris-
tians. And there is work enough for all. The Church must revive her
■wholesome discipline. — -The ministry must cry aloud and spare not. —
The press must be enlisted — the whole community aroused. The entire
instrumentality which God has prepared for preserving his own institu-
tions, must be called forth, and kept in untiring requisition. For the
purpose of enabling the General Assembly more effectually to speak
their sentiments to the Churches, and the nation, your committee recom-
mend the adojjtion of the following resolutions.

Resolved, That the observance of the Sabbath is indispensable to the
preservation of civil and religious liberty, and furnishes the only security
for eminent and abiding prosperity, either to the Church or the world.

Resolved, That the growing desecration of the Sabbath in our coun-
try, must be speedily arrested, and the habits of the community essen-
tially reformed, or the blessings of the Sabbath, civil, social, and reli-
gious, will soon be irrecoverably lost.

(,. Resolved, That inasmuch as the work of a general reformation belongs,
under God, to the Christian Church, it is the duty of the Church to ap-
ply the. corrections of a firm and efficient discipline, to all known viola-
tions of the Sabbath, on the part of her members.

Resolved, Tliat inasmuch as Ministers of the Gospel must act a con-
spicuous part in every successful effort to do away the sin of Sabbath-
breaking, it is their duty to observe, both in their preaching and their
practice, the rule of entire abstinence from all profanation of the Lord's
day, studiously avoiding even the appearance of evil.

Resolved, That in the judgment of this General Assembly, the own-
ers of stock in steam boats, canals, rail roads, &c., which are in the habit
of violating the Sabbath, are lending their property and their influence
to one of the most wide-spread, alarming^ and deplorable systems of Sab-

Tsath desecration which now grieves the hearts of the pious, and dis-
graces the church of God.

That it be respectfully recommended to the friends of the Lord's
day, as soon as possible, to establish such means of public conveyance
as shall relieve the friends of the Sabbath from the necessity under
which they now labour, of travelling at any time in vehicles which ha-
bitually violate that holy day, and thus prevent them from being in any
way partakers in other men's sins in this respect.

Resolved, That the power of the pulpit and the press must be imme-
diately put in requisition on behalf of a dishonoured Sabbath, that the
magnitude and remedy of the evils, which its violation involves, maybe
fully understood by the whole community.

Resolved, That this Assembly solemnly enjoin it upon the churches
under their care, to adopt without delay, all proper measures for accom-
plishing a general and permanent reformation from the sin of Sabbath-
breaking, and all its attendant evils.

Resolved, That a committee of one from each Synod under the care
of this Assembly, be now appointed, to hold correspondence with minis-
ters and churches, for the purpose of carrying out and applying the lead-
ing principles of the foregoing report and resolutions.

Resolved, That the foregoing report and resolutions be published in
such newspapers, secular and religious, as are friendly to the observance
of the Sabbath.

Resolved, That the following persons be a committee to correspond
on the subject of the Sabbath; viz.

Rev. Edward N. Kirk, of the Synod of Albany,
Rev. Amos Savage, Utica,

Rev. Miles P. Squier, Geneva,

Rev. John C. Lord, Genesee,

Rev. Edward Smith, New York.

Rev. Nicholas Murray, New Jersey,

Rev. James Patterson, Philadelphia,

Rev. David H. Riddle, Pittsburg,

Harmon Kingsbury, Esq. Western Reserve,

Rev. John P. Cleaveland, Michigan,

Rev. James B, Hoge, D. D., Ohio,

Rev. Lyman Beecher, D. D., Cincinnati,

Rev. John Matthews, D. D., Indiana,

Rev. Ralph W. Gridley, Illinois,

Rev. Elijah P. Lovejoy, Missouri,

Rev. William L. Breckinridge, Kentucky,

Rev. William S. Plummer, Virginia,

Rev. Evander McNair, North Carolina,

Eugenius A. Nesbit, Esq., S. Carolina & Georgia,

Rev. Isaac Anderson, D. D., Tennessee,

Rev. Benjamin Labaree, West Tennessee,

Rev. Thomas Alexander, Alabama.

Resolved, That all the ministers in the bounds of the General Assem-
bly, be requested to read the document on the Sabbath from their several
pulpits, and preach on the whole subject which it embraces on or be-
fore the third Sabbath of September next.

The following protest was read and ordered to be entered on the mi-
nutes ; viz.

Whereas thefjGeneral Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, did by

284

their vote on the 7ih inst. reject a resolution disapproving some of the
doctrinal statements contained in Barnes's Notes on the Romans—
which resolution, especially under the peculiar circumstances of the
case, the undersigned considered of high importance to the church
with which we are connected, to the cause of our Lord and Saviour Je-
sus Christ, and to the just exhibition of his grace and truth; we whose
names are su!)scribed, feel constrained, in the name of the great Head
of the Church, solemnly to protest against said decision, for the follow-
ing reasons ; viz.

1. Because we believe that the constitutional standards of the church,
in their plain and obvious meaning, and in the sense in which they have
always been received, are the I'ule of judgment by which ali doctrinal
controversies are to be decided. That it is the duty of the church to
maintain inviolate her doctrine and order, agreeably to those standards ;
to bear her decided testimony against all deviations from them, and
not to countenance them, even by implication. Yet in the above de-
cision, there was, as we believe, a departure from our constitutional rule,
a refusal to bear testimony against errors, with an implied approba-
tion of them, and a constructive denial that Ministers of the Gospel in
the Presbyterian Church are under solemn obligations to conform in
their doctiinal sentiments to our Confession of Faith and Catechisms.

2. Because the errors contemplated in the aforesaid resolution, do not
consist merely, nor chiefly, in inaccurate or ambiguous expressions and
mistaken illusirations, but in sentiments and opinions, respecting the
great and important doctrines of the gospel, whicli are utterly inconsist-
ent with the statement of those doctrines, made in the Confession of
Faith, and revealed in the Word of God. We sincerely and firmly be-
lieve that Mr. Barnes has denied, and that in a sneering manner, that"
Adam was the covenant head of the human race ; that all mankind sinned
in him as such, and were thus brought under the penalty of transgres-
sion ; that Christ suffered the penalty of the law when he died for sin ;
and that the righteousness of Christ is imputed to believers for justifica-
tion. These and similar doctrinal views we regard as material varia-
tions from our standards, as dangerous in themselves, and as contraven-
ing some of the leading principles of our system, such as man's com-
plete dependence, and the perfect harmony of justice and grace in the
salvation of the siimer.

3. Because this expression of approbation of his opinions was passed
aftei*, as we believe, it had been clearly and sufficiently proved to the
Assembly, that Mr. Barnes had denied these important truths, and had
expressed opinions respecting original sin, the nature of faith, and the
nature of justification, which cannot be reconciled with our standards;
and after, instead of retracting any of his doctrinal opinions, he had de-
clared expressly before the Assembly, and published in the preface to
the last edition of his Notes on the Romans, that he had not changed, but
held them still, and was determined to preach them until he died.

For these reasons, and for the glory of God, that we may preserve a
conscience void of off"ence, we request that this our solemn protest may
be entered on the minutes of the Assembly.

The following protest was also offered, and being read, was ordered
to be entered on the minutes, viz.

The undersigned, members of the General Assembly, who were of the
opinion that the appeal of the Rev. Albert Barnes should be sustained
only in part, and that a modified decision should be made, beg leave to
present to the Assembly this brief explanation of their views, and desire
that it may be entered on the minutes, as their Protest against the course
which has been pursued in this case. ,

1. They explicitly declare, that in their opinion the refusal of the Pres-
bytery to bring their records before the Synod, and of Mr. Barreg to ap-
pear and plead in defence when their objections had been overruled, wa&
irregular and censurable; and that although the Synod acted in a manner
that was questionable, and perhaps injudicious, in trying the appeal ol'
Dr. Junkin, without the records of the Presbytery, and in the absence
of Mr. Barnes, who had declined making any defence, yet this irregu-
larity was not of such a nature as to annul their proceedings.

2. They were of the opinion that the charges brought against Mr. Barnes
by Dr. Junkin, were at least partly substantiated, and that on very im-
portant topics of the system of doctrine contained in the Confession of
Faith, and the Word of God; and that, therefore, the appeal could be
sustained only in a modified sense, if at all on this ground, without at*
implied approbation of his doctrinal views,

3. Further, they were of the opinion, that inasmuch as some of the
charges were not fully, if at all sustained; and it may be doubted whe-
ther the Synod ought, as the circumstances of the case appeared to be,
to have inflicted the censure of suspension ; and Mr. Barnes, during the
progress of this trial, exhibited some important alterations of his booky
and made such explanations and disavowals of the sentiments ascribed
to him, as were satisfactory in a considerable degree; the removal of
his suspension might be deemed proper and safe; they were therefore
willing, on this account, to concur in this measure; but did not desire
to sustain the appeal in an unqualified sense.

The undersigned therefore desire to place themselves aright, in the
discharge of their official duty, before this Assembly, and the Church
with which they are connected, and the whole Christian Church, so far
as these transactions may be known ; and cannot consent to be under'
stood as giving countenance to irregular proceedings in the judicatories

286

of the Church, or those who are amenable to them; or as overlooking
erroneous doctrinal sentiments; or as desiring to exercise undue severi-
ty towards the appellant. And they cannot withhold the expression of
their regret, that all their efforts to procure a justly modified decision,
were defeated by the positions occupied by different and opposite por-
tions of the Assembly, in regard to this case; nor will they conceal that
they have painful apprehensions that these things will lead to extended
and increased dissension, and endanger the disruption of the holy bonds
which hold us together as one Church.

FRIDAY morning, June 10th, 8 o'clock. The Assembly met, and be-
gan with prayer.

The minutes of the last session were read.

The committee on leave of absence reported that they have given leave
to the following members, viz. Messrs. Post, A. Kingsbury, Spaulding,
A. Parmelee, Brown, Walker, J. Allan, Pettibone, Bergen, Downer,
Hoyt, Stow, Savage, Carey, Martin, Jennings, Fleming, McCallum,

The following protest was read, and ordered to be entered on the mi-
nutes.—

The undersigned, members of the General Assembly, feel themselves
called upon to protest, and they do hereby protest, against the action of
the Assembly, yesterday, on the subject of Slavery.

The reasons for this protest, among others, are the following, namely,

1. They protest, because of the manner in which the whole vote on
the preamble and resolution was taken. As it now stands, on the mi-
nutes, the votes of many members are recorded in direct opposition to
their real sentiments and intentions.

2. They protest, because the preamble was adopted as explaining tl\e
resolution for indefinite postponement, which immediately follows it,
when, in fact, the resolution was adopted before the preamble, and was
voted for by many, who did not even suspect that the preamble was to
be subsequently reunited to it.

3. They protest, because the adoption of the preamble seems to imply
that both the signers and defenders of the anti-slavery memorials and
petitions, which were presented to the Assembly, had desired the As-
sembly should so "legislate on the subject, as, by its own authority, to
bind the consciences of men," a sentiment, which those signers and de-
fenders unanimously repudiate and disown.

4. They protest, because they apprehend that fronti the course of the
Assembly's action, the inference may possibly be drawn, that those who
voted for postponement, might have deemed it improper for the Assem-
bly freely to discuss the subject of slavery, and to pronounce opinions re-

287

fepcciing it; a sentiment, which the undersigned heartily repudiate and
disown.

5. They protest, because the preamble does not express the true and
only reason, by which many wei'C governed, who voted in the affirma-
tive, namely, a deliberate conviction, that under the existing circumstances^
a discussion of the subject could, in no way, be made to promote the
cause of emancipation.

6. They protest, because the ayes and noes were not taken and record-
ed on the adoption of the preamble, as well as on that of the resolution,
although it is believed they were desired and demanded by at least one
third of the house.

7. They protest, finally, because the question on the adoption of the
preamble and resolution, as a whole, was not submitted to the house, after
both its parts had, iji an inverted order, been separately carried, and when
it is certain that many, if not a majority of those who voted for the post-
ponement, per se, would have voted against the whole minute, had it been
thus submitted as a whole.

Mr. Pratt, Mr. Weaver, and Mr. Sparrow, were appointed a com-
mittee to answer the above protest.

The committee appointed to answer the protests Nos. 2 and 3, brought
in the following answer, which was adopted, and ordered to be entered
on the minutes.

In reply to the two protests of the minority, against the decision of
the Assembly in refusing to censure the first edition of Barnes' Notes
on the Romans, the Assembly remark ;

1. (That by their decision they do not intend to, and do not, in fact,
make themselves responsible for all the phraseology of Mr. Barnes;
some of which is not sufficiently guarded, and is liable to be misunder-
stood; and which we doubt not Mr. Barnes, with reference to his
usefulness, and the peace of the Church, will modify so as to prevent,
as far as may be, the possibility of misconception.^

2. (Much less do the Assembly adopt as doctrines, consistent with our
standards, and to be tolerated in our Church, the errors alleged by the
prosecutor, as contained in the Book on the Romans. It was a question
of fact whether the errors alleged are contained in the book; and by the
laws of exposition, in conscientious exercise of their own rights and du-
ties, the Assembly have come to the conclusion that the book does not
teach the errors charged. This judgment of the Assembly is based on
this maxim of equity and charity, adopted by the Assembly of 1824, in
the case of Craighead, which is as follows, namely: — "A man cannot be
fairly convicted of heresy for using expressions which may be so inter-
preted as to involve heretical doctrines, if they also admit of a more fa-
vourable construction. — It is not right to charge any man with an opinion
which he disavows. "J)The import of this is, that when language claimed
to be heretical, admits without violence of an orthodox exposition, and
the accused disclaims the alleged error, and claims as his meaning the
orthodox interpretation, he is entitled to it, and it is to be regarded as-

288

the true intent and import of his words. But in the case of the first
edition of the Notes on the Romans, the lan,Q;uage is, without violence,
reconcilable with an interpretation conformable to our standards ; and
therefore, all the changes of phraseology which he has subsequently
made, and all his disclaimers before the Assembly, and all his definite
and unequivocal declarations of the true intent and meaning of his
words, in the first edition, are to be taken as ascertaining his true mean-
ing; and forbid the Assembly to condemn the book as teaching great
and dangerous errors.

S. When the Assembly, by sustaining the appeal of Mr. Barnes, by
a majority of 38 ; and by a majority of 67 removed the sentence of his
suspension, and restored him in good standing to the ministry, it is not
competent for the same judicature, by the condemnation of the book, to
inflict on Mr. Barnes indirectly, but really, a sentence of condemnation,
as direct in its effects, and as prostrating to his character and usefulness,
as if it had been done directly, by refusing to sustain his appeal, and by
confirming the sentence of the Synod of Philadelphia: — And what this
Assembly has declared, that it cannot in equity do directly, it cannot, in
equity or consistency, attempt to do indirectly.

4. The proposed condemnation of Mr. Barnes' book, as containing er-
rors materially at variance with the doctrines of our Standards; after
sustaining his appeal, and restoring him to good standing in the minis-
try, would be a direct avowal that great and dangerous errors may be
published and maintained with impunity in the Church. For if the book
does in fact inculcate such errors, it were wrong to attempt to destroy
the book and spare the man. If the charges are real, they are not acci-
dental. Therefore, should the Assembly decide the alleged errors of the
book to be real, it would, by its past decision, declare that a man sus-
pended for great and pernicious errors, may be released from censure,
and restored to an unembarrassed standing in the ministry; a decision to
which this Assembly can never give its sanction.

5. The attempt to condemn Mr. Barnes, by a condemnation of his
book, after he had been acquitted on a hearing on charges wholly found-
ed on the book, is a violation of the fundamental maxim of law, that no
man shall be twice put in jeopardy for the same offence; and if it were
otherwise, and the man might be tried in his person, and tried on his
book, the same process of specification and defence is due to personal
and public justice.

6. So far is the Assembly from countenancing the errors alleged in
the charges of Dr. Junkin, that they do cordially and ex animo adopt the
Confession of our Church, on the points of doctrine in question, accord-
ing to the obvious, and most prevalent interpretation ; and do regard it
as a whole, as the best epitome of the doctrines of the Bible ever formed.
And this Assembly disavows any desire, and would deprecate any at-
tempt, to change the phraseology of our standards, and Avould disapprove
of any language of ligh.t estimation applied to them; believing that no
denomination can prosper whose members permit themselves to ^speak
slightly of its formularies of doctrine ; and are ready to unite with
their brethren, in contending earnestly for the faith of our standards.

7. The correctness of the preceding positions, is confirmed, in the
opinion of the Assembly, by a careful analysis of the real meaning of
Mr. Barnes under each charge, as ascertained by the language of his
book; and the revisions, disclaimers, explanations, and declarations
v^hich he has made.

f In respect to the first charge, that Mr. Barnes teaches, that all sin is

^89

voluntary, the context, and his own declarations, show that he refers to ,
all actual sin merely, in which he affirms the sinner acts under no com- /
pulsion.)

The second charge implies neither heresy nor errors, but relates to
the expression of an opinion on a matter, concerning which, no definite
instruction is contained, either in the I3iblc, or in the Confession of
Faith.

(in respect to the third charge, Mr. Barnes has not taught that unre-
generate men are able, in the sense alleged, to keep the commandments,
and convert themselves to God. It is an inference of the prosecutor
from the doctrine of natural ability, as taught by Edwards, and of the
., natural liberty of the will as taught in the Confession of Faith, Chap.
' ix. sec. 1. I On the contrary, he does teach in accordance with our stand-
ards, that man, by the fall, hath wholly lost all ability of will to any spi-
ritual good accompanying salvation.

Id respect to the fourth charge, that faith is an act of the mind, Mr.
Barnes does teach it in accordance with the Confession of Faith, and
the Bible; but(he does not deny that faith is a fruit of the special influ-
ence of the Spirit,')and a permanent holy habit of mind, in opposition to
a created physical essence. vFhat faith "is counted for righteousness,"
is the language of the Bible, and as used by Mr. Barnes, means, not
that faith is the meritorious ground of justification, but only the instru- -
raent by which the benefit of Christ's righteousness is appropriated.,'

In respect to the fifth charge,{Mr. Barnes no where denies, much less
" sneers" at the idea that Adam was the Covenant and Federal Head of
his posterity: — On the contrary, though he employs not these terms, he
does, in other language, teach the same truths which are taught by this
phraseology,^

In respectto the sixth and seventhcharges,thatthesinof Adamisnotim-
puted to his posterity, and that mankind are not guilty, or liable to pun-
ishment, on account of the first sin of Adam; it is to be observed, that
(it is not taught in the Confession of Faith, that the sin of Adam is im-
puted to his posterity: — The imputation of the guilt of Adam's sin,^
Mr. Barnes affirms, though not as including personal identity, and the
transfer of moral qualities, both of which are disclaimed by our stand-
ard writers, and by the General Assembly.

In respect to the eighth charge,(that Christ did not suff"er the penalty of
the law, as the vicarious substitute of his people ; Mr. Barnes only denies
the literal infliction of the whole curse, as including remorse of con-
science and eternal death ; but admits and teaches, that the sufferings
of Christ, owing to the union of the divine and human natures in the
person of the Mediator, were a full equivalent.^

In respect to the ninth charge, that the righteousness of Christ is not
imputed to his people, (Mr. Barnes teaches the imputation of the right-
eousness of Christ, but not as importing a transfer of Christ's personal
righteousness to believers, which is not the doctrine of our Church :— [
And when he says that there is no sense in which the righteousness of
Christ becomes ours, the context, and his own declarations, show that he
simply means to deny a literal transfer of his obedience; which, on the
contrary, he teaches is so imputed or set to our account, as to become
the only meritorious cause or ground of our justification.

In respect to the tenth charge,*.^Mr. Barnes has not taught that justifi-
cation consists in pardon only; but has taught clearly that it includes
the reception of believers into favour, and their treatment as if they had
not sinnedj}

The committee to whom the communications of Dr. Edwards, on the
subject of Temperance, were committed, made a report, when it was
resolved, ihat all the ministers and members of our churches be earnestly
advised to attend as far as praclicalile to the circulation of the "Per-
manent Documents," and the "Youth's Manual of Temperance," pub-
lished by the American Temperance Society.

The committee on the slate of the church, reported that they had not
agreed on any report. The committee were discharg;ed.

The complaints respecting the churches at Newark and St. George's
were withdrawn.

The following dissent was offered, and ordered to be entered on the
minutes.

The undersigned respectfully dissent from the decision of a majority
of the General Assembly in relation to the last proposiiion contained in
overture No. 13, for reasons contained in the report presented by a mi-
nority of the commitee, which report is as follows; viz.

"The committee to whom was referred overture No. 13, report the
following as an answer to the last proposition; viz. When an elder has
heen suspended from church privileges for an offence, and is again re-
stored to the privileges of the church, is he also restored to his office as
a ruling elder? It is in the power of sessions, to demand for sufficient
reasons, a temporary cessation of the active duties of a ruling elder in
their particular church, but further than this they cannot go wiihout
the consent or direction of the Presbytei'y. This is founded in the nature
of the office; an investment with which extends the influence and du-
ties of the eldership in important respects to the whole church, and as
is often the case with the ministry, it may be proper and profitable to
exercise its functions in some particular congregations, where local or
adventitious circumstances would render it highly inexpedient in them.
At the time of trial for the offence, on account of which an elder is sus-
pended from church privileges, it would be perfectly competent for the
session to have taken the necessary steps for his suspension or deposi-
tion from the eldership as a distinct act. In failure to do so, restora-
tion to membership is a new investment with his office, which was im-
paired only indirectly and inferentially by a suspension of his church
privileges. If the church be aggrieved by such a result, no other re-
dress is left them but a public expression of their unwillingness for his
action, as one of their spiritual rulers. If he then fail to lay down his
performance of his official duties, this would be a proper ground of
complaint to Presbytery who, under the power granted in chapter x,
section 8, of the Form of Government, to inquire into the state of par-
ticular churches, and redress existing grievances, for the purpose of pro-
moting peace and harmony, might order a compliance with their wishes.
The general usages of our churches sanction these principles, and it is be-
lieved they are directly in conformity to chapter xiii, sections 6 and 7,
of the Form of Government.

" In the xviith chapter of the Form of Government, provision is
made for the release of congregations from their Pastors, under circum-
stances which affect their interest: the same rule in its spirit would ap-
ply to the eldership, and the same mode of obtaining redress, there pre-
scribed, must be adopted."

The following answer lo protest No. 4, was read, and ordered to be
entered on the minutes.

In answer to the jjrolest against the vote of this House, in regard to
slavery, the Assembly would say,

That the question for postponement was fairly before the House, and
was decided by a division of tlie question, the vole having been first ta-
ken upon the resolution, and then upon the preamble.

The Assembly judge no injustice was done to any, because it is univer-
sally understood, that when a question is divided, the matter is not end-
ed until a vote has been taken on both parts of the question.

The Assembly moreover judge, that no injustice was done in the de-
cision, inasmuch as when the two parts of the question were decided, the
whole qiiestion was disposed of, and therefore, there was no necessity
or jjropriety in further action.

The Assembly further judge, that the decision was a just and righteous
one, because of the pressure of business rendering it impossible to en-
ter into the merits of the subject.

And finally, the Assembly judge, that no injustice was done to any by
their decision, because it was evident, that a majority of the House was
utterly opposed to any action that would have met the views of those
who now protest against the decision of the Assembly in this matter.

The following answer to protest No. 1, was received, and ordered to
be entered on the minutes.

In answer to the protest of the minority of the General Assembly, on
the sul)ject of Foreign Missions, the majority regard it as due to the
churches, and the friends of missions generally, to state some of the
grounds on which they have declined to carry into effect the arrange-
ment adopted and reported by the committee of the last General Assem-
bly, in regard to the Western Foreign Missionary Society.

We are of opinion,

1. That the powers intended to be conferred upon the above commit-
tee, by the last Assembly, to ratify and confirm the transfer of the said
society from the Synod of Pittsburg to the General Assembly, on such
terms as the said committee might approve, are altogether unusual and
unwarranted; and especially that it was indiscreet and improper for that
Assembly to attempt to confer such unlimited powei's, for such a pur-
pose, in the existing state of the churches, upon so small a committee,
and that too on the last day of the sessions of the Assembly, when more
than one half of the enrolled members of the body had obtained leave
of absence, and had already returned to their homes.

2. That it was unwarrantable and improper for the above committee,
in the exercise of the extraordinary powers supposed to be conferred
on them, to incorporate, in their agreement with the Synod of Pittsburg,
the condition that the supervision of the missions of the Board intended
to be organized, should never be alienated by the General Assembly;
thus endeavouring to bind irreversibly all future Assemblies, by the
stipulations of that committee.

3. It is, therefore, our deep conviction, that it was the duty of this
Assembly to resist the unwarrantable and extraordinary powers of the
above committee, and to reject the unreasonable conditions of their con-
tract with the Synod of Pittsburg.

4. It is our settled belief, that the church of Christ is one by divine
constitution, and that the command is of universal obligation. — " Let there

292

be no divisions among you;" and that wiiatever advantages or disadvan-
tages may have resulted from the divisions of the church into numer-
ous denominations, with conflicting opinions, it can not be our duty, as
Christians, to perpetuate and extend these divisions by incorporating
them in our arrangements to spread the gospel in heathen lands. We
can not, therefore, regard the decision of the Assembly in this case as
a refusal to obey the command of the great Head of the Church to preach
the gospel to every creature. That command, as we understand it, is
not to tlie Presbyterian Church in her distinctive ecclesiastical capacity,
but to the whole Churchy to the collective body of Christ's disciples, of
every name. It was, that they might the more effectually o^c?/ the above
command, by uniting with Christians of other denominations in the
noble work of Foreign Missions, that the Assembly declined to carry
into effect the proposed organization, restricted to the Presbyterian
Church.

5. We do not agree with the protestants in the opinion that the re-
sources of any part of the Presbyterian Church, "can not be called into
action in the missionary cause, without the establishment of a Missionary
Board by the General Assembly." The history of missionary opera-
tions in this and in other countries, furnishes ample evidence that the
energy and zeal cf Christians in the spread of the gospel, are much more
effectually enlisted, and their liberality greatly increased, by more ex-
panded organizations, which overstep the limits of sects, and the bond
of whose union is the one great object of spreading the glorious gospel
of the blessed God. It is our settled belief, that societies formed on
these principles, and including different denominations of Christians,
are actually performing, as the proxies of the Church in the work of
missions, that which the Church, on account of her existing divisions,
can perform in no other way so well. They appear to us to have em-
braced the harmonizing principle which is destined ultimately to re-
unite the churches, and make them one, as it was in the beginning and
will be in the end.

6. While the majority of the Assembly acknowledge their unabated
confidence in the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Mis-
sions, as fully meeting our wishes, and affording a safe and open chan-
nel through which all our churches may, as consistent Presbyterians,
convey their contributions to the cause of Foreign Missions, we do not
regard ourselves as having denied, by the decision protested against, to
the minority, the privilege of conducting their missionary operations,
■with entire freedom, in any other plan which they may prefer. But we
think it unreasonable for them to ask us to form, and to complain of our
not forming, by a vote of the General Assembly, an organization, the
principles of which we do not approve. We do not ask of them to as-
sume the responsibilities of the plan v.'hich we prefer, and we can notregard
ourselves as chargeable with unkindness or injustice in having refused
to assume the responsibilities of the plan which they prefer. If we can
not agree to unite in the same organization, for the same purpose, it ap-
pears to us manifestly proper, that each party should bear the responsi-
bilities of its own chosen plan of operations ; and if our brethren can not
so far commend their principles as to extend their ecclesiastical organi-
zations beyond those "fragments of the church" of which they speak,
they surely ought not to complain of us, "if those in every part of the
church who wish for a general Presbyterian Board," remain dissatisfied.
We would respectfully ask whether they ought not to charge their em-
barrassment, in this respect, to the plan which they have adopted, rather

2»3

than to those who have thosen, on their own responsibility, in the fear
of God, to conduct their missionary operations on other principles. If,
therefore, the minority of the Assembly should hereafter judge them-
selves under 'Mho necessity of resorting to |)luns of ecclesiastical orga-
nization," which shall " inteifere with ecclesiastical harmony," the majo-
rity can not regard themselves as responsible for such results. The
settled belief of the majority of the Assembly is, that the operations of
the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions, with its
numerous auxiliaries, both ecclesiastical and voluntary, within the bounds
of the Presbyterian Church, present the best arrangement for the pro-
motion of the cause of missions by our Churches, and it was to prevent
the ecclesiastical conflicts and divisions which have resulted from the
operations of other similar organizations, that they have thought it their
duty to decline the organization proposed. They have made their de-
cision for the purpose, and with the hope of securing and promoting
• the unioTi in the missionary work which has so ha|>pily existed in former
years. With these views and hopes, they commend the cause of mis-
sions, and their solemn and conscientious decision, to the blessing of
God, and pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Resolved, That the Rev. Luther Halsey, D. D., be appointed On the
committee to prepare the history of the Presliyteriun Church, in the
place of the Rev. Ezra S. Ely, D. D., resigned.

The committee on overture No. 17, respecting a change in the time
of holding the Monthly Concert of Prayer, made a report, which was
not adopted.

The report of the committee on the records of the Synod of Philadel-
phia, was taken up, and the records were approved.

The following protest was offered, and ordered to be entered on the
minutes, viz.

The undersigned desire to enter their protest against the vote of the
Assembly, to strike out from the answer to the protest against the post-
ponement of the subject of slavery, the words, "because the memorials
and some of the speeches were highly abusive and disorderly, denouncing
a large number of the members of the Assembly, in direct violation
of the 21st rule of the House," because,

1. The words state nothing but the truth.

2. Because the facts referred to io the words ordered to be stricken out,
were in great part the grounds upon which the whole subject was post-
poned.

3. Because the vole to strike out was taken, notwithstanding several
members opposed to it, loudly and earnestly requested permission to be
heard before the vote was taken,

G. W. Musgrave, Sam.uel Boyd, Thomas A. Ogden, J. H. Gray, F. H.
Porter, A. George, Samuel Hendeison, William Wallace, P. J. Sparrow,
J. Le Roy Davies, J. Stoneroad, W. W. Phillips, W. P. Alrich, J. Mc-
Elroy, William Marshall, J. V. Henry, R. J. Minor, H. S. Pratt, S. S.
Davis, S. G. Wincliester, James Lenox.

The following protest was also offered, and ordered to be entered on
the minutes.

The undersigned would solemnly jirotest against the decision of the
General Assembly, during their present session, by which the subject of
slavery was indefinitely postponed, on a jjreamble and resolution of Dr.
Hoge; thus excluding any further consideration of Mr. McElhenny's
substitute for the reports of the majority, and counter report of one of
the minority of the committee appointed on this subject, at the last Ge-

294

neral Assembly, together with the numerous memorials and petitions
from different sections of the Church, presented during the present
meeting of the Assembly.

And we enter our protest for the following reasons.

1. Because such decision is inconsistent with former doings of the
Assembly on the subject of Slavery.

2. Because said decision is founded on a false interpretation of the
constitutional powers of the General Assembly.

3. Because it is the sacred duly of the Presbyterian Church, in her
distinctive chai*acter, to give a frunk response to respectful petitions and
memorials of her members, both at the north and south, relative to the
system of slavery as it exists in these United States.

The committee on overtures Nos. 6 and 16, made a report, which
being read, was adopted, viz.

The committee to whom was referred overture No. 6, being a memo-
rial from the Synod of West Tennessee, in relation to their boundaries,
beg leave to submit the following report.

That the memorialists pray the General Assembly to detach that por-
tion of the Presbytery of Muhlenburg, which lies within tiie bounds
of the State of Tennessee, and which includes the Presbyterian Church
at Clarksville, from said Presbytery, and attach it to the Presbytery of
Nashville, and to restore the boundary line between the Presbyteries,
which formerly was the line between the states of Tennessee and Ken-
tucky.

A memorial adverse to this memorial, has also been presented by the
Synod of Kentucky.

A petition from the members of the Presbyterian Church at Clarks-
ville, has also been i)resented, joining in the prayer of the memorial, and
expressing the belief that this alteration of boundary would tend to pro-
mote the inteiesls of the Church in that section of the country.

It is therefore evident, that those who are the most deeply interested,
desire the change, and express their belief that it would be beneficial;
and as the reasons offered by the Synod of Kentucky are not sufficient,
in the judgment of the committee, to justify a refusal of the petition,
they would therefore recommend the adoption of the following resolu-
tion.

Resolved, That all that portion of the Presbytery of Muhlenburg,
which lies within the bounds of the slate of Tennessee, be attached to
the Presbytery of Nashville, so that hereafter the slate line be the bound-
ary between the two Presbyteries.

The report of the committee on the rights of ministers without char-
ges to a seat in the judicatories of the Church, was taken up, and inde-
finitely postponed.

The appeal of Asahel Smith, from a decision of the Synod of Cincin-
nati, was postponed to the next General Assembly.

The commillee on overture No. 12, viz. with regard to Evangelists,
was taken up, and, after some discussion, was again laid on the table.

The appeal of the Rev. Sayers Gazlay, from the Synod of Cincinnati,
was taken up, and postponed to the next General Assembly.

The report of the committee on overture No. 2, relating to vacant
churches, was called up, and postponed to .the next General Assembly.

29j

The committee on overture No. 19, respecting difliculties in the church,
made a report, which was indefinitely postponed.

The Stated Clerk, with Mr. Winchester and Mr. Duffield, were ap-
pointed a committee to revise the minutes, and prepare them for publi-
cation.

Bills were presented for the incidental expenses of the present Assem-
bly, amounting to one hundred and fifty-four dollars and thirty-eight
cents.

Ordered, That the Trustees give a warrant on the Treasurer for the
payment of the above sum of one hundred and fifty-four dollars and thir-
ty-eight cents, for the payment of the incidental expenses of the Assem-
bly.

Resolved, That the thanks of the Assembly be presented to the citi-
zens of Pittsburg, for their kindness and hospitality towards the mem-
bers of the Assembly.

Resolved, That calling the roll previously to dissolving the Assembly,
be dispensed with.

The Assembly having finished their business, it was resolved, that
this General Assembly be dissolved ; and that another General Assem-
bly, chosen in like manner, be required to meet in the Central Church,
in the City of Philadelphia, on the third Thursday of May, 1837, at 11
o'clock, A. M.

The Moderator dissolved the Assembly accordingly, with prayer, and
the benediction.

APPENDIX.

NARRATIVE OF THE STATE OF RELIGION.

The Assembly have found it difficult to compress within the narrow limits usually as-
signed to this narrative, an accurate and faithful exhibition of the state of religion within
the extensive territory occupied by our Church.

Revivals of religion have always been regarded with interest by the Church, as fur-
nishing delightful evidence of the gracious presence of that Spirit whose office is both
to comfort and sanctify.

■Reports have been received from about 100 of 127 Presbyteries, belonging to the
Presbyterian Church, in the United States. Of these, one Presbytery, Ontario, reports
revivals in nine churches under their care ; one Presbytery, Rochester, reports seven ;
three, Geneva, Ottawa, New York, 3d, report four revivals ; tv/o report three revivals ;
nine report two revivals ; seventeen mention one church within their bounds, as blessed
with the special influences of the Spirit ; and fifty Presbyteries report no revival in a
single congregation within their bounds.

From these facts the Assembly cannot resist the melancholy conviction, that the last
year has been one in which the churches have been deserted by the Divine Spirit, to
a degree unexampled in our former history. Sixty-nine churches within our whole
bounds, have been distinctly stated to have enjoyed a season of refreshing from the
presence of the Lord ; so that making a liberal allowance for imperfection in the reports,
less than one hundred churches out of twenty-eight hundred, have enjoyed revivals of
greater or less extent, during the year. It is with deep sorrow and hu.Tiiliation we
would refer to the departure of the Spirit, from our Zion. The rebukes of Heaven
are upon us ; and these signs of the times call loudly upon our churches to humble them-
selves before God, to inquire into the causes of our sad declension, and to pray with
increasing fervour for that Spirit, whose presence, gentle as the dews of Heaven, will
put an end to all, and heal all our backslidings, and give life to those churches, where
now the stillness of death reigns. The Assembly, however, woukl not despair ; for
Zion's King still reigns : we would look to the hills, whence cometh our help ; our help
cometh from the Lord, which made the heavens and the earth.

Former Assemblies have regarded with interest and pleasure, the progress of tempe-
I'ance in our land. This noble cause has made cheering progress in times past, and
M'e regard much of the ground thus won from the enemy as safe. But let us not be
flushed by past achievements, so as to forget the present danger. We would not dis-
guise from the churches, that twenty-six Presbyteries have reported it stationary or
declining, while twenty-five only have given us information of an onward progress in
this cause, so vital to the best interests of man. We are persuaded, that in this warfare,
the best weapons are "ligiit and love," and we woidd lift our warning voice against the
.spirit of harsh and unkind denunciation, which has to some extent prevailed in regard
to this matter. While the Christian temper is preserved, and none of the ordinances
of the church brought into jeopardy, we w(;uld bid God speed to all labourers in this
cause, notwithstanding differences of views as to the wisest measures to promote it.

It is with great pleasure we h:ive learned that the churches under our care, are in-
creasing in the liberality wilii which they patronize (he benevolent institutions of the
day. There is an uniform testimony on tins subject, and that is, that in every section
of our church, liberal benefactions have been bestowed on the cause of foreign and do-
mestic missions. We woidd hope that the prayers and alms of the church have gone
up together as a memorial before the Lord ; but from information communicated to us,
we have much reason to deplore thai the monthly concert of prayer, a season when
Christians have the privilege of pouring out their hearts to God, for a dying world, is
not habitually attended by more than one out of every eight members of our commu-
nion. The Assembly would hope that the churches would enlarge tlieir liearts, when
they come before the Lord for 'his greai cause ; and that tliey would multiply the num-
ber, and increase the importunity of their petitions, that his kingdom may come, whose
right it is to reign in every land under the whole Heaven.

297

The spirit of emigration 13 wasting some of our clnirclies ; and a spirit of adven-
turous speculation and increasing woridiiness is jjervading otiiers, and eating out
their piety as doth canker. We liope that the solemn admo.-iition of the Apostle
will be remembered by all that are making haste to be rich : — 'lliey tliat will be rich,
fall into a temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which
drown men in destruction and perdition ; for the love of money is tiie root of all evil ;
which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves
through with many sorrows.

The institutions of the Sabbath continue to be regarded with affection and attention
b} our ciuirclies ; and the attendance on tlie outward means, it is believed, lias never
been belter. Sabbath Scliools are still justly regarded by tiie most of our churches
as blessed nurseries for the Cluircii of Ciirist, in which the minds of the young are
imbued witli that knowledge, wiiich by the divine blessing has, in thousands of in-
stances, made them wise unto salvation.

It is with pain and sorrow we have learned from many of the presbyteries that the sin
of Sabbath-breaking prevails to an alarmirig extent. On this holy day the cities and
villages pour out their population on the surrounding country, to corrupt and pollute
it ; and upon all tiie great thoroughfares of our country, even some professors of religion
may be found either directly or indirectly violating God's holy rest ; thus contributing
by their influence, to bring into contempt an institution which we cannot but regard as
vital to our common Christianity.

From the reports of the Assembly's Boards of Education and Missions, we have
learned that they are prosecuting their respective objects with vigour and success.
The Assembly's Board of Missions have two hundred and fifty missionaries in the field \
and the Board of Education have six hundred young men in course of preparation for
the gospel ministry. Our Theological Seminaries continue to flourish ; may they long
continue to be nurseries of deep-toned piety, as well as of sound learning.

The reports received from the congregational churches in New England, exhibit a
healthy state of piety in the land of the pilgrims, and give cheering evidence that
God has not forgotten to revive his work in many of their waste places during the
past year.

The American Home Missionary Society, still continues to be a blessing to many
ready to perish, and the Assembly are happy to learn that the smiles of heaven still
rest on the American Bible Society, and hope it will continue to posse; s the undivided
confidence of all the churches.

In reviewing the past year, we hope its solemn admonitions will not be forgotten.
The troubles and agitations of our beloved church still continue ; the Spirit's influences
are withheld; prayer is restrained before God; the love of many waxes cold ; the spirit
and temper of the world is invading the Church, and threatening in many places to
mar or destroy, the beautiful features of our holy religion ; and our church may soon be-
come like the mountains of Gilboa, on which neither the rain nor dew of heaven descended.

That .since the last settlement, made m May, 1835, the treasurer has received, on the

THE NINTH ANNUAL REPORT

Of the Board of Directors of the Weste7'n Theological Seminary^
to the General Jisscmhly.

The Directors of the Western Theological Seminary, state with gratitude, to the
gfreat Head of the Church, that the institution under their care is in a flourishing con-
dition, as to the number and the general spirit of the students. The state of piety gene-
rally is highly gratifying, and the missionary spirit in particular is decidedly advancing.
We believe we may say, that in no seminary in our country, in proportion to its num-
bers, have as many devoted themselves to the work of preaching the Gospel to the
Heathen. The spirit that led Laird and Lowrey and Barr and Newton and Wilson to
the foreign field, yet lives and flourishes within its walls. Besides those already in the
field, one has just left the seminary as a missionary to China, and several others have
devoted themselves to the same great work. The health of the students generally
has been good, and promoted, it is believed, by the facilities for manual labour, which
have been enjoyed. During the past year, a handsome and convenient workshop,
through the liberality of Walter Lowrie Esq., has been erected, to increase still more
these facilities, of which it is hoped the students will find it advantageous both to their
health and pecuniary resources to avail themselves.

302

There have been added to the Seminary, during the past year, the following indivi-
duals, viz.

During summer session —

Reuben Lewis, Western I3niversity, Pa.

Lemuel G. Olmsted, Union College.

During winter session —

J. W. Murray, Jefferson College.

John Smith, Washington College.

Joseph Chambers, Jefferson College.

Robert B. Walker, Ditto.

J. R. Knott, Ditto.

William McMichael, Meadville College.

H. Brown, Jefferson College.

Addison Coffy,

Alexander Ewing, Jefferson College.

Stephen Riggs, Ditto.

Joseph Templeton, Ditto.

The Curator of the Seminary reports a balance in the treasury, for contingent
expenses, at last report, - - - - - - $25 60J

Received during the year, from yarious sources, ... 134 92

Expended in various ways, ...... 163 40

Leaving a balance in the treasury of - - - - - 7 12^

And that twenty-four students have not settled their accounts with the contingent fund,
amounting in all to $ 162 00.

The Board are gratified in being able to state, that Dr. Elliott, who was chosen by
the last General Assembly to the professorship of ecclesiastical history, has, after much
deliberation, accepted the appointment. Dr. Halsey, who has, since his first connexion
with the seminary, conducted both the departments of ecclesiastical history and didactic
theology, having expressed a desire that he should be transferred to the chair of eccle-
siastical history, and Dr. Elliott to that of theologj^, the Board recommend this transfer
to the action of the Assembly. With this organization of the seminary, the Board be-
lieve that the institution will prove a great and extensive blessing to our churches.

The Board of Directors would also state to the General Assembly, that in their opi-
nion the interests of the seminary would be promoted by a transference of its supervi-
sion and direction to the Synod within whose bounds it is located, if the said Synod
should be willing to assume that responsibility, and they therefore respectfully request
the Assembly to adopt a resolution authorizing the Board to accede to such a change,
if the necessary arrangements can be made with the Synod of Pittsburg.

From the reports of examining committees at various times, the Board have pleasing
evidence of the industry of the students, the fidelity of the professors, and the sound-
ness of the doctrines taught in the institution. No progress has been made during the
past year in the completion of permanent professorships, or of the seminary buildings ;
and the money necessary for the support of professors, has been raised by special agen-
cies in the Presbyteries of the Synod of Pittsburg. The Board have, however, recently
appointed a general agent, who, it is hoped, will complete speedily the whole pecuni-
ary arrangements for placing the institution on the most substantial foundation.

The Board request from the Assembly, for the different purposes of the seminary, the
sum of four thousand five hundred dollars.

We have only further to report that the term of service of the following persons ex-
pires during the present sessions of the Assembly, viz. — Drs. F. Herron, Ashbel Green,
M. Brown, D. Elliott ; and Messrs. Elisha Macurdy, E. P. Swift, John Stockton ; Elders
Harmar Denny, John Kannen, and Hugh Campbell ; and that the Rev. A. D. Campbell,
being appointed general agent for the seminary, and instructor in church government
and discipline, has resigned his seat in the Board.

All of which is respectfully submitted,

By order of the Board.

REPORT
Of the Board of Directors of Union Theological Seminary.

The Board of Directors of Union Theological Seminary, respectfully report to the
General 'Assembly,

That during the past year, twelve students have been received into the Seminary.

The whole number connected with the Seminary during the year has been twenty-
eight.

The Faculty continues as per last report.

The Rev. Benjamin M. Smith, who has served in the capacity of Assistant Teacher
of Oriental Literature, to the entire satisfaction of tlie Board, for two years past, has
left the institution for the purpose of further prosecuting his studies in foreign uni-
versities.

The Board have again employed the Rev. Elisha Ballantine as Assistant Teacher of
Oriental Literature. Mr. Ballantine's travels in foreign parts, and the advantages he
has enjoyed while prosecuting his stutlies in Europe, added to his former reputation as
Assistant Teacher in this department, give promise of great usefulness to the Seminary.

The general health of the institution has been good. But notwithstanding the sa-
lubrity of our climate, and the advantages which our situation affords for the preserva-
tion of health ; the Board have been informed by the Faculty, that there is a general
failing of the vigour of the constitution during the Seminary coui'se ; an evil much to be
lamented, and for whicli no remedy presents itself to the Board. It is an evil so gene-
ral in Theological Seminaries, affecting so deeply the interests of the church at large,
that, for its removal, the best efforts and the sanctified wisdom of the General Assembly
might be well employed.

It is gratifying to the Board to report, that they learn from the report of the Faculty,
that among the students there has been, during the year, a manifest growth in grace,
and an unusual prevalence of brotlierly love and Christian confidence. There is, among
the students, a spirit of personal devotion to the cause of foreign missions, whicli, from
our isolated position, and the many domestic claims about us, could scarcely be
expected.

The deficiency in the funds has a depressing effect upon the institution ; but the
Board still have confidence in the churches and friends of the Seminary, that, prompted
by the great Head of the Church, they will, ere long, supply this deficiency; complete
the Professorships ; and enable the Board to make the necessary additions to the
library. By order of the Board,

April, 1836. J. H. C. LEACH, Secretary.

EEPOllT OF THE TRUSTEES OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.

To the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church in the
United States of America.

The Board of Trustees respectfully state that they have directed their Treasurer,
agreeably to the provisions of tlie ninth section of the Cliarter of Incorporation, to lay
before the General Assembly an exact state of the accounts of the corporation. The
casli accounts of the late and present Treasurers of their receipts and expenditures for
the past year, have been examined by a committee of the Trustees appointed for that
purpose, who have certified that tlie same are correct, and supported by vouciiers.
The committee have also examined the certificates of bank stock, and other securities
in the Treasurer's hands, and have certified the same to be correct, agreeably to a list
attested by them. The accounts have been also regularly posted in tlie leger, under
the several heads of account for the different funds under the charge of the Trustees,
and balanced to tlie 1st May, 1836, agreeably to the balance sheet of that date. A
detailed account of the several investments of stock and other securities, appropriated
to the different funds, is also furnished. To these exhibits, the Trustees respectfully
refer tlie General Assembly for particular information in relation to the state of the se-
veral funds under their charge.

The whole amount received by the late and present Treasurers from 1st May, 1835,
to 1st May, 1836, was $24,548 43, making, together with $1395 90, in the hands of the
late Treasurer at the first mentioned date, the sum of $25,944 33. The expenditures
during the year have amounted to $25,241 19, leaving a balance in the hands of the
present Treasurer, at the close of the fiscal year. May 1, 1836, of $703 14.

On the 23d of May, 1833, the Trustees made a detailed report to the General Assem-
bly, exhibiting the state of the funds, the difficulties under which they laboured, and
the deficiencies which had arisen, owing to the General Assembly having anticipated
the means furnished by the churches, and their having appropriated annually for con-
tingent expenses, and for the support of the Theological Seminary at Princeton, larger
sums than were received for those objects. The Trustees having repeatedly exercised
the power delegated to them by the General Assembly of borrowing money to supply
deficiencies, had been obliged, in order to pay the appropriations made by the General
Assembly, to borrow of the permanent funds, and this in a measure reduced their an-
nual receipts from those sources. Under these circumstances, the annual income being
very inadequate to the necessary expenditures, a committee of the General Assembly,
to whom the report of the Trustees was referred, on the 27th of May, 1833, made a re*
port, recommending certain resolutions, which were adopted by tlie Assembly, among
which was the following —

"That the Trustees be requested to consider whether safe investments of the funds,
or a part of them, may not be made, so as to produce a higher rate of interest than they
now yield ; and if so, tiiey are advised to endeavour to effect a change of stock."

In compliance with the above resolution, the Trustees appointed a Committee of Fi-
nance, clothed with authority to make such changes in the investments as they might
deem advantageous; who, on the 2d of April, 1835, reported to the Trustees that they
had made sale of the following stocks, belonging to the different funds, viz.
43,000 dollars Pennsylvania 5 per cents, .... $ 46,456 25

25 shares of Philadelphia Bank stock, .... 2,675 50

The above investments were deemed by the Finance Committee to be safe, two of
the members of the Committee having invested in several of the above banks larg'e por-
tions of their private funds. The annual income afforded by the stocks sold, at from 3
to 7 per cent., was §5,240 00 ; tliat expected from the new stocks, at the accustomed
dividends of the banks of from 8 to 10 per cent., which has been hitherto, justified by
the event, was $7,900 00, yielding an increase of annual income of $2,660 00.

The Pennsylvania 5 per cents sold, cost $43,181 00, and were sold (deducting com-
missions,) for $46,340 11, making a gain of $2,159 11. The United States Bank stock
was sold when the question of the expiration of its charter appeared to be settled, nor
could human foresiglit anticipate the favourable change which has taken place in the
concerns of that institution. The stock sold, cost $50,019 77, and was sold, deducting
commissions, for $45,360 82, making a loss of $4,658 95. It would be worth, at the
present market price, $,51,660 00.

During tlie months of April and May of the past year, the Committee on Finance sold
$20,000 00, Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company 5 per cent, stock, for the sum of
$19,551 00, deducting commissions, of which sum they invested $19,106 25 in 200
shares of the Planters' Bank of Tennessee, and paid the balance, $444 75, to the Trea-
surer of the Trustees. On the 24th of December, 1835, they sold the house No. 81
South Second Street, Philadelphia, the nett income of which was very small, for $7,000
(a larger sum than was bidden for the house at public sale,) of which $3,000 00 were
paid in cash, and $4,000 secured by bond and mortgage at 6 per cent. On the 10th of
March, 1836, they sold two shares of stock of the Bank of Pennsylvania, for $ 1,058 00,

The total amount of cost of the new bank stocks, is $123,029 80, and the present mar-
ket prices of the same amount to $128,050 00.

Since the repoit of the Trustees to the General Assembly, of May 23, 1833, the
funds under then- charge have been in a course of gradual amelioration. A loan from
Mr. Solomon Allen, of $2,400 00, for the contingent expenses of the General Assem-
bly, has been nearly repaid from the proceeds of his sales of the Psalms and Hymns ;
llie balance due him, according to his statement on the 28lh of April last, being $212 36;
The sum of $ 2,671 09, has been invested in stock from the cash funds of the Trustees,
which has been apphed towards reducing the deficiencies in the permanent fund of the
Theological Seminary, and the Students' fund, and in the investment of stock to the
amount of $700 00, for the ED Scholarship, the capital of which had been borrowed

307

for the contingent expenses of the General Assembly. The income of this ScholarsTiip
has been regularly paid.

The income of the permanent funds of the Theological Seminary, as at present in-
vested, together with the contributions from the churches, have enabled the Trustees
to meet the increased appropriation of the General Assembly for professors* salaries, of
$ 6,800 00, and to pay off tlie amount of arrears of the previous year, of $ 1,977 77, the
salaries being now paid to 1st of May. 1836. The Trustees have also made one pay-
ment for six months, at the rate of six per cent, per annum, on the amount paid upon
each sciiolarship, on which they receive dividends of stock, which is more than had
been paid for several years.

During the past year the Trustees have received a certificate of ten shares of stock
in the United Passaick and Hackensack Bridge Company, amounting at par to $ 1,000,
bequeathed to tliem by the late Dr. John R. IJ. Rodgers, together with back dividends
on the same, amounting to $225 00. Tliey have also taken measures for tlie recovery
of a bequest of $1,500 00, by the late Mr. Thomas Arden of New York.

On tiie 1st of May, 1835, the amount of stock and other securities invested, was
$152,159 16. On the 1st of May, 1836, it was $161,629 80, inchiding $7,000 00,
proceeds of the sale of tlie liouse No. 81 South Second street.

As stated in the report of the Trustees to tlie General Assembly, of 23d of May,
1833, considerable deficiencies still remain in the permanent fund of the Theological
Seminary, owing to the overdraughts of former years, and to this fund never having
been adequate to the oI)ject for which it was intended. The Trustees rely on the ef-
forts of the General A.ssembly, Mud the liberality of the churches, to furnish such means
as may enable them to place the funds of the Seminary on a secure and permanent
footing, and to continue their annual contributions for professors' salaries. Should these
be liberal, the increased appropriation for those salaries may be met, and the sums bor-
rowed from the Permanent fund be gradually repaid.

The magnitude and importance of the trust confided to the Trustees, has led them
to deem it their duty to make to the General Assembly the foregoing exposition of its
concerns ; and the great responsibility which rests upon them in relation to the invest-
ment of its funds, induces them to commit to your venerable borly a decision on the
course adopted by the Trustees, in compliance, as above stated, with a resolution of the
General Assembly, in relation to the investments made in Rank stocks with a view to
increased revenue. These investments have been considered by the Committee of Fi-
nance to be safe as well as productive. But if the General Assembly should be of opi-
nion that all investments of their funds should be made in those securities of real estate
or state stocks, which courts are wont to authorize in cases of trusts, the Trustees re-
quest their direction to that effect. In that case, an annual income of more than 5^ per
cent., on the amount invested, could not be obtained, and a yearly deficiency, exceed-
ing §3,000 00, would arise in the payment of salaries of professors, and income of scho-
larships, which it would be necessary to provide for in some other way, or the sums now
appropriated could not be paid.

The Treasurer of the Trustees will attend the General Assembly, and will give such
explanations and further information as they may require.

By order of the Board.

May 10, 1836. JAMES BAYARD, Secretary.

At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church in the United States of America, it was

Resolved, That the foregoing statement be transmitted to the General Assembly at

REPORT OF MR. GEORGE FLEMING, ON THE PSALM AND HYMN BOOK,

Carlisle, May 24th, 1836.
To the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian

Church.

Rev. Sir,

Agreeably to a resolution of the last Assembly, empowering the Stated and Per-
manent Cieiks of that body, to procure the transfer of tlie copy-right and plates of an
arranged edition of Psalms and Hymns, owned by me, to the Trustees of the Assem-
bly, I repaired to Philadelphia last June, and made the requested transfer to Dr. Ely,
(Dr. McDowell being absent from the city). Agreeably to the terms of that arrange-
ment, the plates and copy-right were transferred to the Assembly, without any advance
of money on its part for the price thereof. They were to be paid for out of the sale of
the work. I was to be the agent of the Assembly for publishing them, and to be al-
lowed ten per cent, on all money necessarily expended in the pubhcation, and for su-
perintending the same, and six per cent, interest on the price of the plates, &c., until
they were paid for out of the sales. All the profits of the publication, beyond the per
rentage allowed, to belong to the Assembly, and to be applied, in the first place, to
pay me for the plates, Sic, and after that, to be paid over to the Treasurer of the
Assembly.

Presuming that a report of the operations with this publication will be expected, I
have sent you this communication, embodying the facts in the case.

It was in the month of July last, that the transfer of the plates was made to the As-
sembly. Not being a resident of any commercial emporium, where the business of
bookselling could be carried on with efficacy ; with the approbation of one of the com-
mittee, (the other member being absent) and of several Presbyterian Clergymen in
Philadelphia, 1 put the work into the- hands of an extensive bookseller in Philadel-
phia, Mr. Joseph VVhetham, to issue the publication for the Assembly. It was consider-
ably advanced in August, before any books were ready for market. Since that time up
to the 16lh of this instant, there have been printed and disposed of, 5750 copies; the
paper, press-work, binding and commission on which amounted to $1,338 06.

Credit.
By 4,750, .sold to booksellers, &c., a 28 c. - - $1,330 00

By 1000, do. in sheets, a 18 c. - - - - 180 00

$1,510 00

Deduct cost, ....... 1,338 06

Nett profits to be applied to the payment of the plates, and the in-
terest on their cost^ - - - - . - $171 94

Cost of plates (after deducting five per cent, for cash payment,) $463 61
One set 24 mo. blocks, ..... 22 75

Seven small boxes, for plates, ... - 3 50

$489 86
Interest for 10 months, - - - - - - 24 49

$514 35
Deduct profits as above stated, ..... 171 94

Balance still due Agent, ..---- $342 41

From present indications, there is reason confidently to believe, that the profits on
the sales the coming' year, will liquidate the above balance, and leave something to go
into the funds of the Assembly.

All which is respectfully submitted.

GEORGE FLEMING.
