May 21, 1851.
In my opinion, and judging from my own experience, annuities
secured for a family are of important service to relieve the mind of
a father of a helpless family from corroding anxiety on their account.
Il^has heen for many years a comfort to me, that my family will have
the benefit of annuities at my decease ; and though on account of my
protracted' life, the fund will be a great gainer by me, yet I do not
regret that, as the gain belongs to a benevolent institution.

THE CHURCH OF GOD
AS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE GOSPEL.

BY REV. ..jART ROBINSON,
LATE I'ROFESSOR IN THE THEOLOGICAL 9E.MINAKY AT DANVILLE, KENTUCKY.
with an Appendix, containing the more Important Symbols of Presbyterian Govern
ment, Historically arranged and illustrated, to wit:
Ane sciiort somme of the I'irst Boik of Discipline.
The Second Buik of DiscirLiNE, or Heades and conclusion of the policie op the Kirk.
Robert Baillie's letter, 1C43.
Extracts from Gillespie's Notes of procedure in the Westminster Assembly.
The fOTES passed in Westminster Assembly concerning Discipline and Government
And the Form of Government agreed upon by the Westminster Assembly.
Rev. Patrick Fairbairn of Glasgow, Scotland, under date of August 31st,
1858, in a private letter, says: — Rev. Dr. Robinson's work I have read with
pleasure and profit. He takes the right plan of trying to elevate the idea
and bring the external organization into vital connection with the divine truth
and principles on which all is based. "Were this but more done, we should
have more life among ourselves, and probably, also fewer controversies on
subordinate points with others.
Rev. Charles Hodge, D. D., in the Princeton Review, says : — This work
of Rev. Dr. Robinson is too elaborate, and contains too many important
principles, to be cursorily noticed. It is obviously the production of a stron^
and through-going man, and will, we trust, secure increased attention to the
important subject of which it treats.
Rev. B. J. Wallace, in the Presbyterian Quarterly Revieio, says : — Dr.
R. is a jure divino Presbyterian, and some of his views are rather hi"-h-
church for what he seems to consider a dilletante age. It will do any man
good, however, to look at this manly and comprehensive way of considering
a subject, following it out to all its consequences, not shrinking from the
totality of a great idea. Dr. R. considers Presbyterianism as a grand whole,
and as the only perfect method of a church.
Rev. C. Van Rensselaer, in the Presbyterian 3Iagazine, says : — It is char-
acterized by an earnestness and vigour of thought and style, which keep
alive the attention and interest of the reader, and it possesses at the same
time, an argumentative and logical structure adapted to instruct and convince
the understanding, and will be very beneficial to all our members, especially
to ministers, ruling elders, and candidates for the ministry.
Rev. John Leyburn, D. D., in the Presbyterian, says: — The general scope
and central idea of the work may be gathered from the title. The author
takes high ground, and maintains his positions with characteristic vigour.
The value of the volume is greatly enhanced by the Appendix, whichcon-
tains important documents, which have not been readily accessible.
Rev. A. F. Kemp, in the Canadian Presbyter, says : — It is refreshing to
find that some one is disposed in this age of general church disorder, to hold up
to view, and boldly to maintain the jus divinum of our Presbyterian polity.
We hail this book as a valuable contribution to the literature of the Church.
The work is a neat 12mo. volume, 226 pages, cloth, sixty cents.

INTRODUCTION.
In the preparation of the Presbyterian Historical Almanac and
Annual Remembrancer of the Church for 1859-1860, I have been
governed by an earnest desire to place in the hands of its friends a
practical and useful work. To give directness to my labours, I have
kept this idea prominently before my mind, "What has the Church
a right to expect in such a volume ?"
In common with other members of the Presbyterian Church, I feel,
that to be fully conversant with her onward progress, I must know
how each branch of the family have carried on the various institutions
of religion ; how they have fulfilled their duties to God and man, and
what success has crowned their efforts.
The experience and observation of the past year has prompted me,
whilst preserving the plan of the Almanac, to enlarge its basis, so
that I might include various Statistics, Historical Sketches, and
Tables, which, though not coming within the range of the year, pos-
sess a definite value, by enabling the reader to be fully advised con-
cerning the past history of the subjects to which they refer.
Statistics should be reliable, suggestive, and instructive ; with these
three elements of value, they form the most direct and conclusive
means of imparting information.
In order to secure the first element, reliability, I have taken the re-
ports of the difierent Presbyterian bodies as they were presented at
their last Annual meetings, and bringing them all under one general
plan, have so divided each department that the pith of the matter is
brought to light ; where these revelations manifest inertness, or any
deficiency in one branch of the family, a remedy may be suggested,
by comparing the success which has rewarded the prayers and efforts
3 ( 17 )
38 INTRODUCTION.
of some other branch of the Church in the same department of useful-
ness ; the mind of the reader is thus edified, and his future opinions be-
come more intelligent and valuable. We would, therefore, ask for a
careful observation of the different columns in which the Presbytcrial
reports are divided : take as an instance the first Presbytery on the
list, (sec page 80,) which reports 42 ministers, this is well enough as
far as it goes ; but on a closer examination it will be found that 21
are pastors, being one-half of the whole number ; 7 are stated supplies.
6 are teachers, editors, agents, &c., and 8 are without charge. The
churches are 33, but only 21 have pastors, 9 stated supplies, and 3
are vacant. The number of additions to the communion during the
year were 549, reported by 28 churches, leaving 5 churches without
reporting any. The number of infant baptisms is 162, reported by
26 churches, leaving 7 without any report. In a similar manner
the financial branch of the report can be examined ; by this arrange-
ment it can be seen what has been done, as well as deficiencies noted,
and in consequence the reader comes to a direct and well-founded
conclusion. And when these tables are compared with similar tables
in the Almanac for 1858-1859, their value is increased. These re-
marks apply to the analysis given of the operations of the Boards and
Committees.
Some branches of the Church, especially those in the mother coun-
try, report less than others, consequently the results are modified by
the amount of information contained in the original sources.
I have introduced the historical sketch of the Board of Foreign Mis-
sions, as a sample of "what I propose doing for other departments
of power and influence which the Church has created. I would also
call attention to the historical sketch of the University of Queen's
College, Kingston, Canada ; the statistical history of the Presbyte-
rian Church in the United States from 1828-1859; and the historical
sketch of the Church of Scotland, for which I am indebted to my
friend, Ilev. Dr. Cook of St. Andrews, Scotland. As these are some-
what out of the exact line of a work like this, I deem the following
reference necessary. The difficulty of obtaining the requisite docu-
ments to prepare these sketches confirms me in favour of their appear-
ance, and the demand of this age is to be fully acquainted with all mat-
ters concerning any organization with which we are identified, or
have them arranged in some convenient and accessible form where all
the operations of previous years are revealed, and whence new efforts
can be made.
The histories of those churches where the annual sessions were
held are replete with matters of interest and value ; and the views of
INTRODUCTION. 19
the buildings increases the attention of the reader. The portraits of
those honoured with the Moderatorship are introduced, being drawn
from original photographs taken expressly for the work. The biogra-
phies of those who have died give a fair transcript of their ministe-
rial career, and though from the nature of the case these sketches are
condensed, I have never sacrificed any fact for the sake of brevity.
The statistics of other religious organizations, the list of authors
for the year, &c., appear in their proper places.
With this conception of the plan, all that remained for me, was to
collect the material, arrange the details, and bring forth the work ;
this I have done.
If then, as we all believe, that the Presbyterian element in the
world is potential, it is but right and proper that we should know
where lies its peculiar strength, and what portions of the earth are
blessed with its influences.
It presents to the mind a noble army, led on by over ten thousand
ministers of the gospel, with more than thirty thousand elders, and its
swelling ranks rising in numbers above a million souls. Stepping
forth from that grand army, I present to the Church this Exposition
of her Annual Labours, so that before each member, whether in the quiet
retirement of the library, or within the hallowed precincts of domestic
life, each division of the Presbyterian family passes in review, revealing
what has been done in their highest judicatories, what elements of
greatness have been manifested by its Boards and Committees in giv-
ing vitality and energy to the important trusts committed to their care.
Following closely come up the Presbyterial reports, showing how in
their extended and wide spread influence they have fulfilled their
duties to the Master. And then appears that mournful procession
of those who have died, but as the evidence of each good man's life
appears, hope smiles serenely upon the record.
I send forth this volume with a trusting but an anxious heart, pro-
mising to carefully consider the criticisms it may call forth, and endea-
vour by thoughtful observation to increase its value from year to year.
And I ask for that consideration from the reader which would be de-
sired were the cases reversed, as well as for that sympathy and co-
operation upon which the ultimate success of the enterprize must
depend.

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 31
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, (O.S.)
The Seventy-first Session of the General Assembly, (0. S.)
OF THE Presbyterian Church in the United States of' Ame-
rica, met according to appointment, in the Third Presbyterian Chm-ch,
Indianapolis, Indiana, on Thursday, May 19, 1859. W. A. Scott, D.D.,
of San Francisco, California, the Moderator of the last General As-
sembly, being absent, John Leyburn, d.d., Stated Clerk, annomiced
the fact, and called attention to the action of a former Assembly (1843),
and read from the Digest the precedent then established in a similar
case, viz., the appointment, by the assembled Commissioners, of a
minister to preach the opening sermon and preside till a Moderator be
chosen. Whereupon, A. T. McGill, D.D., moved that the Rev. Dr. Rice,
of Chicago, be appointed to preach the sermon, and preside until a
Moderator be chosen. The motion being put by the Stated Clerk,
■was unanimously adopted, and the following is a brief outline of the
2 Cor. V. 7. For we walk by faith, not by sight.
The term loalk is, in this epistle and elsewhere in the New Tes-
tament, used to express the idea of the conversation and conduct of
men. To walk as children of light was equivalent to maintain the
conversation and deportment of Christians — to walk according to this
•world, is to act in conformity with its maxims and example — to walk
by faith, is to live and act under the influence of Christian principles
and motives really believed. Now it is declared of Christians that they
"walk by faith."
1st. What is faith ?
2d. Faith as the controlling principle of the Christian life.
1. Faith, in its most general sense is reliance upon testimony. It
is the most extensive channel of our knowledge There are three
sources from which we derive our knowledge. Consciousness, our
senses, Sbud faith in the testimony of others. Tlie evidence of the first
two we cannot call into question — that of the third it is mmatural to
doubt. Faith, in a religious sense, is simply belief in the testimony of
God. It may relate to the past — as it is " by faith we know that the
worlds are made." It may relate to the present, or to the future:
and the thing that is the object of faith, is simply what God has borne
testimony to. We are not bound to believe that to which he has not
testified, or of which he has given us no proof.
Now, what is the exercise of faith? What does the mind do in be-
lieving ? There are tliree elements of a true exercise of faith. 1st.
32 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
1st. Intellectual conviction of the truth. 2d. Heart-appropriation of
and delight in it. 3d. Trust — personal reliance upon God.
1st. The first element of faith is to perceive the thing to be true.
How can the mind decide whether or not a statement is true ? By
weighing the evidence on one side and the other, and so come to a
conclusion. The first thing is to believe that God hath spoken. Is
the Bible his word ? " All Scripture is given by inspiration." This is
to be believed ; and intellectual investigation of the proof is requisite.
This settled, our next and only inquiry ought to be, what is the Bible ?
What does God the Lord say ? And in this search we need and
should seek Divine aid in every step. He who makes a creed should
pray all the time he is making it. When we have a creed, and aro
convinced of its truth, we have intellectual belief. Can it save the
soul ? No ! there is nothing either right or wrong in intellectual be-
lief. An intellectual creed governs nobody. All men are controlled
at last by the state of the heart, and through the afiections and pas-
sions. God makes his first appeal to the intellect, and through it to
the heart. Until you reach the heart of a man you cannot control
him for good ; if the devil has his heart, no matter who has his head.
The heart governs — hence God appeals to the heart. A mere intel-
lectual creed makes nobody better — makes nobody happier. All the
happiness of human nature is found in gratified affection ; or in the
hope of gratified affection. Hope adds to present blessedness by go-
ing forward to the land of promise, and blunging back the luscious
clusters of the grapes of Eschol.
2d. What is the second element of true faith ? Heart approval of
what God teaches us. Delight in God, and in what he makes known
to us. We are here led to get at hoio the man/ge?s. "What think
ye of Christ?" "Simon, son of Jonas, lov est ihovi me?" Acquies-
cence of the heart in the revelation which God has made of himself and
of his purposes, plans, working, and precepts, is the element of faith
which imparts life and vigour to it. This is the meaning of "faith
worketh by love," " If ye love me, keep my commandments." " Oh !
how I love thy law, it is my meditation all the day." This is the
grand distinction between the devil's faith and the Christian's. Both
liave intellectual faith — both believe these things to be true. The
devil hates and trembles at the truth — the Christian says it is right,
lovely, worthy of all acceptation.
3cl. Element of faith, expressed by the word trust. Angels be-
lieve, but do not trust in Christ as their own Saviour. The angel is
not lost, and does need, and does not personally trust in a redeeming
Saviour as his Redeemer. Intellectual conviction, love, trust : these
are the three elements of a Christian faith.
In conclusion, we remark, 1st. That the connection between faith
and works is inseparable. Faith is, in its very nature, a working thing.
It worketh love, penitence, purity, obedience.
2d. How important to have the undulterated truth ; for since faith
works, and is the source of works, if it be wrong the works that proceed
from it must also be wrong. *
At the close, Dr. Rice constituted the sessions with prayer.

IMegate from ilie Reformed Protestant Lnteh CJnirch, Eev. Geo. "W. Fisher.
The Stated Clerk aniiOHnced the organization of nine ncAV Presby-
teries since the last meeting of the Assembly, viz., Bloomington,
Hillsboro', Lcaats, Omaha, Potomac, Roanoke, Saline, Siam, and
Western Reserve. On motion, these Presbyteries and their commis-
sioners Avere enrolled.
The Assembly tlicn proceeded to the election of officers; and the
Rev. W. L. Breckinridge, d.d., was unanimously chosen Mode-
rator; and the Rev. Joseph R. Mann unanimously chosen Tempo-
rary Clerk.
gills iiniJ (Dljuturi^s.
The Committee on Bills and Overtures, Rev. Nathan L. Rice,
Chairman, reported the following: —
Overture, No. I. — From Uie Congreoation of Glapgow, askinjr to have their rela-
tion IrunsCorred from tlie Piesbytery of Allegheny City to the rrosbytcry of New
Lisbon. The request aa'us gi-anted.
Overture. No. 11.— From the Presbyteries of Washington and Si. Paul, on the
appointment of a Concert of Prayer for tlie conversion of the A\'orld.
This Overture is based upon a proposal from the missionary bre-
thren of Northern India, to observe the second IMonday of January,
1860, and the succeeding Aveek, as a season of special prayer all over
the globe, for the conversion of the world. This General Assembly
corciially sympathizes with the object contemplated, as it implies the
desire that*^ Christians everywhere may more directly regard the mis-
sionary and aggrcs.sive character of our faith, as it tends to call forth
their affections'' toAvards each other and towards a perishing world;
and especially as it recognizes the great truth of our dependence
upon Divine PoAver for the success of the gospel. We, therefore,
recommend to the churches under our care to observe the time thus

specified, in such manner as the various Presbyteries or Sessions may
direct.
OvKRTURE, No. III. — From Saiiind lla?kell, in relation to missions amongst the
Jews.
Tlic Committee recommend its reference to the Board of Foreign
Missions.
OvKKTi-RK, No. TV. — From tlio Rw. Thomas Iv. Davis, a.sking to be transferred
from the l^rtsbvtcry of Stoci<ton to tliat of Carlisle.
The Committee recommend that the request he granted.
OvKRTUKK, No. V. — From the Presliyter\' of Nassau, in rehition to tlic publication
of a vohune of Psalms and Hymns with appropriate tunes.
The Commitiee regard it as inexpedient to entertain this overture.
OvKRTURR, No. Vr. — From tlie Rev. Sayres Gazley, in relation to clianges in the
language of our Confession of Failli, regarding the doctrine of the Trinity and other
doclrincs.
The Committee recommend as an answer, that no change in the
language of the Confession, respecting the points suggested, is de-
sirable, or consistent with the Avord of God.
OvKRTURE, No. YII. — From tlie Presbytery of Genesee River, asking a change in
the form of government, chapter 10, section 4 ; in relation to tiie right of two churches
having one pastor to represent them, in the Presbytery and the Synod.
The Committee recommend that it is inexpedient at present to
attempt to make the change desired.
OvERTURK, No. VJII. — From A. W. Happer, Missionary to Canton, asking for the
re-conslruction of the Presbytery of Canton.
The Committee recommend that the Rev. Dr. Bell, M. D., of the
Presbytery of Charleston, and the Rev. Charles F. Preston, of the
Presbytery of Albany, both having received letters of dismission
from their Presbyteries; also, any missionary besides, going out
under the care of our Board, this ensuing summer, be a^ttached to
the Presbytery of Canton; and that they meet and organize in Fe-
bruary, 1860, or at such other time as may be found convenient.
Overture, No. IX. — From the Presbytery of Holston, in relation to the demis-
sion of the ministerial ofQce.
The Committee recommend, that, in view of the answers re-
turned to the overture already sent dovrn to the Presbyteries, it be
answered, that it is inexpedient to send this overture down.
On motion to adopt this report, it was voted as an amendment,
that the overture be referred to the next General Assembly, and
accordingly, it was so ordered.
Overture, No. X. — From tlic Presbyterian Historical Society, asking the Assem-
bly to recommend to the churches to take up a collection in their behalf.
The Committee recommend the following answer, viz : —
The Church of Jesns Christ, as a spiritual body, commissioned only to execute the
revealed will of God, can i^ustaiii no direct relation to any voluntary associations,
however praiseworthy in their aims, formed for the purpose of promoting the inter-
ests of art, literature, or secular morality. Wliere such societies involve no wrong
principles, it is a matter of Ciuistiau liberty to join the.m or not join them, encourage
them, or otherwise — and therefore the Church should leave them, where Christ has left
them, to the sound discretion of his peojjle.
36 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
OvKRTURK, No. XI. — On the subject of Church Charters. On motion, it was
referred to the Synods to take into consideration.
OvKRTtmE, No. XII. — From the Presbytery of Elizabethtown. in relation to the
rif^ht of ministers, not engaged in tlie ministerial work, to sit in Church courts.
The Committee offered tlic folio-wing answer, Avhich was adopted,
viz: —
According to the Constitution of our Church, ministers, as such, whether with or
without charge, are of equal powers and privileges. If the defection of any minister
from the duties implied in his ordination vows, is serious enough to disfranchise him,
it is sufRcicntlv serious to call for the orderly exercise of discipline. 'I'he remedy,
therefore, for the evil conii)lained of, lies with the Presbyteries, and cannot be reached
bv anv action of the Assenildy. 'I'ouching the alleged inequality between the elders and
the ministers, in our jadicat(jries, it need only be remarked that the number of vacar.t
chi'.rches. in a growing land like this, greatly exceeds the number of unemployed
ministers; and in the Church at large, the elders could at any time obtain a large
majority, if disposed so to do. Apprehending no danger in this direction, and rec<><r-
nizing no antagonism between the teaching and the ruling elders, in the Church, this
Assembly sees'^no reason for special action in the case ; leaving the Presbyteries in
our large cilies, where nn'nisters witiiout charge are prone to collect, to deal with them
in an orderly manner, as their wisdom may suggest.
OvERTUKK, No. Xlll.— From the Presbytery of Pugcfs Sound, requesting to be
recognized by the Assembly.
The Committee recommend that the request be granted, and that
the Presbytery be enrolled, and attached to the Synod of the Pacific.
OvERTURK, No. XIV. — From the Presbytery of Florida, asking such change of the
action of ^he last General Assembly, in relation to th.e boundaries of the Synods of
Alabama and Georgia, that the western boundary of Walton county, Florida, be the
line between the two Synods ; thus restoring the church of Euchee Valley to its for-
mer connection,
At the recommendation of the Committee, this request was granted.
Overture, No. XV. — From the Presbytery of Zanesville, on the sanctification of
the Sabbath.
The Committee reported the following paper, which was adopted :—
Th.e views of the Presbyterian Church, touching the importance, sanctity, and ob-
ligation of the Sabbath, are too fully expressed in our Confession, in Acts of the
Assembly, in our pulpits, and in the usual habits of our people, to require any state-
ment of them, as if these great things were to be at all thought matters of question
among us. Yet it is proper to repeat at times the testimony of the Church upon a
topic'of so great importance, so clearly inculcated in the word of God, and in regaid
to which so many errors are rife.
At this present time the enemies of the Lord's Day are legion ; and they veno-
mously attack its name, its necessity, its authority, and its sacredness. Infidelity of
every name, of course, impugns all that is excellent in piety ; and with the unerring
instinct of an intense hostility, ever selecting the most vital parts for the fiercest blow,
it strikes boldly at the Sabbath. The prevailing forms of fanaticism have no point
of agreement among themselves more plain than their disregard for the Sabbath.
The larger part of our foreign population, having been trained in communities where
the sacredness of the Lord's Day is utterly unknown, endeavour to bring in upon us
the wretched immoralities of European society ; the tendency of formal churches all
around us is to exalt the instituted days of man'.s wisdom to a sanctity from which
they degrade the ordir.ance of God ; while men of active business, hurrying forv.ard
their active schemes, ar.d lovers of pleasure of all kiiids join to trample upon the Sab-
bath, and to create a public sentiment unfavourable to its influence. Beyond doubt,
the deepest source of all this antagonism lies in the enmity of depraved hearts to that
blessed gospel, of which the Sabbath is an eminent representative.
In view of such things, it seems a duty to keep before the world more fully and
plainly, the claims of the Sabbath.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0. 37
Your Committee recommend the folloAvIng resolution, which was
adopted: —
Resolved. Tliat tlie attention of tlie scversil Presbyteries be directed to this subject,
and tiiat they be directe<^l to take such order upon it as their wisdom may ?n<(gest, to
tlie end tiiat in all our (aniilies and amnntr all our members a better observance of the
Lord's Day may be secured ; that in all our communities the authority and sacredness
of this ordinance may bo explaiiu'd and vindicated, and that the various forms of Sab-
bath-breaking may meet with wise and wliolesome I'ebuke and restraint.
Ovioia'uiiK, Xo. XVI. — From the Presbytery of Tnscaloosa, asking' v,'hether the
ordinance of Baptism ought to be administered to a person before reception into
our Church, who presents a certificate of g-ood and regular standing in the New
School Presbyterian Church, but who has received only Roman Catholic baptism.
The Committee answer, that the mere Rict that a person has been
a member of another clmrch has nothing to do with his original bap-
tism; and in regard to Romish baptism, the memorialists are referred
to the action of the Assembly in 1845.
Ovi'^RTURE. No. XVIT. — From White Water Presbytery, asking leave to receive
J. A. Devine, a foreign minister.
The Committee recommend that the matter be dismissed, because
the requisite papers have not been furnished.
OvERTUKK, No. XVIir. — From the Presbyteries of Lexington and ]\Iissouri, ask-
ing liiat the revision of the Book of Discipline be not sent down to the Presbyteries,
but recommitted, either to the same or another Committee.
The Committee submitted the overture without recommendation,
and, on motion, it was laid on the table.
OvRRTUHK, No. XIX. — From the Presbytery of Mississippi, respecting a Commen-
tary, was laid upon the t;\ble.
OvKKTUKE, No. XX. — From the Syntxl of Pittsburg, on the subject of Temperance.
The Assembly would refer these memorialists to the action taken
by this body in 1829 and 1848, as sufficiently expressing our princi-
ples on this subject. The increase of intemperance in various forms,
and the dangers that beset especially the young in our community,
call, in the opinion of this body, for vigorous efforts of resistance to
encroaching evils; we, therefore, call the attention of the Synods and
Presbyteries to the entire matter.
Overture, No. XXI. — From the Synod of Philadelphia, asking the Assembly to
overture the Presbyteries, in relation to a change of the Confession of Faith, chap. 24,
sec. 4, ill relation to incestuous marriages.
Also, an overtin-e from vVaron Williams, suggesting the change proper to be made
in the langiuige of the Confession.
The Committee recommend that the Assembly decide it is inexpe-
dient to send down the overture.
OvRRTURK, No. XXIL — Tn relation to the introduction of new specifications, and
new testimony, after judicial process has commenced, was takeu up, and, on motion,
it was indefinitely pn-;tponed.
OvKRTURK, No. XXiil. — Fi-om tiie Presbytery of Philadelphia, asking the (general
Assembly to cause to be prepared an additional chapter to the Directory of Worship,
prescribing the mode for constituting a church.
The Committee report that such an action is not necessary.
OvRRTURE. No. XXIV. — From the Synod of Chicago, asking a change of boun-
dary between that Synod and the Synod of Illinois.
The Committee recommend that, as the Synod of Illinois does not ap-
pear to have been consulted, the request cannot properly be granted.
38 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC TOR 1859-18G0,
Oyerturr, No. XXV. — From Angus Johnson, {ipldng wlietlier it is necessary for a
Presbytery to place testimony on its records in judicial cases.
The Committee recommend the motion of B. M. Smith, that it is
sufficient that testimony be duly authenticated, and carefully pre-
served on file, to make it part of the record.
Overture, Nn. XXVF. — A. memorial from ministers in Louisville, in relation to
cstiil)lisliinn- a (niid lor aged and infii'm ministers.
The Committee recommend, that ^vhile the Asscmhly highly com-
mends to the contributions of the churches the fund for the support
of superannuated ministers, tliey arc not prepared to favour any
scheme for a permanent and invested fund for that end.
OvEHTrRE. N'o. XXVII. — Motions of Jonatlian Edwards and J. C. Rankin, re-
specting notice to be given to persons elected, etc.
The Committee reported that, under present circumstances, no
action is required.
Overture. No. XXVIII. — From R. R. Reed, n\«pecting the Colonization Society,
reafTu-niing the confidence of the Asseml)ly in the Society, and commending its ob-
jects. Also, the report of the Committee thereon, was taken np, and, on motion, the
whole subject was laid ou the table.

42 THE PRESBYTERIAX HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 185D-18G0.
The Committee also report, that they have received and consi-
dered the Annual Reports of the Directors and Trustees of the Se-
minaries under the care of the Assembly, viz., the Seminary at
Princeton, N. J, ; the Western Seminary, at Allegheny, Pa. ; the
Union Seminary, at Hampden Sidney, Va. ; and the Seminary at
Danville, Ky.
The Assend)ly -will learn Avith devout gratitude the continued pros-
perity of these cherished institutions, and the tokens of the Divine
favour manifest in the increase of students, and in the deep tone of
piety prevailing in them all.
Whilst the lives of Professors, Directors, and Students, have gene-
rally been preserved, the Church is called to mourn over the decease
of the Rev. Dr.s. JancAvay and Ciirnahan in the Direction at Prince-
ton, and Mr. Samuel Laird in that of Danville — translated to heaven
in the ripeness of their age and Christian experience, but v.liose
names Avill remain in the Church below as "ointment poured forth."
The death of a young brother, a student at Allegheny, is recorded,
whom the Lord took up higher, just as .he had resolved to go far
hence to the Gentiles.
The Directors at Danville report the chair of Church Government
and Pastoral Theology still vacant, and they ask the Assembly to
enter into an election to fill said chair.
Urintct0it Scminini.
The Directors of the Seminary present to the Assembly their

operations as rapidly as the means placed at their disposal will allow, 'i'hey have
continued to employ a number of missionaries among our foreign population. One
among the French, one aiimng the Welsh, and tw<^nty-four among the Germans.
Many of our missionaries labouring in the Southern .States, devote a large portion
of their time to the coloured population. During the year, twenty-seven of our mis-
sionaries have been employed as itinerants. A large portion of the missionaries also
perform more or less of such service.
The Committee on the report, Rev. Edward P, Humphrey, d.d.,
Chairman, offered the following resolutions, which Avere adopted: —
I. Resolved, That the General Assembly gratefully recognizes Die blessings of the
Head of the Church upon its Domestic Missions, and upon the labours of the Board
unto which the care of those ]\[issions has been entrusted.
II. Resolved, 'I'liat the Assemidy finds, in the history of the Board, every reason to
cherish the settled conviction of the Church, respecting the ordinance of alms-giving,
and its proper admission by the officebearers ; and it exhorts all the congregations
under its care to maintain this ordinance as a part of religions worship.
II r. Resolved, That the Board is instructed to establish, in the city of New Orleans
an Advisory Committee, with a District Secretarj', whose duty it shall be to set for-
ward the work of Mi.ssions in the South-Wc'^t — the details to be arranged by confer-
ence between the Board and the said Committee.
IV. Resolved. That the Board is also empowered to make a similar arrangement
at the North-West, if on consultation with tlie brethren on the judicatories in that
region, such a measure shall api)ear to be advisable.
V. Resolved. That the attention of the Board is particularly called to the Pacific
coa«t, as a fiuld of .Missions.
VI. R.esolved, That a committee of seven members shall be appointed by this As-
sembly, with instructions to inquire, and confer with tlie Board, and to report to the
ne.\t Assembly, what changes in the organization and methods of the Board are ne-
cessary, in order to its greater efficiency and wider usefulness.

The number of new candidates is ihirtij-eight more than the number received last
year. The total number of neio candidates is one hundred and Jortii-ojie, which is
the largest number received in any one year since the division of the Church.
Resignation of De. Wood. — Dr. Wood resigned the oflBce of Associate Secretary,
the resignation to take effect on June 19, 1859, he having accepted the Presidency of
Hanover College, The Board do not intend to fill this vacancy.
Hints on the Choice of a Profession. — At a time when so many young men
are brought to the knowledge of Christ, and the world is so active with influences to
claim their services, the Board have ventured to present some considerations to the
youth of the Church, in regard to the principles which should guide the determination
of their course of life.
1. A leading principle in the choice of a profession, is to follow the one best suited
to a young man's gifts and endowments. 2. Another principle is, that that profession
is to be chosen which God sc-ems the most to approve. 3. Consider the claims of that
profession which offers the widest field of usefulness. 4. Another principle worthy
of consideration in the choice of a profession, is to notice the direction in which Pro-
vidence points. 5. A preference may be wisely given, other things being equal, to a
y)rofession that admits and nurtures personal improvement, and does not give a promi-
nence to sordid temptations. 6. A young man should keep in sight the rewards of
eternity.
Part TT. — Christian Education in Schools, Academies, and Colleges. —
The Board has been enabled to do much good in sustaining feeble institutions of learn-
ing. The number of parocJital scliools is not large — probably about one hundred ;
but they are a great blessing to the children attending them. A revival occurred in
one of the.se schools, in which eight of the older youth were hopefully converted.
The number of Presbijterial Academies h fiftij-eight ; and these higher institutions,
scattered all over the land, are accomplishing important results for Christian education.
A number of conversions have taken place during the year in our academies.
Colleges are great instrumentalities in advancing the kingdom of Christ. The
Church should not establish them too fast, but fast enough ; not ahead of Providence,
nor too far behind Providence ; but according to Providence. The report of the
Board contains various suggestions about the collegiate policy of our Church. The
7

discussion is on the following; points : 1, the number of colleges; 2, their location;
3, the riglit time for establisliino- them; 4, buildings; 5, endowment; 6, debt;
1, trustees and professors ; 8, standard of scholarship ; 9, discipline ; 10, religious in-
struction ; 11, the relation of each college to the character of the whole Church.
Hints on these topics may be of some use, perhaps, to thoughtful educators. Revi-
vals of religion occurred during the year in three ol' our colleges, viz : Davidson Col-
lege, N. C, Westminster College, Mo., and Centre College, Kij. To God be the praise
for these and other glorious results.

Rev. James A. Lyon, Chairman of the Committee, reported the
following resolutions : —
I. Resolved, 'I'hat the General Assembly learn with gratitude the success that has
attended the oppiations of the Board during the year, as evinced both by the increase
of candidates and fund.'^.
II. Resolved, That the best hope of continued and enlarged success in the Church's
operations is under God in prayer.
J II. Resolved, 'J'hat one of the means of success in the education of candidates for the
Gospel Miiiistry, consists in the faithful and interested supervision of the Presbyteries.
IV. Resolved, Tiiat the As.^embly are gratified to learn of the establishment of so
many Academies under the care of Presbyteries, in addition to many others under the
management of Presbylcrians, and further testify their continued interest in the " Ash-
mun Institute," under the care of the Presbytery of New Castle, and rejoice that the
first fruits of that Institute consi.st in the education of three missionaries for Africa.
V. Resolved. 'I'hat the As-^embly cherish with increased affection the system of col-
legiate education, which, from time immemorial, has engaged the energies and prayers
of Presbyterians.
VI. Resolved, 'I'hat this Assembly renew their recommendation to parents, in con-
secrating their children to God, and training them to become worthy members of the
Church ; to dedicate such as in their judgment possess the requisite qualificatious, to
the holy office of the mini.stry.
VII. Refiolved, That this Assembly appoint the last Thursday of February as a
day of special prayer for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon the rising gfnera-
tion, and especially the baptized youth of the Church, the officers and students of
colleges, academies, and all institutions of learning in our own, and in foreign land.s,
and earnestly recommend that it be faithfully observed throughout our Zion ; and
they furthermore recommend to the churches to unite alms with their prayers, and to
take up collections on that day for the Board.
Vlil. Resolved. That all the pastors and ministers of the Church be requested to
preach once, at discretion, during the year, on a call to the gospel ministry, setting
forth the claims of both the Church and the Pulpit, to hold up for consideration such
things as will recommend the gospel ministry as a profession, in order that parents
and youth may give its claims a respectful hearing.
IX. Resolved, That we earnestly urge Presbyteries, and '' Committees ad interim,"
to guard with a becoming caution, and a firm vigilance, the door to the holy office of
the ministry, so as not to admit to that sacred calling, men wanting in mental and
moral qualifications for its high and holy functions.

The number of colporteurs in commission during the year has been largely reduced,
owing to the pecuniary embarrassments of the country, which at the beginning, espe-
cially, of the year greatly affected the Colportage Fund. The number iu commission
last year was 263, the number this year 143. The Board is now again slowly and
carefully increasing their number.

The Committee on the report, Rev. Robert Hett Chapman, d.d.,
Chairman, offered the following resolutions : —
I. Resolved, That the Assembly desire to record with gratitude the favour extended
to this enterprise by the Great Head of the Church.
II. Resoloal, That the great object of tiie Boards organization and efifortg is the
widest possible circulation of the pure, undisguised, complete truths of God's blessed
word, in a literature through whose pages shall gleam the great and precious doc-
trines of our Confession and Catechisms — doctrines which have cheered the Church
in the past, and which constitute the hope of the v/orld in the future.
III. Resolved, That the Assembly would therefore earnestly urge on the churches
under their care, the importance of the Colportage department, exhorting them to
increased liberality in their contributions, that the operations of colportage may be
enlarged, and that the publications of the Board may be more widely difFu.sed.
IV. Resolved, That the General As,sembly with great pleasure notice, among other
publications of tlie Board, " The Letters of John Calvin.'^
V. Resolved, That the Assembly rejoices in the opportunity of expressing its appro-
bation of tlie efforts made by the Board to meet the wants of the youth of our land
as regards Sabbath-school Libraries. The Assembly recommend, that in the pur-
chase of libraries, either for gifts to feeble churches or for use at home, these books
of the Board should have the preference.
VI. Resolved, That the Assembly would especially commend '' The Home and
Foreign Record'^ to a more general patronage throughout the Church. They also
recommend " The Sabbath-school Visitor" as a most excellent publication to be cir-
culated through our Sabbath-schools, and among the children of our charge.

The Fourth Annual Report is presented to the Assembly : —
Durino: flie period covered by tlieir Fourth Annual Report tlio Committee laboured
under liabilities exceedinj^' tlieir means on hand more than $7000. The embarra.^s-
ment arising from this source was greatlj' increased by the unprecedented influx of appli-
cations, 'i'he number received from April 1, 1858, to April 1. 1859, was one hundred
and fortj'-one. One hundred and sixteen of these churches ask for aid, amounting
to .^51,257 25 ; the others would swell the aggregate amount of aid asked for during
the year to $6'2,304. Besides these new applications, there were on file and undis-
posed of, April 1, 1858, sixty applications, calling for not less than $25,000. The
Committee, therefore, had before them during the last year Uoo hundred and one up-
plication<f, asking for more than .$87,000.
The Committee adopted the following resolution, viz : —
" Resolved, That all applications for aid which have remained on file, or shall here-
after remain on file two years, without the applicants furnishing the additional infor-
mation asked for by the Church Extension Committee, shall be regarded as with-
drawn."
In accordance with this resolution, thirty-two applications, calling for aid to the
amount of $13,370, have been stricken from the tile. These applications, and any
others that may in like manner be erased, will be treated by the Committee as thougji
they had never been presented. They are not to be considered as declined, nor, if
renewed, will they be looked upon with more or less favour than those presented for the
first time. The action of the Committee simply renders it necessary for them to pro-
cure a new recommendation of Presbytery, and furnish the usual information in full,
before an appropriation can be made to them. It is but just to new applicants that
such a rule sliould be established. In making appropriations, the Committee must
have some regard to the applications on file, and other things being equal, give the
preference to those of longest standing. There ought, however, to be a limit to this,
and surely uo church ought to complain of losing this preference, if it fails within two

64 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0.
Receipts a\d Expexritures. — The appropriated balance in tlie Treasury of the
Church Extension Committee, April 1, 1858, was $8,991 70. 'J'he receipts "from all
sources, from April 1, 1858 to April 1, 1859. were $29,342 32. Of whicli S23,744 91
Avas from churciies, $2,600 from legacies, 82,514 92 from individuals, $138 50 from
.Sal)liatli-scliools, and .1?314 99 from interest and exchange. The available resources
of the year were, therefore, .^38,334 02.
Tin; expenditures of the year, as shown by the I'reasurer's statement, appended to
tills report, were $23,538 G8, leaving iu the 'I'reasury, April 1, 1859, an appropriated
balance of $14,795 34.
Cost or Church Edifices. — It has always been our conviction that the gifts of
the benevolent should not be used to build expensive churches, suited to pamper pride
anil gratify vanity. How far our practice has conformed to this conviclion, will ap-
pear from the following facts :— Leaving out of view twenty special appropriations,
for which we take no responsibility, the present Church Extension Committee, since
its organization, July 1855, has made appropriations to two hundred and fifty-five
dilferent churches. As nearly as can be ascertained, the average cost of these two
hundred and fit'ty-five churches is $2,097 each. Two hundred and eighteen of then)
rangwl in cost from .$500 to .$3000; twenty-eight from $3000 to $5000; and nine
from $5,U00 to $10,000. Xearly all the more expensive buildings were in important
points, where a large previous outlay by persons on the ground was saved to our Ziou
by a comparatively small sum from the Committee.
Of the eighty-three appropriations made during the year, ending April 1, 1859,
nine were special appropriations. Of the remaining seventy-fom- church editices,
sixty-five cost from .$500 to $3,000 ; eight from $3000 to $5,000 ; and one nearly
$6,000. 'J'he nine houses costing over $3,000, could, in many parts of the Church,
have been built for $3,000, or le.ss.
Church E.xtexsiox Destitutions and Waxts. — Your Committee have continually
felt it to be very important to obtain a full view of the destitutions and wants of the
Church, in their de[)artmcnt of labour. 'I'hey, during the year under review, addressed
a circular to all our churches with whose condition they were unacquainted. This
circular contained, among others, the following inquiries, viz : — Does your church own
a house of worship sufficient for its present wants, and free from debt? In building
your house of worship, (if you have one,) did you obtain aid outside of your own
conununity ? If you are without a suitable church edifice, can you secure one with-
out aid from the Church at large? The informatiou we have derived enables us to
report the condition of two thousand two hundred and sixty-seven churches. Of these
22(j7 churches, 553 have no house of worship ; 26 churches worship in Union houses ;
168 report their houses of worship as insufficient for their present wants ; 190 are in
debt; 777 had aid from abroad in building their church edifices; and 373 caunot
build without aid from the Church at large.
These simple but startling facts show, more clearly than any thing else, the magni-
tude of the Church Extension work, and we commend them to the earnest attention
of the Assembly and the Church.
The Committee on the report, Rev. Henry J. Van Dyke, Chair
man, offered these resolutions : —
I. Resolved, That the Assembly commend the Church Extension Committee for the
fidelity with whicli they have watched over the interests connnittcd to them, and note
with special satisfaction their efforts to elicit information in regard to the wants of the
Churcli in their department of labour.
II. Resolved, That we regret the tardiness of the churches to obey the repeated
requests of the General Assembly to take up collections for this important cause ; and
hereby solemnly enjoin it upon all the Presbyteries to take some action whereby our
directions may be more generally and faithfully executed.
III. Resolved, 'i'hat we desire and exhort all churches under our care, which are
still in debt for their house of worship, to make strenuous efforts for removing this
stumbling block, iu order that their liberality towards new and feeble churches be
not hindered

heathen, taking obstacles out of the way of his servants, preserving their lives, and
setting hi? approving seal to tlieir labours by accompanying them with the marked
and effectual influence of his Holy Spirit.
56 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0.
II. Resolved, That tlie Providence of God calls llie Church, in tones that cannot
but be heard, and ongiit to be heeded by all her ministers and members, to the exercise
of increased liberality in contributing of their substance to the service of Christ in
this particular department of that service; but especially that they should accom-
pany the exercis.' of this grace with that of prayer to the Lord of ilie harvest
that he would send forth labourers into the harvest, tiiat he would abundantly shed
upon llieni the Spirit of promise that they may be endued with power for their work,
and then pour out the same Spirit in copious effusion upon the nations, that their
hearts may be opened to receive llie truth in the love of it, that they may be .«avcd.
II f. Resolved, 'I'liat the (Jeneral Assembly highly approve of the efforts nuide by
the Hoard to enlist the interest of the children of tlie Church in the work of Foreign
Missions; and they would urge upon all Pastor.^ and Ruling Elders throughout the

to their obligation iu this matter as members of the Church, and upon parents, that
they endeavour to traiu their children to the habitual discharge of their obligations.

To this Board were intrusted the Foreign Missionary operations of
the Presbyterian Church, with such directions as may be given from
time to time by the Assembly. They were directed to hold their first
meeting in the First Presbyterian Church of Baltimore^ Md., on Tues-
day, October 3, 1837. This meeting was held according to appoint-
ment, at which time they elected their officers, &c., viz : —

It was resolved that the City of New York be the seat of operations.
They also received a transfer of the Presbyterian Western Foreign
Missionary Society from the Synods of Pittsburg and Philadelphia,
embracing the whole of its funds, missions, and papers, and it was
dissolved after an active existence of over five years.
The importance of this Society warrants the following notice : —
Previous to its organization the Prcsbj^terian Church contributed
men and money almost exclusively to the American Board of Com-
missioners for Foreign Missions. This Board being a voluntary
society, the arrangement caused much dissatisfaction, Avhich manifested
itself in various ways and on many occasions until November, 1831,
when the Synod of Pittsburgh organized the Western Foreign Mis-
sionary Societj^. This proved to be the nucleus around which ga-
thcrt?d in this Synod, and soon after in the old "Mother Synod" of
Philadelphia, and eventually throughout various portions of the Church
the sympathy and cooperation of those who were strongly (Old
School) Presbyterian in their sentiments and views concerning Boards,
preferring those under strictly ecclesiastical control, to the Indepen-
dency of the voluntarj^ society.
The Western Foreign Missionary Society issued an address tc the
ministers and elders, in which it Avas distinctly stated that it did not
originate in any desire to diminish the resources of the American
Board, or impair that measure of public confidence which it certainly
and justly enjoyed, but it aimed at uniting those portions of the Pres-
byterian Church which prefer a strictly Presbyterian arrangement in
a new, earnest, and persevering endeavour to fulfil the duty we owe
to the heathen of our own and foreign lands.
Their ofiicers were elected and plans matured with such prompt-
ness, that within a year they had under commission seven mission-
aries. The first missionaries appointed by the Society were Messrs.
William Reed and John C. Lowrie ; the next, Messrs. John B. Pin-
ney and Joseph W. Barr. Mr. Barr was called to his rest while on
the way to embark for his field of labour in Africa, and Mr. Pinney
pi'oceeded alone to that country in the fall of 1832. Messrs. Low-
rie and Reed and their wives embarked for India in the spring of
58 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
1833 ; they were followed by Messrs. J. Wilson and Newton and tlieir
wives, and afterwards by others- The mission to Africa was rein-
forced, but met with heavy bereavements. Missions were commenced
among some of the Indian tribes, and missionaries were appointed to
China. The names of the ministers and their wives, who were ap-
pointed by the Society to these various Missions, will be found pro-
perly included in the list given in the following pages. It was their
honour to have been the first missionaries to the heathen sent out by
a purely Presbyterian organization. The success of the Society was
so great that when its Missions were transferred to the Board, and
the Society itself dissolved, it was supporting in various parts of the
Mission field 8 stations, 16 missionaries and 22 assistant missionaries.
The receipts for the Western Foreign Missionary Society were as
follows from its organization imtil May, 1833, $6,432; 1834, |16,296;
1835,117,678; 1836, $19,123; 1837, $32,833.
The organization of the Board awakened new zeal in behalf of the
cause of Foreign Missions so that at the end of the first year, 1838,
they reported to the General Assembly, that they had sent out six-
teen missionaries and their assistants, and the collection amounted to
$48,606, including amount received from the Western Foreign Mis-
sionary Society of $3,107. The Mission stations were Northern In-
dia, China, American Indians, and Africa.
At the meeting of the Assembly, in 1839, the number of members
of the Board was increased to one hundred and twenty. During this
year other missionaries were sent out, and the amount collected during
the year was $59,363.
In the autumn of 1838 two auxiliary societies, viz., the Central,
under the care of the Synods of Virginia and North Carolina, and
the Southern, under the care of the Synods of South Carolina and
Georgia, dissolved their connection with the American Board of Com-
missioners for Foreign Missions, and by a formal vote resolved that
henceforward they would contribute to the Board of Foreign Missions
of the Presbyterian Church. Therefore, in presenting to the Gene-
ral Assembly, in 1839, their Second Annual Report, the Board, in
addition to the growing interest manifested by the Church, had this
interesting fact to place before the Assembly.
Periodicals. — The value of the press was immediately acknow-
ledged by the Board. " The Missionary Chronicle" of the Western
Foreign Missionary Society, a monthly publication, was enlarged to
32 pages, and in their second report the circulation had increased,
and 5000 copies were printed, besides various papers and tracts.
They established, in 1842, ^'- The Foreign Missionary ' in addition to
The Chroyiicle, and in 1843 they reported a circulation of 19,000
copies. By these and other similar means the Church has been kept
fully conversant with the operations of the Board, and its growth has
thus been healthful. The circulation of these papers has increased so
that in 1859 they reported the circulation of " The Foreign Mission-
ary' at 31,000 copies. The Chronicle was merged in " The Home and
Foreign Record" in 1850, which is now the oi'gan of all the Boards,
and has a circulation of 17,650 copies. Of the Twenty-first Annual
Report, 22,500 copies were published.

The career of the Board has been highly favoured, and though the
usual difficulties attending great operations have surrounded its offi-
cers and members, they have been sustained by a higher power, and by
the cordial co-operation of the Church. Death in its varied forms
has consigned many of its faithful missionaries to their place of rest,
and the crown of martyrdom is reposing upon the brows of some of
their number Avho have died by violence under the power of the hea-
then's rage. In the unfathomed caves of the Chinese sea repose the
shroudless remains of our brother Lowrie, and that company whose
forms were scattered to the winds on the fearful parade ground at
Cav/npore, were denied even a burial place, but in the memory and
upon the heart of all who love the Lord will the names of Freeman,
Campbell, Johnson, and McMullin be engraven as with the point
of a diamond. Blessed is the Church upon whose bosom has been
sprinkled the blood of the martyrs.
As year by year this Board comes up to the General Assembly
with the result of their annual operations, in view of the facts pre-
sented, may we not reasonably anticipate continued evidences of
Divine favour ?
The following Table will show the names of all those ministers and
their wives who have gone out from the Church to labour in the cause
of Foreign Missions since the organization of the Board by the Gene-
ral Assembly, including those connected with the Western Foreign
Missionai-y Society. The dates are arranged according to the reports
to the Assembly. The Assistant Missionaries in their various depart-
ments are numerically given at the end of the Table: —

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 63
giirratiljc at tin State 0f gdipwn.
p. J. Sparrow, d.d., Chairman of the Committee, reported the
Narrative of Religion, as follows: —
The iiK'ctiiig- of the Gonural Assembly may be regarded as the review of the armies
oF our spiritual Israel. It must be admitted that there is something interesting iu
such an assemblage of the representatives of so many Presbyteries and Churches,
coming together from all parts of this vast country, agreeing to attend to the one
great business assigned them by the Lord Jesus Christ — the proclamation of the glo-
rious gospel, and the adoption of means and measures for filling the world with the
knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus.
The As.sembly desire to render devout thanks to God, for the many tokens of his favour
granted to them during the past year. At the time when the Assembly held its ses-
sions last year, a number of churches were enjoying revivals of religion. Many other
churches have since been visited by the outpouring of God's gracious Spirit. Of the
one hundred and twenty-nine Presbyteries which have sent up Narratives to this As-
sembly sixty-three report revivals. A large proportion of the other Presbyteries, whilst
they have not been visited by those marked displays of the power of the Spirit, which
are usually denominated thus, have, nevertheless, been refreshed and strengthened.
The Narratives we have received, present a number of facts worthy of record.
1. One of these is, that all the churches which were revived last year, still retain
the spirit of those refreshing seasons. Perhaps there never has been a year in the his-
tory of our Zion, when the churches were so generally at peace, with so few roots of
bitterness springing up to trouble them.
2. Another fact in our history the last year is the general prevalence of a spirit of
prayer. This has been manifested in the multiplication of meetings for prayer, and
in the unusually large numbers that have attended such meetings, and the interest
with which they have attended them.
3. Another fact of interest is the great attention which has been paid by the Pres-
byteries and churches to the religious instruction of youth. With comparatively a
icw exceptions the Presbyteries report flourishing Sabbath-schools and Bible-classes ;
and many report catechetical instruction especially in the Catechisms of our Church.
This we regard as a most important movement in the right direction. In confirma-
tion of these views we remark that Presbyteries in which revivals have been enjoyed
during the past year, state that the fruits of those revivals have been gathered esjje-
cially from Sabbath-schools and Bible-classes.
4. We would especially notice the fact, that in addition to prayer the means em-
ployed during the revivals has been the plain and practical preaching of the doctrines
of the word of God. Several Presbyteries mention expository preaching as a means
which has been employed with evident good results. The Assembly take this opj)or-
tnnity of recommending this mode of preaching so well adapted to do honour to the
word of God, and which the fathers ol' the preceding age employed with such good
effect. 'I'he reports show an increasing attention to the spiritual interests of the
coloured people. From the Narratives of the Southein Presbyteries it appears that
the gospel is preached to them by nearly all their pastois.
5. 'J'lie evidence before us, afforded by the Narratives, clearly indicates that the
membei-s of th.e churches are growing in the grace of giving to the cause of the Lord
Jesus Christ. A considerable number of the Presbyteries report that, in obedience to
the direction of the General Assembly, they have inaugurated plans of systematic
contribution. We trust that the time is not far distant when every member of the
Church shall Irave the oppoi-tunity of contributing to ewvy good cause, and espe-
cially to all those schemes of benevolence in which our Church is engaged, and when
all shall feel it to be their duty and their privilege to contribute in proportion as the
Lord has l)lessed them.
6. 'I'here is one other important fiict to which we refer, and which we cannot better
designate than by denominating it the revival which has taken place among the ciders
of our Church. The Assembly rejoices that tiie elders very extensively are beginning
to wake up to the immense responsibilities that rest upon them as office-bearers in the
house of (lod, are beginning to seek for higher qualifications for the discharge of the
duties of their office, and are beginning to enter upon the practice of those duties
■with increasing zeal, faithfulness, and efiiciency.
64 THE PKESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
Whilst the reports made by the Presbyteries present these encouraging facts, they
contain others of a different character, which call for humiliation on the part of all
those members of the Church to whom they relate. Many of the Presbyteries deplore
a prevalent worldlincss in some of tlieir churches, and its practical consequence,
worldly conformity. That professor of religion, who lives in pursuit of the vanities
of a sinful world, is recreant to all the solemn vows which be made when he entered
the Church ; and without repentance, must be assigned to a far more fearful destiny
of woe than that which awaits those who have never professed to belong to the king-
dom of Christ.
Such is a brief Jiistory of the spiritual progress of our Church, during the past
year. Like that of individual Christian life, it is marked by lights and shades. We
liave, as a Church, sins over which to mourn, and cause for humiliation in the pre-
ser.ce of our Divine Master, and earnest su[)])Iication for pardon wherein we have
failed to accomplish all the good which wc might have accomplished. Still we have
cause to thank God, take courage, and press forward in our work with renewed zeal
and confiilenco. Our work is to give, as speedily as possible, to the perishing in our
own and in heathen lands, the unsearchable riches of the gospel. For the accomplish-
ment of this great work, we believe that our Church is duly equipped. With her
Boards of Education, Domestic and Foreign i\lissions. Publication, and Cliurch E.\-
tension — with iier institutions of learning and Theological Seminaries — with her pious
and educated ministry — with her thousands of holyand praying men and women — and
with the silver and gold in the possession of her members, which they are bound
to hold in trust for her, to be used as her Lord has need, there is no department in
the great work of the world's conversion on which she may not immediately enter.
What we need is individual action, together with combined action. We need that all
our ministers, elders, churches, and church members should be fully awake to tlie
responsibility that rests upon them, and that they should perform with diligence and
activity the work which properly belongs to them in their several spheres and sta-
tions. Then, again, we need combination to carry out practically and fiilly the grand
truth that our church is a unit — one gi-eat army (if the Lard — -organized and equipped
to contend with one common enemy, and accomplish one great work.
What we need beyond all things else is believing prayer. We live at an era of
prayer — a time of special prayer, and of special and direct answers to prayer. Pres-
byterians into whose system of faith Divine influences enter so essentially, should, be-
yond all others, be distinguished for prayer. Let them only act consistently with their
avowed creed — let all our ministers, elders, churches, and members of the church, iudi-
vidually, and in their various organizations, wisely and faithfully perform the work
assigned them by the Saviour, and let believing prayer continually ascend from all
our studies, domestic altars, closets, and churches. Then, instead of a general, a uni-
versal revival will pervade the entire Church, far as she has extended her bounds in
home and foreign hinds. May the Lord breathe such a spirit into the hearts of all
our ministers, and through all the churches I

DEMTSSIOX OF 1TIE MINISTKY.
Rev. N. L. Rice, d.d., from the Committee of Bills and Overtures,
reported on the returns from the Presbyteries upon the Overture re-
speGting the demission of the ministry, sent down by the last General
Assembly,
That ansv/ers had been received from 108 Presbyteries; of which 19 by regular,
and 5 by irregular answers, have replied in the affirmative ; and 74 by regular, and
10 by irregular answers, have replied in the negative. By the role in the book, there-
fore, the overture has been rejected.
This report was accepted and approved.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANNC FOR 1859-1860. 65
SYSTEMATIC BENEVOLENCE.
Rev. B. M. Smith, d.d., Chairman of the Committee, made the
following report :
By the rollcall of this Assemblj-, of 168 Preshytcric?, 101 liavc reported a coin-
pliance with tlie injunction of the Assembly of 1854, by adoplinj^ some practicable
method for securing the regular contributions of the people to the objects of Chris-
tian benevolence recognized by tlie Assembly. Of the remaining 67, many are newly
organized, with extensive and sparsely-settled territories, or on foreign missionary
gfround ; so that very few liave appeared entirely negligent in tliis important matter.
While feeling that there is great cause for congratulation in view of this state of
tilings, we do not believe it advisaiile for the Assembly to offer to the churches any
specific method of making contributions; but to secure a more efficient operation of
the Act of the Assembly, we respectfully propose the following resolutions :
Rcsohril, 1. That the Presbyteries be directed,
Fird. 'I'o require their Stated Clerks to enter on their Spring Docket the calling
of the roll of ministers and churches, to ascertain whether they have adopted and car-
ried out any plan for securing the contributions of the people to the objects of benevo-
lence recognized by the Assembly.
Second, 'I'o report in writing in the Assembly — 1. 'I'he number of contributions!-
directed to be made by the Presbytery. 2. The number made — arranged under the'
names of the several objects directed.
Resolced, 2. 'I'hat the Board of Publication is directed to prepare, for the use of
the Stated Clerks, blank forms suitable for facilitating these orders.
3. That the Boaid also prepare; for the use of the churches, blank forms for contri-
bution, not exceeding three varieties, making a selection for this purpose from such
existing methods as may be commended to the attention of the Publishing Committee.
4. 'I'hat the Board further prepare similar blank forms, not exceeding three varie-
ties, for the use of Sabbath-schools, availing themselves of such methods as may bC'
suggested by persons who have interested themselves in the preparation and use of
suitable plans for training our youth to habits of Christian benevolence.
TER-CENTENARY IN GREAT BRITAIN.
Rev. A. T. McGiLL, d.d., Chairman of the Committee on Foreigni
Correspondence, made the following report, which was adopted, viz :
Whereas. The Third Centenary of the Presbyterian Reformation in Great Britain
approaches in the year next ensuing, and arrangements have been made by the Gene-
ral Assembly of the Free Church of Scotland, the Synod of the United Presbyterian
Church of Scotland, and the Presbyterian Synod of England, to have a meeting ov
meetings next May, attended by all Evangelical Presbyterian bodies in the world,
through such repiesentation as they may deem it proper to send ; and whereas, breth-
ren of our own body, who are honoured and trusted among us, may find it convenient
to visit this interesting convocation. Therefore,
Resolrcd, That the Rev. I)rs. Gardiner Spring, James W. Alexander, Nicholas
Murray. Robert Davidson, C. Van Rensselaer, John Leyburn and B. M. Palmer,
ministers ; and James Lenox, Robert Carter, Thomas R. R. Cobb, C. Macalester,
and Stephen Alexander, ruling elders, be appointed to represent our branch of the
Church at that meeting, and any other of similar aims and principles in Europe,
which may meet within eighteen months from the present date.
On motion of B. M. Palmer, the report was amended, by adding
the name of Alexander T. McGill to the list of delegates.
It was, on various motions,
Resolved, 'I'hat the thanks of the Assembly be tendered to the citizens of Indian-
apolis, for their kindness and generous hospitality to the members of the Assembly
during its present sessions.
Resolved, 'I'hat this General Assembly be now dissolved ; and that another General
Assembly, chosen in like manner, be required to meet in Rochester, New York, in the
First Presbyterian Church, on the third 'I'hursday of May, 1860, at 11 o'clock, A. M;
Closed with singing, prayer, and the apostolic benediction.

a native of Ireland, was a half brother of the late Rev. Samuel B. Wylie, d.d., of
Philadelphia. His mother was eminently pious, and trained her children in the nur-
ture and admonition of the Lord. He became early interested in the subject of reli-
gion, and his thouc;hts were turned towards the ministry. He attended the school
tauglit by Rev. 'l\ 'Hod, in Washington, Pa., and contimied after the school was re-
moved to Canonabnrg, Pa., where, under the control of j\[r. David Johnston, he pur-
sued his classical studies successfully. On leaving college he was prompted by Rev.
James Welch to emigrate to Kentucky. Here he remained several years, studying
Theoloofy, and supporting himself by teaching, and was in due time licensed by
AVest Lexington Presbytery. In IStlO he retiniied to his former home, and itinerated
within the bounds of Ohio Presbytery; in 1801 he received a call to supply Upper

Presbytery of Redstone, and was shortly after installed pa^tiu- of Reholjoth and Round-
hill Churches, this connection remained until 1810, when he removed to Uniontown,
Pa. During his residence here, Mr. Wylie preached in the Court House, and in the
orchards and groves in the vicinity, and thus worked faithfully and zealously until,
when he left, there were the elements out of which there was shortly gathered a vigor-
ous and growing Church, with house of worship, and a slronir Presbvti'i'ian influence
pervading the whole community. In 1823 he removed to Wheeling, Va., and l)ecame
a member of \Vashington Presbytery. He laboured as stated supply for the Wheeling
and West Liberty Churches, until 1832, when he accepted a call from Newark

108 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0.
Jistoriciil Sfictclr at tin iHrb |lrtsl)|rtcrian dHfjurtlr, |ni).iinrapolis.
Thirty-nine years ago Indianapolis was selected as the capital of
Indiana, then in its infancy as a State. Only two years prior to this
selection, the first immigrant settled upon grounds which are now'
occupied by the city, then f\imous for game, and frequented by
numerous Indians. Long since, long Avhen we measure time by the
rate of Western progress, the red man and the forest disappeared ;
and now behold in their place a beautiful city, with a population of
more than twenty-seven thousand, a centre of trade, of social and re-
ligious influences, a city extending its iron arms in no less than eight
different directions, to grasp the traffic or the travel of as many dif-
ferent sections of the country ! Nor has the progress of Presbyte-
rianisra been less rapid or less remarkable ; and in order to under-
stand the present posture of affairs, and the position and relation of
the Third Church, it will be necessary to speak somewhat of the com-
mencement and progress, of the planting and culture of that germ,
which has now developed into five churches.
The first Presbyterian minister who preached in Indianapolis, was
Mr. Gaines of Ohio, in August 1821. In May 1822, Rev. D. C.
Proctor, of the Connecticut Missionai'y Society, spent a short time
preaching here ; and, upon the invitation of the people, returned in
October, devoting three-fourths of his time to Indianapolis, at an
annual salary of four hundred dollars. The First Presbyterian Church
was organized July 5, 1823, and joined the Louisville Presbytery.
The number of members at the organization was fifteen, three male,
and twelve females, seven of whom were admitted on examination; the
place of worship had hitherto been a cabinet maker's shop, belonging
to Caleb Scudder, (one of the fathers of Presbyterianism in Indianapo-
lis ; and he as well as some others are still with us to rejoice in the pro-
gress of the Church they love so well,) in summer time, and a private
dwelling in the winter ; but now a Church building, costing some twelve
hundred dollars, and quite large for those days, fifty-four feet by thirty-
four, was completed. Mr. Proctor resigned at the expiration of a year.
In July 1824, Rev. George Bush, by invitation, visited the Church,
and in March 1825 — except an absence of a few months in the services
of the Home Missionary Society, laying the necessities and the claims
of the West before Eastern churches — yiv. Bush ministered unto the
people without interruption until June 1828 : when the pastoral relation
was dissolved in consequence of his holding and habitually expressing
sentiments directly at variance with the Form of Government of the
Presbyterian Church. The Church was but feeble, and this was a
sore trial ; but she preserved her integrity, and remained firm in her
adherence to Presbyterianism. For the fidelity with which the Church
adhered to its views of Church Government, the credit is especially
due to the late Isaac Coe, M. D.
The next pastor was the Rev. James R. Moreland. Mr. M., had
been a boatman upon the Ohio river, and having had but few and
meagre educational opportunities, his preaching was unpolished,

but full of warmth and energy, and often productive of deep and
lasting impressions ; the first year of his ministry the membership "was
doubled. After labouring about three years in the pastorate, he died.
The Rev. James W. McKennan was installed pastor, June 1835,
and laboured until 1839.
In December 1838, fifteen members withdrew for the purpose of
organizing a new Church, known as the Second Presbyterian Church.
In 1840 the Rev. P. D. Gurley became the pastor, and continued
to minister to the people nntil he removed to Dayton in 1849.
His successor was the Rev. John A. McClung, whose installation
occurred in December 1851. In 1855 Mr. McClung Avas compelled
by ill health to resign his charge. The Church was without a pastor
until May 1857, when the Rev. Thomas M. Cunningham, the present
pastor, was installed.
The First Church has greatly prospered. So young, and yet she
has nourished and brought up children that have gone forth from her
bosom to break the bread of life to others.
The Third Church colonized from the First, and was organized in
September 1851 ; the colony numbered twenty-one, only ten males.
The elders were Caleb Scuddcr, James Blake, and H. C. Newcomb.
In October, the Rev. David Stevenson was called to the charge of the
Church, and has ever since laboured in this growing field, zealously
and faithfully, and his labours have been greatly blessed. In less
than eight years the twenty-one have become two hundred and fifty-
four ; and those who held their prayer meetings in a private house,
and had their preaching in a public hall, are now permitted to praise
God in their own Sanctuary. And this beautiful temple wherein they
may worship the God of their fathers, erected at an expense of some
twenty-eight thousand dollars, has been paid for almost entirely by
themselves, only some fifteen hundred dollars having been contributed
by persons not connected with the Church or congregation ; in fact,
the enterprise has been self- sustaining from its very inception. And
while thus bearing a heavy burden, it has been liberal in its contribu-
tions to the various Boards of the Church, and in other beneficent
works. The Church buildins is comfortable and commodious.
The eldership consists of James Blake, Caleb Scudder, John W. Ham-
ilton, S. T. Bowen, William Stewart, and II. C. Nevfcomb. The
deacons are William Blake, James Wilson, and J. D. Carmichael.
The Sunday-school connected with the Church is under the charge
of Mr. James Blake. Commencing in October 1851 with nine teach-
ers, and twenty-five scholars, it now numbers upwards of thirty teach-
ers, and nearly three hundred scholars. The first Sunday-school in
Indianapolis — and this was a union school, enlisting all the churches
in its behalf — was organized April 6, 1823, in Mr. Scudder's shop,
and it numbered at the expiration of a year one hundred scholars.
When we contemplate the success that has croAvned the efforts in
behalf of Presbyterianism in Indianapolis, and especiall}^ when Ave look
at the progress the Third Church has made in all the elements of
spiritual groAvth, we may well exclaim, " Truly the Lord hath done
great things for us, whereof we are glad."

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0 111
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH, (N. S.)
The Sixty-Fifth Session of the General Assembly of the
Presbyterian Church, assembled accordinp; to appointment, in the
Central Presbyterian Church, Wihnington, Dehiware, Thursday, May
19th, 1859, at 11 o'clock, A. M., and was opened with a discourse by
Rev. M. L. P. Thompson, d.d., the retiring Moderator, of which the
following is a brief outline.
Bhttlj at t\t gclj. Jr. f Iram^Sffu's §ma\nst,
" This is a true saying — If a man desire the office of a Bishop, he desireth a good
work." — 1 Tim. iii. 1.
The topics to which I would call the attention of my brethren from
this text, are the bishop s office, and the bishop s good work.
I. The Bishop s Office. Who, in the sense of the Kew Testament,
are bishops ? What is the office spoken of in the text ? and to whom
in the church of God, according to the word of God, does that office
appertain ?
I desire to address, not exclusively ministers — so called ; nor ex-
clusively elders — so called ; but ministers and elders — all ministers ac-
cording to the Neiv Testament, and all elders according to the JSfeiu
Testament — all bishops.
I must show then, that according to the New Testament the bishop's
office is held in common, both by those whom tve call ministers, and by
those lohom we call elders. I must develope, in its largest extension,
as it lies in the inspired record, the true doctrine of parity in the
Presbyterate.
Now, an elder is not a layman any more than I am a layman, and
I desire to assert here the true and proper dignity, according to the
divine meaning an intent of the elder's calling, that he is a minister,
holding an office between which and mine, whatever distinction usage
may have established, or may have groAvn up by custom to be law in
the church, the word of God makes none, and none was in the begin-
ning.
Undoubtedly, in our book, this distinction is recognized ; but I do
not think that our book recognizes it as based upon a generic, or or-
ganic difference. The book defines what the minister's and elder's
offices are, as settled by common law according to apostolic prece-
dents, in the Presbyterian Church. If it goes farther in its intent,
and affirms an original organic difference, I have not so understood it,
and could not now subscribe to its teaching.
I do not want, as of original divine appointment for perpetuity in
the church, the three distinct offices of Bishop, Elder, and Deacon. — •
The arrangement has an order of prelacy about it ; and besides, can-
112 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
not be justified by any fair argument from the Bible. For in the
place from which the text is taken, where Paul instructs Timothy as
to the ordering of the churches, that he might know " how to conduct
himself in the house of God," I find no allusion to three kinds of
official men. There are the hisltops and the deacons and no more.
Bhliop and clde)\ as every one knows, in the New Testament, re-
ferring to office-bearers in the Christian church, are convertible terms :
all bishops are elders, and all elders are bishops.
From Miletus, as Paul journeyed to Jerusalem, he sent to Ephesus,
and called the ciders of the church, to whom, in the address which ho
delivered to them after their timely arrival, he said among other
things, " Take heed unto yourselves, and to all the flock over Avhich
the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God,
which he hath purchased with his blood."
The elders, then, of the church of Ephesus, were its hisliops. They
were all bishops, having the Episcopacy or oversight of the flock.
They were all 'pastors^ whose business it was to feed the church of
God ; for we do not find the apostle taking notice of any difi'erence or
distinction among them ; Ave do not find him recognizing any two kinds
of official men, as bishops, or ministers, or pastors, on the one hand,
and elders or lay delegates and representatives of the people on the
other, lie sends for the elders of the church, and when they, the
elders, are come, he addresses them all as bishops, ministers, pastors,
burdened with a common responsibility, having a common office, and
a common work. He does not send for the deacons, because deacons
have no spiritual charge, it is strictly a lay office for secular and
common uses. He sends for the spiritual fathers, the office-beai-ers
in the church proper, the elders, and when they are come, his address
to them as a body is descrij^tive of their common office and their com-
mon work.
II. I invite your attention, secondly, to the bishop's good ivorh.
And for the ivork itself, — where shall we find a description of it, in
brief, better suited to our purpose, than in Paul's address to the Ephe-
sian elders, in which he sets forth in an inimitably beautiful and im-
pressive manner, the work for all time of all bishops ?
The ti'ork is to preach the Kingdom of Gfod, it is universal as to its
objects. It is to preach the kingdom of God to everi/ num..
It is a work to be done not alone with them that resort to the
preachers, but by the preachers resorting to them, seeking them out,
going after them where they are, "from house to house." We must
carry the Gospel to them that Avill not come for it. I know of no
scripture tliat will justify Christ's ministers in setting themselves up
for gentlemen, and establishing depots of the word of life, from
whence alone they will dispense it to applicants.
The end of the bishop's work in every case of Greek or Jew is no-
thing less than a ti'ue conversion — " repentance toward God and faith
toward our Lord Jesus Christ." It is to bring every man to the
saving obedience of the truth.
And, finally, we are furnished, in the apostle's address to the Ephe-
eian elders, with a description of the loving patience, and tender per-
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0. 113
suasive earnestuess with which this work is to be performed, showing
men, and teaching them, or as it is elsewhere expressed, " in meek-
ness instructing them that oppose themselves, if God, peradventure,
will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth."

114 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The Assembly elected Robert W. Patterson, d.d., of Chicago,
111., Moderator ; Henry Kendall, d.d., was appointed Permanent
Clerk {j^ro tern.) ; Rev. Chas. P. Bush, and Rev. Henry E. Niles,
were chosen Temporary Clerks.
The Committee, Gkorge A. Lyon, d.d., Chairman, reported tlie following :
Overture No. I. — A memorial from the Presbj'tery of Dakotah, to send missiona-
ries to the Southern States to establish churches, and to instruct the missionaries not
to receive slaveholders to the Church until the sin of slaveholdiug shall have been re-
nounced.
This was referred to the Committee on Church E.xtension.
Overture No. 11. — A memorial of Rev. Benjamin IMills of the Synod of Cincinnati,
and others of the Synod of Kentucky, expressive of their attachment to us, and their
desire to return to our connection, if, with their views on the subject of slavery, the
way may be open to receive them. 'J"he Committee recommend that the.'-e ministers
and churches, and others similarly situated, be referred to the Presbytery of Cincin-
nati, or any other border Presbytery, and that such Presbytery be authorized so to
extend their jurisdiction, as to receive any such ministers and churches situated near
them, whose principles and practices harmonize with the position of the Church, ex-
pressed and published by the former Assemblies.
Overture N^o. III. — From the Presbytery of Philadelphia 4th, on Lay Agency,
which was referred to a Special Committee, D. W. Poor, d.d., Chairman, which re-
ported that no action be taken, excepting to declare it as our unanimous judgment,
that the liberty conceded by our polity for the free exercise of all spiritual gifts in an
orderly manner, renders the organization of any lay agencies superfluous, and to urge
on pastors and sessions that they exert themselves for the development, employment,
and direction of all the lay talent existing in the churches, unto the upbuilding of
the Redeemer's kingdom, and the glory of his name.
Overture No. IV. — Inquiring as to the right of minors to vote in the election of
ciders and deacons.
The Committee recommend that it is not in accordance with the principles and
usages of the Presbyterian Church to distinguish between members of the Cliurch as
to their ages when voting for officers in the Church. Adopted.
Overture No. V. — A memorial from the Presbytery of Kansas on slavery.
The Committee recommend no further action on the subject. Adopted.
Overture No. YI. — A petition signed by C. Van Rensselaer, B. J. Wallace, and
George II. Stuart, asking a recommendation of a collection for the Presbyterian His-
torical Society.
The Committee concur in the recommendation. Adopted.
luMtial ias^s.
The Committee, J. F. Stearns, d.d., Chairman, reported.
•Tddicial Case, No. I. — A paper from the Presbytery of Milwaukee, touching a
case of a minister supposed to have been irregularly received, and asking for new rule
in the case.
The Committee recommend that no new rule appears necessary. Adopted.
Judicial Case, No. 11. — From the Presbytery of Keokuk, asking if they have
jurisdiction over the case of J. H. Smith, deposed by the Presbytery of Des Moines.
The Committee recommend a negative answer. Adopted.

nection with us.
Recommend that such churches join contiguous Presbyteries.
Paper No. III. — Wiiat shall be done with Church members who ask to be re-
leased from their Church obligations, without any charge being made against their
moral character ?
The Assembly decided that the Book of Discipline provides for all cases, and that
no new order be taken in this case.
Paper No. IV. — A petition from the Presbyterian Church, Bainbridge, Ind., ask-
ing a transfer from the Presbytery of Crawfordsville, to the Presbytery of Green
Castle.
The Committee recommend that this be postponed for one year.

and West Tennessee having abjured the jurisdiction of this Assembly, that these
Synods be stricken from the roll.

of Discipline.
The Committee recommend that action on this subject be indefinitely postponed.

The reports on the Records of the Synods of Albany, Cincinnati, Genessee, Illi-
Eois, Iowa, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Onondaga, Pennsylvania, Peo-
ria, Utica, Western Reserve, West Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, were adopted without
exception. The Synod of Geneva was referred. The Records of tlie Synod of Alta
California, Indiana, Michigan, and Susquehanna, were not sent up for review.
116 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The FouHh Annual report was submitted to the Assembly.
During the year the number of missionaries untlor commission was twent}--one.
Owing to the Committee being largely in debt at tlie beginning of the year, it was
resolved not to appoint new men until the debt was paid — this has been aceoniplished,
the receipts being largely in advance of any previous year, amounting to $10,358 57.
The Committee had in commission Rev. Samuel Day, of the South Cluu'ch, Mil-
waukee, who soon after his appointment joined the Coxgreoavioxal Association
of Wisconsin, taking his Church with him. The Committee refused to pay to Mr.
Day any of the salary voted to him, and they also requested the Church to repay the
amount of one thousand dollars granted them by the Committee ; tliey have received
no reply from Mr. Day or the Church. Rev. D. T. Packard, and Sidney IT. Bar-
teau, who have beeu labouring under a commission, have left for the Congregational
Ciiurch.
The Committee have been oVjliged to confine their operations on account of their
indebtedness; but in view of the vast field, they are suie they speak the voice of a
large jiart, it not the whole of the Church, in asking the Assembly to take so emphatic
a position on this subject, that no one can doubt of our obligation to our own breth-
ren who cry to us in distress from the West and Nortli-West.
The Committee, P. IT. Fowler, d.d., Chairman, reported :
The Annual Report of the Church Extension Committee, impresses us more deeply
than ever with the vast importance of the work in which they are engaged ; the de-
nomination of Christians represented by this Assembly has hitherto princii)ully em-
ployed the American Home Missionary Society, as its agency for prosecuting Domes-
tic Missions ; that society was formed in the bounds, and by the meml)ers of our
Church. Its origin, and the capital it has accumulated, make it impossible as a mat-
ter of feeling, of interest, and justice, that we should abandon it to those whom we
have received as partners in it ; we can leave it only on the dissolution of the firm,
and the setting up of its members iu new establishments. Several overtures were in
the hands of the Committee, most of them referring to the course of the American
Home Missionary Society ; and the Committee recommend that a commission of this
General Assembly be now raised, J. F. Stearns, Chairman, to ascertain by a thorough
investigation of the facts in the case, and to procure such other information as may
be in their power, relating to the history of our connection with the work of Home
Missions, and our present relation to it, and to learn the mode and principles of ad-
ministration of the American Home Missionary Society, over the entire field of its
operations ; and to submit the whole, well authenticated, to the next General Assem-
bly.

The Seventh Annual Report is presented to the Asssembly.
The publications of the year are largely in advance of any in the past, being fifty-
one tracts and volumes. Of the Church Psalmist, 7,215 copies have been issued ; the
Supplement and the Tune Book are in course of preparation, and will be published
soon. The Digest of the Acts of the Assembly is ready, and will be issued as soon
as the funds will permit.
The donations are a little more than last year, but with this difierence, instead of
being raised in the third and fourth Presbyteries of Philadelphia, they have come
from abroad ; last year the amount contributed by churches out of Philadelphia, was
$022 11, whilst this year it was S6,795 06.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC POR 1859-1860. 117
The report of the Treasurer is as follows : Balance in hand from last year, $1,115-
90. Donation from churches, $8,588 27. Bequest, $350. Sales at Store, $6,984-
11. Total, $17,038 28. Expenditures, $16,298 26. Balance. $740 02.
The Committee, Rev. A. T. Norton, Chairman, report : Tiiat the trust committed
to the Publication Committee is of great importance, and considerino- the small
means at their command, they have done well and nobly. 'I'lie Church which in our
day neglects to employ the Press, is unfaithful to her trust ; though the receipts during
the past year have been encouraging, they bear no suitable proportion to the ability of
the denomination, or the magnitude of the cause, that in the great work of Ciiiistian
education, and spiritual training to which we are called, we should give the preference
to our own pulpit, and our own press ; we therefore recommend that it be enjoined
upon all our church&s to take up a collection for the Publication cause, in October,
and that churches making their annual collections be permitted to order for their own
use any publications of the Committee, to the amount of one half their respective col-
lections, and that we would specially urge upon pastors and Sabbath-school teachers
the duty and privilege of placing our own publications in our families, and Sabbath-
school libraries.

The Fiflh Annual report is presented to the Assembly.
The whole number of grants during the past year is thirty-seven, and the amount
$13,950, of these, eight were donations, the average being .$180, and twenty-nine
■were Zoa?i.?, the average being $431. The average amount of donations has decreased
from year to year, w'hilst the loans have increased, as follows :
The average donations in 1857,
$191.
The average of loans in 1857,
$396.

l\Inch permanent good has been done through this fund, and since its organization
it has made twenty-eight donations, the aggregate amount being $5,250. and ninety-
one loans, the aggregate amount being $37,868. makinG: a total of $43,118, and by
this amoinit of aid, over $300,000 dollars worth of church property have been secured,
thus enabling one hundred and nineteen congrejr.ations to worship God in their house
free fi-om debt, for one of the rules of the Fund is, that churches aided by it shall be
free from all incumbrance.
The Committee, P. II. Fowler, d.d., Chairman, report : That this fund has been
managed with faithfulness and diligence, that in connection with the report they have
had several papers to examine, two from the Presl)ytery of Harmony, for itself and
Synod of Kentucky, and one signed A. II. H. Boyd, in behalf of a body styled the
United Synod of the Presbyterian Church, asking for the payment to them of the
.sums allotted to their Synods in the first apportionment of the Church Erection
Fund 'I'he Committee would reply definitely, that the charier expressly declares
that this Fund is to aid feeble congregations in connection with the General Assembly,
as the only bodies to wliich grants can be nuule.
Also from the Presbyteries of Winona, Iowa city, and Knox, asking that the por-
tions of the fund allotted to the different Synods, may be paid over to the Synodical
Committees for distribution at their discretion, and the Presbytery of Kansas prays
that !r?3,000 may 1)6 paid over to it, to be distributed at its discretion, <fcc., &c. ; to
all these we would reply, that the charter constitutes the Trustees the sole custodians
and managers of the Church ICrection Fund.

The Committee, Hexry Kendall, d.d., Cliairman, report : That there is evidence
of increased interest on the subject of education in our Church ; but though our can-
didates increase as well as our contributions, they yet full far short of the demands and
necessities of the Church. Large numbers of young men have been converted, and a
deeper interest is felt in the welfare of the world. In addition to the report of the
Permanent Education Committee, your Committee have had a prolonged conference
with the representatives of the various local societies in our bounds, in order to secure
if possible an adjustment of their operations, with those of tlie Permanent Committee
of the Assembly ; and tliough the subject is still attended with difficulties, all parties
have been made more fraternal, harmonious, and hopeful.

The First Annual report is presented to the Assembly.
The Committee, John Jenkins, d.d.. Chairman, report: That the thanlcs of this
Assembly are due to the Permanent Committee on Foreign Missions, for the lucid
and deeply interesting narrative they have furnished in their Annual Report, besides
this report, your Committee have had various papers laid before tiiem. First, from
the Synod of Minnesota, asking tiiat a closer relation be secured between our For-
eign missionaries and the General Assembly. Second, from the Presbytery of New-
ark, in favour of forming Presbyteries in the foreign field. Third, from tlie 'J'hird
Presbytery of Philadi-lphia, stating that one of their members in the foreign field,
has been recommended by his Presbytery, to propose to his Presbyterian brethren of
the same mission, to form themselves into a Presbytery ; refused, because it was under-
stood, that it was the business of the American Board of Commissioners for Foreign
Missions, through their Presidential Committee, to arrange the missionaries and the
churches in the foreign field. 'J'liey are convinced that a proper missionary spirit
caiuiot be kept alive without our having a closer relation to our missionaries, and
bringing home to the chui-chcs that this is our own work. 'I'hat after having con-
tributed millions of nionej', we have not a solitary mission church — or but one, in the
whole foreign field. Fourth, from the Presbytery of New Castle, to secure the direct
control of our ministers labouring in foreign lands.
The Committee recommend that the time has now come, when, in order to a more
thorough development of the missionary spirit, the prayers of their memorialists, now
enumerated, demand action. They ask not for any cessation of the co-ope.rutive prin-
ciple in conducting the work, but simply for a closer connection with it, by means of
Presbyteries, whenever numbers and circumstances will allow of such a co\u-se. The
Assembly cannot overlook the fact, that after many years of connection with the
Foreign Missionary department of evangelical laboiu', we have at this time but one
Presbyteiiari Church of our coimection in the foreign field. Tlierefore. it is to be dis-
tinctly understood, both here and abroad, that the American Board of Commissioners
for Foreign Missions, interpose no obstacles in the way of the formation of foreign
Presbyteries. That a special (Jnmmittee, Rev. Albert Barnes, Chairman, attend the
next meeting of the Boaid in Philadelphia, for the purpose of conveying to the Board
the views of the Assembly. 'I'hat candidates for the missionary work going out from
our body, give their attention to those fields where Presbyteries are or may lie formed ;
and that the Synod of New York and New Jersey, be empowered to receive foreign
Presbyteries whenever constitutionally requested to do so by our foreign missionaries.

f^nrratibe at t^e BhU at gtlipwiu
The Committee, Rev. James Eels, Chairman, report : That they liave received re^
ports from but sixty-five Presbyteries, being' only two thirds of tlie Presbyteries now
in our communion. 'I'he prominent feature iu all of the reports is the great revival,
a history most cheering and hopeful.
The result of these revivals is shown in the elevated level of piety in our churches ;
there has been a more general attention to the religious training of the young. Th^re
has been a new disposition among the laymen of our churches to engage in active
laboui-s for the conversion of men ; there has been a permanent increase in prai/er ,•
there has been a better observance of the Sabbath; there have been larger numbers
of young men ready to begin a preparation for the ministry, and more interest in our
plan of ministerial (education. There have been most commendable efforts in Church
erection, and the removal of Church debts ; and there has been hearty support given
to general s\stems of benevolence. These facts should encourage us to hope, labour,
and pray ; but there are others which require attention, that there may be improve-
ment or reform.
It appears tliat our churches have a little more than 400 pastors, and a little more
than 600 stated supplies ; this in a Cluirch, the success of whose system must depend
largely on the permanence of its ministry, needs no comment: and our churches should
be earnestly advised to remedy what is so manifestly an evil.
The lai'ge number of " vacant churches," and of ministers " without charge," nearly
300 of eacii being reported, is a most lamentable and alarming fact. In quite a num-
ber of Presbyteries there is a manifested lack of interest respecting infant baptism,
and there is also an increase of intemperance in many regions.
These are the prominent items contained in the Presbyterial Reports, both as to
"what may encourage us, and engage our efforts to remove what works harm to our
Church. In view of all, however, p-ai'se should be our inscription on the Ebenezer
which we here erect. Our Church has never been in a more hopeful position, or pos-
sessed more elements of strength than at present. May God give us grace to enter
upon our mission afiesh, with the right spirit, and in the adoption of proper means
to secure the salvation of men.

FREE PRESBYTERIAN SYNOD.
The Committee, Rev. J. P. Stearns, d.d., Chairman, report : That they have read
and considered the document from this body, proposing an organic union, provided
slaveholding was made a term of membership, and they listened to the statements of
their delegate, Rev. A. B. Bradford, and having carefully considered the whole sub-
ject, they recommend that we coi'dially reciprocate the expression of fraternal kind-
ness of our brethren, but our position on the subject of slavery has been explicitly and
fully declared, and to these declarations we refer for a full understanding of our views,
and the ground on which as a body we stand. 'I'hat a Committee, Samuel C. Aiken,
D.D., Chairman, be appointed, to hold such further correspondence with the Synod as
may be deemed desirable, and report to the next Assembly.
M. L. P. Thomson, d.d., was appointed to represent this Assembly in the proposed

cert of prayer for colleges and other institutions of learning.

sedentary liabits whilst at college ; and though he pursued the occupation of a farmer
in connection with his pastoral duties, he never regained his lieaiih. He died at his

140 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The Central Presbyterian Church was organized bj the Presbytery
of Wilmington, on the 6th of December, 1855. The number enter-
ing into the original organization was 23. The application to Pres-
bytery was made by a number of the members of the Hanover
Street Church, Avho believed that more ample accommodations
were needed for those whose choice might be to worship in the Pres-
byterian Church, and that more might thus be done for the cause
of Christ in this city and the world. The movement was greatly en-
couraged by a resolution passed unanimously by the Hanover Street
Church, to the effect that — " We approve the separation proposed,
and bid those who are engaged in it God speed ; that although it will
take away from us much of our wealth, and the greater portion of the
youth and vigour of this Church, instead of deploring, we rejoice over
it ; because it will form so energetic a nucleus, not only to make the
enterprise strong in its outset, but to impart character to the acces-
sions that will be made to it."
The congregation thus organized, worshipped together for the first
time on Sabbath, December 23rd. Rev. George Duffield, Jr., pastor
of the Central Presbyterian Church, Northern Liberties, Phibidelphia,
preached on that occasion. On the first of January 1856, the Church
extended a unanimous call to Rev. George P. Wiswell of the Second
Presbyterian Church of Peekskill, N. Y., to be their pastor, which
call was at once accepted, and the newly elected pastor entered upon
his new field on the first of March, the congregation meanwhile being
supplied by pastors from Philadelphia and elsewhere ; and on the 8th
of May, Mr. Wiswell was installed pastor by the Presbytery of Wil-
mington, to which he had been duly transferred.
The Church celebrated the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper for the
fii'St time on the 16th of March, when the whole number of communi-
cants was 93. Since that time the growth of the Church has been
rapid, both in numbers and spiritual strength ; 161 have been added,
111 on profession of their faith, and 50 by certificate of dismission
from 25 diflferent churches in eight different States.
Revivals. — There have been three special seasons of revival. Tlie
first commenced in the autumn of 1856, and continued with more or
less power until the following spring. The second and third in the
winters of 1858 and 1859. All these have been seasons of marked
and peculiar interest in the Churcli, though perhaps, to an unusual
extent, through its entire history, there have been cases of conversion
under the preaching of the Avord, and in answer to faithful and pre-
vailing prayer.
The Church oAves very much of its prosperity under God to an ex-
cellent and efficient board of elders, who were chosen immediately
upon the organization. This board consists of Lewis P. Bush, M. D.,
who had officiated as a ruling elder in the Hanover Street Church,

and with him were chosen and duly ordained Charles Sterrart, Ed-
ward T. Taylor, and Joseph W. Day. Few churches are moi-e for-
tunate in the choice of their spiritual rulers and guides thnn this has
been ; men without reproach in the community, who prayerfully study
the welfare of Zion, and the glory of her exalted Head.
The Sabbath-school. — Early in the history of the Church, a Sab-
bath-school was organized, consisting of 51 scholars, under the intel-
ligent superintendence of Mr. Edward T. Taylor. This School has
increased, until now ncarh^ 800 scholars are enrolled on its list, with
about 40 teachers. There are two branch schools in other parts of
the city, numbering about 100 each.
A Young Men's Christian Association was formed early in the
spring of 1858, which now numbers about 60 young men, who have
under their special care the two branch Sabbath-schools, sustain in
connection with each of them a weekly prayer meeting, also a weekly
tract distribution, and a meeting on Sabbath afternoon at the county
almshouse. In addition to these, they conduct a prayer meeting on
Sabbath evening.
The weekly services of the Church are, a prayer meeting on Wed-
nesday evening, and a lecture on Friday evening.
Church Edifice. — The Church worshipped at first in an ancient and
venerable stone building, on the corner of 5th and Walnut streets,
erected originally for the Second Presbyterian Church, and hallowed
by many pleasant associations with the early history of Presbyterian-
ism in the city.
In January 1856, steps were taken for the erection of a suitable
edifice to accommodate the growing congregation. A boaid of trus-
tees was elected, consisting of Messrs. Edwin J. Horner, Chairman ;
George T. Clark, James Anderson, George W. Bush, John C. Price,
Leonard E. Wales, George Baird, George B. Kinkead, James Ste-
phens. And a building committee, consisting of Messrs. John B. Lati-
mer, Chairman; William Bush, Jourdan W. Maury, Henry S. Mc-
Combs, Lewis H. Coxe, Philip Quigloy, George F. Peterson.
Lots were purchased on King near Eighth Street, and the work of
building the house of the Lord vigorously entered upon. The corner
stone was laid June 18, 1856, on the 15th of the following February,
the congregation commenced worshipping in the lectui-e room, and on
the 10th of November 1857, the completed structure was solemnly
dedicated to the worship and service of God.
It is built in the most substantial manner of the best materials.
The front and tower is of Portland brown stone, and the back and
side walls of brick.
The style of architecture is Romanesque or Lombard. The ex-
treme length is 106 feet, and the width 60 feet, with a toAver 20 feet
square, rising 100 feet, with an octagonal finial 45 feet high, making
the entire elevation from the pavement 145 feet. The main audience
room is 76 feet by 56 in width. The Avhole number of pews is 144,
capable of seating about 1000 persons. There is a lecture room seat-
ing over 400, and a Sabbath-school room with semi-circular forms for
classes, seating about 300 scholars.
142 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The pastor's study is in the tower, a beautiful room 12 by 14 feet,
overlooking some of the finest scenery in this country.
The organ, costing over $2000, was built by Mr. J. C. B. Stan-
bridge, and is a remarkably sweet-toned and powerful instrument.
The entire cost of this edifice, which is one of the most convenient
and elegant in the country, -was not far from §50,000 ; including the
ground.
The congregation gratefully acknowledge their obligation to the
Chairman of their building committee, John R. Latimer, Esq., and
his excellent lady, for most efficient and unwearying services in the
completion of this splendid and costly house of worship. Their con-
stant devotion to the work from fi.rst to last, with their liberal expen-
diture of means, tended greatly to stimulate the entire congregation
to carry the enterprise through.
There are few churches in the denomination that have been more
highly prospered by the Master, or done more efiicient service in his
cause than this, through these first years of its history. With His
blessing, who has hitherto helped it, there remains a hopeful future
for still more important work in the city of its location, and in the
lost world its Redeemer came to save.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 185J-18G0. 143
THE UNITED SYNOD
OF THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
The United Synod of the Presbyterian Church, met in the
Second Presbyterian Church, Lynchburgh, Va., Thursday, May 19,
1859, at 11 o'clock, and was opened with a discourse by the retiring
Moderator, of which the following is a very brief outline.
iistottrs^ IjiT get €\rixhs f . gn^, i. §.
2 Cor. iv. 5. " For we preach not ourselves but Christ Jesus the Lord."
The lessons of church history are humiliating, in respect to the
treatment which the preachers of righteousness have received from the
world. Under this general remark, allusion was made to the treat-
ment of Moses by the Israelites — and to the fact that our Saviour, who
was made like unto Moses, was condemned by the popular voice,
while Barabbas Avas released. Paul needed in his arduous work all
the support of the divine principles which he preached, to sustain his
heart amid opposition, persecution, and misrepresentation.
In developing the sentiment of the text, he dwelt, 1st. Upon self-
jjreacliers. Under this head the assumption of those, who undertake
in their preaching to lay down a set of dogmas as the truth, to which
all must become subservient, or be not received and acknowledged
as brothers in Christ, was commented upon — such attempts to bring the
human mind into entire uniformity upon the non-essentials of religion,
was shown to be productive of a servile spirit in those who submit,
not consistent with the "liberty of the Gospel." And it was shown
that in the course of the Reformation, so long as the minds of the
great Reformers were occupied about the great cardinal doctrines of
Christianity — they acted in harmony, whether separated by country
or any other circumstances — but when at a later period, minor points
in the creed of christian belief became matters of controversy, the
great work stood still, and the lovely spirit of charity that bound the
early Reformers together, departed from the churches.
2nd. Christ Jesus the p'oper theme of the Gospel jjreacher. "We
preach Christ," said Romaine, "because we have nothing else to
preach." Faith in Christ and its fruits are the only hope of the
world — and constitute the only principle for moral reformation. The
testimony of distinguished servants of God upon this head, was ex-
ceedingly interesting, and illustrative of the truth tliat Christ, and
Christ only is, and ought ever to be the great theme of the Gospel
preacher.
144 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
Apt quotations were cited from the writings of the apostle Paul, to
show that in his precepts, whether to wives, cliildren, servants, or upon
other questions of moral and social duty, the relation of the duty to
Christ was given in connection with the command that enforced it.
Under the third division of the sermon, the preacher, briefly, but
with much earnestness, dwelt upon the love of a common Saviour as
the tie that binds the hearts of the people of God together. "My
brother," said he, "do you love Chri.st? are you his? Then if I love
him too, no power can keep us apart" — separated for a while, even
though we should be, and walking apparently away from each other,
we shall at length meet each other face to face — that this love so
productive of harmony and all good fruits, might fill the hearts of
members of Synod, and animate all its deliberations was the closing *
wish of the speaker.
The Synod was constituted with prayer, and the Clerk announced
the followinir as

Rev. J. J. Robinson, d. d., of Maryville, Tenn., was elected Mod-
erator, and Rev. I. W. K. Handy, of Portsmouth, Va., Temporary
Clerk.
The Stated Clerk reported :
Tlisit the last Synod directed tlie Stated Clerk to send tlie overture proposing cer-
tain alterations in the Form of Government to the several Presbyteries, which was
done, and tiie following Presliyteries have reported their action : — Clinton, Hanover,
Holston, Kingston, Newton, New River, North Alabama, Union, Winchester, nine
in all.
All of the.«e have answered the overture as fur as it relates to the ratio of repre-
sentation in the United Synod, and to numbers necessary to constitute a quorum of
this body, in the aflirnuitive ; and with reference to the ciiange of name of the high-
est ecclesiastical body of our church, from the General Assembly to the United Synod,
all have answered in the affirmative except New Kiver, the constitution is legally al-
tered in the form specified, and the jiresent United Synod is constituted upon the
basis of representation.
C. H. Read, d.d., Chairman of the Committee of Conference with
the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church, (0. S.) reported :
The Assembly having been advi.scd by an official certificate of our appointment,
and that we waited such action as it might deem expedient in the premise.^, proceeded,
after some discussion, to appoint a committee, consisting of C. Van Rensellaer, d.d.,

B. M. Palmer, d.d., and Rev. Mr. Cunninj^liam, to meet us, and to receive the pro-
posals wliich had been sent by the United Synod,
These papers were reported to the Assembly, together witii a simple recommenda-
tion that they should be put on the docket in the consecutive order of business.
When the Assembly came to act, the paper, submitted by R. J. Breckinridge, d.d.
was passed without a dissenting voice, declining our proposal.
'riiis action of the Assembly', covering, as it did, all the terms and parts of the pro-
posals submitted by us in behalf of the United Synod, and appearing to ns to be in-
tended as ciimprehensive and final, relieved us from any further responsibility in the
premises, towards the establishment of a " mutual correspondence" between us as
ecclesiastical bodies.
A. H. H. Boyd, d.d., Chairman of the Committee of Conference
with the General Assembly, (N. S.,) reported :
That he attended the meeting of the General Assembly at Chicago, 111., for the
purpose of conferring with that body in regard to a proper division of the funds be-
longing to the Church, viz : — a just distribution of the Church Erection funds, and
the necessity of an arrangement in regard to Church property, by which all litigation
might be avoided ; on this latter point nothing was done by the Assembly.
In presenting the claims of the United Synod for a portion of the Church Erection
fund, it was strongly urged that the position taken by the New School Assembly,
was, that the funds of the Church belonged to the whole Church, and should be dis-
tributed according to the numbers in each body.
The result of the conference was the reference by the Assembly, of the whole sub-
ject of the division of the Church Erection fund to the Assembly's Committee on
Church Erection, to report at the meeting of the Assembly in May, 1859. This
course was pursued, because it was thought desirable that the legal effect of distribut-
ing, as proposed, any part of the fund, upon the remainder, should be first determined,
and also to ascertain what Presbyteries and Synods adhere to the United Synod.
F. A. Ross, D.D., Chairman of the Committee on The Polity of
THE Church, made the following report :
'J'hat the Northern boundary of North Alabama Presbytery be extended to the
Northern boundary of the State of Tennessee ; the boundaries of Osage Presbytery to
be co-extensive with the bounds of the Synod of Missouri, and include the State of
Arkansas : that the Synod of Mississippi include the Presbyteries of Osage and North
Alabama ; and the Synod of Virginia include the States of Maryland and Delaware.
A. H. H. BoYD, D.D., Chairman of the Committee on Church Ex-
tension, reported :
That, under the existing circumstances, it is desirable that the Presbyteries in con-
nection with this Synod should first disburse the funds collected by them for Domestic
Missions within their bounds, and that they be requested to pay over to the Board of
Missions whatever may be collected for this object, which may not be necessary for
their own missionary work ; that we also urge upon the churches the importance of
increasing their contributions to the cause of Foreign and Domestic Missions, and to
be more particular in complying with the request of the United Synod made at its
first meeting ; to direct their Committees on Missions to correspond with the Board of
Missions with respect to the wants of their churches and destitute fields ; and that a
missionary meeting be held, and a collection be taken up in behalf of the Missions of
the Board, at each spring meeting of Presbytery.
That the attention of the churches should be especially directed to the Mission in
Greece, which is sustained by the United Synod, and that they are earnestly requested
to take up, annually, a collection for this missionary station.
The following persons constitute the Board of Missions, viz :
Bagly, George Howard, P. F. Price, S. M.
Gaines, W. F. Kerr, Alexander Read, d.d., Charles H.
Gennett, Charles Knowles, B. W. Reannie, Joseph
Gordon, J. N. Lancaster, R. Samson, Thomas

The Committee, Rev. G. A. Caldwell Chairman, reported : That
the religious condition of the churches under the care of the United Synod is very en-
couraging, though no great and general revivals have falcon phice, still the progress
in every material respect has been steady and decided ; and though we find reason for
self-abasement as ministers, oifice-bearers, and members of the Church of Christ, we
yet record with thankfulness His blessing on the preaching of the word, and His gra-
cious answers to the prayers of iiis people. Every Presbytery reports additions to
the communion. Sabbath-schools have been multiplied. Bible classes formed.
The Prayer meceting is more fully attended than formerly, and the Young Men's
Christian Association, and the Union Prayer meetings have developed a working
power in the Church hitlicrto unknown. Our coloured population have not been left
without the means of si-ace.
148 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
We find a cause of sadness in the facts that temperance is at a stand, if not gener-
ally retrositading. And finally the cause of Domestic Missions has received too little
attention durinj? the year, soniethiiu,^ has been done by the Eastern churches, but from
the South and West nothing encourag-ing has been received. Some of our Presbyteries
liave not ministers sufficient to supply one half of their churches with the regular
means of grace. It is a goodly land the Lord has given us, let us go up at once aud
po-sess it.
On motion of Rev. R. McLain, the Synod recommend the Christian Observer,
edited by Rev, A. Converse d.d., and published in Philadelphia, and the Preshyte-
RiAN Witness, edited by Rev. George W. Leyburn, and published at Knoxville, 'i'enu.
to tiie prayers and patronafje of the churches.
'I'lie vote having been taken for dissolving tlie Synod, the Moderator, after prayer
aud the l)encdiction, dissolved the Synod, and authorized another Synod to meet in
the Presbyterian Churcli, Iluntsville, Alabama, on the third Thursday of May, 1860,
at 11 o'clock, A. M.
JOSP^PII IT. MARTIN, Permanent Cleric.
^ Slictcl] of Ik ^m\\ii |resl)i|tcri;in Chirtjr, f mulrhtraf, 0a;.
This Church was organized b}^ the direction of West Hanover
Presbytery, on Wednesday the 19th of May, 1830. It consisted of
twenty-four members, all of •whom except three, had belonged to the
First Presbyterian Church, Lynchburg.
The Church has been supplied with gospel ministrations as follows :
Rev. D. L. Russcl, stated supply from May until October, 1830.
Rev. J. D. Mitchell, pastor, from Dec. 1830, to Dec. 1835.
Rev. J. L. Kirkpatrick, pastor, from Nov. 1837, to April, 1841.
Rev. E. H. Cumpston, pastor, from Nov. 1841, to Oct. 1846.
Rev. E. J. Newlin, pastor, from 1847, to June, 1852.
J. D. Mitchell, D.D., (2nd time,) from August, 1852, to the present.
The whole number of members in full communion during the last
29 years is 325; of these, 94 have been dismissed, and 59 have died;
leaving now in communion 172. Their first house of worship was ex-
ceedingly plain and small, but sufficiently large for their accommoda-
tion. The congregation, having increased in size and ability, erected
the present beautiful Church edifice in the year 1852. It stands in
the veiy centre of the city, on the corner of Third and Market
streets.
This congregation did, by a formal act, adhere to that branch of the
Church, denominated New School, in March 1842.
The following are members of the Session : — Charles L. Morby,
Anderson II. Armistead, David B. Payne, Jno. 0. L. Goggin, J.
Newton Gordon, John H. Winsten, James E. Payne ; and the Dea-
cons are : Thos. Ferguson, Pel eg Seabury, James M. Armistead,
Wm. S. Bowman.
There is preaching twice on Sabbath, one lecture, and one prayer
meeting in the week.
The congregation is divided into districts, and it is the duty of the
elders to visit the congregation once a quarter.
The Sabbath-school is quite flourishing and successful. Doctor
Mitchell, the pastor, is always in attendance, though James F, Payno
is Superintendent.

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0. lol
THE UNITED PRESBYTERIAN CIIUIICII.
The General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Churcu of NoRin
America, met in the First United Presbyterian Church, Xenia, Ohio, according to
the appointment made at the first meeting held in Pittsburgh, Pa., May 2Gth, 1858,
and was opened with a discourse by the retiring Moderator, of which tlie following
is a brief outline:
Discourse % ^xtfi, |oj]i): C. ^rtsslj, g. g.
Dent. 12 : 32. Wliat thing soever I command you observe to do it ; thou shalt not add there to
nor diminish from it.
Thou sbalt worship the Lord thy God and him only shalt thou serve. That God is
to be wort^hipped by all his rational creatures, is not only the doctrine of the Bible,
but the dictate of sober reason. But in what particular manner our religious hom-
age shall be expressed, it is the prerogative of God alone, and not of human wisdom
to determine. Accordingly, in an exposition of the second commandment, which is
of acknowledged authority among all Presbyterians, it is taught, that "The Sucond
Commandment forbiddcth the worshipping of God by images, or any other way not
appointed in his word." If this exposition is correct, it follows as the necessary
consequence, that in every act of religious worship in which we engage, we should
be prepared to give a scriptural answer to the question, " AVlio hath required this at
your hand?" As it re.^pccts the worship of God, the question with which we are
concerned, is not, " Is this particular act not forbidden?" but, " Is it divinely ap-
pointed ?" For that which is not appointed in the worship of God is by implication
forbidden. Of those who in ancient days, set aside divine appointment by human
traditions, our Lord has said, "In vain do you worship me teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men."
It ii proposed to consider the principle involved in the text, in its application to
the subject of social praise. The doctrine maintained by the United Presbyterian
Church is expresstd in the following artic.'e: " It is the will of God, that the songs
contained in the book of Psalms bo sung in his worship, both public and private, to
the end of the world : and in singing God's praise these songs should be employed,
to the exclusion of the devotional compositions of uninspired men."
We therefor maintain:
I. That the songs contained in the book of Psalms should be used in the worship
of God to the end of the world.
II. That, in singing God's praise, these songs should be employed to the exclusion
of the devotional compositions of uninspired men.
In support of the first proposition, I obseive :
1. These songs were given to the Church by her glorious Head, to be used in sing-
ing God's praise. The inspiration of the book of Psalms is universally admitted.
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable, that the man of God
may be thoroughly furnished unto all good works. But the especial design for \i hich
these sacred songs were given, is that the man of God might be furnished with a
suitable system to be employed in the good work of praise. This appears —
(1). Fidin tl:c title which the Holy Spirit applies to this collection of sacred songs;
it is called "the hook of Psalms." Luke 20 ; 42.
(2). From the official character of the author of this book. He is styled "the
Psalmist of I.srael." "David, the son of Jesse, said, and the man who was raised
up on high, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet Psalmist of Israel,
said; tlie Spirit of the Lord spoke by me, and his word was in my tongue." 2 Sam.
23 : 1, 2. Here David is styled not merely a psalmist, bat the Psalmhi of Israel, the
church of God. And for this office he was raised up and anointtd.
(3). From the fact that these songs were employed by the church with divine ap-
probation. For example, a' the dedication oC ihc temple. 2 Chron. 5: 12-14.
And while the-e cinsiileia ions prove the divine appointment of these sotigs to be
employed in singing God's praise, their matter plainly imlicates that they were de-
signed for tlie use. not of one people or of one age, but for all nat;oi;s and for every
age. See Psalms 07 and 100, among many others.
152 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0.
But it may be said that while these considerations prove the propriety of employ-
ing the songs contained in the book of Psalms, they do not prove the unlawfulness
of employing the dcvotioual compositions of uninspired men. I reply that our ob-
ject thus far has been simply to establish the propriety of using the songs contained
in the book of Psalms. The divine appointment of these songs being established, I
proceed to the consideration of our second proposition.
II. These songs should be used to the exclusion of the devotional compositions of
uninspired men. The question is not, Has God expressly forbidden the use of the
devotional compositions of uninspired men in social praise, but has he commanded
it? The doctrine of my text is, Whatsoever God has commanded, Tve must do; but
we may not " add thereto, nor diminish from it." Have we then in the New Testa-
ment the Divine appointment to sanction the use of evangelical hymns composed by
uninspired men ? It devolves upon them who maintain the affirmative to produce the
proof.
In support of our proposition, I remark,
1. Thi're is no book of sacred songs furnished in the New Testament. The duty of
singing God's praise is recognized every where in the New Testament, but there is
no system of sacred songs provided.
2. God has not raised up, nor anointed any one under the New Testament to fill
the office of the psalmist of Israel.
3. There is no promise in the New Testament, of that divine assistance wliich is
necessary to qualify any man to perform the office of the psalmist of the Church.
The argument may be briefly summed up in the following words. It is not only a
commanded duty to sing psalms — to ^ing praise ; but he has provided and given to
his church a book of Psalms. He raised up and anointed a man endowed with the
Holy Spirit, to till the office of psalmist of the church, who composed a great variety
of songs ; and these songs were used in his Church with divine approbation. The
divine appointment of the use of these songs is thus established.
But wiiile the duty of singing God's praise is inculcated in the New Testament, it
contains no book of psalms or hymns; no psalmist was raised up and anointed to
perform the office of providing songs for the use of the church ; nor is there a prom-
ise of divine aid to qualify any man to perform this important office. We fail, there-
fore, to discover divine appointment for the use of evangelical hymns composed by
uninspired men.

NEW VERSION OF THE PSALMS.
The Committee, D. R. Kerr, d.d., Chairman, reported:
That the subject is one of interest and importance to the welfare of the United
Church, and in respect to which it becomes us to move with great caution ; they re-
commend that the version of the Book of Psalms now used, be retained, without any
change that would atFoct its integrity. That to be used in connection with tliis, it is
desirable to have an entirely new version of equal fidelitj', and up to the present state
of literature and laws of versification. That a Committee, Rev. G. D. Archibald,
Chairman, be appointed to take charge of the work, and report to the ne.\t Assembly,
and that this version when reported to the Assembly, if deemed worthy, be overtured
to the Presbyteries.
J. B. Dales, d.d., offered the following, which was adopted :
Resolved, That Rev. James Barnet, Gulian Lansing, and Thomas McCague, mis-
sionaries in Kgypt, under the care of the General Assembly, together with Rev. Janaes
A. Frazier, and John Crawford, similar missionaries in Syria, be authorized to form
themselves into a Presbytery, to be known as the Freshytery of Cairo, under the
jurisdiction of the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church in North
America, and to report to the next Assembly.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 157
'$unti)it of i\)t ^hit at Scligioit.
The Committee, J. B. Dales, d.d.. Chairman, reported, as fol-
lows:
That in the examination of tlie reports of the forty-one Presbyteries under the care
of this General Assembly, they have found much tliat culls for thaiifegiving, at this
the close of the first year in the History of the United Presbyterian Church. During
the past year, twenty- Liiree persons have been licensed, viz :
Anderson, A. R. Foster, James B. Marks, Lafayette Robinson, W. J.
Anderson, T. Frazier, James I. McCartney, Jos. 'I'immins, J. li.
Bain, J. W. Hutchinson, J. C. McCartnev, 'i'hos. Welch, Jas.
Barr, W. W. Jamieson, W. M. McKie, W. R. Whitia, J. L.
Conner, A. Jefifers, W. H. Nevin, J. C. Wilson, W. L.
Ewing, S. C. Kennedy, T. J. Niven, D. C.
and twenty licentiates have been ordained, viz :
Adair, J. M. Currie, W. P. Henry, A. Ormond, B. K.
Clark, J. A. Ewing, R. B. Mercer, 'J'. Pollock, W. A.
Clarke, J. L. Grimes, Wm. McCartney, A. Proctor, P. M.
Coleman, W. M. Haggarty, Jas. McEhvee, W. Robertson, G. H.
Collins, J. A. Harper, John McSurely, W. J, Williamson, R. D.
From all parts of the Church, and in nearly every report, mention is made of the
most happy results of the union between the Associate, and Associate Reformed
Churches. Hearts and hands long alienated, have flowed together in love and good
works.
In many of the reports, pleasing evidence is given of the presence and power of the
Holy Spirit during the year, reviving his work, and making his word and ordinances
more effectual to the appointed end.
Attendance upon public worship is largely increased, and family worship is more
generally and fervently observed, large gatherings lor prayer have been held ; and
prayer meetings in congregations and destitute neighbourhoods have greatly multi-
plied, roots of bitterness have been kept down, and brotherly love has continued ;
pastors and elders have watched more earnestly for souls.
While, however, this has been witnessed and mentioned with devout thanksgiving,
it has not been so with all. Churches and church members, less impressed with a
sense of their personal responsibility, have neglected family duties, and taken little
interest in the spiritual training of children, ready to be carried about by every wind
of doctrine ; over such thereshould be earnest, godly mourning, and every member of
this United Church should say, " We will serve the Lord."
The reports also record that seven of the brethren have been laid aside, viz : Joseph
Banks, A. P. Bell, Thomas Gilkerson, James Laing, A Lowman, McArthnr, P.
James, William Pringle, — they died at their posts with the harness on.
Encouraged and admonished by the past, cheered with the present, and animated
with a well founded and joyous hope of a useful and honoured future, as a branch of
the church of the living God, let ministers, elders, and people be roused to go forward
in the work and way of the Lord, 'i'hen shall we be a blessing indeed, and this
United Presbyterian Church be a light unto the world.
RESOLUTIONS ON INTOXICATING DRINKS.
The Committee, Rev. S. Anderson, Chairman, reported the fol-
lowing :
Resolved, That the manufacture and sale of intoxicating drinks for drinking purpo-
ses, is injurious to the best interests of society, and, therefore, inconsistent with the
law of God.
That the use of intoxicating drinks as a beverage, has a tendency to lead to intem-
perance in a greater or less degree, and is, therefore, inconsistent with the law of God.
158 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1 S60.
That Clinrcli Sessions liave full authority, and it is their duty to enforce the prin-
ciple of totiil abstinence, where they believe the safety of the individual, and the honour
of relip^ion require il.
That the practice of rcntinnf houses, to be occupied in the manufacture and sale of
intoxicaling- drinks as a beverage, is utterly inconsistent with tiie honour of the Chris-
tian religion.

On motion, the last 'I'hursday of February, 1860, v>'ill be observed as a day of
prayer in behalf of the youth of our Church, and of Colleges and Institutions of learn-

called " The Cosmography of Scripture," and was about finishing the work when he
died, the last sentence being left incomplete, and ends in the middle of a word, the
last two letters being imperfect, as if he had been obliged to stop. Mr. Pringle was
a good writer, and some of his sermons bear marks of scholarly attainments, but they
were marred in their delivery by a mouthing kind of elocution common in days that
are happily passing away.

The first notice of this congregation is found in the minutes of the
Presbytery of Kentucky, of a meeting hekl at Cynthiana, Ky., Sep.
28, 1808, being a petition from certain persons in Xenia, 0., for sup-
plies of preaching from the Presbytery; accordingly, Rev. Abraham
Craig preached for them the last Sabbath of October, and the first
Sabbath in November, 1808. The following year preaching was had
four times. In 1810, Rev. John Steele Avas appointed to preach four
Sabbaths in Xenia, previous to a meeting of Presbytery, which was
held at Millersburgh, Ky., April 24, 1810, when he was re-appointed
to preach and preside at the election and ordination of elders ; this
was done.
An extract from the diary of this good man, will show the extent
of the destitution in that portion of Ohio at this early period.
" April 17, 1798, set out from a point near Maysville, Ky.
after crossing the Ohio river, lay out in the Avoods all night, and
reached Chillicothe on the evening of the 20th. Preached at Chilli-
cothe to the Associate Reformed Congregation, from Rom. x. 4, also
Rom. xiv. 17. May 13, crossed the little Miami river in a canoe,
making my horse swim by its side, and preached at the house of Mr.
Morrow, (afterwards Governor of the State.) May 17, preached at
the house of Mr. Beckel. May 20, preached at the house of Mr.
Shaw on Clear Creek. May 21, preached at the house of Mr. Mc-
Knight, near Bell Brook, from Jer. xxxi. 31, 33. On the evening
of May 23rd, tarried at the house of Mr. Galloway, near old Chilli-
cothe."
In 1811, Rev. Adam Rankin, and Wra. Baldridcje preached.
In 1812, Rev. James McCord, and Mr. Wallace preached. In 1813,
a call was made for the pastoral services of Rev. James McCord, but
Mr. McCord joining the Presbyterian Church, this call Avas returned to
the congregation. In 1814, Rev. Messrs. Rankin and Craig preached,
and on the second Sabbath in August administered the Lord's Sup-
per, being the first record of the observance of this hol}^ ordinance by
this congregation. In 1815, and 1816, Rev. Messrs. Risque, !Mc-
Farland, and Steele, preached frequently to this Church, which still
remained "vacant," but in 1817 a call Avas presented to Rev. John
Steele, and accepted ; this was their first pastor, and the relation ex-
isted until 1836, Avhen Mr. Steele resigned, and shortly after died,
viz : January 11, 1837.
The Church remained "vacant," Avith such preaching as could be
obtained by Presbytcrial supplies until October 1845, Avhen a call
was presented to the Rev. R. D. Harper, and accepted the folloAving
year. In 1846 he Avas ordained and installed pastor, and is at this
time holding that relation with this Church.
The first building Avas erected in 1811, Avhich Avas in accordance
■with the primitive state of this ncAvly settled region. In 1817, it be-
106 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
came necessary to increase their accommodations, and a new house
of worsliip was erected. This in 1847 gave way to the commodious
buikling, an engraving of which we give.
In an historical discourse delivered Oct. 31, 1858, the pastor in
bearing testimony to the success of this enterprise, acknowledges the
following as the means by which the Lord had helped them in times
past:
I. By inciting a few individuals, fifty years since, to seek for the
stated administration of the ordinances of the Church in this place.
II. We were blessed with a Christian immigration.
III. We were blessed with faithful office-bearers, pastors, ciders,
and deacons.
According to the principles of Presbyterianism, God has ordained
in liis Church these three classes of office-bearers : pastors to teach
and feed the flock, elders to bear rule in the house of God, and dea-
cons to superintend the wants of the poor, and the temporalities of the
Church in general.
IV. We have been blessed in being preserved from internal discord
and strife.

The Presbyterial Reports were presented, which were referred to
a Committee, Wm. Wilsox, d.d., Cli.iirman, whicli reported : 'I'hiit liaviiin- examined all
the reports of onr Presbyteries, seven in number, lliey find in their statement.'^, evidence
of a good decree of peace and prosperity in our beloved Zion. They cannot but note
the remarkable fact that there is no reference, nor protest and appeal coiuinji- up to
this General Synod from the courts below. 'J'his too does not arise from any la.xity
of di.-^cipline, but from those under our jurisdiction walking worthy of their Jieavenly
vocation.
The ordination of a native minister in Northern India, by the Presbytery of Saha-
ranpur, is highly cheering — the Rev. T. W. J. Wylie, we regard so i'ar as respects
our Presbytery there aiKl this Synod, as the first fruits of India to Christ. Our mis-
sionaries wiih their inslitutions and property, iiave been safe during the late mutiny
in India, This is the Lord's doing, and it is wondrous in our eyes.
168 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The Committee on the Signs of the Times, Hugh McMillan,
D.D., Cliairiiian, reported : That the history of our Church during the past tSjiiodical
year, prescnis many causes of ihauksgiving. The revival of religious experience in many
of our ciiurches, the great interest manifested ou religious subjects, the palpable
conversion of thousands to Christ, call loudly for thanksgiving to God.
Tiie prospect of an increased ministry in ail departments of the Reformed Presby-
terian Ciuircii is calculated to encourage her friends, and soon many men can be
spared from tlie home service, to plant the Church in heathen lands ; and we would
recommend the 4th 'J'hursday of November, 1859, as a day of thanksgiving to God,
and tlie 3rd Tiiursday of February, 1860, as a day of humiliation, fasting, and prayer.
Your Committee suggest that as there are many causes of a local kind, wliicii ought
to be remembered on days of thanksgiving and humiliation, each minister shall select,
in addition to general causes, such as shall most interest and instruct his people.
The Committee on the Union with the United Presbyterian
CiiUKCH, John N. .McLeod, d.d., Chairman, repoited : That they recommend that
this Synod respectfully decline the propo.^al of an incorporating union with the United
Presbyterian Cimrch, That a fraternal letter be written to tlie General Assembly of
the United Presbyterian Church, informing them of our action, and a.ssuring them of
the high consideration of this Synod. That whereas — this General Synod, in retiring
from the convention of Reformed Churches in 1847, did declare: "That before
making any further direct movement in liie matter of Church Union, time be taken
and measures adopted to selile among ourselves the ground on which the whole church
of God may be. and ought to be united in one organic body,"' and as the time seems
to have arrived, when an attempt should be made to answer this question, we invite
the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church to appoint a committee on
this subject Rev. Dr. McLeod was appointed Chairman of a Committee for this
purpose.
The Superintendents of the Seminary respectfully report to the
Synod : That during the past year, meetings were held to consider the interests of the
Seminary, and communications were received from J. N. McLeod, d.d., and A. W.
Black. D.D., Professors elect, stating their readiness to enter at the appointed time on
the l.ibours assigned them by Synod ; but God, by a sudden providence, removed by
death one of the professors, Rev. Dr. Black.
The iJoaid held a meeting to consider the proper course to pursue, and it was
deemed inexpedient to open the Seminary at the time appointed. Being deeply im-
pressed will) the absolute necessity of a Theological Seminary for the welfare, exten-
sion, and pei-manence of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, they recommend that the
General Synod elect a Profe.'^sor in the place of the late Rev. Dr. Black ; that the
Boaid of Trustees be directed to raise an endowment of $20,000, and that the students
be directed by their Presbyteries to wait on th^ instruction given in our own semi-
nary. 'I"he report was adopted, and the General Synod unanimously elected as Pro-
fessor, Theodorus W. J. Wylie, d.d.
§aitr](j 0f €)iuaiia\x.
The Board would present the following report to General Synod :
That during the year eleven young men have received aid. Oae of the young men
commiited to the care of the Board was licensed during the year. Seminarie.'!, Edu-
cation Boards, &c., are oflshoots — necessary ones — of Christian benevolence, and
Church extension, not coming within the direct vision of charity ; and unless to a con-
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 169
siderable extent funded, must continue to be supported throngli the personal solicita-
tion of agents ; oilier denominations found this course necessary. For all these pur
poses there is abundant surplus wealth within our Church ; and if as a separate body
we continue to march under our own distinctive banner, while fighting the battle of
the Lord, our recruiting and drilling must be kept in the best possible order. Our
present prospects are encouraging, and we have a good hope for au adequate supply
for the ministry.
§0itrtj 0f g^nustic glissi0ns.
The Board would respectfully report to General Synod :
That the three separate interests which the Church has confided to our care, viz :
The Domestic Missionary, The Jewish Mission, and the Sustentation Fund, have each
Lad that degree of attention, which it was possible to give. Of i\\e first, little has
been done, owing to the fact that we have no young men under our supervision, and
very few in the ordained ministry. Of the second, but little has been done ; Rev. S.
Bonhomme has, we believe, laboured with diligence, in the midst of self-denial. Of
the third, the Treasurer's report will show that the contributions of thd Church are
not on the increase, only sixteen congregations having contributed. The Board feel
the importance of meeting two days before the meeting of Synod; when information
could be obtained from each Presbytery, and their wants more fully known.
§a;irtr 0! |0rngn Hissi0its.
The Board would respectfully report to General Synod :
That it is now almost tweiity-fonr years since our first missionaries were sent out to
India. At that time it was doubtful whether the Church would support one mission-
ary ; it was found that our people would cheerfully sustain not only one, but five,
and as their number increased, the means came with less difficulty. The Board earn-
estly desire to submit the following inquiries :
Shall we adopt measures to send out during the year five missionaries ?
Shall these be sent to India, or shall other fields be occupied ?
It was Resolved, That the questions propounded by the Foreign Board be held open
for future consideration, and that the Board report at the next meeting of the Synod.
The Committee on the tri-centenary celebration, T. W. J,
Wylie, D.D., Chairman, reported : That a committee be appointed to prepare an ad-
dress to the churches on this subject, with power to reconmiend some suitable jilan
for the observance of that impoV ant era in our history. This committee was subse-
quently appointed, with Dr. Wylie as Chairman.
It was on various motions resolved : that the tlianks of General Synod be gratefully
tendered to the citizens of Philadelphia for their kind hospitality during the Session.
To the various Railroad Companies who politely reduced their fare to the delegates.
To George H. Stuart for his entertainment of the Synod at his residence. To the
Trustees of the First Reformed Presbyterian Church, and also to Mr. James Jones,
sexton, for the accommodation and special attention rendered to tiie members.
It was on motion Resolved : 'I'hat General Synod adjourn to meet in the First Re-
formed Presbyterian Church, Allegheny city, Pa., on the third Wednesday in May,
1860, at 7)i>' P. M. After prayer, and singing the 133rd Psalm, the Synod adjourned.

Black, Andrew Watson — The son of Rev. John Black, d.d„ and Elizabeth
Watson Black, was bcirn near Pittsburgh, Pa., April 24, 1808. Receiving at the
hands of his parents the most careful training, his literary education was pursued under
the eye of his father, and for some time at the Academy in Pittsburgh, under Rev.
Dr. Robert' Bruce. He entered the Western University of Pa., and graduated in
1825. He soon after commenced the study of Theology in the Seminary of the Re-
formed Presbyterian (Jhurch, at Philadelphia, where he remained through the whole
course. In 1828 he was licensed by the Presbytery of Pittsburgh, and spent some
time travelling in the South and West; on his return, he was ordained and installed
pastor of vSiienango and Ne.-hanock Churches, January 18, 1832. By excessive
labours his health became impaired, and in 1838 he resigned his charge and returned
to Pittsburgh ; but he could not remain unemployed, and in the following year he ac-
cepted a call from the Church in Allegheny city. Pa., being a colony from his father's
congregation. While pastur in Allegheny, he accepted the appointment of Moral
Instructor in the Western Penitentiary. In 1855 he felt called upon to resign his
charge, and liecamc agent for the American Bible Societv. In 1857 he visited, as a
delegate from the Reformed Presbyterian Church, the Evangelical Confcrcnceat Ber-
lin, Prussia. In 1858 he was elected Professor of Exegetical, Historical, and Evan-
gelistic Theology, in the Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian Church at Phila-
delphia, and was preparing for the duties which devolved upon him by the unanimous
wish of the Church, when he was taken ill, and died, Sept. 10, 1858, at his residence
near Pittsburiih, Pa., of dysentery. He married Miss Margai'et Roseburgh of Pitts-
burg, who, with several ciiildren, survives him.
Dr. Black wrote many articles for the press, and was a noted man in the Church,
as well as in the comnnmity in which he lived. He took a prominent part in the liter-
ary, benevolent, and religious institutions of his locality and country, and was a ready
off-hand platform speaker. He sent a dying request to Rev. John Niel McLeod, d.d.
of New York, to preach his funeral discourse, which he did ; it has since been pub-
lished.
Cooper, Ebenezer — Was born Aug. 1795, in Chester District, South Carolina.
lie was thu son of John and Mary Cooper, who were very attentive to the training
of their children. Givini;- evidence of early piety, after attaining fne proper academical
education, he entered the South Carolina College, having the ministry in view, where
he graduated. He studied 'I'heology in the Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian
Church at Philadelphia, under the control of that eminent man of God, Rev. Dr. S.
B. Wylie. In 1827 he was licensed and ordained by the Pres. of Pliiludelphia, and en-
tered upon the active duties of the ministry in West Tennessee, taking charge of
Hephzibah Church ; here he remained some years, but resigned on account of his jailing
health. He removed to Ohio, being a member of Ohio Presbytery at the time of his
death, which took place at Cedarville, Ohio, Nov. 13, 1858, after a lingering illness,
of dropsy.
He married Miss Jane McMillan ; they had seven children, six sons and a daughter ;
two of his eldest sons are studying for the ministry, and his whole family bear witness
to the godly manner in which they have been instructed.

Rev. Mr. Reid of the Preformed Presbyterian Church in Scotland,
"who had been sent on a mission to the United States in 1790, spent
some time in Phihadelphia, preaching to a few individuals and consti-
tuting a society ; shortly after Rev. W. Gibson brought on from New
York, where an organization had already been made, two elders,
Messrs. Andrew Giflford and David Clark, and having constituted a
session, organized the society into a congregation, and ordained as
elders, Messrs. Thomas Thompson, and Stephen Young ; this took
place on Sabbath, Januai'y 28, 1798, in the house of Mr. Thompson,
where the meetings for worship were held. For a long time Mr. Thomp-
son's humble abode in Lombard Street below Front, was the resort
of all those who were attached to the Covenanted cause, and its hos-
pitable proprietor, as far as he was able, gave a welcome to every
friend of the Redeemer ; he with his wife were emigrants from the
county Down, Ireland — staunch Covenanters, who had been in com-
munion with Mr, Stavelys' congregation near Belfast. They were poor
in this world's goods, but rich in faith. In this house met for the
worship of God, Messrs. John Stewart, James McGowan, and Stephen
Young from Scotland, Charles Huston, John Wallace, William
Atchison, Andrew Atchison, and Samuel RadcliflF from Ireland, to
these Avere shortly added John McKinley from Desertown near
Derry, Joseph McClurg from Coleraine, Robert Orr from Strabane,
John Black, Thomas McAdam, John Reilly, and Samuel B. Wylie.
The meetings of the society were held on Wednesday evening, and on
such Sabbaths as they could not obtain preaching ; this society with
the^r families. Rev. W. Gibson organized into the First Reformed
Presbyterian Church of Philadelphia; they were industrious,
economical, and well-behaved, and though poor and but few in num-
bers, they furnished a comfortable support to Mr. Gibson for the half
of his time.
In 1798 the Reformed Presbytery, which had been dissolved at the
formation of the Associate Reformed Church in 1782, was re-consti-
tuted by Rev. James jMcKinney, and W. Gibson. In the summer
of 1797, Mr. McKinney had obtained a lot in St. Mary Street
above Sixth, on which to erect a Church, but the yellow fever break-
ing out in the city, the work was suspended, and he left for Galway,
New York ; but the year following, when Mr. Gibson came to the city,
he returned, and organized the Reformed Presbytery. The congre-
gation at this time met in a school house in Gaskill Street below
Fifth, and it was here also that the first meeting of the Presbytery
was held.
The congregation increasing, the eldership was enlarged by the
election, Aug. 5, 1801, of John Stewart, Wm. Henry, Thomas Mc-
Adam, and John Reilly ; Mr. Stephen Young, one of the first elders,
having returned to Scotland: he was a worthy and excellent man.

In 1802, the communion was dispensed by Rev. Messrs. McLeod
and Wylie to thirty-five persons, and in the f^ill of this year a call
was presented to Rev. S. B. Wylie, which was accepted on condition
that he would be allowed to 6pend a year in Europe, Avhich was
granted. During his absence he collected money for his young and
feeble church, receiving nearly 250 dollars ; this assistance was grate-
fully acknowledged by a formal vote of the congregation, being at
that time few in numbers, and with very limited resources, they were
yet engaged in erecting a church edifice.
On the return of Mr. Wylie, he was installed by Rev. Mr. Black.
In 1805 an effort was made by the united Presbyterian Churches of
Galway and Duanesburgh, N. Y., to obtain his services, but after
prayerful consideration, he remained at his post. The cause, which
had been very discouraging, became more hopeful, twenty-five being
added to the Church at the subsequent communion, and in 1808 an
increase of the session was ordered, and John McKinlcy, James Rob-
inson, and Robert Orr, were set apart to that office. In 1809 Mr.
John Reilly, one of the elders, was licensed to preach, and his connec-
tion with the congregation terminated. Their Church accommodations
being too limited for their numbers, about this time the house and
lot in St. Mary Street was disposed of, and a lot in Eleventh Street be-
low Market was purchased ; the erection of the building occupied a
considerable time, during which, the congregation were alloAved by
the Trustees of the Second Associate Reformed Church in Thirteenth
Street above Market St., the use of their house. Their new building
was dedicated to the worship of God, June 21, 1818, during this year
the Church was chartered by the Legislature of the State.
In 1819 the congregation still increasing, the eldership was en-
larged by the ordination of Isaac Campbell, John Murphy, and Sam-
uel Bell, and in 1820, Caleb Gray, who had been ordained in the As-
sociate Reformed Church, connecting himself with the Church, was
recognized as an elder. In 1824 Hugh Hardy, an elder in the Re-
formed Presbyterian Church in Ohio, was added to the number, and
in 1829, Henry Stirling, an elder in the Reformed Presbyterian
Church, Pittsburgh, was also acknowledged as an elder in this con-
gregation. During this year more room becoming necessary, the
Church was enlarged.
About this period, at what was called a pro re nata meeting of the
Eastern subordinate Synod, several acts were passed by which minis-
ters were suspended, this attracted a good deal of attention at the
time, and a number of the congregation left and organized another
Church. After the storm blew over, the atmosphere as usual became
more clear, and the prosperity which had heretofore marked the progress
of the Church, soon returned, and in 1835 they colonized the Second
Reformed Presbyterian Church, near Fairmount, and the same year
an addition was made to the eldership, by the election of James
Craig, Robert Guy, Robert Lowry, and Charles Bruster ; this was
necessary, Mr. Gray having died, Mr. Bell having removed from
the city, and Mr. Murphy becoming connected with the Second Re-
formed Church. The popularity of the pastor, and the manifest
174 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
usefulness of the congregation, caused it to prosper exceedingly, and
in 1842, Messrs. Clement McCune, Wm. Montgomery, John Alexan-
der, and George H. Stuart, were set apart and ordained as elders.
In 1843, in view of an increasing congregation, and the advancing
age of their pastor, it was decided to call a colleague pastor ; and Oct.
26, 1843, his son. Rev. Theodorus W. J. AVylie, was unanimously
chosen. In 1846 a second colony was set off, and organized the
Third Reformed Presbyterian Church, Kensington; this took place
July 6, 1846.
In January 1850, it was resolved to sell the Church and lot in
Eleventh Street, and the proceeds to go towards the erection of a new
Church. A Building Committee was appointed, consisting of George
H. Stuart, Oliairman, Hugh Clark, David W. Denison, George Gor-
don, Jas. Graham, Jr., Robert Guy, James S. Martin, Matthew Mc-
Bride, William Ray, and Marshall Scott, to Avhom was intrusted the
management of the whole affair ; they reported progress from time
to time.
Oct. 13, 1852, the senior pastor, Rev. S. B. Wylie, died full of
years and honours ; the whole charge of the congregation now devolved
upon his son, who assumed the entire duties of the pastorate.
xi congregational meeting was held Feb. 13, 1853, when it was de-
cided to purchase the lot on the East side of Broad Street above
Pine Street, this was done, and arrangements made with John Mc-
Arthur, Jr., Architect, and John INIcClure, Builder, to erect a Church
edifice. The corner stone was laid April 28, 1853, on which occasion
the Rev. John McDowell, d.d., of the Presbyterian Church, (0. S.,)
Rev. Wm. Sterrett of the Reformed Presbyterian Church, Rev. Wm.
Ramsey, D.D., of the Presbyterian Church, (N. S.,) Rev. Richard
Newton, d.d., of the Episcopal Church, Rev. A. A. Willets, of the
Reformed Dutch Church, Rev. Henry A. Boardman, d.d., of the
Presbyterian Church, (0. S.,) and Rev. John Chambers, Independent,
assisted the Pastor and Building Committee.
The Church is in the Byzantine style, with a front on Broad Street
of seventy feet, with bell towers on the angles, eighty-tAvo feet high.
A cloistered porch in front, forming a cover to the entrance, from
which gallery stairs start to the towers ; the audience chamber is sixty-
three feet wide, by seventy-one feet six inches deep, single galleries
on either side and double galleries in front, access to which is by four
stairways, two in front, and two in the rear, communicating with the
Sabbath-school room ; the ceiling is thirty-tAvo feet from the floor, is
ornamented with exposed principals filled with perforated panel work.
The glass of the windows is of a fawn colour, enamelled. The pulpit
stands upon a platform, richly pannelled and ornamented, the recess
behind it is circular, groined in the ceiling and surmounted by per-
forated scroll ornaments. The lecture room in the rear of the Cliurch
is forty feet nine inches wide, by forty-eight feet six inches in depth,
with an infant school room and pastor's study, the latter connecting
with the pulpit by a private stairway. The entire second story of this
building connecting with the Church galleries, is occupied by the Sab-
bath-school, its dimension is forty-nine feet six inches, by sixty-three

feet six inches, thus making the roof one hundred and fifty feet in
depth. The Chiirch was finished and dedicated to the worship of Al-
mighty God, Sabhath, April 30, 1854. In the morning, the pastor,
Rev. T. W. J. WyHe, preached from 1 Kings viii. 57. " The Lord our
God be witli us as he was with our fathers." In the afternoon, John
N. McLcod, D.D., of New York, preached from Luke xii. 32. "Fear
not little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you
the kingdom." In the evening, Alexander Duff, d.d., of Calcutta,
India, preached from Psalm xcvi. The Sabbath-school was opened
in the afternoon, the exercises being conducted by Alexander
Duff, D.D., J. N. McLeod, d.d., Rev. R. Patterson, Rev. S. L. Fin-
ney, F. A. Packard, Esq., Rev. J. W. Faires, and Rev. W. T. Wylie.
The collections taken up during the entire day were $800, which
were devoted to the cause of Foreign Missions.
This Church has always been liberal ; during the past year the col-
lections were for Foreign Missions, $3,788 ; Domestic Missions, $150;
Congregation, $4,511. Total, $8,299.

'i'liis was established iu 1824, and lias been an important feature in the internal
economy of this Cluirch. It has been a prolific nursery from whence many precious
children have been transplanted into the carden of the Church. The first Superintendent
was Mr. Thomas ]\lcAdam, who devoted many years of prayerful labour iu its behalf.
His successors were, Messrs. Robert Orr, J. Craig, and J. Alexander. The present
Superintendent, Mr. George H. Stuart, has devoted his time and talents in perfecting

A brief memou' of those w^ho were identified with the early history of the Church,
and laboured lailhfally in its behalf, is here placed upon record.
Thompson, Thomas — Was born in County Down, Ireland, in 174T. Immigrat-
ing to this country, he took up his residence in Philadelphia. Being born in an hum-
ble condition of life, he had formed habit.s of industry and economy, and being trained
in Rev. Mr. 8lavely"s congregation near Belfast, Ireland, he was a thorough Presby-
terian ; consequently when any friend of his faith came to Philadelphia, he was sure
to find his way to the lowly dwelling of i\[r. Thompson, in Lombard street near the
river Delaware, and he would receive a welcome prompted by a true Irish heart. It
was in his house the Church was organized, with himself as its first elder, and from
that time until his death, he proved himself a consistent, persevering friend of the Re-
formed Church. He died July 10, 180G, and was buried in the little graveyard in St.
Mary street. For this nuin the Rev. Dr. W'ylie had a most warm afiection, and often
has been seen shedding tears at the grave of his friend.
McAdam, Thomas — Was born April 10, 1777, near Ballymcna, County Antrim,
Ireland. H is parents were very respectable members of the Irish Presbyterian Church,
then called the Synod of Ulster. He was an ardent friend of liberty, and the op-
pressive measiues of the British Government at that time, led him to take an ac»
live part in the eflorts made to obtain freedom in Ireland. Incurring the suspicion
of the officers of the law, and being in danger of losing his life by a sunnnary trial, he
left his native land, and in company with the late Rev. Dr. Wylie, and Rev. Dr. J.
Black, who were his intimate fiiends, he arrived in America on the 10th of October,
1797. During the ])rincipal portion of his life he was engaged as a teacher in Phila-
delphia or its vicinity, being for u considerable period at the head of the mathemati-
cal and Knglisli school connected with the University of Pennsylvania. Shortly after
his arrival in Philadelphia, he became a member of the First Reformed Presbyterian
Church, and in 1801 was ordained a ruling elder, an office which he discharged with
great ability during the remainder of his life. He was for many years Superintendent
of the Sabbath-school, and was also Treasurer of the Board of Missions of the General
Synod of the Reformed Presbyterian Church. He was an active, liberal, and judi-
cious member of the congregation. He died Nov. 16, 1844, after an illness of a few
hours. He was a man of noble and generous disposition, dignified and kind in his
manners, intelligent, sensible, and truthful.
Craig", James — Was born at Leiter, near Derry, Ireland, in 1799. About the
age of eighteen he experienced, as lie was well persuaded, that change of heart, with-
out which no one can enter into the kingdom of God. He inunigrated to America, and
shortly after became connected with the Scots Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia,
then under the care of Rev. W. L. McC.'illa. In 1828 he joined the J'irst Reformed
Presbyterian Church, in which he became a ruling elder in 1836. He was lor many
years a very efficient teacher in the Sabbath-school, and for some time its Superin-
tendent. When the subject of Foreign Missions began to attract attention in the
Reformed Presbyterian Church, he became deeply interested therein, and in addition
to his other efforts he offered himself as a mission'an' to Northern India. Being ac-
cepted by the Pi'csbyterian Board, in company with his wife, he arrived in Saharun-
pur in 1838, and shortly after took charge of the English school, which he continued
to teach until his last illness. He died August, 16, 1845. The faith which he had cher-
ished from his youth sustained him in his dying hour. He was a man of eminent io-
tegrity and truthfulness; reserved in his manners, yet kind; serious, thoughtful, and
prayerful.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 177
Henry, William — Was born near Ncwry, County Down, Ireland, Oct. 22, 1768.
He immigrated to America in 1793, and shortly alter connected himself with the
First Presbyterian Church, then under the care of Rev. Dr. Ewing. Soon after the
organization of the First Reformed Presbyterian Church, he became connected with
it, and in 1801 was ordained a ruling elder. lie was a wise counsellor, a man of
peace, willing to spend and be spent in the service of his Lord. In pastoral visita-
tion, and in the prayer meeting he was especially useful ; while in the secular employ-
ments of life, as a mechanic, and afterwards as a merchant, he was noted for his in-
tegrity, his industry, and his intelligence. He constructed in 181 G the first apparatus
used in America to supply gas, which was used in Peale's Museum, Philadelphia,
with great success. From conscientious principles he declined lighting a theatre in
this mode. His death occurred after a long and painful illness, April 29. 1846. His
last days were peculiarly serene.' Shortly before his death, he assembled his family
around his dying bed, and commending them to the God in whom he had so long
trusted himself, like aged Jacob, he tranquilly resigned his soul to God. He was a
man of truth and uprightness, unspotted by the world ; kind, peaceable, generous, and
an intelligent, humble, consistent Christian.
McKinley, John — Was born at Desertown, near Derry, Ireland, in 1772. The
warm impulses of an intelligent and noble mind led him to connect himself with those
■who sought to disenthrall his country from British bondage. In consequence he be-
came obnoxious to the government, and was obliged to leave his native land. He ar-
rived in America in 1797, and shortly after obtained employment as a teacher, in
which occupation he continued till neor the close of his life, being for many years at
the head of the Charity schools of the University of Pennsylvania. Being a member
of the Reformed Presbyterian Church in Ireland, he became connected with the con-
gregation in Philadelphia on his arrival here. He was ordained a ruling elder in
1808, and was pre-eminently useful in this office. His warm-hearted kindness, his
sincerit}', his earnestness, his judiciousness, his unweariedness, his extensive informa-
tion, his remarkable gifts in prayer and exhortation, made him a most valuable mem-
ber of the session and the congregation. He died in 1852, sustained by the strong
consolations of an unwavering faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
PASTORS.
Samuel Brown Wylie, d.d., lt,.d., the first pastor, was born in IMoylarg,
County Antrim, Ireland, May 21, 1773. He was endowed by his Creator with
a mind and body of great firmness and vigour. He commenced a student's career in
early life. His purpose was to master evei'y subject of which he laid hold, and his
perseverance seconded his purpose. He entered the University of Glasgow, where his
diligence and ability won the approbation of the professors, and passing through the
several classes, he graduated with distinguished honour, as Master of Arts. In 1797,
soon after his graduation, he emigrated to this country, and landed at New Castle,
Delaware, Oct. 18, 1797, after a passage of seventy days ; owing to the prevalence of
the yellow fever in Philadelphia, when the passengers landed at New Castle, they
scattered in various directions, Mr. Wylie in company with Mr. McAdam, started on
foot to the city, where they arrived on Saturday Oct. 31, at sundown, and stopped at
No. 208 North Second street. Ilis fellow passengers had been Messrs. John I31ack,
John Reilly, and Thomas McAdam, they were all well educated, and were earnestly
engaged seeking employment. Mr. McAdam, being the first to obtain a situation,
generously divided his earnings with his less successful companions. In about six
weeks they were all at work : ^Ir. Reilly as teacher near Darby, and through the
kindness of a venerable Friend, Messrs. Black and Wylie in the same capacity, in
Lower Dublin and Cheltenham, about ten miles north of the city. They remained
here until the fall of 1798, when they were appointed tutors in the University of
Pennsylvania.
They belonged to that noble band which met in Brother Thompson's humble dwell-
ing, and were both recognized as students of Theology by the Reformed Presbytery ;
on June 25, 1799, at a meeting of Presbytery, held in Coldenham, New York, they
were licensed to preach the gospel. Mr. AVylie preached some time in Wallkill, N. Y.
and assisted Mr. McKinney at a communion in Galway, N. Y., and in the winter of 1800
he returned to Philadelphia. June 25th of this year, he was ordained as a minister

of the gospel at Rycgate, Vermont, and was one of a committee appointed to visit
tlie clinrches in the South in relation to slavery, as the Reformed Presbj'tery had
decided against slaveholders remaining in their communion. The committee de-
scended tlie Ohio river as far as Alajsville, Ky., when they commenced tlieir journey
on horseback through Kentucky, Tennessee, and South Carolina ; in this latter State
they found all their members willing to relinquish slaveholding. On their return they
reported to Presbytery, and soon after Mr. Wylie received a call to this newly or-
ganized congregation ; this call he accepted, but pi'evious to settling, he went to Eu-
rope, and was absent a year. In 1803 he was installed, and for a period of fifty years
he by a godly example illustrated the Christian life. ^VhiIst labouring as pastor, he
was Professor of Greek and Latin in the University of Pennsylvania, and subsequently
he became Vice Provost of the same institution. He was also Professor of Theology
and Hebrew in the Theological Seminary of the Reformed Presbyterian Church.
In 1847 the fiftieth anniversary of his arrival in this country, his many friends in
his congregation and out of it, held a public meeting in the Church, at which, ar-
rangements were made to commemorate the event, which was done by presenting him
in a public manner with a service of plate, and a purse of five hundred dollars in gn!i].
Owing to increasing years Dr. Wylie resigned from the Professorship in the Uni-
rersity, and was elected Emeritus Professor. \
Thus full of years, honoured by the Church, blessed by his heavenly Father, did
this great and good man go down to the grave, surrounded by fiiends in every depart-
ment of life ; for the Alumni of the University were alwaj's ready to speak in glowing
terms of their Professor. Visit them where you might, in the various departments of
educated life, at the bar, upon the bench, in legislative halls, in the chair of State, in
professors' chairs, or in the abode of suffering humanity, where medical skill meets
disease, or in the sanctuary, where God's minister proclaims the language of heaven —
all bear willing testimony to the worth of this distinguished man, and in the dwell-
ings of the poor his beloved name was a household word. AVithout any apparent
disease, his robust frame gradually gave way, and he quietly slept in Jesus, Oct. 13,
1852.
He was buried in Woodland Cemetery, his funeral being attended by crowds of
mourning friends from all ranks and professions of life. It M-as a noticeable event,
and the papers of the day recorded his death as a public calamity.
His son, Thkodorus VV. J. Wylie, d.d., who was the colleague pastor for soiue
>fears, succeeded his father, and is now the pastor of the Church.

York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Rochester, and find nothing in them contrary to the
law and order of the Church.
180 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The Committee on the Signs of the Times, Rev. A. Stevenson,
Cbairnian, reported : That an attentive observation of God's dealings with his Church
and the nation, is always necessary and nseful. Isa. xxii. 12-14. Among ourselves,
Me have many causes for fasting, viz : 1'he weakness of grace in our hearts. The
strength of our corruptions. The prevalence of sin among us. The spirit and man-
ner of our attendance upon the ordinances of grace, God's providential dealings with
us. And wheu we look at the condition of other religious denominations, we see many
tilings which call us to mourning before God. For these and many other causes, the
Synod appoints the first Thfirsday in Feb. 1860, as a day of fasting, humiliation, and
prayer, to be observed by all the people under its care.
VVhen we look at the providences of the Mediator in the light of his word, we Cnd
many things to call Ibrth our gratitude. The blessing of civil and religious liberty
whicii we enjoy. Our educational advantages. That the true character and abomi-
nations of tiie great evils of the day are being more and more exposed. The progress
of the Lord's work among ourselves, and throughout tlie world. For the continuance
of gospel ordinances amongst us. The hope we have from God's promises, the light
of prophecy, and the signs of the times, that (he day of Zion's troubles draws near its
close. For these and other reasons, Synod appoints the fourth Thursday of November
1859, as a day of thanksgiving and prayer by all the people under its care.
The Committee on Foreign Correspondence, Rev. W. L. Rob-
ei'ts, Chairman, reported a letter from the Irish Synod, to which they have replied.
The Committee on Slavery, Rev. J. R. W. Sloane, Chairman,
reported : 'I'hat slavery, the holding of men as property, to be bought and sold as
'•chattels personal," is a malum per se, (au evil in itself,) wholly at variance with the
Divine word.
'I'hat we are more firmly convinced that the Constitution of the United States is
the great stronghold and bulwark of this system of violence and oppression, and that,
therefore, we will continue to testify against it, refuse to swear the oath of allegiance
to it, or obey its unholy requirements.
That those who attempt to defend slavery from the Bible, to impose upon the com-
munity the enormous lie that God by his word sanctions a sin so heinous, are guilty
of one of the Avorst and most dangerous forms of infidelity exhibited in this age and
nation. That we will labour and pray for the emancipation of the captive, the com-
ing of rtiat day when God will break every yoke, undo the heavy burden, and let the
oppressed go I'ree.
The Committee on the Theological Seminary, Rev. S. 0. Wylie,
Chairman, reported : That four years have passed since the re-organization of the
Seminary, and the Church is already reaping and enjoying the fruits of the institu-
tion. The first chair has become vacant by the resignation of the Professor. During
the year, ten students were in attendance, and on their examination by the Board
gave evidence of attention to their various studies. It is also recommended that the
Synod fill the vacant chair ; this was subsequently done by the unanimous election of
James M. Willson.
The Committee on Missions, Rev. J. R. W. Sloane, Chairman,
reported : That they have examined the records of the Foreign and Domestic Mis-
sions, and find they present a healthful condition of these two departments ; in the Do-
mestic department, they have been embarrassed for want of funds, from the failure of
Presbyteries to fulfil its requirements ; it is recommended that the Board be
directed to delegate no licentiate to any Presbytery for a shorter period than three
months, and before being permitted to enter upon the stated labours of a pastor be
must have fulfilled all his appointments.
The Committee on the Communication from the United Presbyte-
rian Church in N. A., proposing to the Synod the proj)riety of joining their body,
Ilev. T. Sprouli,, Chairman, reported : That they replied to the letter, assuring the
United Presbyterian Church of our fraternal regards, and that we have watched the
course they have thought proper to pursue with interest and attention ; but that our
present standing has been deliberately taken, and by divine grace we will persevere
until the great end, and the enthronement of Messiah shall be effected.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0. 181
The Committee on a memorial to Congress, Rev. R. Z. Will-
son, Chairman, reported : That tliey liave prepared a petition which asks Congress
to make such alterations in the Constitution of the United States, that it will acknow-
ledge the being and authority of Cod, an acknowledgment of submission to the au-
thority of the Church, to recognize the paramount obligation of God's law, and that it
may be rendered, in all its principles and provisions, adverse to any form of slavery
within the national limits.
A communication was received from the Presbyterian Histori-
cal Society, asking for a collection to aid them in establishing a publication fund.
'J'he application v;as granted, and the claims of the society referred to the ministers
and churches of Synod.
On several motions the thanks of the Synod were returned to the Railroad Com-
panies granting excursion and return tickets ; to the brethren of Allegheny and Pitts-
burgh for the hospitable entertainment of the ministers.
And on motion the Synod adjourned, to meet in the Second Eeformed Presbyteriau
Church, New York, on May, 1861, at 1}^ o'clock, P. M. Synod adjourned with
prayer, and singing 133d Psalm.

^u f istfliitiil ^Iictd] ai \\n gcfDrmciJ |)resbirtcniin (Congregation
of littsliurgl] an^ gUcgljcng, ^w.
The First Reformed Presbyterian Congregation, west of tlic Alle-
gheny Mountains, had its centre in Pittsburgh, and was bounded on
the North by Lake Erie, and extended indefinitely West and South.
It was organized about the beginning of this century, and the late
Dr. John Black was ordained and installed its pastor. In a few years
other congregations being formed out of it, it was reduced to Pitts-
burgh and its immediate vicinity. At the time of the division of the
Church in 1833, a remnant adhered to the old constitutional ground
of the Church, which was that of practical dissent from the United
States Government, on siccount of its non-acknowledgment of God,
and his law in its Constiuuion, and its sanction and support of slavery.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 183
These were not more than one-fifth of the whole number of the con-
gregation. In 1834 thej called their present pastor Thomas Sproull,
who was settled over them in May of that year. In 1836 they had
succeeded in erecting the house of worship in Allegheny, in which the
Reformed Presbyterian S3mod held its Session in 1859.
The congregation now numbers three hundred and seventy-five
communicants. There are fourteen praying societies that meet every
week for devotional exercises. The Sabbath-school consists of one
hundred and fifty pupils, many of whom have been clothed and
brought in by the self-denying exertions of young females of the con-
gregation. The Bible class taught by the pastor, consists of nearly
fifty young men and young women, who recite in the Bible and sub-
ordinate standards of the Church, an hour every Sabbath morning.
The congregation is in no permanent debt, and its members contribute
cheerfully to the various funds of the Church, as well as to aid breth-
ren in other places to erect houses of worship.
On the lot purchased by the congregation for the erection of the
Church, there is erected by Pittsburgh Presbytery a building for a
College. It is now occupied by Allegheny city College, an institu-
tion where a number of the youth of the Church of both sexes are ob-
taining a substantial education. A recitation room and a hall in this
building has been assigned by the Presbytery to the Theological
Seminary, which has there its sessions annually, from the first of No-
vember till the last of March, of each year.
The eldership consists of Messrs. William Hazlett, Thomas Newell,
Robert Adams, Robert McKnight, David Gregg, Daniel Erwin, and
E'^nry Stewart.

Churcli, Hopewell, Tennessee, on Monday, Oct. 10, 1859, and was
opened with a discom'se by the retiring Moderator, R. C. Grier, d.d.,
from 2 Cor. ii. 16. " To the one we are the savour of death unto
death ; to the other we are the savour of life unto life. And who

The Synod proceeded to the election of Moderator, which resulted
in the selection of Henry Bryson, d.d., of Tennessee Presbytery.
Reports were received from the following Presbyteries, Alabama,
First, Georgia, Kentucliy, Memphis, Second, Tennessee, and Virginia. From these
reports, it appears that the cause of Chri.st is being advanced, and thougli without
any marlced exhibition of power, the gracious influence of the Holy Spirit has ruaui-
fested itself in a number of churches.
Rev. D. G. Phillips, the Permanent Clerk of the Synod, reported :
That he had transcribed the Minutes of the Associate Reformed Synod of the South,
from 1841 to 1858, both inclusive, into a suitable boolj, and he was ready to submit
the book to the inspection of the Synod.

Professor E. L. Patton was elected President of Erskine College,
in place of R. C. Grier, d.d., resigned.
The Theological Seminary was removed from Due West, Albeville
District, South Carolina, to Nasliviile, Tennessee ; and R. C. Grier, d.d., was ap-
pointed Prol'essor. It was resolved that the theological conrso for the future shall
consist of three years, with seven months for a session each year.
Rev. R. C. Matthews, of Monmouth, Illinois, was present, and
addressed the Synod as the Delegate of the General Assembly, 0. S. Dr. Boyce, with
Dr. H. Thompson for alternate, was appointed the Delegate of this Synod to attend
the next General Assembly to meet at Rochester, N. Y., in May next.
Rev. John S. Pressly and Rev. J. I. Bonner were appointed a
Committee to consider the practicability of securing a republication of tlie constitu-
tion and standards of the Associate Reformed Church.
Dr. BoYCE, Chairman of the Board of Foreign Missions, reported
that the Board had selected Alexandria, Egypt, as a suitable place for our Missionary
operations, but that no volunteers had been obtained to occupy the field. The Synod
approved of the selection made by the Board as to the place, but nothing definite was
done, inasmuch as the men were wanting to undertake the work. After a free dis-
cussion, the whole subject was recommitted to the Board.
Erskine College was represented to be in a prosperous condition.
As a preliminary step to the abolishing of the preparatory department in connection
with the (Villege, it was resolved that a committee be appointed to prepare and to
present to next Synod a plan for the organization and support of an Academy in each
of the Presbyteries.
The Synod adjourned to meet at Hopewell, Newton co., Georgia, on the Second
Monday of October, 1860.

J{st0ncitl ^licttl] iof tl]c Associate gcfomcij Ir^sbnttrian dlljurtlj,
HopE\yELL Church is one of the oldest claurclies in Maury Co.,
Tennessee. The elements that entered into its formation came from
Mecklenburg, Co., N. C, and were Scotch Irish Presbyterians by-
descent.
In the years 1806 and 1807, Messrs. John Matthews, James Han-
nah, W. Henderson, John Baldridge, and some others with their fami-
lies crossed tlic bleak mountains that intervene, and located on the
south side of Duck river, having to cut their way through the dense
cane-brakes that covered the country.
In 1810, Mr. Samuel Scott and James Matthews with their fami-
lies joined this little colony. Rev. Samuel Brown, in connection with
the Associate Reformed Synod of the West, came and preached for
this people occasionally for several years, until they could get sup-
plies from the Associate Reformed Synod of the South. In the fall
of 1820, Rev. Isaac Grier, D.D., of Mecklenburg Co., N. C, came out
and regularly organized Hopewell Church, with Messrs. Samuel
Scott, M. Baldridge, James Leech, and Robert Matthews, for ruling
elders, and a membership numbering about thirty-five.
In 1824, Hopewell Church in connection with Union — a Church
located some twenty miles to the N. W., near Williamsport — presented
a call to Rev. R. M. Galloway, a probationer of the First Presbytery
of the Carolinas, which he accepted, and was ordained and installed
pastor of the united churches in May 1825, by Rev. Dr. Isaac Grier,
and Rev. Wm. Blockstocks ; the aforesaid elders constituting the
session, the membership numbering about forty.
In 1830, Messrs. Samuel Hannah, David Ijaldridge, and E. Hen-
derson, were ordained as elders. Again in 1833, in consequence of
the death and removal of several of the older elders, Messrs. Robt.
Craig, James Davis, and Thomas Galloway, were ordained as ruling
elders.
On Friday evening of the 9th of Oct., 1840, Rev. Mr. Galloway
died of consumption, after an illness of several months, and as the
Associate Reformed Synod of the South was to meet at Hopewell on
the Monday following, most of the ministers and elders were present
to attend the funeral on the previous Saturday. Hopewell was then
vacant for several years. In the fall of 1841, a call was presented
to Rev. N. M. Gordon, which he declined. In 1844, Rev. J. K.
Boyce was settled as pastor, but resigned in 1848. The Church was
then vacant for several years, but was furnished with regular supplies.
In the fall of 1854, a call was presented to Rev. John H. Bryson,
son of Rev. Henry Bryson, D.D., a probationer of the Tennessee
Presbytery, and was accepted. On the last day of December, he
Avas ordained and installed, beginning his ministrations on the first
Sabbath of 1855 ; James Davis, Robt. Craig, Thomas Galloway, and
Samuel Hannah, being the ruling elders, and a membership number-

ing fifty -five. In April following, Henry Harris, Esq., James W.
Matthews, Esq., and David Ralston, Esq., were ordained ruling elders.
Under the ministry of the present pastor, the Church has been pros-
pered and blessed much beyond anything in its previous history.
There have been two very remarkable revivals, besides other meetings
of unusual interest. Although there have been several deaths and
removals, the membership has been more than doubled. Tlio present
building, of which we give an engraving, was dedicated on the 5th of
April, 1857, and is one of the most handsome, commodious, and neatly
furnished country churches in the south-west. It is situated on the
" Columbia and Pulaski Turnpike Road," seven miles south of Colum-
bia, Tennessee, in a beautiful grove about the centre of one of the
finest and most charming valleys in Middle Tennessee.
Under the ministrations of the present pastor, the Church has taken
new life and energy, and being favourably located, is vcr}^ largely at-
tended from all the adjacent country. A large Sabbath-school is
kept up, except during the winter months. The membership at pre-
sent is one hundred and twenty, with seven ruling elders, who have
been members of Hopewell Session for the following periods : S. Han-
nah for twenty-nine years ; R. Craig, James Davis, Thomas Galloway,
for twenty-six years ; D. Ralston, J. W. Matthews, and II. Harris,
for four years. Long may Hopewell be blessed and prospered by
the Kino; and Head of Zion.

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR ISSO-ISGO 189
The Committee, Reuben Burrow, d.d., Chairman, reported:
Overture No. I. — From Pennsylvania Presbytery, asking if a
minister supplying two, three, or more congregations, may bring an elder from each con-
gregation, wlien they liave not been united by an act ol' Presbytery. The Committee
recommend : That when a minister is not a pastor, the church or churches he supplies
are each entitled to a representation, but if he is a pastor, then all the churches he
supplies are entitled to but one.
Overture No. II. — From Mission Synod, asking the alteration
of the Synodical line between this and McAdou Synod, so that Platte Presbytery
shall be in McAdou Synod, and St. Louis Presbytery in Missouri Synod ; which altera-
tion was made.
Overture No. Ill, — From Ohio Synod, on a union bctAreen the
Cumberland Presbytery and Evangelical Lutheran denomination. The Committee
recommend : That no action be taken at present.
Overture No. TV. — From Oregon Presbytery, that water baptism
is in all cases a pre-requisite to a participation in the liOrd's Supper. The Committee
recommend : That this question was adjudicated upon by the Assembly of 1858, and
that no further action is required.
Overture No. V. — From Texas Synod, asking the alteration of
the Synodical line, so that portions of Vansant and Henderson counties, in Brazos
Synod, shall be in this Synod, and constitute a part of Bacon Presbytery. The altera
tion was made.
Overture No. VI. — From Trustees of Cane Hill Collegiate In-
stitute, asking the General Assembly, through the Committee of Pnblication, to aid
the Trustees in making good and legal a title to a tract of land left to the Cane Plill
College, Arkansas. The Committee recommend : T'hat the Committee of Publication
be authorized to do so.
CENTRAL ILLINOIS SYNOD.
Rev. George "W. Reynolds moved that the Presbyteries of Deca-
tur, Vandalia, and Foster, be constituted a Synod, to be known as the Central
Sj'nod of Illinois, and to hold its first meeting in Sullivan, Illinois, on Thursday, Oct.
13, 1859. and that Rev. J. B. Logan be the Moderator.
The Committee on the Judiciary Committee, Rev. "W. II, Bald-
ridge, Chairman, report these questions from the First Church, Pittsburgh, Pa. Is
it oiderly for a Pi-esbytery to receive under its care an association of persons collected
by the efforts of a minister, who was at the time of gathering them together under
suspension ? The answer is in the negative. Second, Has a Presbytery the power to
remove suspension from a minister, while a regular appeal is pending before a higher
court ? The answer is also in the negative. Third, Has a suspended minister any right
to exercise any functions of the ministry ? Answer in the negative. Fourth, Is it
orderly for a minister to go into the bounds of a regularly organized congregation, to
collect from its members the material for another congregation ? The answer, it is
liighly improper and disorderly to do so.
'I'hey also report a question from Ilev. L. C. Ransom of Alabama, asking, '' When
a Church member, against whom there is no charge of immoral or irreligious conduct,
and whose character is such Jhat there is no ground for any such charge, requests a
session to erase his name from their Church books, have they a right to grant his re-
quest?" The Committee answer, They have.
A memorial from Texas Synod, asking, Is a minister while holding a letter of re-
moval, still under the jurisdiction of the Presbytery giving such a letter ? The answer
is, He is amenable until he attach himself to another. Second, Is the holder of such
190 THE PRESBYTERIAN' HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1 SCO.
a letter still a member of the Presbytery giving the letter, until he actually joins an.
other Presbytery ? The answer is, that he has no iurther right as a Presbyter in its
council. Third, Is the holder of such a letter, a member of the Synod composed in
part of the Presbytery grauti*.)g such a letter ? The answer is, that he is not.
The Committee on the Narrative of the State of Religion,
Rev. Joel Knight, Chairman, reported : 'I'hat we are happy in reporting that there
is great unanimity of faith, practice, and effort in the ministerial ranks, and also a
great harmony of effort to maintain a living and vital religion. During the year there
has been a cheering exhibition of prosperity in the work of our mission, many glorious
revivals of religion, and many accessions to our Church. The shouts of newborn souls
have gone up to heaven as testimonials of the triumphs of the gospel in the hands of
our ministry. The triumphs should stimulate us to greater efforts in the noble work
of the world's conversion to God, to the cultivation of a stronger faith, a deeper piety
developing itself in good works, until the gospel of our glorious Redeemer sheds its
rays of divine light upon the darkest corners of the earth. Family religion and youth-
ful education are receiving increased attention.
Youf Committee would earnestly recommend : That all the members of our churches
labour to avoid formalism, and all conformity to the world, and a fashionable religion.
The missionary spirit is diffusing itself throughout the Church, and may our entire
membership be imbued with the spirit of the commission of our Redeemer, and with
united efforts say we will preach the gospel to every creature.
The Committee on the Board of Education, Milton Bird, d.d.,
Chairman, reported : 'I'hat an educational spirit is prevailing over our Church, wide-
spread, healthy, and growing. Education in the proper sense of the word, draws out and
gives strength to the powers of soul and body; it imparts to the mind the power to
acquire knowledge, and the art of applying it to wise and good purposes. Religion
and Education mutually act and re act upon each other. Without the Bible, educa-
tion is a [iiilure. Hence to let the Bible be banished from the school, is to be indif-
ferent to every interest of humanity.
The Institutions under the control of the Church are,
Bainbridire ^falo and Female Academy, Indiana.
Bethel College, Tennessee.
Beverly College, Obio.
Cane Hill CoUefre, Arkansas.
Chapel Hill College, Texas.
Cherry Grove Seminary, Illinois.
Clear Sprinc; .\caderay, Tennessee.
Columbia College, Oregon.
Cumberland University, Tennessee.
Cumberland College, Kentucky.
Cumberland Female College, Tennessee.
£wing and Jefferson College, Tennessee.
Greenville Female Institute, Kentucky.
Lagrange College, Texas.
McGee College, Missouri.
Newburgh Academy, Indiana.
Perryville Seminary. Kentucky.
Seminary, Sonoma, California.
Seminary, Larressa, Texas.
Steelville Academy, Missouri.
Union Female College, Mississippi.
Union College, Illinois.
Waynesburgh College, Pennsylvania.
Winchester Female Seminary, Tennessee.
It would be better to encourage co-operative efforts on the part of our Presbyteries
and Synods, to establish a few Church institutions of the highest order, than to divide
means and influence to establish a large number of small Church institutions. Edu-
cational work is important, and belongs jointly to the whole Church ; when they
heartily engage in it, then it will be done up right.
The Committee on the Board of Missions, Rev. H. A. Hunter,
Chairman, reported : That it be recommended to all Presbyteries and Synods having
missions, to place them under the care of the Assembly's Board. That all ministers
and churches observe the anniversary of the Church in 1860, as in 1859. That the
monthly concerts be urged upon the attention of the Church, as the best means to
cultivate a spirit of Christian benevolence. That all churches take up a collection
for missions once a year, and that Presbyteries be enjoined to present a statistical re
port to the Assembly, of the amount raised for benevolent purposes in their bounds.
The receipts during the year have been ^9,353.
On motion of Rev. W. E. Ward, it was resolved, that, whereas, intelligence frop
the missionaries in India has been received, expressing a desire that the first week in
January, 1860, be set apart by all Christendom as a time of prayer for the out-pour
ing of the Holy Spirit, this Assembly hereby recommend the observance of the time
specified, to be devoted to that purpose.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 191
On motion of Milton Bird, d.d., it was resolved tliat the Synods be required t©
ascertain the causes of the Presbyteries failing to send up a statistical report, as or-
dered by the Assembly.
On several motions the thanks of the Assembly were tendered to the citizens of Evans-
ville for their cordial welcome and hospitality. Also to the several churches for the
use of their houses. Also to ilie Moderator, for the dignified and impartial manner
in which lie presided ; and to the Clerks for their attention.
On motion the Moderator, by virtue of the authority delegated to him, dissolved
the Assembly, and required that another Assembly chosen in like manner meet in
Nashville, Tenn., on the third 'J'hursday of May, 1860, at 11 o'clock, A. M.
SMITH PARKS, Clerli. THOMAS B. WILSON, Moderator.
We introduce the following table of the ministers who have rested from their
labours during the year, ending with the last meeting of the General Synod.
The Biographies have been arranged from facts furnished by relatives, Stated Clerks
of Presbyteries, physicians, and others, who were acquainted with those who have
died. We thus give a complete though brief record of their ministerial career.

Calhoun, Thomas P.— The son of Rev. Thomas and Mary (Johnson) Calhoun,
was born in Wilson Co., Tenn., in 1823. He was educated in the Cumberland Uni-
versity, Lebanon, Tenn., and studied Theology in the Seminary at Princeton, N. J.
He was licensed by the Presbytery of Chapman, and ordained in 1852. He was sec-
retary for several years of the Board of Foreign and Domestic Missions of the Cum-
berland Church, and editor of the " Missionary," a periodical of the Church. He
paid considerable attention to teaching. In the winter of 1858 he went up, to
Minnesota, and during his stay, whilst riding out with his wife in a sleigh, his horse
became unmanageable, and running off a bridge, they all fell, and Mr. Calhoun v/as
killed instantly, his wife was also injured.
Mr. C, was a son of Rev. Thos. Calhoun, one of the first ministers in the Cumber-
land Church, and a nephew of Rev. John Provine, and having been carefully trained,
with a cultivated intellect and refined manners, be bid fair to be a very useful minis-
ter to the Church.
He married Miss Elizabeth Lowry, only daughter of Rev. David Lowry, who, with
two children, survives him.
Clayton, Abner S.— Was born in Alabama, Dec. 1, 1802. It was not until Oct.
1842, that he made a profession of religion, which he did at Shiloh, Jefferson Co., Ala-
bama. In the spring of 1843 he became a member of Elyton Presbytery, and in the
fall of 1844, was ordained to preach the Gospel ; he laboured in the bounds of the
Presbytery until 1849, when he removed to Itawamba Co., Miss., where he laboured
faithfully until May 1, 1859, when he died of consumption. As a preacher he was
zealous and successful.
His widow and a large family survive him. Rev. A. B. Bullard preached his
funeral sermon.

It was in tlie year 1841 that a congregation was organized, styled
"the Evansville Congregation of the Cumbei-land Presbyterian
Church," with Wm. Henderson, S. D. Hopkins, and J. C. Henson as
ekiers, though it was not until some ten years later that it enjoyed
the services of a settled pastor, or that a Church edifice Avas erected.
The ladies of the Church at an early day organized a " Sewing Cir-
cle," which met weekly from house to house for nearly six years ; and
it is to their untiring zeal and persevering effort in this way that we
attribute the success of the congregation — so few in number and feeble
in resource — in being able to secure a lot in one of the most desirable
portions of the city, and build thereon a neat and commodious house
of worship. The house is literally a monument to the industry and
self-sacrificing spirit of a few pious women, sincerely and ardently at-
tached to the Church of their choice, and the service of their Master.
And Avhat is vforthy of note, because it is unusual, they had the grati-
fication of knowing that it was entirely paid for before it Avas dedi-
cated to the service of God, or a sermon was preached within its walls.
Their names are Mrs. Henson, Mrs. Mackey, Mrs. Sherwood, Mrs.
Foster, Mrs. Lockhart, Mrs. Bell, Mrs. McLure ; Misses Henson,
Mackey, and Johnston.
Rev. David Darr, and Rev. Wm. Lambert, each supplied the con-
gregation for a short time Avith the word and ordinances ; though be-
fore it had any fixed place of worship. The former still resides with-
in the bounds of the congregation, but has been compelled by an af-
fection of the throat to desist almost entirely from public speaking ;
the latter died shortly after taking charge, in fact, before removing
from the place of his former residence.
In the fall of 1852, Ilev. James Ritchey settled in Evansville, and
assumed the pastoral care of the congregation. The Lord seems to
liave blessed his labours in a good degree, though they were marked
by no special out-pouring of the Spirit. He remained only Uvo A'ears,
but left behind him many Avarm-hearted friends, Avho yfiW ever remem-
ber him as a faithful and devoted servant of God.
Rev. Samuel Jacobs was his successor ; he remained, however, only
little more than a year, Avhen OAving to the ill health of his family, he
AA^as compelled to give up the charge. He removed to Pittsburg, Pa.,
having received a call from a congregation in that place.
For eighteen months after the resignation of Mr. Jacobs, the con-
gregation Averc Avithout a pastor ; Avhen the present incumbent took
charge, about the first of February 1858. He found the congrega-
tion very much scattered, and not a little discouraged, the Sabbath-
school broken up, and some of the members gone off to other churches
in the city. It is thought, hoAvever, that his labours have been pro-
ductive of good, and that the prospects of the congregation never
were so gratifying as at the present time. During the winter just

past, thoy enjoyed a gracious revival of religion, at whicli more than
twenty professed religion, and thirteen nnitcd with the Church. A
weekly prayer meeting was organized, which is sustained Avitli zeal
and profit ; the Sabbatli-school is in a very flourishing condition ; and
the whole economy of the Church is of a character to awaken the live-
liest feelings of gratitude to the Great Head of the Church, for such
a manifest display of his sustaining grace.
The Church edifice was partially destroyed by fire in the summer
of 1858 ; the audience room and upper portion of the building being
entirely consumed. It has since been rebuilt, and very much im-
proved both in appearance and comfort. It stands on the corner of
Chestnut and Second Streets. It will seat between 350 and 400 per-
sons. The audience room is on the second floor, has gallery, and is
lighted Avith gas, and is otherwise finished in good style. It is painted
outside a stone colour. The elders at present are J. C. Henson,
John Hall, and S. D. Hopkins.
The pastor is supported in part by the Board of Missions of the
Cumberland Presbyterian Church ; though it is hoped that at no dis-
tant day it will be self-sustaining. A number of the members living
in the country have the gospel preached twice a month by Rev. J. E.
Bates ; but they keep up the weekly prayer meeting as well as the
Sabbath-school. May such be the case, and may the Great Head of
the Church bless the little vine which he has planted here, and may
it grow, and bud, and blossom, and bear much fruit to the honour
and praise of his most holy name.

portant information. A letter was received from the Reformed Dutch of South
Africa.
The Rev. George H. Fisher, delegate to the General Assembly of
the Presbyterian Church, (0. S.) reported : that he had attended the Sessions at
Indianapolis, It was resolved to continue this fraternal intercourse by a communica-
tion to the two former bodies, and Rev. John DeWitt was appointed as a delegate to
the Greneral Assembly (of 1860) of the Presbyterian Church.
The Committee on the State of Religion, Rev. M. S. Hutton,
Chairman, reported : That they have seldom had more cheering documents than the
reports of the several Synods on this subject. They have a statement from nearly
every Church in our connection, and with hardly an exception the language is joyous
and hopeful. In endeavouring to ascertain the state of religion in our Church, we
must first ask, What does Christ think of the Church ? And secondly, v.'liat the Church
thinks of him ? We know indeed the Lord sees much in us for the forgiveness of
Avhich we daily intercede, but during the past year the light of his countenance seems
to have rested upon her, his truth is proclaimed throughout her borders.
During the year the Church has prayed more, and given more for benevolent pur-
poses, she is active amid her young, seeking to brin? them early to the Saviour. Far
therefore, as she comes short of what she ought to be, deeply as she mourns over her
want of self-sacrifising love, her attitude is cheering and full of promise. She is peni-
tent but grateful, praying for more grace, thanking God and taking courage.
The Stated Clerk reported : That the proposed amendment to the
Form of Administration of the Lord's Supper, having received the approval of seven-
teen Presbyteries, being a majority, the alteration, '' That he although innocent was
condenmed," was constitutionally adopted.
The Committee on Education, Joseph F. Berg, d.d., Chairman,
reported ; That the intelligence concerning the Boards of Education and Sabbath
schools is of the most gratifying character. The number of candidates for the minis-
try is eighty-three, this is a great increase, but the nieaus of education have been sup-
plied to meet the demand.
The Committee on Domestic Missions, Rev. B. C. Taylor, Chair-
man, reported : That the operations of the Board during the year ha. e been highly
blessed. Kiglity churches have been aided. haviuLT the labour of sixty-seven ministers
and missionaries; five hundred and eighty-four professed their faith in Jesus, and one
hundred and forty-four were received on certificate. Four churches have become
self-sustaining during the year. God has shown that he approves our work, and will
ble.ss the efforts of the sons and daughters of Zion in building up his kingdom iu the
•world. 'I'lie receipts during the year have been $16,803 85, a small increase over
the previous year.

208 THE PRESBYTEIHAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.

In 1630, Kilian Van Rensselaer, a merchant of Amsterdam, pur-
chased a tract of land from the Indians, twenty-four miles long by
forty-eight broad, containing 700,000 acres, now lying in Albany,
Rensselaer, and Columbia counties. New York. This gentleman re-
garded the institutions of religion as a very essential element of pros-
perity for his colony, and his first efibrts were directed towards their
establishment. In 1642, he secured the services of the Rev. Johan-
nes Megapolensis, Avho was at that time pastor of two congregations
in Holland.
The call which was sent to him, dated March 22nd, 1642, reads
that, " By the state of navigation, in the East and West Indies, a door
is opened, through the special providence of God, also in New Nether-
lands, (New York,) for the preaching of the Gospel of Jesu!5 Christ,
for the salvation of men." His salary for the six years of pastoral
labours which was stipulated, was 1,100 guilders, (^440) 22J bushels
of wheat, and 2 firkins of butter per annum, for the first three years,
and if his labours were satisfactory to the patroon, he was to receive
an additional sum of 200 guilders per annum for the three succeeding
years. He was also to receive $120 by way of outfit, and a free pas-
sage and board for himself and family to his new field of labour. A
house w^as also to bp provided for him on his arrival at Rcnsselaerswyck.
And in case he was captured by the Dunkirkers on the passage, mea-
sures wore to be taken immediately for his ransom, and a certain sum
allowed monthly for his support, and in case of his death before the
expiration of the six years, provision was to be made for the support
of his family till the end of that term. These just and liberal terms
are enumerated to show that the head of the colony duly estimated
the value of religion, and the services of a pious and learned ministry.
Dominie Megapolensis reached this country on the 11th of August
1642, and entered at once upon his duties, which he faithfully dis-
charged, labouring not only among the colonists, but took great in-
terest in preaching to the Indians, many of whom resorted to Fort
Orange for the purpose of trade, and from whom the Dominie learned
their language, and preached the Gospel to them several years before
Eliot began his labours among the Indians of New England.
The first house of Avorship in Albany Avas built for him. It stood
near the Fort, on what is now called Church street. A plain wooden
building thirty-four feet long, and nineteen Avide, furnished with a
pulpit ornamented Avith a canopy, pews for the magistrates and
Church officers, and nine benches for the people. In this simple
structure the congregation worshipped thirteen years.
After the departure of Dominie Megapolensis in 1649, the Church
remained vacant until 1652, Avhen they called the Rev. Gideon
Schaats, a native of Holland, and Avho remained Avith them until 1682.
In 1656 a new house of Avorship Avas erected at the corner of what

bj Rutgci* Jacobson, and one of the magistrates of the citj, and the
ancestor of the venerable lady now a member of this Churcli, (Mrs.
Blandina Dudley,) "who has become distinguished by her munificent
encouragement of astronomical science. They sent to Holland for
an oaken pulpit and a bell, both of which arrived. The old pulpit is
still preserved, an interesting and valuable memorial of the past. In
1675, Kev. Mr, Niewenhuysen was called as a colleague with Mr.
Schaats, but the time of his departure is not upon record. In 1683,
by reason of the increasing years of Mr. Schaats, the Classis of Am-
sterdam sent out as his assistant Rev. Godfrcidus Dellius, who Avas a
man of faith and piety.
There are no records of the Church prior to this date, but in this .
year (1683) Mr. Dellius began a register of baptisms, which has been
continued to be kept with much accuracy until the present day. The
Church was large and flourishing, the list of members in 1683 is still
preserved in the handwriting of Mr. Dellius, it amounts to between six
and seven hundred. After a period of sixteen years, Mr. Dellius left
the Church and sailed for Holland in 1699.
His successor was Rev. Johannes Petrus Nucella, who remained
until 1702. In the following year. Rev. Johannes Lydius commenced
his labours, and like his predecessors interested himself in behalf of
the Indians. He died March 1st, 1710. After remaining vacant for
two years, the Rev. Petrus Van Driessen Avas called to the pastoral
charge of the Church. During his ministry a new edifice Avas erected.
It Avas built of stone, AA'itli a steep pyramidal roof, sm*mounted Avith a
weathercock, and Avas for its day an imposing building.
It was erected around the old Church, which Avas taken down and
carried out piecemeal after the walls of the new building were raised
and covered. The services of public AA'orship Avere only interrupted
three Sabbaths by reason of this removal. The new Church Avas of
massive architecture and solid AA'orkmanship. Each of its Avindows
contained the coat of arms of some one of the families of the congre-
gation, in stained glass. Those in possession of the Dudley, Van-
Rensselaer, and Wendell families, are in excellent preservation.
The seats around the Avails Avere occupied by the respectable old
burghers and heads of families. On the Avest side Avei-e the seats for
the Governor and Magistrates of the city. On the right and left of
the pulpit AA'ere the members of the consistory. Conspicuous among
them was the voorlezer or clerk, a very important functionary, who
opened the services of the Sabbath by reading a feAV texts of Scrip-
ture, the ten commandments, a chapter in the Bible, and singing of a
Psalm, the number of AAdiich Avas displayed on a tablet hung at the
side of the pulpit, in sight of the congregation.
The seats in the body of the house Avere occupied by the females.
The large galleries Avhicli extended on three sides of the house Avere
for the younger male members of the congregation.
It Avas the custom in those days for the minister to enter during the
singing, and before ascending into the pulpit, to stand a moment at
the foot of the stairs in silent prayer. In front of the desk of the
pulpit Avas placed the hour glass, and the dominie gave them good

measure, as he rarely closed his discourse before the last sands had
fallen. In 1720, the congregation applied to Hon. Peter Schuyler,
President, and the rest of his majesty's council of the Province of
New York, for an act of incorporation, which was granted to the
Church, under the title of the " minister, elders, and deacons of the
Reformed Protestant Dutch Church, in the city of Albany," bearing
date August 10th, 1720. In 1733, the congregation called as col-
league Rev. Cornelius Van Schie.
After a period of twenty-six years devoted to the pastoral care of
the congregation, Rev. Petrus Van Driessen died on the 1st of Feb-
ruary, 1738. Rev. C. Van Schie, his colleague, survived him until
August 15, 1744.
In 174-5, the Rev. Theodorus Frclinghuysen entered upon his duties
as pastor, his manners were frank and popular, he laboured for fifteen
years, Avhen he left for Holland in 1700, and was lost overboard on
the passage.
His successor was Rev. Eilardus Westerlo, who received his call
whilst at the University at Groningen ; after deliberation, and with
the advice of his instructors at the University, he accepted it. He was
examined, approved, and installed in Holland as minister of this
Church in March, 1760, and in the fall of the same year began his
duties. During his pastorate, the question was decided, severing the
connection which had existed between the ecclesiastical courts of Hol-
land and the churches in this country. Dr. Westerlo took a promi-
nent part in this matter, in favour of the separation which Avas made
in 1772. During the Revolutionary war he was an ardent patriot,
and at that critical period, just prior to Burgoyne's surrender, he held
special religious services in the Church daily for a week, imploring
the interposition of God in behalf of the army.
The importance of introducing religious services In English (for up
to this time all the services of the Church Avere in the Dutch) was felt,
and Dr. Livingstone was called in 1780, as colleague, to preach in
that language ; he declined the invitation however, and in 1782, Dr.
Westerlo began to preach half the day in English himself. In this year
Washington visited Albany and had a public reception. Dr. Westerlo
delivered the address as minister of the Church and president of the
consistory.
He died December 26, 1790, in the 53rd year of his age. Three
years previous to his death, in 1787, Rev. John Bassett was called
as his colleague ; he remained pastor until December 1804, when he
gave up his charge. Upon his retirement from the pastoral duties
of the Church, the consistory voted to pay him an annuity of $562 50,
for the term of his natural life. During Mr. Bassett's pastorate the
congregation had increased so much that it was decided to build a
new Church edifice, the corner stone of which was laid June 12, 1797,
and it was dedicated to the worship of Almighty God, January 27,
1799. The dedicatory sermons were preached by Rev. Mr. Bassett
in the morning, from Psalm Ixxxiv. 1, 2 ; and in the afternoon by
Rev. John Barnet Johnson, from the 4th verse of the same Psalm.
Mr. Johnson was at this time the colleague pastor, having been called

in 179(), and remained as such until 1802, when he removed to
Brooklyn. After the removal of Mr. Bassett in 1804, the Church
remained vacant until 1805, Avhen the Rev. John Melancthon Brad-
ford was called, whilst pursuing his theological studies with Rev. Dr.
Ashbel Green of Philadelphia. Having accepted the call, he was or-
dained to the office of the Gospel ministry, and installed pastor of
the Church. This relation existed for a period of fifteen years, during
which time the Second Church was organized. As early as 1799, the
project of setting off a colony and building another Church was
thought of, and in April 30, 1806, the corner stone of the Second or
Middle Dutch Church was laid, and the building after many delays
was completed in 1810.
In 1813, Rev. John De Witt was called as colleague pastor, with
Dr. Bradford, which he accepted. In 1815 it was deemed advisable
that the collegiate form of the Church should be abandoned, and that
two distinct congregations should be formed, each Avith its own edifice,
pastor, and consistory. This was carried into effect in an amicable
spirit. An equitable division was made of the Church property, the
two pastors drew lots for Church edifices, and the congregations con-
nected themselves with one or the other, according to their individual
choice or convictions of duty.
Rev. Dr. DeWitt became pastor of the Second or South Church.
Rev. Dr. Bradford remained with the Old Church, which was there-
after known as the North Dutch Church. Upon his retirement in
1820, the pulpit remained vacant until August 31, 1822, when John
Ludlow, D.D., then a Professor of Biblical Literature and Ecclesiastical
History at New Brunswick, N. J., was called, and in July 1823, he
entered upon his duties as pastor.
In 1828 the consistory erected a new consistory room, and altered
the old one into a parsonage, which after several additions and improve-
ments furnishes a spacious and delightful residence to the pastor of
the Church.
Dr. Ludlow left in 1833, and the pulpit was again vacant until
1835, when the Rev. Thomas E. Vermilye was called, who remained
until 1839. After another vacancy of two years, Rev. Duncan Ken-
nedy was installed pastor, December 22, 1841 ; he remained until
1855, when he removed to the Second Presbyterian Church, Troy.
The pulpit remained vacant until November 19, 1856, when Ebenezer
P. Rogers, d.d., was installed. Dr. Rogers had previously been pas-
tor of the Seventh Presbyterian Church, Philadelphia, and was well
known as one of the most eloquent preachers in that city. The
Church was completely renovated in its interior decorations during
the year 1858, and is considered one of the finest Church edifices in
the denomination. The congregation consists of 200 families, and
487 communicants ; their contributions during the past year were for
all purposes, $23,176 GO.

man. Treasurer's statement showed the revenue of last year from stocks and bonds,
inclusive of balance, to be S36,407 17 ; Disbursements for the pavment of ministers,
$.35,757 17; Ex{)enses, $.30 92 ; Total, $35,788 09. Balance, .$019 08. Congrega-
tional collections during the j-ear amount to .$926 59.
It was resolved to recommend the Board to conmience operations in September,
for the purpose of augmenting the fund by subscriptions and donations throughout
the Church ; the reason assigned being the rapid increase of ministers.
II. Synod Fund. For defraying expenses incurred by the Synod.
John Cameron, Esq., 'J'orouto, Treasurer. Balance on hand from 1857, $141 82 ;

Balance, $9 30. Liabilities, S198 38>,<. Arrears, $136.
The Synod altered the scale of assessments on sessions, to secure an increase of
revenue.

tees reported a large increase in the number of students. The state of tiie roll was as
follows: Faculty of Theology, 11 ; Arts, 53; Medicine, 79. Total, 143. JJeing the
greatest number ever matriculated in one year. 'I'here were 12 from the Synods of
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick. Dr. George Lawson of Edinburgh, Scitlland, had
been elected Professor of Chemistry and Natural History.
The report bore testimony to the ability and success of all the Professors. 'I'hc
rapid increase in the number of students had necessitated the erection of additional
buildings. The temporal necessities of many students for the ministry, occasioned
much anxiety, and the hope was expressed that the Church would largely increase
the Bursary Fund. A sum of $21,883 67, is required to complete the puichase of
grounds and buildings. The Treasurer's account current showed receipts from all
sources, including balance of last year, to be $27,245 10 ; Expenses for all purposes,

cerning 28 churches, and 9 manses. In some cases, title deeds had been lost or mis-
laid ; in others, they were held by parties who had left the Church.
It was suggested that an Act of Parliament should be asked to alter the hiws of the
Province, so as to provide for uniformity in the mode of holding propi^rty, and appoint-
ing managers. Tiie Committee were instructed to prepare a general stalemrnt of the
property of the Church throughout the Province, to be submitted to next meeting.

bath, and praying for the abolition of all labour in the public woiks and govern-
ment departments on the Lord's day ; that a bill presented to the last session of Par-
liament for the relief of Post office employers from Sabbath labour, was lost by the
small majority of two ; and that there is both great need and great encouragement
for ministers to call the attention of congregations to the claims of the Sabbath, and
for all Cliristians who love the Sabbath, to use their influence in getting Railway and
Steamboat Companies to cease their traffic on that holy day. The Connnittee were
thanked and continued.

surer, Jol'.n Paton, Esq., Kingston, reported : 'I'hat 16 orphans, one being a moni-
tress, are supported by this Mission, in the orphanages of the Scottish Ladies' Asso-
ciation for female education in India, at Calcutta, Madras, and Bombay, and that
during the year, the receipts for their maintenance amounted to §308. Most grati-
fying accounts had been received of all the orphans ; one girl, Ruth Toronto, had
been baptized, and another is now a candidate. On the first of September, 1858, the
Canadian girls' day school was opened at Calcutta, and is .supported almost entirely
by the offerings of Sabbath-school children in (Canada. It is under the superinten-
dence of Mi.ss Hebron, who suggested the enterprise. A native Christian and his
wife are employed as teachers, and by last accounts, 35 children were attending, with
the prospect of more.

In iiccordance with the opinion of a majority of Presbyteries, the Synod rejected an
overture proposing to give t>essions permission to elect representative eiders from other
sessions within the bounds of the Synod, and instructed the Committee on Standing
Orders to report by Bill or Overtuie to next session, on the whole subject of the elec-
tion of representative eiders, and the attendance of ministers on meetings of the Su-
preme Court.

Ottawa is a city, situated on the river Ottawa, on the boundary
between Eastern and Western Canada. It is 87 miles from the con-
fluence of the Ottawa with the St. Lawrence, and 120 miles from the
city of Montreal, and about the same distance from Kingston, on Lake
Ontario. It was originally named Bytown, from its founder, Colonel
By, an officer of the Royal Engineers, whom the Imperial Government
commissioned in 1825 to superintend the construction of the Rideau
Canal. In 1854 Bytown Avas created a city, and its name changed
to what it now bears. It is situated in the centre of a fertile country,
which is being rapidly developed ; and possessing as it does water
power of immense extent, with every facility for intercourse with all
parts of Canada and the United States, there can be no doubt, but
that at no distant period it will become a place of important manufac-

turing operations. It has been selected by Her Mnjcsty the Queen,
as the future metropolis of the United Canadas.
In St. Andrew's Church, Ottawa, the Synod of the Presbyterian
Church of Canada, in connection with the Church of Scotland, held
its annual meeting in May 1859. With the exception of a small
wooden edifice occupied by the Wesleyan Methodists, but which has
since ceased to exist, this Church was the first built in Ottawa. It
was opened for divine service in 1828. Originally it was a stone
building 55 by 45 feet. But to meet the wants of a gradually increas-
ing congregation, it was enlarged in 1854, and although void of all
architectural beauty and ornament on the exterior, is nevertheless a
neat, commodious, and in every way comfortable Church Avitliin.
The first minister of this Church was the Rev. John Cruickshanlc,
now a minister of a Parish in the North of Scotland, lie was suc-
ceeded in 1844 by the Rev. Alexander Mackid, now minister at Gode-
rich, Canada West. Mr. Mackid was succeeded by the Rev. William
Duric, who died after a very brief incumbency. Mr. Durie was suc-
ceeded by the present minister, the Rev. Alexander Spence. lie was
inducted to the charge on the 27th July, 1848, having been ordained
by the Church of Scotland on the 22nd of February, 1841, as first
Presbyterian minister in the Island of St. Vincent, West Indies.

220 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
UXIVEllSITY OF QUEEN'S COLLEGE, KINGSTON, CANADA WEST.
Queen's Collroe was established by the Synod of the Presbyterian Church of
Canada, in connection with tlie Church of Scotland, and was incorporated by an Act
of the Parliament of Upper Canada, as " The University at Kingston." Tliis Act, how-
ever, was afterwards jsro^orma disallowed, in order that the College might be consti-
tuteil by Royal Charter, which was granted in the following year, October 10, 1841,
as the " Queen's College at Kingston," '' with the style and privileges of an Univer-
sity," and power to confer degrees in the several Arts and Faculties. No reli-
gious test or qualification is required of persons matriculated, or admitted to a degree,
"save only that all persons admitted within the said College to any degree in Divin-
ity, shall make the same declarations and subscriptions as are required of persons ad-
mitted to any degree in Divinity in the University of Edinburgh." The management
of the affairs of the University is entrusted to twenty-seven Trustees, twelve clergymen,
and fifteen laymen, the former appointed by the Synod, and the latter by election by
the remanent lay Trustees, from a list of fit and proper persons returned by the con-
gregations, within the bounds of the Synod. In 1846 the property originally vested
in the Corporation created by the disallowed Act of 1846. was transferred to the Cor-
poration of Queen's College by an Act of Parliament. The Institution is supported by
an income from endowment, a grant from the Legislature, and a grant of £300 stg.,
($1500) from the Colonial Committee of the Churcli of Scotland. By the Charter, its
income may be £15,000 stg.. ($75,000) per annum.
Tiie Classes in Arts and Divinity were opened in 1842, and were tauglit from that
period in buildings rented for the purpose, until in 1853, a large and substan-
tial edifice, to which six acres of land were attached, was purchased by the Trustees
for their reception, at a cost of £6000 cur., ($24,000.) Since then, additional ac-
commodations having been found necessar}', another building has been erected by them
on the College grounds, at an expenditure of upwards of £2500 cur., ($10,000.)
In 1854 theFaculty of Medicine was con.«tituted, and the Medical classes opened.
Altogether apart from the College, but under the superintendence of the Profes.=ors,
B the College Preparatory School, where 60 pupils receive elementary training of a
higher kind to enable them to enter the College classes ; the whole number thus re-
ceiving instruction in connection with the College during 1859, being 203.

226 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
Henderson, Alexander— Was born in Alloa, Scotland, May 11, 1800. Ho
was brought up in the congi-egation of Rev. J. Muckersie. In due time he entered
the University of Edinburgh, and subsequently studied divinity under the late Dr.
Dick of Glasgow ; having finished his studies and passed through the usual Presbyte-
rial trials, he was licensed by the Presbytery of Stirling, and the year following he
was ordained as minister in Here he laboured over twenty years,
when he emigrated to Canada, and became pastor of the Pakenham and Arnprior
churches, in Lanark Presbytery, taking up his abode near the village of Fitzroy Har-
bour ; labouring with great zeal and prudence, he formed two other churches, viz :
Tarbolton and Fitzroy Harbour, and resigning Pakenham and Arnprior churches, he
devoted all his time to the others. A comfortable house of worship was erected at
Tarbolton, and one in progress at Fitzroy Harbour, when he was taken ill, and died
Oct. 23, 1858. He married Miss Margaret Eadie in 1832, who, with three sons and
a daughter, survives him. He was an occasional contributor to the pres.s, and was the
author of a poem called The Pilgrim.

In 1838 this churcli was commenced hj a little band of adherents
to the secession cause, and was oro;anizcd in connection with the United
Secession church of Scotland in December of that year, llcv. John
Jennings, at that time just arrived in the country, supplied their pulpit.
The first place of meeting was in a large rented room, where they
remained for six months. They then hired a Baptist Church in
Stanley street; next rented a church which they afterwards bought
from the Episcopal Methodists, then about disbanding. Here they
worshipped until 1848, when they erected their present building on
Bay street, corner of Richmond. The church is built entirely of
stone for the basement; and white brick with stone facings of buttresses,
&c., for the upper part. It is of pure Gothic structure. The base-
ment is divided into a vestry, a library room, and lecture room, capa-
ble of containing about four hundred persons. The upper part holds
nine hundred, there being the floor and gallery on both sides and one
end, the pulpit at the other of a beautiful Gothic design, and the roof
high, avched, and panelled. It is outside 85 feet long by 52 feet 6
inches wide ; the interior is 75 feet long by 48 feet wide.
The congregation takes a deep and liberal interest in Foreign Mis-
sions, particularly the one supported by the sister church (the Pres-
byterian Church of Nova Scotia) at Aneiteum and other islands in the
New Hebrides. The names of the present elders are Messrs. James
Robertson, John Henry, James Alexander, and Jay Humphrey. The
Sabbath-school numbers generally from eighteen to twenty classes
besides two Bible classes, one for young men and the other for young
ladies, both very well attended ; the one conducted by the pastor,
and the other by his wife.
The present pastor. Rev. Dr. Jennings, after preaching for some
time, was formally inducted into the ministry in 1839, and has ever
since been faithful in the discharge of his duties. A warm feeling of
attachment has grown up between him and his people, which shows
itself in many ways. A few years ago the congregation presented
him with the title deeds of a commodious and well-finished dwelling
for himself and family. This surely indicates a healthy state both for
pastor and people.

associations; when it was agreed, that without committing itself to any opinion re-
specting the organizations from which the memorials emanate, they hereby renew
their testimony against the enormous evils of intemperance. That Synod rejoice in
the passing by the Legislature of a Sabbath Liquor Law, and that Synod recommend
to Presbyteries and Sessions to have special regard to the sources of intemperance
within their respective bounds, and that a Standing Committee on Temperance, Rev.
John Smith, Chairman, be appointed.
The Committee on the Union with the United Presbyterian Church,
reported : and after a discussion which extended through several sessions, it was
agreed that Synod having heard the report of Committee, approve of their diligence,

presented to them, the Synod regard the same on the whole as a satisfactory basis, and
one which holds out the prospect of a harmonious and honourable union, and that
Synod resolve to proceed to the consideration of the different articles contained in
that basis. The discussion was renewed and continued for several sessions, when it
was resolved, that the basis of Union as a whole, be now approved, and transmitted
to Presbyteries and Sessions, with instructions to report to Synod through the Commit-
tee on Union, Rev. Robert Ure, Chairman, on or before Nov. 1, 1859.

^Md) of Cooke's Irtsbntcniiu Cljurtb, Toronto, (B. Wl
The first Presbyterian minister settled in Toronto Ay<as tlic Rev.
James Harris, a licentiate of the Presbytery of iNIonaghan, Ireland.
In 1821 a brick Church capable of accommodating about 250 persons,
was built for his congregation on a lot of ground presenterl by his
father-in-law, Jesse Ketchum, Esq., now of Buffalo, N. Y. The con-
gregation Avas then connected with the United Synod of Canada.
After the disruption in 1844, the members united Avith the party who
sympathized with the Free Church of Scotland, and Mr. Harris re-
sitrned his chars-e. The united confrresation chose as his successor
Dr. Robert Burns of Paisley, Scotland. The old Church Avas en-
larged, but AA^as destroyed by fire. In its room Knox's Church Avas
erected, and opened for public worship in 1848. This is an exceed-
ingly beautiful building. It is built of Avhite brick, in Gothic style,
and has a spire 180 feet high. Its exterior dimensions are 104 by
70 feet. It accommodates 1250 sitters. Dr. Burns was appointed
Professor of Church History in 1856. His successor is the Rev.
A. Topp, formerly of Edinburgh, Avho Avas inducted in Sept. 1858.
In 1851, a second Presbyterian Church in connection Avith the
(Free) Presbyterian Church of Canada Avas organized. Its first stated
pastor Avas the Rev. Robert Irvine, formerly of St. John's, N. B., and
now of Hamilton, C. W. His successor AA'as the Rev. AndrcAv Mar-
shall, formerly of Cladymore, Ireland, who resigned his charge in
consequence of sickness, Avhicli terminated fatally in November, 1857.
The congregation assumed the name of Cooke's Church, as a tribute
of respect to Dr. Cooke of Belfast, and after meeting in various
places proceeded to the erection of a permanent Church, Avhich Avas
opened for public Avorship in July, 1858, the dedication sermon Avas
preached by Wm. BlackAvood, D.D., of Philadelphia. The present
pastor is the Rev. William Gregg, formerly of Belleville, C. W.
Cooke's Church is built on the corner of Queen and Montreal
Streets, and is a A-ery beautiful building. Its Avails are of Avhito brick,
and it is in the Lombard style. It has two towers and spires in front.
Its exterior dimensions are 102 by 55 feet, the total frontage, includ-
ing the tOAvers is 6Q feet. It can accommodate 1050 sitters. The
basement is of the Avhole size of the Church, and is used for Sabbath-
school and Avcek day lectures. The Elders are, John Rogers, Joseph
Macauley. The Trustees are, G. L. Beardmore, Chairman., C. S.
Patterson, Secretary, A. Jardine, Treasurer, Hugh Miller, John Carr,
James Rusk, Fred. CallaAvay, John Greenlees, John McKee. The
cost of the building Avas $18,000, exclusive of the site, Avhich is valued
at $4,000.
The other Presbyterian churches of the city are, St. Andrew's
Church, Dr. Barclay minister, in connection Avith the Presbyterian
Church of Scotland ; Bay Street United Presbyterian Church, Dr.
Jennings pastor ; Gould Street United Presbyterian Church, Dr. Tay-
lor pastor ; and the Reformed Presbyterian Church, Rev. Robert
Johnston pastor. Each of the first three could accommodate about

Rev. John J. Baxter read the Report of the Committee on Col-
portii'je ; from wliicli it appeared that during the past year, 4,356 volumes Iiave been
added to llie stock, and lliat bn.^iness had been conducted as usual, with the e.\ceptioii
that during part of the year the Colporteurs have been paid, not by a salary, but by
a percentage on their sales, security being given for the safety of the property in their
hands.
On motion, it was agreed that the books to be circulated by the Committee on Col-
portage, must iu all cases be iu accordance with the standards of our Church.
Rev. George Patterson read the Report on the Home Missions.
It showed that three missionaries had left the control of the Board by ordination and
induction into pastoral charges. Three have been licensed as preachers ; one minister
by demission of his pastoral charge has been placed under their direction ; one has
recently arrived from Scotland ; and that, upon an average, seven missiouaries have
been employed during the year.
Rev. E. Ross, the Secretary of the Seminary Board, read their

giving a full account of the proceedings of the United Conimittees, and submitting
the basis of Union they liad agreed to. Recommend. Extracis were read fiom the
minutes of the Synod of the Free Church, N. S., from wliich it appeared that that
Synod iiad with entire unanimity adopted the basis of Union. After discussion, it
was resolved, tliat this basis of Union with Formula, and other relative documents be
sent down to Presbyteries and Sessions, to report to the Synod next year.
Rev. James Bayne, Secretary of the Board of Foreign Missions,
read their Annual Report, which was in a high degree encouraging, and admirably
adapted to stimulate the members of the Church to prayer and increased efforts in
behalf of the Mission. They have accepted Mr. Samuel F. Johnston as the fourth
missionary to the New Hebrides,
Rev. John McCurdy read the Report of the Committee to -whom
had been referred the replies of Presbyteries and Sessions on the resolution of 1858,
to exclude from the communion of the Church tiio.-e who are engaged in tiie liquor
traffic. Two Presbyteries reported against exclusion by Synodical act, and in i'avour
of resolution of 1853. 'I'wo Presbyteries gave no opinion ; 25 Sessions reported, 8 in
favour of unconditional exclusion, and 12 against exclusion. After discussion, the
resolution of 1858 was re-approved, in which it was declared that the Synod recog-
nize the right and duty of Sessions to exclude from Church fellowship, after faitliful
dealing, thdse who persist in the practice.
Rev. J. L. Murdock protested against the decision.

Keir, John — The son of.Tolin and Christiana Keir, was born at Bucldyvie, Stir-
linirshiir, tScotland, February 2, 1780. Wlien about a year old his parents removed
to lUiidernock, near Glasgow, and became members of Duke street Church, Glasgow,
in connection with the Anli-burgher Synod. lie received the usual educational
training, wliich he did at the University of Glasgow. He studied Theolngy under
He".-. A. Bruce, then Professor of Theology in the General Associate Synod : whilst
studying 'I'heology he also taught school ; having completed his studies, he was licensed
by the Presbytery of Glasgow- in 1807, and preached in several vacancies. In 1808
he was appoiiited as a missiouary to Nova Scotia, B. P. Previous to his departure,
he married Miss Mary Burnet. The last two Sabbaths lie spent in his native land
were at Paisley and "Greenock, where liberal contributions were taken up to defray
the expenses of his mission. He arrived at Pictou, N. S., in September, and preached
at Princetown, P. E. L, and the adjacent settlements, also at St. Peters. In the
spring of 1809, he preached at Halifax and Merigomish. 'I'he churches of Princetown
and St. Peters, Prince Edward Island, made out a call, June 19, 1809, and having
accepted it, he at once set to work ; owing to the disorganized state of the cor.grega-
tion, his ordination did not take place imtil June 1810. At this time Mr. Keir was
the only Presbyterian minister on the Island, and for some time laboured not only in
his own congregation, but as a missionary through the whole Island. Other ministers
joined him, so\hat in 1821 the PresbyteVy of P. E. I., was formed, he being the first
Moderator. In 1843 he was appointed Professor of Theology to the Presbyterian
Church of Nova Scotia, in which capacity he sustained himself as a lecturer, who
left a deep impression upon the minds of the students, of the duties and responsibilities
of the sacred office.
In 1858, after a ministry of fifty years, his friends lield a jubilee at Princetown,
which was highly gratifying ; about 2000 guests were entertained at a tea meeting, and
it was sunpo.sed"tlmt nearly 3000 persons were present ; the proceeds after all exi)enscs
were paid, amounted to over $400. On Sept. 15, 1858, whilst passing along the
street, lie was taken ill, and he lost all recollection ; some friends took him home, but
congestion of the brain set in, and he died on the 22nd, in the 78th year of his age.
His death was a source of sorrow all over P. E. I., and at his funeral all classes
turned out to pay a tribute of respect to the memory of one they loved so well.
Ross, Hllffh — ^^"^as born in Rothiemurchns, Tnverness-shire, Scotland, in 1797. He
was educated at the parish school of Abernethy. When about thirteen, his father re-
moved to Aberdeen, where the family joined the Gaelic chapel, in connection with the
Churcli of Scotland. In 1813 they emigrated to Nova Scotia, settling in Pictou,
and joined Rev. Dr. MacGregor's Church. Hugh remained in a mercantile house in
Halifax, but when the Pictou Academy was opened, he became one of its first stu-
dents. AVhen he finished his Academic curriculum, he studied 'I'heology with Rev.
Dr. McCullough, he was licensed by Pictou Presbytery in 1823, and being able to
preach in Gaelic, he was soon after ordained as an evangelist, and spent some time in
the Island of Cape Breton. In 1827 he became pastor of the churches of Tatama-
gouchee and New Annan. He subsequently became pastor of Genrgetowu, and
Murray Ilabour, where he was labouring at' the time of the disruption. He was
Moderator of the Synod at the time, and gave in his adherence to the Free Church.
He died suddenly at his residence in 'i'atamasroiichee, Dec. 1, 1858, of heart disease.
He left a widow and eight children. He was a man of good talents, and of unaffected
kiuduess of heart.

The Synod met in the St. John Presbyterian Church, St. John,
N. B., on Wednesday, June 15, 1859, at 7J o'clock, P. M., according
to adjournment, and in pursuance to the provisions of an Act of As-

the several congregations connected therewith." After prayer and
praise, the retiring Moderator, Rev. Wm. Bennett, preached from
1 Corinthians, i. 21. " For after that, in the wisdom of God, the
world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of
preaching to save them that believe." After the discourse the ses-
sions were constituted by prayer. The following were

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-18G0. 243
THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND;
^ • c » »
The Protestant Reformation in Scotland was recognized by Act
of Parliament in 1560 : and in December of that year, the first Gene-
ral Assembly met, consisting of twelve ministers, John Knox being
one, and thirty-two ruling elders. The General Assembly appointed
Knox and other five ministers to draw up a Form of Church Govern-
ment and Discipline, which in a few weeks after they presented to the
Privy Council. This Document, entitled the " First Book of Disci-
pline," contained some proposals which in certain quarters were not
relished, particularly regarding the disposal of the ecclesiastical reve-
nues, and it was not judicially ratified.
. Meantime the settlement of ministers of the Protestant religion, and
other arrangements for the national establishment of the Protestant
Church, proceeded. By Act of Parliament, 1567, it was declared
" that the examination and admission of ministers within this realm
be only in the power of the Kirk, now openly and publicly professed
within the same," "the presentation of laic patronages being always
reserved to the just and ancient patrons."
The General Assembly continued to meet, usually twice in the year,
and for a time, during the unsettled state of the Church, Superinten-
dents were appointed over difierent districts, whose office it was to su-
perintend and set in order all ecclesiastical affairs within their several
districts. At length, the General Assembly in 1580 passed an Act
condemning Episcopacy ; and thereafter Presbyteries began to be es-
tablished. The ^'■Second Booh of Discipline^" which was prepared in
1578, was registered in the Acts of Assembly in 1581, as approved
by the Church : and by the Statute of 1592, which is regarded as the
fundamental charter of the Establishment of Presbytery, that part of
the Second Book of Discipline was formally enacted, wliich declared
the Government of the Church of Scotland to be by Kirk Sessions,
Presbyteries, Synods, and General Assemblies.
Early in the following century, under the influence of James VI.,
whose maxim was, "No Bishop, ISTo King," Bishops were again ap-

pointed as constant Moderators of Presbyteries, the free election of
uieinbcrs of the General Assembly was interfered with, various pre-
latical customs and forms were re-introduced, and even sanctioned
by General Assemblies, and ultimately the meetings of the General
Assembly were discontinued.
In the reign of Charles I., the reaction against Episcopacy became
so strong, that a meeting of General Assembly was held in 1638, to
which the King sent a Commissioner, who did not, however, give his
sanction to all its proceedings. The General Assembly deposed the
Bishops and declared Prelacy to be abolished in the kingdom.
The General Assembly continued to meet annually, a Representa-
tive from the King being usually present, during the subsequent trou-
bled years of Charles' reign, and in 1643 sent Commissioners to the
Assembly of Divines at Westminster. In 1047, the Confession of
Faith and Larger and Shorter Catechisms prepared by the Westmin-
ster Assembly were approved and ratified by Act of Assembly, and
subsequently by Act of Parliament in 1649, and, having been again
ratified by Act of Parliament in 1690, continue to be the authorita-
tive standards of doctrine in the Church of Scotland.
Cromwell was no friend to Presbytery, and did not allow the Gene-
ral Assembly to meet : the Presbyterian ministers were at the same
time divided into two parties vehemently hostile to each other, the
llesolutioners and Protesters, — the former concurring in a Resolution
permitting persons who had been opposed to the Presbyterian cause,
on professing repentance, to be employed in behalf of Charles II,,
and the latter protesting against it as a dereliction of principle.
When Charles II. was restored to the throne in 1660, Episcopacy
was re-introduced. Presbyteries were prohibited to meet, and about
three hundred of the ministers were driven from their charges.
After the accession of William and Mary, the Presbyterian form
of Church Government was restored : by Act of Parliament 1690 it
was declared that "Prelacy and the superiority of any office in the
Church above Presbyters, is and hath been a great and unsupportable
grievance and trouble to this nation, and contrary to the inclinations
of the generality of the people ever since the Reformation, and there-
fore ought to be abolished:" and the Act of 1592, establishing Pres-
bytery, was revived and ratified ; and those ministers yet alive who
had been outed in 1662 were restored to their states.
From that date, the Church of Scotland has continued unchanged
in doctrine and government, to the present time.
At different periods. Secessions, more or less numerous, have taken
place from the Church of Scotland.
At the Revolution Settlement in 1690, a number of private Chris-
tians did not accede to the Church, deeming the manner in which the
Church was established inconsistent with the principles they had held,
and especially with the National Covenants b}^ which they were re-
quired to seek the abolition of Prelacy in England and Ireland, as
well as Scotland. These Seceders, commonly called Cameronians,
were subsequently joined by a few ministers who had at first acceded
to the Church, and constituted the body which has since continued
under the name of the jRefonned Presbyterian Synod.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860- 245
A Secession took place in 1734 — 1740. Ebcnczer Erskine and
other ministers were dissatisfied witli the proceedings of Church judi-
catories in the settlement of ministers, and complained also of laxity
in checking what they deemed erroneous doctrines : and considering
that sufficient liberty was not allowed them to express their dissent,
and to decline co-operating with the Church Courts, they left the
Church. The body founded by them was afterwards divided into the
Burgher and Anti-Burghcr Synod, who were re-united in the present
century, and, afterwards coalescing with the Relief Synod, formed
what is now called the United Presbyterian Church.
The Relief Synod arose out of the deposition in 1752 of Mr.
Thomas Gillespie for refusing to comply with the appointment of the
General Assembly in the settlement of Inverkeithing ; some other min-
isters having afterwards joined him, they formed a Presbytery in
1761, and took the name of Relief, as indicating that they sought re-
lief from the system of patronage.
The only other Secession took place in 1843, when the Free Ohitrch
was formed. It took its origin also from the settlement of ministers,
but involved another and larger question as to the nature and extent
of the independent jurisdiction of the Church. The General Assem-
bly having passed in 1834 what was commonly called the Veto Act,
by which a presentee to a vacant Church was to be rejected if a ma-
jority of heads of families in the parish objected to him Avithout rea-
sons assigned, it was decided by the Civil Courts in Scotland, and by
the House of Lords, on appeal, that this Act of the Church was at
variance with the law of Patronage, and incompetent for the Church
to enact ; the Church Courts being bound themselves to try a Pre-
sentee, and entitled to reject him only upon their own judgment, after
trial, of his insufficiency for the charge to which he was appointed.
On the other hand, those who seceded held that the Church had the
sole right, independent of the terms of the National Establishment,
to make laws and to determine in all such matters. They maintained
a similar claim of independent jurisdiction also, in opposition to
judgments given by the Courts of Law, in regard to the erection of
new parishes, and the admission of additional ministers to be members
of Church Courts, without the intervention or authority of the civil
courts appointed for the erection of new parishes. Finding that
these views were not acquiesced in by the Legislature, those who held
them seceded from the Established Church in May, 1843. Two hun-
dred and eighty-nine ministers of parishes, and ninety-one ministers of
chapels, joined the Secession.
Patronage has ahvays existed in the Church of Scotland, except
during a short period after the Revolution in 1690, when it was trans-
ferred to the Heritors and Elders of each parish, on payment of a small
sum (six hundred merks) to the Patron by the parishioners. Li 1711
Patronage was restored by Act of Parliament to its ancient possessors,
except in the case of those parishes, four in number, in which the parish-
ioners had paid the compensation. The system substituted in 1690
was said to have occasioned heats, and divisions, and long vacancies :
but the members of the Church were vehemently opposed to the
246 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
change, apprehending that the influence of the Patrons in the appoint-
ment of ministers would have a strong tendency to re-introduce Epis-
copacy : and for many years the General Assembly continued to pe-
tition for the repeal of the law of 1711.
While the Patron presents, the examination and admission of minis-
ters, in terms of Act 1567, is only in the power of the Church : the
Presentee must be one of the Probationers or Licentiates of the
Church, who have passed through all the course of study required by
the Church, and been licensed, after examination, by a Presbytery,
as qualified to receive a presentation ; after being presented, heundei'-
goes a new trial before the Presbytery, the parishioners have oppor-
tunity of stating any objections to him, either generally or in refer-
ence to the particular parish, and the Presbytery judge on the whole
case. An appeal lies to the Synod and General Assembly, at whose
judgment the case takes end.
Students for the ministry are required to attend four sessions at
the Literary and Philosophical classes of a University, and four ses-
sions at one or other of the Divinity Halls of the Scottish Universi-
ties. During their attendance at the Hall they are subjected to a
yearly examination by the Presbytery, and after completing their at-
tendance, when the leave of the Synod has been granted, they are
taken on a course of trial by the Presbytery, and if they pass through
it satisfactorily, are licensed to preach and enrolled as Probationers.
There are upwards of three hundred Probationers throughout the
Church.
The number of parishes in Scotland is 1009, with 1034 ministers,
25 of the charges being collegiate ; of the Patronages, 292 are in the
hands of the Crown, 572 in the hands of individual Noblemen or Gen-
tlemen, 60 in those of Town Councils, 26 of Congregations or of Trus-
tees appointed by them, 34 of the Crown and some other party
jointly, 34 of other persons jointly, 9 of Universities and Colleges,
5 of Heritors and Kirk Sessions, and 2 of Societies. About 50 new
parishes have been created during the last 12 years, and a number
more are in course of erection.
Besides the parish Churches and ministers, there are about 150
Chapels with ordained ministers or licentiates officiating in them.
There are 84 Presbyteries, consisting generally of from 12 to 24
ministers, with an elder chosen half yearly from each Kirk Session ;
one Presbytery in Shetland has only 4 ministers, the Presbytery of
Glasgow has 34 ministers, and Edinburgh 37.
There are 16 Synods, comprehending each from 3 to 7 Presbyte-
ries. The Synods meet generally twice a year, but a few of them in
the more remote districts meet only once a year.
The General iVssembly meets annually in Edinburgh on the 3d or
4th Thursday in May. It consists of Representatives from all
the Presbyteries, Royal Burghs, and Universities. Presbyteries send
one minister for every six ministers or fraction of six in their number,
and one elder, unless when they send four ministers, in which case
they send two elders, or when they send six ministers, in which case
they send three elders. The ministers must be members of the Presby te-
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1853-18G0. 247
ries by whom tliey are returned, but the elders returned by Presbyte-
ries may belong to any part of the Church.
The 66 Royal Burghs each send one elder, except Edinburgh,
which sends two : and the Universities each send one representative,
who may be a minister or an elder.
The total number of members in the General Assembly is 385, viz :
From Presbyteries, Ministers, 217 ; Elders, 95 ; From Royal Burghs,
Eklers, 67 ; From Universities, Ministers or Elders, 4; From Church
in India, Minister and Elder, 2.
In the General Assembly the Sovereign is represented by a Noble-
man specially appointed by the Crown, who is styled the Lord High
Commissioner. He addresses the Assembly at the opening and at the
close of the proceedings, but takes no part in the deliberations.
Tiic meetings of the General Assembly were formerly held in the
western aisle of St. Giles' Church, which was founded in the 9th cen-
tury, and is regarded as the Parish Church of Edinburgh. Soon
after the Reformation this Gothic structure was divided into four sepa-
rate places of worship. In 1643 the Solemn League and Covenant
was subscribed within it by the Committee of the Estates of Parlia-
ment, by the Commission or permanent Committee of the General
Assembly, and by the English Commissioners. In 1833 a thorough
repair and renewal of the whole edifice was accomplished, and, a new
place of meeting being required for the General Assembly, a commo-
dious and elegant building was erected on the Castle Hill, which is
also used as a Church for the Tolbooth parish, whose congregation
had formerly assembled in one of the portions of St. Giles.
This building, of which an engraving is given, was built in 1842-4,
after a design by Mr. Gillespie Graham; it cost .£16,000, (.^76,800.)
Its style of architecture is the decorated Gothic. Its form is oblong,
141 feet in length. Each flank shows five handsome windows, and a
suitable series of buttresses and pinnacles. The East end or main
front has a massive tower pierced through the basement with the
grand entrance, crowned on the walls with a circle of turret pinna-
cles, and surmounted in the centre by an elegant spire rising to the
height of 241 feet from the ground.
The General Assembly holds its sittings for ten days, and for deter-
mining any matters that may be left undisposed of, or taking neces-
sary steps in any emergency that may arise, appoints a Commission,
consisting of all the members of Assembly, and occasionally a few
others added, which meets at four stated times during the year, and
may be called together at any time on a requisition to the Moderator
of last Assembly. The Commission is accountable for its proceedings
to the subsequent General Assembly.
The General Assembly decides in all cases that may be brought
before it by appeal from the inferior Courts, and passes laws for the
regulation of the affairs of the Church ; but, according to the Barrier
Act, no law introducing an innovation or change in the established laws
or customs can be passed and made binding, until it has received the
approval of a majority of the Presbyteries of the Church, for which
purpose the proposed law is sent down as an Overture to Presbyteries,
who return their opinion to next Assembly.
248 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
The Assembly lias various Committees for conducting the schemes
of the Church in regard to Missions at home and abroad. These
schemes are six in number, three for home objects, and three for those
abroad.
The Education Scheme is for increasing the means of Education in
Scotland, particularly in the Highlands and Islands. It maintains
about 200 Schools.
The Home Mission Scheme is for aiding the payment of ministers
and missionaries in Chapels and Mission Stations, and gives aid to
about 120 ministers and missionaries.
The Endowment Scheme is for assisting in the endowment of new
parishes, and has succeeded in the endowment of between 50 and 60,
and contemplates the addition of about 100 more. A sum of nearly
<£35,000 ($168,000) has been subscribed and collected for this scheme
since it was commenced in 1846—7.
The Colonial Scheme is for granting aid in sending out ministers
or providing Churches for the Colonies. Aid was given last year to
33 missionaries and ministers.
The Foreign Mission Scheme supports missionaries and teachers at
the Presidencies and in other parts of India.
The Jewish Mission Scheme maintains five missionaries and five
teachers for the conversion of the Jews in Germany, and at Alexan-
dria, Smyrna, and Salonica.
For these six schemes a sum of .£53,000 ($254,400) was collected
during the year ending April 1859.
There is a Synod consisting of three Presbyteries in England in
connection with the Church of Scotland.
There are also in connection with the Church of Scotland the Synod
of Canada, the Synod of Nova Scotia, the Synod of New Brunswick,
and the Synod of Australia.
There are also ordained ministers of the Church of Scotland on ser-
vice in various other parts of the world : 13 are chaplains in India ;
about the same number are military chaplains attached to Presbyterian
regiments ; and there are ministers located in Holland, the West
Indies, New Zealand, Mauritius, Buenos Ayres, and British Guiana.

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1360. 249
THE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND.
The General Assembly of the Church of Scotland met May 19,
1859, in the High Church, Edinburgh, and Avas opened with a sermon
by the retiring Moderator, Matthew Leishman, D.D., from Isaiah
Ix. 22. " A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a
strong nation, I the Lord will hasten it in his time." After the ser- ^
mon the Assembly proceeded to the Assembly Hall, where the ses-
sions were constituted by prayer.
Dr. Leishman thanked the Assembly for the honour they had con-
ferred upon him last year in electing him to the Moderator's chair,
and proposed Rev. John Cook, d.d., of St. Andrew's, as his succes-
sor, an honour which could not be considered unmerited, when the
Assembly considered the services Dr. Cook had rendered the Church
in general, but more especially in extending and preserving the Chris-
tian character of the parish schools of Scotland. Dr. Cook was
elected by acclamation, and was duly installed into office.
The death of John Lee, d.d., principal clerk of the Assembly
being announced, it was agreed that Alexander L. Simpson, d.d.
be his successor, and John Cook, d.d., of Haddington, was elected
depute clerk, in place of Dr. Simpson elected principal clerk.
The Lord High Commissioner's (the Earl of Mansfield) commission
and the Queen's letter having been read, his Grace addressed the As-
sembly, assuring them of her Majesty's unceasing interest in the spir-
itual welfare of her people, and of her determination to maintain the
rights and privileges of the Church of Scotland, and stating the re-
newal of her Majesty's grant of £2,000, ($10,000,) for the extension
of the reformed religion in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland.

reported : Tliat the efforls of the Oliurch of Scotland to obtain an enlargement of the
means of religious ministrations to those of her communion in India, have at length

ral presidencies of Bengal, Madras, and Bombay, by an addition of seven junior chap-
lains to the six already supported there.

efforts, but called tlic nttentiou of the Assembly to the fact of a falling off in the col-

The subject of Lay Preaching came up as an appeal from the de-
cision of the Synod of Aberdeen. It appeared that Reginald Radcliffe. Esq., com-
menced a series of revival meetings in Aberdeen in the winter of I8r)8-18.59. After
some time he preached in Grey Friars Church, when the attention of the Presbytery
was called to its irregularity ; and Rev. James Smith, the minister of Giey Friars
Church, on being recpiested to desist from having the church so occupied, refused ;
whereupon at a meelinLT of the Presbytery the subject was l)i'ought forward enjoining
the request, and carried. Mr. Smith appealed to the Syiu)d, when the Synod adirmed
the judgment of the Presbytery. After a full discussion. Rev. Dr. Rol)ertson offered
the following resohitit)n which was adopted : That the General Assembly dismiss the
appeal, with the declaration that in confirming the jiulgment of Pi-esbytery and Sy-
nod they hold it as declaring only that the practice of preaching the word of God,
and conducting the other solemn services of the sanctuary, by persons not duly ap-
pointed to the office of the ministry in this church, ought not to be countenanced by
the courts or the ministers of this church.
The Innovations in Old Grey Friars Church, Edinburgh, were
brought before the Assembly by an appeal of Robert Lkk, d.d., minister in the Old
Grey Friars Church, against the judgment of the Synod of Lothian and Tweedale,
affirming the judgnu^n* of the Presbytery of Edinburgh, enjoining tlie appellant to
discontinue the innovations he introduced, and conform in future to the ordrr and form
of public worship as established in the Directory of Public Worship. After a long
discussion it was, on motion of James Bisset, d.d., agreed that the General Assembly
sustain the appeal and recall the judgment of Synod, in so far as the same affirm, sim-
pliciter, the judgment of the Presbytery of Edinburgh on April 26, 1859 ; and by the
admis^ion of Rev. Dr. Lee, that the prayers of the services in his church were read
by Dr. Lee, either in manuscript or print, from a book, entitled, " Prayers for Public
Worship," find that this practice is an innovation upon and contrary to the laws
and usages of the church in the celebration of public worship, and the Assembly en-
join Dr. Lee to discontinue these in the services of the church, and to conform in the
forms of prayer to the present order and practice of this church.

the false and debasing systems by which the natives are enslaved.
The Kildalton case was taken up, being the petition of tlie parish-
ioners, praying the Assembly to affirm the judgment of the Presbytery of Islav and
Jura, and rejecting Rev. Angus Maeintyre, the presentee (o this parish. 'I'he whole
subject came up, and was fully discussed, when, on motion of Dr. Hill, on the grour.d
of unsnitableness of the Rev. i\Ir. Macintyre's sermons, he was rejected, and tlie judg-
ment of Presbytery thereby sustained.
A Committee was appointed to consider and report to the next
Ceneral Assembly how the Tri-centenary of the Reformation in 18C0 miiilit be most
appropriately observed, and to confer with other Protestant bodies on the sultject.
Dr. Smith, of Inverary, reported on the Gaelic Scriptures, and
recommended the appointment of a Committee to conunnnicate with Covernment with

English, and to the limitation of the issue of the edition of 182G, as authorized by the
Assembly, and by the Government of that date.

Divinity from dissenting bodies, viz., two from the United Presbyterian and one from
the Free Church, proposing conditions which should be presented to them, and also
suggesting certain principles to guide Presbyteri&s in such cases. 'J'iie report was
adopted as far as the three cases were concerned. In regard to legislation, it was re-
ferred back to the Committee to report to the next Assembly.

Gibb, George — Minister of Glen Isla Parish, died in 1859. He was ordained
in 1822, and tor the last ten years had been connected with his late charge. His
health had been failing for some time, but he laboured on until he was taken quite ill
in church on a Sabbath, and expired on Monday night. He was in the sixtj'-fil'th
year of his age.
Lee, John — Was born in 1779, in a village on Gala "Water, Scotland Tie was
carefully educated, and was for some time with the celebrated Dr. Leyden, and after-
wards in the University of Edinburgh, where he took the degree of M. D. Sub-
sequently he entered the church, his first charge being the Scottish Church in
London. From thence he was called to Peebles, where after labouring four years, he
was, in 1812, elected Professor of Church History in the University of St. Andrews.
He also successively filled the charges of the Canongate, Lady Tester's, and Old
Church, Edinburgh, until 1840, when he was elected by the Town Council of Edin-
burgh Principal of the University. In 1844 he was elected to the Chair of Divinity
in the University, which he held in connection with the principalship. In 1828, he
was elected one of the Clerks of the General Assembly. In 1844 he was Moderator,
and many of the pastoral letters addressed to the church by the Assembly were from
his pen.
Principal Lee was one of the survivors of that rare old race of Scottish divines
and scholars. His life was one of indefatigable industry. As Principal Clerk of the
Assembly, on abstruse points of ecclesiastical history he was an authority from whom
there was no appeal .

262 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
THE FREE CHURCH OF SCOTLAND.
The General Assembly of the Free Cliurcli met on Thursday,
May 19, 1839, in their New Hall, and was opened with a discourse from
the retiring Moderator, Alexander Beith, D.D.,from Matthew vi. 10 :
"Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven." At the conclusion
of the sermon he made a few practical remarks in connection with
their New Hall, in which they now met for the first time.
The Assembly being duly constituted, Dr. Beith nominated Wil-
liam Cunningham, d.d,, Principal of the New College, Edinburgh,
and remarked that in so doing he felt gratified in bearing merited tes-
timony to one who is dear to all our hearts, and who will receive the
unanimous and cordial approbation of this Assembly.
Principal Cunningham was elected by acclamation, and being con-
ducted into the Hall by Rev. Dr. Clason and Lord Panmure took his seat
amid loud applause. lie then addressed the Assembly. It was agreed,
on the motion of Rev. Dr. Beith, to present a loyal and dutiful address
to Her Majesty in connection with the Anniversary of her birthday.
On motion of Mr. Dunlop, the representatives of the Presbytery
of tlic Nortli of Italy were received.
Prof. Smeaton gave the Report of the Committee on the conver-
sion of the Jews, from wliich it appears that the labours of the year are somewhat
encouraging, though a falling off in the receipts was apparent.
Prof. Miller read the Report of the Committee on Temperance,
which stated tiiat though much had been done during the past year to lessen the sin
of intemperance throughout the land, the evil still remains of an alarming and disas-
trous magnitude. They would also remind the Assembly of the necessity (or increased
and sustained efforts to neutralize this national vice, frauglit as it is with such teriible
calamity to the bodies and souls of men ; looking mainly to the progress of " the only
certain "specific for the moral regeneration of human nature — the promulgation of the
gospel — but at the same time encouraging, and if need be, aiding those other means,
such as Temperance Associations, and associations for improving the dwellings of the
working classes."
Dr. Roxburgh gave in the Report of the Home Mission Commit-
tee. 'I'he number of agents is 106 ; viz., 18 ministers, 6G probationers, 12 catechists,
and 10 students employed on Missionary work. The report entered into a full de-
scription of their work, and the committee are collecting materials which will enable
them to present to the next Assembly an account of the whole Home Missionary
operations of the church.
Various Reports were received from the Committees of the Church,
atti acting more or less attention. The subject of Lay Preaching came up, and Mr.
Brownlow North was recognized as a lay preacher of the Free Church.
Dr. Begg gave an outline of the proposed plan to celebrate the
Tri-cetitenary of the Reformation in Scotland next year, which proposed that the As-
sembly of next year should hold a special diet to give thanks for the great mercy of
the Relormation ; that every pulpit in Scotland should be occupied on an appointed
day with the occasion and principles of the Refurmai'on, &c.
The Assembly adjourned to meet in the same place on 'i'hursday, May 17, 1860.

Burns, William Hamilton — Was born in Falkirk, Stirlingshire, Scotland, July 15,
1779. He began his studies for the ministry in the University of Edinburgh in 1791,
and with the exception of one year at St. Andrews, the whole of his curriculum
was passed in the Metropolitan University, where in all the departments of studies
he stood high, particularly in Languages and Theology.
During the years 17i*7 to 1799 he was tutor in thelamily of Sir James D. Hay. In
1799 he was licensed by the Presbytery of Stranraer, and in the autumn of that year
he became regular assistant to Rev. James Lauder, Minister of Dun, and was ordv^ined,
December 4, 1800, and for twenty-one years, with a pains-takinsj piety and an earn-
estness never excelled, he discharged the duties of his small parish. In 1820 the large
parish of Kilsyth became vacant, and in the year following he was inducted into this
important charge. He laboured with his accustomed zeal in this congregation. At
the Disruption he took a decided stand in favour of the Free Church movement, and
at great pecuniary sacrifice ; but his congregation were devoted to him, and his life
was one of continued activity and usefulness. In his seventy-eighth year the peoph;
of his charge called Rev. Mr. Black as colleague, and for the last three years r.f liis
life his labours were considerably lessened. He died May 8, 1859, of a severe iilnesS,
and he glorified God in dying as he had done while livii;g, surrounded by his surviv-
ing partner, by his children, and his grandchildren. His lite had been one unbounded
course of fidelity, and uprightness, and deep-toned spirituality.
Grey, Henry — ^V"as born at Alnwick, Northumberland, England, in 1778. Ha
was ordained in 1801. He was called to the Old Chapel of Ease, Edinburgh, in ?813,
and subsequently to the Pari.<h of Stenton in East Lothian ; afterwards to the Xew
North, and then to St. Mary's Parish, Edinburgh. He left the Church of ^c-'tland,
and was Moderator of the Free Church the first year after the Disruption.
Owing to increasing years his health gradually gave way, until he quietly feil asleep,
January 13. 1859. He was one of the most popular and accomplished preachers in
Edinburgh, and though well stricken in years he continued to preach to his pe()i)le at
one diet of worship almost to the last.
Mackellar, Angus— Was ordained in 1812 to the charge of Carmuimocli in the
■west ot Scotland. Jn 1814 he was called to Pencaitlaiul, where for thirty ye;irs ho
laboured faithfully. In 1840 he was Moderator of the Cliurch of Scotland, and when
the Disruption came he was one of the acknowledged leaders of the Free Chiircli,
On leaving his country parish he removed to Edini)urgh, and for some years e.xeieised
a sort of general supei'intendencc over the missionary ai;d edncationa! interests of the
chnvch, as Convener of the Hoards of Mission and Education. He was Moderator
of the Assembly of the Free Church of Scotland in 1852. He died alter a lingering
illness, May 11, 1859. He was buried in the Dean Cemetery, Edinburgh^

270 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
UNITED PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF SCOTLAND.
The Synod met in the Synod House, Queen street, Edinburgh, on
Monday, May 9, 1859, and was opened with a discourse by the retir-
ing Moderator, William Peddie, d.d., from Psahn Ixxxv. 6: "Wilt
thou not revive us ?" After the discourse the sessions were constituted
with prayer. James Boyd, d.d., Minister at Campbeltown, was elected
Moderator.
Rev. H. M. Macgill read the Report of the Committee on Home
Missions, by which it appears that during the year 152 congregations were aided, with
a membersliin of 23,392 ; they had raised among themselves for the usual religious
purposes £18,592 (.$92,960) ; they had 188 Sabbath-schools and 147 Bible-classes,
1237 teachers and 11,737 scholars ; and 348 preaching stations, besides their regular
places, were supplied with the privileges of the gospel.
Mr. James Peddie, w.s., Treasurer, reported that during the year
£6,188 ($30,940) were raised for Home Missions, and £20,449 ($102,245) for Fo-
reign Missions ; making the total receipts for these two objects £26,637 (!$133,185.)
Dr. Somerville read the Report of the Committee on Foreign
Missions, by which it appears that the objects of the mission are being carried for-
ward with rather more gratifying results than usual.
Dr. Gr. Johnston read the Report of the Committee on Theological
Hall, which reports a satisfactory state of affairs. The number of scholars during
the last session was 191.
Rev. H. M. Macgill read the Report of the Aged and Infirm Min-
isters' Scheme. The amount of capital raised for the fund is £18,755 (§93,775).
During the j-ear 17 annuitants had been admitted who would have been entitled to
£830 ($4,150), but three died, the remaining 14 entitled to £700 ($3,500).
Rev. Mr. Kenton read the Report of the Committee on the Tri-
centenary of the Reformation, which suggested the first Wednesday afternoon of the
next meeting of Synod in 1860 be set apart for appropriate services, and the Com-
mittee be continued to make any arrangements with all the Protestant denominations
throughout the world.
The Committee on Education for Missionaries' Families ; Congrega-
tional Sabbath-schools ; the Observance of the Sabbath ; Open Air and Itinerant
Preaching, &c., were brought before the Synod.
After a closing address from the Moderator, the Synod adjourned with prayer, and
the apostolic benediction, to meet again on Monday, May 14, 1860.

Allison, David — Was born at Galefoot Farm in Ochiltree Parish, Ayrshire,
Scotland, in 1799. His parents removed to Paisley where their son received his pri-
mary education. Graduating at the University of Glasgow with honour, he studied
Theology first under Dr. Lawson at Selkirk, and subsequently with Dr. Dick at Glas-
gow. He was licensed in the spring of 1821, and was soon after settled at Stuart-
field, where he was ordained, July 8, 1823 ; the services being held in a field, there
being no church in the place large enough to hold the crowd that assembled. Here he
laboured with diligeuce and success for thirty-four years. He died, July 7, 1858. In
the life of a minister in a retired situation there is seldom any thing of more than
local interest. As a preacher his style was clear and perspicuous. He avoided the
puerile embellishments of poetry and phrases borrowed from philosophy and vain de-
ceit, lie was not what i? called a popular preacher, but he was more — a useful one.
Beattie, Alexander 0, — Was born at Ecclefechan, August 17, 1773. He was
licensed in 1807, and was ordained at Leslie, Fifeshire, January, 1808. in 1813 he
removed to Kincardine. Here he was very i)opular, and being called to Miles Lane,
London, he declined the invitation, and on his return IVoin the Synod after giving his
decision, he was met at the wharf at Kincardine by his rejoicing friends, and the ship-
wrights struck work for the afternoon and carried him on their shoulders to his manse.
He was translated to the Gordon street Church, Glasgow, in 1825. The chui'ch grew
under his ministry from year to year. It was in the midst oF his usefulness, after a pas-
torate of tliirty-two years, he was taken with paralysis, but though deprived of strength
liis mind was unclouded. After lingering a long time, he died June, 10, 1858. He
left his property, $15,000, to the United Presbyterian Church for the education of
young men for the ministry. Dr. Beattie's mind and character were salient and
conspicuous. His intellect was robust and shrewd without any fornuil cultivation.
'IVaining had done little for him save to quicken his mental vigour. Profundity he
did not even pretend to appreciate, and subtle distinctions were all lost upon him.
Common sense was his ruling trait, and in his sphere he found it more u.sel'ul than
logic. Speculation was a walk in which he never trod, but he cheerfully followed the
good '' old paths."
Beattie, Matthew — Was born in 1786, and ordained as minister of the congre-
gation of Dunscore. He died June 23, 1858, in bis seventy-second year.
272 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
Brown, John — ^y^xs bom at Burnhead, Whitburn, July 12, 1784. He entered
the University of Edinburgh, November 1797, and Divinity Hall, SeII<irk, August,
1800. He was licensed by tiic Presl)ytery of Stirling and Falkirk, Febiuary, 1805.
Ordained at Biggar, February G, 1806. JHlere lie laboured devotedly lor sixteen j-ear-s,
when, June 4, 1822, he accepted a call to Rose street Cliurch, Kdiniiuigh. Seven
years later, May 20, 1829, he was called to Bronghton Place, and in April, 1834, he
was elected Professor of Exegetical Theology. Here his mighty intellectual powers
had full sway. Possessing a mind of clear apprehension and soinid judgnient, with
reasoning powers cautious and just, his mind was a perfect harmony, and for a quar-
ter of a century his whole life and energy were devoted to his high calling. His fatal
illness was upwards of a year in duration, 'i'he machinery for a much longer life was
all there, but the motive power was gone. His ardent, unsparing soul had v,-asted
itself l>y excess of intensity of effort. He died, October 14, 1858.
Hay, David — ^\'as born in St. Andrews, Scotland, in 1831, where he was also
educated. He was a diligent student. He taught an Academy at Inverness, and
was licensed by Inverness Presbytery. His first appointments were Johnshaven,
Cere.s, and Largo. Having received a call from Largo, he was ordained August 10,
1858. He entered upon his work with all the zeal of his ardent nature, but dming
a journey to assist a brother minister he caught cold which produced a violent attack
of pneumonia, of which he died, April 8, 1859. He was a graceful speaker, and one
of the most promising young ministers in the church.
Law, James — Was born in 1775. He was ordained in 1799, and was senior
minister of the Bethelfield United Presbyterian Church, Kirkcaldv, Scotland. He
died. May .'). 1859.
Nicol, William — Was ordained in 1824, and was senior minister of Black Friars
Unitcil I'rcsbyteriau Church, Jedburgh, Scotland, He died, December 27, 1858.
Henderson, James — The son of William and Ann (Watson) Henderson, was
born April 8, 1787, in Stu'ling. Scotland. His parents were members of the Seces-
sion congregation, which derived its origin from Bev. Kbi'nezer Erskine. Their piety
was of a decided cast, and their household was an example of Christian order and
happiness. At the early age of four years James was sent to school, and at five he
could read with facility, at which time he read his Bible through. He received the
best education Stirling afforded, and in his thirteenth year he entered the University
of Glasgow, where lie remained four years, when he was admitted as a student of
'I'heology by the Presbytery of Stirling and Falkirk, in Jul}', 1804, when he entered
Divinity Hall, Selkirk. On finishing his course, lie was licensed by the same Presby-
tery, February 15, 1809, first preaching at Denny, a small village near .Stirling, but
soon after receiving a call from the congregation at Galashiels, he was ordained
Aug. 29, 1810. For the long period of forty-eight years with the undeviating care and
affection of his people, did this eminent man of God go in and out before his people.
With a mind fully matured he soon rose to distinction, and ho was known as one of
the most finished preachers of his day. He laboured under a peculiar di-sease of the
heart which finally terminated his life, November 4, 1858.
He married Miss Isabella Hay, daughter of the late Rev. Robert Ilay of Stow, who
preceded him to the grave a few years.
McGilclirist, Joiin — Was born in 1796, and ordained in 1820. He was senior
minister of Rose street congregation, Edinburgh, Scotland. He died May 15, 1858.
Smith, William — Was bom in 1812 ; having passed through the usiuil studies,
was licensed and ordained in 1838 as Minister in the United Presbyterian Church, Ban-
nockburn, Scotland. During a visit with a friend to the sea shore he went in to Ijathe,
at Aberdeen Creek, and was carried out by tlie current and drowned, Aug. 14, 1858.
ICvery effort was made to save him, but in vain. He left a widow and a large family.
Struthers, Gavin — Was born in 1790. After receiving the usual education he
removed to (Glasgow, and at its University received his classical and philosophical
training. After studying Theology he received a call from the Anderston Relief
Church, Glasgow, and was ordained in 1817. He was mainly instrumental in bringing
about the Union between the United Secession and the Relief Church, and v,as the
author of the address read from all the pulpits of both denominations at its consum-
mation. He was an earnest thinker, and owing to his many labours his health broke
down, and in 1855 he was entirely laid aside incapable of any mental exertion. He
died July 11, 1858. He was author of a History of the Relief Church, and an Essay
on Christian Union.

THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 277
REFORMED PRESBY'N. CHURCH OF SCOTLAND.
The Synod met according to appointment in Glasgow, Scotland,
May 2, 1859, and was opened Avith a discourse by Eev. James Fer-
guson, the retiring Moderator.
Rev. James Morrison, of the Presbytery of Dumfries, was chosen
Moderator. The usual reports were presented and disposed of.
The subject of voting for members of Parliament was brought be-
fore the Synod by a memorial from the London congregation which
elicited a full discussion. The Synod refused to alter their previous
decision, whereupon J. Cunningham, d.d., in his own name and in
behalf of the congregation of London, withdrew from the fellowship of
the Reformed Presbyterian Church of Scotland.
The Synod adjourned to meet the first Monday in May, 1860.
John Graham, Clerk. JAMES MORRISON, Moderator.

Bates, James — Tieceived liis education for the ministry in Scotland, and after his
licensure lie received a call IVoni the cong-regation ot New Cumnock, but owing to
the weakness of his lungs lie was advised to emigrate to another climate. Accord-
ingly he left for Australia, where lie arrived in April, 1858. He proceeded to Gee-
long where he was well received, and it was thought by many that his health was im-
proved, but he was attacked with dysentery ; he rallied, however, and was on a journey
to see a physician at Newtown. AVHiilst walking fiom the train to an omnibus he was
seen to fall. When picked up lie was speechless and soon died. The brethren in
Australia speak in high terms of his character. He died in July, 1858.

278 THE PRESBTTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH OF VICTORIA.
The organization of this Church took place in Rev. Irving Hethe-
rington's Church, corner of Russell and Collins streets, Melbourne,
Australia. The Colonial Legislature at its previous session having
passed an Act legalizing the Union, it was consummated at noon,
April T, 1859.
Rev. James Clow, being the oldest minister present, was elected
Moderator. After an address he requested the ministers and elders
to stand up, whilst he read the basis and formula, and they signified
their acceptance of and adherence to the same.
We. the uiicler.^igned minister.? and elders of "The Synod of Victoria," " The Free
Churcli Synod of Victoria," '' The United Presbyterian Synod of Victoria," and
"The United Presbyterian Synod of Australia," having resolved, after long and
prayerful deliberation, to unite together in one Synod and in one Church, do now, in
the'name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and with solemn prayer for his guidance and bless-
ing, unite in one Synod, to be called " The Presbyterian Church of Victoria." and
resolve and determine that the following be the fundamental princi])les and articles of
the union, and be subscribed by each of the members of the new Synod.
1st. 'J'hat the Westminster Confession of Faith, the Larger and Shorter Cate-
chisms, the Form of Presbyterian Church Government, the Directory for Public Wor
ship, and the Second Book of Discipline, be the standards and formularies of this church.
2d. That inasmuch as there is a difference of opinion in regard to the doctrines
contained in the standards, relative to the power and duty of the civil magistrate in
matters of religion, the office bearers of this Church, in subscribing these standards and
formularies, are not to be held as countenancing any persecuting or intolerant princi-
ples, or as professing any view in reference to the power aud duty of tlie civil magis-
trate inconsistent with the liberty of personal conscience, or the right of private
judgment.
3d. 'I'hat this Synod asserts for itself a separate and independent character and
position as a Church, possesses supreme jurisdiction over its subordinate judicatories,
congregations, and people ; and will receive all ministers and preachers from other
Presbyterian Churches applying for admission on an equal fooling, who shall there-
upon "become subject to its authority alone.
Vonnula. — I do hereby declare that I do sincerely approve and accept the stand-
ards and formularies enumerated in the foregoing articles, as the confession of my
faith, with the declarations and provisions contained in the second article ; and I pro-
mise that, through the grace of (iod, I shall firmly and constantly adhere to the same ;
that 1 sball follow no divisive councils, but in my station, and to the utmost of my
power, shall assert, maintain, and defend the doctrines, worship, discipline, and govern-
ment of this Church, as therein defined, renouncing all doctrines, tenets, and opinions
\vhatsoever contrary to or inconsistent with the same.
This was signed by all the ministers and elders present, and subse-
quently by others. A few of the ministers of the different bodies
dissented, though their names are included in the list of ministers given
on the following page. [It is reasonable to suppose thej^ will gradu-
ally come in, as they are in good standing in the bodies to which
they belong.]
After transacting some other items of business, the Assembly ad-
journed to meet in May, 1860.

280 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH IN IRELAND.
The General Assembly met according to appointment in Mary's
Abbey Church, Dublin, July 4, 1859, and was opened with a discourse
by Rev. John Johnston, d.d., the retiring Moderator. The sessions
were constituted with prayer. Rev. William Gibson, Professor of
Moral Philosophy, was elected Moderator.
The reports from the various Synods indicated a wide-spread and
earnest interest in regard to personal religion. To such an extent
had the revival gone that it had awakened pubHc attention, especially
m connection Avith those physical manifestations which could liardly
be accounted for.
Rev. Wm, McClure and Prof. Gibson presented a report of their
visit to the British Provinces in North America and the United States.
The report showed the great feeling of love and regard in which the
General Assembly of Ireland is held by the people of the provinces
and states.
The report of the mission among the Roman Catholics of Ireland
called forth a lively discussion. The efforts of the mission were more
energetic than ever before, and the success so far has been truly en-
couraging. Tile demand for means in the present exigency prompted
the appointment of Rev. John Edgar, d.d., Rev. S. M. Dill, and Rev.
David Wilson as a committee to visit the United States and the Ca-
nadas to ask for aid and co-operation in this good work.
The business of the meeting was interrupted from time to time by
seasons of devotional exercises, and such was the feeling among the
members of the Assembly in view of the spiritual Avants of the people
that the Assembly adjourned to meet in September.
The meeting was resumed in September, when, after disposing of
some business matter, the Assembly adjourned to meet in Rev. Dr.
Cooke's Church, Belfast, July 2, 1860.

Dill, Richard— Tbe son of Rev. Richard Dill, of-Kiiowhead, County Donegal, was
born ill 18()G, at Ardmore, near Knowhead. lie received a f,^ood education niider the
care of his lather. He afterwards attended Fovle Colleg-e, at Derry, where he gra-
duated. In 1821 he entered the University of Glasgow, wiiere he completed a full
course, taking his degree as Master of Arts. In 1827 he was licensed by Derry Pres-
bytery, and December 17, 1829, he was ordained as minister over the congregation
of Tandridge, County Armagh. Here he laboured very acceptably until 183."), wiiun he
accepted the call to the important charge of Orniond Quay, Dublin, wliere he re-
mained until his death. Dr. Dill devoted much of his time and attention to,llie con-
dition (if the Presbyterian soldiers in the British army, especially with their right of
having Presbyterian chaplains. lie wrote and delivered many essays and addresses
on this favourite theme, and ere his deatii he received evidences of the attention of
the Government to this whole subject. He also wrote warmly agtiiiist the idea he
had conceived of a tendency among some of the brethren to a little High Clmrchisni,
and the work atliacted attention at the time. There was a degree of roughness or
robustness about Dr. Dill's character which prevented hiui from having nianv nr warm
friends, and in his varions controversies this element of his nature manifested itself;
but he- was a genuine Piesbyterian, and a man of great strength of mind and force
of character. He died, December 8, 1858. There iiad been a gi-adual decay of his
£3-stein fur some time, wdiich finally assumed an active and eventually a fatal tvpe.
Goudy, Alexander P, — The son of Rev. Andrew Goudy, was born at Ballywal-
ter, Feliruai-y 4, 1809. He was well educated, finishing his collegiate course in Bel-
fast College. He was licensed by Bangor Presbytery in December 29, 1830, and on
September 20, 1831, was ordained over the coiiLji-egation of Glastrv as assistant to
Rev. James Sinclair. Here he remained until jNIarch 20, 1833. when'liaving accepted
a call he was installed over the congregation of Strabmie. Here he devnted his full
powers in the advancement of I'resbyterianism. In 1839 he published a volume en-
titled Presbyterianism Defended ; in 1840, another work called a Plea for Piesliyfery.
The able manner in which these works were written placed the author among the fore-
most men of the clmrch. In 1857 he was Moderator of the Assemblv, and in 1858
he v.-as appointed one of the Presbyterian Chaplains for the Army. Thedeath of his
friend, Dr. Dill, was felt very deeply, and having attended his funeral it was given
3ut that Dr. Goudy would ])reach his funeral sermon, but he was taken suddenly ill
during that week, and died of congestion of the brain, December 15, 1858.

Note — The deficiencies of the preceding Summary could not be supplied save by approximation. It
may be interesting to state that 7000 ministers report 826,748 Communicants, being an average of 118
members each, which being multiplied by the total number of ministers (10,145) would show a Total of
Communicants of 1,200,500. The collections reported by 8000 ministers amount to $6,741,485, which is an
average of $R47 to each minister. The total number of ministers (10,145) being multiplied by $847 show
a total of $8,992,8 15.

THE PKiiSBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 295
AMERICAN TRACT SOCIETY.
Thk American Tract Society, composed of Cliristians voluntarily nnitoJ, ami com-
prisincc members from all the principal denominations, was instituted in New York,
May 11, 1825. Its oflScers arc a President, Vice Presidents, Secretaries, 'i'reasurer.
Auditors, and thirty-six Directors annually elecied by the Society. 'I'liese wiih the
Life Directors, constitute a Board, who annually elect a Pubiishinc, Distribnting',
and Finance Committee, the members of which constitute an Executive Committee,
to conduct the business of the Society.
Its object, as expressed iu the Constitution, " is to diflfuse a knowledge of our Lord
Jesus Christ as the Redeemer of sinners, and to promote the interests of vital godli-
ness and sound morality by the circulation of religious tracts, calculated to receive
the approbation of all evangelical Christians."
By the wise foresight of its founders, a house and lot were provided for its perma-
nent accommodation by the citizens of New York at its formation. It now has
twenty power presses, and other machinery and fixtures for tlie economical and rapid
multiplication of its periodicals and other evangelical works.
In prosecuting this Catholic work, neither interfering with, nor superseding any
other mode of doing good, it has provided a strictly evangelical lileraliu-e, consisting
of 2400 distinct works, and upon every theme, from the minutest duties of a holy life,
to the profomidcst doctrines of the Christian system, unsurpassed for true Scrijjtural
teaching, fervency of appeal, and adaptation to every want of the human heart ; and
has circulated them through every available channel — by private Christians, city
missionaries, tract distributors, pious travellers, devoted sailors, ministers and mis-
sionaries at home and abroad, and by colporteurs.
American colportage, an aggressive system for reaching the unevangelized by the
combined power of printed and spoken truth, was originated by the American Tract
Society in 1842. Small in the beginning, it increased year by year, and now employs
about 500 colporteurs, who iu almost every State and Territory of our land are spread-
ing the truth as it is in Jesus.
The absolute necessity for this forerunning and catholic agency, is seen in the fact
that about one-third of our entire population lie outside of the Church, and beyond
the reach of the evangelical ministry, and must be reached, if at all, by some such
aggressive means.
The Society relies upon the voluntary donations of benevolent men in all the
churches, to carry forward its agressive and catholic work.
THE WORK IT HAS DONE,
In the 34 years of its existence, the Society has appropriated in money to foreign
lands, chiefly through the various evangelical Foreign Missionary Boards, for the
printing of books and tracts for the heathen, $498,794 00.
It has made grants iu publications at home to the amount of .$709,370 51.
It has expended in catholic colportage more than $800,000.
It has circulated of books 14,000,000 copies, and of smaller public's., 200,000,000.
It also issues monthly 200,000 copies of the American Messenger, 27,000 of the
Botschafter, and 300,000 of the Child's Paper.
Its colporteurs on their mission of love have made eight million family visits.

To afford good facilities, — on moderate terms, for a complete education, intellectual,
Bocial, moral and religious, — to the youth confided to its charge, is its assumed object.
Its special claims on the regard of parents and guardians, lie in the well-tried and sue.

and guaranty of future well-doing in the work of education ; in short, of "meeting all
reasonable expectations."

WASHINGTON COLLEGE,
LEXINGTON, VIRGINIA.
GEORGE JUNKIN, D.D., President.
The unrivalled beauty of our mountain scenery, contributes not a little to its advan-
tage, in the view of all persons who duly appreciate the power which the sublime scenes
of nature exert upon the mind, and especially upon the youthful mind. It is not possi-
ble, that the eye of youth, under a course of intellectual training, should continually
rest upon our undulating hills and rise to the summit of our majestic mountains, vrith-
out lifting the spirit to something of their own sublimity.
The session opens on the second Thursday of September. Punctuality in attendance
at the opening of the Session is of the utmost importance. Deficiencies are often due to
missing or neglecting the first lessons.
The Commencement Exercises will take j^iace on the last Thursday in June.
There will be no recess during the Session, except on Christmas day.

LOCATION, BUILDINGS, &c.
The village of Hanover is situated upon an elevated bluff of the Ohio river, mx
miles below Madison, Indiana, in a region of remarkable salubrity and natural
beauty. The village and neighborhood are characterized by morality, and the absence
of all ordinary temptation to vice and idleness. The Ohio river, and the Railways
from Madison, N. Albany, and Cincinnati, place Hanover within twenty-four hours of
all the principal points in Indiana, Kentucky, Western Ohio, and Eastern Illinois. A
Turnpike from Madison to Hanover, renders the village easy of access at all seasons
of the year.
Hanover College is controlled by a Board of Trustees ; one half of whom are ap-
pointed by the Board itself, and the other half by the Synods of Indiana and Northern
Indiana.
The Board purchased, some years ago, a farm of two hundred acres, lying between
the village and the Ohio river, upon a beautiful point of which, overlooking the river
from an elevation of four hundred feet, they have erected a commodious College edi-
fice, now completed and occupied. The new College consists of a centre building,
nearly eighty feet square, with lateral and transverse wings. The whole length is
about two hundred feet. It contains no dormitories for Students ; (an undesirable
provision ; ) but affords ample and convenient halls, library, cabinet, lecture and re-
citation rooms, and a spacious chapel.
The building commands an exceedingly diversified view of the river, for sis milei
up, and ten miles down its course.

Associated with experienced and eminently qualified Instructors in the several
Departments.
This Seminary ranks with the best institutionB of our country. It affords the means of a thorough
education in the essential and higher departments of learning; providing, at the same time, fur all the art-
istic and ornamental branches.
The plan of the course is coextensive with that of colleges for young men, and the most thorough
scholarship may bo secured by all who pass regularly through the prescribed range of study.
Very superior facilities are afforded to young ladies who wish to pursue the higher branches of a collegi-
ate education.
The French department is in charge of the most competent native teachers.
It is the aim of the instructors to quicken the mental powers— to create the love of study, so that the
duties of the school-room, instead of a task, will be a pleasure.
The government is mild without weakness, and ofiScient without austerity. Its aim is to awaken self-
respect in the mind of the pupil, and a sense of moral obligation that will secure the strictest propriety of
conduct in the school-room, and in all the intercourse of the scholars with their instructors, and w:th each
other.
Scholars from abroad are received into the family of the Principal, where they are surrounded by all the
influences of a well-ordered Christian home. The locality is central^ and unsurpassed in point of hcaltbfol-

MEDIA CLASSICAL INSTITUTE,
ELEVEN miles from Philadelirhia by Railroad. The location and surroundings for
beauty cannot be surpassed. The buildings are new, and their arrangement is most com-
plete, being planned expressly for educational purposes. The grounds, though within the
Borough, are retired, secluded, and ample, covering several acres, and have an abundance of
shrubbery and shade.
The Institute has been in successful operation for twenty-six years.
Of its numerous students, during that period, nearly sixty have become Ministers of the
Gospel. Of these, three are now in India, two in China, and one in Africa.
Many have distinguished themselves in the Legal and Medical Professions, in the Pro-
fessor's Chair, in the Halls of Congress, and in the various departments of business life.
Two are now Presidents of Colleges.
The following extracts from a few of the numerous business letters, containing similar
sentiments, will indicate the opinions of our patrons: —
The late Hon. JOim M. CLAYTON, Ex-Secretary of State, &c., says :
"I cannot express all my thanks for your attention to my boys. They have learned, and
now love to learn. Their fondness for, and attachment to you, are such as gives the best of
guarantees for their future progress."
0, LATIMER, Presideut of the Bank of Delaware, says :
"I have to express my thanks for your attention to my sous, and have only to regret
ttat I have not placed them at your Institution long since."
ALFRED DUPONT, de Nemours, says:
«I thank you most cordially for your attention to my boys. Their progress in study is
highly satisfactory."
REV. I. W. K. HANDY, Portsmouth, Va., says: — "I am much obliged to you and family
for the attention and kindness manifested towards my son. I have had every confidence in
yourself and son as instructors ; I was glad to observe considerable improvement when
Frederick was last at home. I hope I shall find that he has made as much progress during
the session which has just closed."
REV. GEO. JUNKIN, D. D., whilst President of Lafayette College, after examination of
several pupils from this Institute, for admission to an advanced class, having adverted to
their " thoroughness," &o., says :
*' From the superior quality of the specimen, we are prepared to endorse the'lot. May tao
Good Shepherd watch over you and your valuable Institution."
A Literary Society, meets weekly, for improvement in Debate, Composition, and Declama-
tion.
By the members of this society, " THE ORIENT," a semi-monthly manuscript of about
twenty pages is produced. Two of the members are appointed monthly as editors and pub-
lishers. Originality must Stamp every article to ensure insertion. It is read in presence of
the family and visitors.

REV. J. M'». MATTUEVCS, ».!>., PRINCIPAI..
Tnis School has been in successful operation, under the same Principal, twentt
TEARS. The plan of discipline resembles that of the Moravian School at Bethlehem,
Pa. Protestant parents sometimes send their daughters to Roman Catholic Schools,
thinking them more safe than others. But here is a Protestant fechool where the
utmost vigilance and care are exercised in School and out, and safety is secured. The
School is under Methodist Control, but the religious teachings inculcate the broad
principles of Protestant Christianity, and are not sectarian. Various denominations
have alwaj's patronized the School. The School Year begins on the FIRST MONDAY
in September, and ends about the middle of June. Terms — $200 per year for BOARD
and TUITION. FRENCH, MUSIC, DRAWING, &c., extra.

favourably known. It was the design of its founders to establish an
Institution, on Christian principles, whose aim would be to give not
only thorough culture to the intellect, but the religion of Christ to
the heart. They have been eminently successful. During its entire
history the blessing of the Holy Spirit. has rested upon it.
Steubenville is remarkable for the beauty and healthfulness of
its situation ; and is easy of access from every direction by the Ohio
tiver, and Railroads.
TERMS:

Tuition, from $10 to $16. Music, Painting, and Modern Languages, extra.

808 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
THE
AMERICAN SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION
IS A UNION OF INDIVIDUALS,
NOT OF CHURCHES OR DENOMINATIONS;
IT HAS TWO GRAND OBJECTS:
let. — To plant a Sunday School wherever there is a destitute population.
2d.— To prepare and circulate moral and religious publications.
FACTS WORTH CONSIDERINa.
1st. — Four Millions of Children in the United States are destitute of Religious Instruction.
2d. — The American Sunday School Union is the only Religious Society having a direct mission to these
children.
Srd. — The Society has now more permanent missionaries in commission than at any one time in its pro-
vious history.
4th. — Not a dollar contributed to the Society is devoted to any other purpose than the support of mission-
aries and tlie supplying of poor children with books.
5th. — It has no collecting agents, but depends upon voluntary contributions for the support of its
missionaries.
The Book-department sustains itself on business principles, and in addition is enabled from its small
profits to pay tlie salaries of the Secretaries of the Missionary Department.
The Society does not make sufficient profit on its publications to create a revenue for its Missionary
work. Contributions for this work are earnestly solicited.
A NEW BOOK EVERY SATURDAY MORNING.
THE AMERICAN SUNDAY SCHOOL UNION, in addition to the large number of books already on
its Catalogues, being over TWELVE HUNDRED DISTINCT VOLUMES, will issue a New Book every
Saturday Morning during the year.

Estal^lisliecl by the General AssenalDly iia 1S3S,
ARE PUBLISHING
LETTERS OE JOHN CALVIN,
COMPILED FROM TUE ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPTS, AND EDITED WITH HISTORICAL NOTES.
BY DR. JULES BONNET.
Vols. 1, 2 and 3, now roady; VoL 4 and lasu bSing translated. Price per Vol. $1.30. 8vo.
In these volumes the Board has given to the world the first translation into English of the numerous
and valuable letters of the great Reformer.
This collection contains 000 of Calvin's Letters, and covers the period of his whole public ca^-eer. The
corresDoudence begins in his youth, May, 1528, and closes on his death-bed, May, 1564. Here are letters
to humble pastors and also to powerful monaichs. Here the Reader is permitted to share his familiar
communings with Luther, Melancthon, Knox, Coligny, Conde, Farel, Viret and Beza, and to admire the
fidelity and paternal interest with which he addresses his counsels to the noble young Edward VI. of Eng-
land.
They represent Calvin in a differemt light from that in which he is commonly viewed. The private cor-
respondence of a public man, e.\tending through 36 years of an eventful life, afford a safe criterion of his
character, and these volumes show that Calvin was not that stern, severe, morose man which his Popish
and Unitarian enemies would have the world believe he was. He was a man of a kind, genial, tender heart,
yet uncompromising for the truth, and ready to risk everything for its defence.
It is a work which the wliole family, of Calvinists should have. In his correspondence Calvin exhibits
himself, while the foot notes throw much light upon his biography anil contemporary history.
AMONG THEIR LATE PUBLICATIONS ARE
Marrow of Modern Divinity. Price 80 cts.
This old liook, possesses not only intrinsic v.ihie,
but historical interest. It consists of two parts,
the first discussing "The Covenant of 'works and
the Covenant of grace," and the second consisting-
of " An Exposition of the Ten Commandments."
The notes, which are explanatory and quite ample,
are by the Rev. Thomas Boston, author of •' The
Four-fold State." Appended to the volume is a his-
torical account of the "marrow" controversy in
connection with the Scottish General Assembly of
1720.
The work is clear and admirable in its combi-
nation of the practical with the doctrinal and ex-
pository. The discussion is carrind on under the
form of dialogue, and the dramatis persona are
Evangelista, a minister of the Gospel, Is'omista, a
legalist, Antinomista, an Antinomian, and Neo-
phytiis. a young Christian. An admimble oppor-
tunity is thus afforded of meeting in detail and in
a conversational manner the details of objections to
Evangelical views. The work is both able and
instructive.
Sacred Lyrics from the German. 12mo
pp.252. With title-page in colours. I'.iceSl.
This book so attractive in its external appearance,
is valuable for more than its superficial advantage of
handsome binding, clear type and good paper. The
hymns are free from mysticism and rationalistic
vagaries ; »nd they breathe a devout and evangelical
spirit. The translators (among whom we find the
name of Dr. James W. Alexander,) have endeavored
to give the force and expressiveness of the original.

THE CHUKCH PSALMIST
Having been adopted by the General Assembly, the Committee have added to it a
SUPPLEMENT, containing 129 Additional Hjrmns.
By this addition the value of the Church Psalmist lias been greatly increased.
Whilst it would be fully to claim perfection for any sruch work, it may fait ly be stated,
as the opinion of men eminent not only for their ability to judge, but for the attention
which thn/ have given to the subject, that the Church Psalmist, as a Manual of Saored Song
for Public Worship, is unsurpassed as to its lyrical character, its sclectness and freedom
from all that is inappropriate or objectionable to a cultivated taste, its variety, and its
adaptation to devotional purposes.
The addition of the Supplement, whilst it enhances the value of the book, is accom-
panied by NO INCREASE OF PRICES, whicli are as heretofore:
12mo, plain sheep, largo type, with an Index to the first lines of all the stanzas of each hymn $1 00
l'2mo, roan, embossed, do. do. 125

A copy of the 18mo Church Psalmist, with Supplement, will be mailed to ani/ minister
or Church Cormnittee desiring to examine it with a view to introduction, on receipt of 39
cents in postage-stamps.
We do not insert the eulogiums of those who have used it. The issue of a fifty-fourth
erf2<20w sufficiently attests its acceptableness to the Christian public.

tunes, from all authors, found by inquiry to be desired by the churches. Edited by Mr.

318 THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860,
STARTLING BUT TRUE!
HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OINTMENT.
DYSPEPSIA.
The great scorge of this continent jields quickly to a course of these antiseptic
Pills, and the digestive organs are restored to their proper tone; no matter in what
hideous shape this hydra of disease exhibits itself, this searching and unerring remedy
disperses it from the patient's system.
ERYSIPELAS AND SALT RHEUM
Are two of the most common and virulent disorders prevalent on this continent, to
these the Ointment is especially antagonistic, its " modus operandi^' is first to eradicate
the venom and then complete the cure.
BAD LEGS, OLD SORES, AND ULCERS.
Cases of many years standing, that have pertinaciously refused to yield to any other
remedy or treatment, have invariably succumbed to a few applications of this power-
ful unguent.
BILIOUS DISORDERS.
The proper quantum and right condition of the bile is of momentous importance to
the health of the human frame, this anti-bilious medicine expels the hidden seeds of
the complaint, and renders all the fluids and secretions pure and fluent, cleansing and
resuscitating the vital functions of the body.
PILES AND FISTULA.
Every form and feature of these prevalent and stubborn disorders is eradicated
locally and entirely by the use of this emollient ; warm fomentations should precede
its application. Its healing qualities will be found to be thorough and invariable.
CAUTION ! — None are genuine unless the words " Holloway, New York and
London" are discernible as a water-mark in every leaf of the bonk of directions around
each pot or box ; the same may be plainly seen by holding the leaf to the light. A
handsome reward will be given to any one rendering such information as may lead to
the detection of any party or parties counterfeiting the medicines or vending the same,
knowing them to be spurious.
Sold at the manufactories of Professor Holloway, 80 Maiden Lane, New York, and
by all respectable Druggists and Dealers in Medicine throughout the United States and
the civilized world, in boxes at 25 cents, 63 cents, and $1 each.
There is considerable saving by taking the larger sizes.
N. B. — Directions for the guidance of patients in every disorder are affixed to each
box.
THE PRESBYTERIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860. 319
AYER'S
COMPODND mm OF SARSAPARILLA,
IS a saturated extract from the freshly expressed juices of the vegetable alteratives that
compose it, combined with salifiable bases of great alterative power. The process of its
manufacture is such as to secure perfect uniformity of strength, and it is as rich in the vir-
tues that compose it, as it can be made. Its composition has been determined by long-con-
tinued and careful experiment with remedial agents, upon the worst cases which we could
find, requiring an alterative cure. In order to determine what combination, and of what
medicines, is most effectual for the cure of scrofulous complaints, we have advertised for
such patients, to be treated without charge, and have cured great numbers afflicted with the
worst forms of scrofula, and scroftiloua difieaaea. Not a few who bad given themselves up
as incurable are now abroad in perfect health, visible and indisputable evidence of what this
remedy has done. As the result of these experiments we offer this remedy to the people, with
confidence that it will prove more effectual than any which has hitherto been available to
them.
What has been the effect of our remedy upon them, may be seen in the following descrip-
tion of their cases : —
Moses W. Chandler, of this city, (Lowell,) had been afflicted for eighteen months with a
running sore on his hip, which was discharging foul and offensive matter. It had reduced
his strength and general health so low that he was unable to work, and all the ordinary rem-
edies employed in such cases had failed to afford him relief. When he commenced taking
our Sarsaparilla the quantity of discharges from the ulcer was increased by the medicine ;
but in a few days it began to diminish, in three weeks it had ceased, and in five weeks the
sore had healed, and he was ready for work again.
Mrs. Jane E. Hopkins, of Cambridge, (Mass.,) had suffered from two ulcers on the neck
for a long time. They were very troublesome, and often discharged freely. Besides the two
ulcers that were open, she had a swelling on one of the glands of the neck which promised
soon to open also. She applied here for medical aid, and we gave her our Compound Extract
of Sarsaparilla, and also had her rub a very mild ointment of Iodine on the swollen gland.
The whole difficulty disappeared in a few weeks, and she felt such manifest improvement
of her general health as to show that the disease had been eradicated from the system.
Miss Emma B. Aldrich, of this city, (Lowell,) had a hacking cough, which, in connec-
tion with the prominent symptoms of a scrofulous constitution, indicated but too plainly a
tuberculous deposit in the lungs. The indications of tuberculous consumption were painfully
distinct in her case when she applied to us.
Mild doses of Ciikrry Puctoral palliated her symptoms ; while our Sarsaparilla, taken
steadily a few weeks, eraJiciited the deep-seated disorder from the system. In a little less
than two months she had recovered her health, and resumed her occupation.
Jacob Frederick Sigmann, of Detroit, Mich,, received a scratch on the leg while at work
on the new Custom House of that city, in July, 1 857, It soon became a very painful running
sore, affecting the entire leg and the bone. For seventeen months he was disabled from work,
and could only walk with great difficulty by the aid of a crutch. His constitutional strength
was constantly declining under the exhaustion of this scrofulous sore, until he became very
feeble. He tried our Sarsaparilla, and here is what he says : "Before I had taken the third
bottle, I throw away my crutch, and am now a well man. I wish this statement printed,
that others may profit by my joyful experience."
The truth of this statement is certified by J. S. Farrand, Esq., a well-known and widely-
esteemed merchant of Detroit, who adds : "Mr, Sigmann is enthusiastic beyond all bounds,
as he has cause to be, in his praise of your Sarsaparilla,"
Cavillers may see, if they will, that pay is not all the reward we get for supplying to the
people remedies that cure, nor is it by any means thechiefest- The gratitude of those relieved
from suffering often brings us more satisfaction than their money can give.
The world has been egregiously deceived by preparations of Sarsaparilla, partly because
the drug itself has not all the virtue which wanton assumption has claimed for it, but far
more, because many compounds, pretending to be concentrated extracts of it, contain but
little of the virtue of Sarsaparilla or anything else. During late years the public have been
misled by large bottles pretending to give a quart of Extract of Sarsaparilla for one dollar.
Most of these have been frauds upon the sick, for thej' not only contain little, if any, Sar-
saparilla, but often no curative properties whatever.
Hence, bitter and painful disappointment has followed the use of the various extracts of
Sarsaparilla which flood the market. Still we call this compound SARSAPARILLA, and
intend to supply such a remedy as shall rescue the name from the load of obloquy which
rests upon it- We know by its composition and by its effects that we furnish an effectual
remedy.
320 THE PRESBYTETIIAN HISTORICAL ALMANAC FOR 1859-1860.
Patients seeking for the cure, by this compound, of formidable complaints, should avail
themselves as much as possible of all advantageous change in either climate, place, habit of
living, or diet, as all these conduce, more or less, to the healthy action which it is sought to
restore. Consequently, any aid which can serve to assist in a cure, should not be overlooked.
Annexed are some of the diseases this excellent remedy has been found to cure ;
Scrofula, Tumors, Tetter or Salt Rheum,
Ulcers, Sores, Scald Head,
Skin Diseases, Ring Worm.
Eruptions, Pimples, Liver Complaints,
Pustules, Blotches, Enlargement of the Bones,
Boils, Bronchocele, Diseases of the Heart,
Goitre or Swelled Neck, Schirrus or Cancer,
St. Anthony's Fire, Female Diseases.Fits,
Rose or Erysipelas, Dyspepsia, Dropsy.
FOR PURIFYING THE BLOOD,nothing has ever been offered which can compare with this
Extract of Sarsaparilla. It is found a great promoter of health, when taken in the spring
10 expel the huiuors which rankle in the system at that season of the year. Many complaints
have their origin in the spring, and in the causes above mentioned, for which no better rem-
edy has ever been devised. By its use, multitudes can spare themselves from tlie endurance
of foul eruptions and ulcerous sores, through which the system strives to rid itself of corrup-
tions, if not assisted to do this through the natural channels of the body by an alterative
medicine. Cleanse out the vitiated blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through
the skin in pimples, eruptions, or sores; cleanse it when you find it is obstructed and sluggish
in the veins ; cleanse it whenever it is foul, and your feelings will tell you when. Even
where no pnrticular disorder is felt, people enjoy better health, and live longer, for cleans-
ing the blood. Keep the blood healthy, and all is well ; but with this pabulum of life dis-
ordered, there can bo no lasting health. Sooner or later something must go wrong, and the
machinery of life is disordered or overthrown. Medicines designed like tins for public use,
should be the very best that it is possible to produce. As it has been the labor of our life to
make such remedies, and as these are all we have ever offered, the public can judge some-
thin" of the amount of toil they have cost. Our ambition has been to make each one more
perfect, more valuable, more effectual than its predecessor, and the indications from this
sufficiently show that its virtues will sustain any expectations which our preparations already
before them may lead the public to form of it.
The rationale of its operations is, that it expurges from the system the foul distemper
which breeds and festers in it; penetrating into everj' part and organ of the body, it expels
the virus of disease that inhabits them. As commonly expressed, it 2)wijies the Mood, purg-
ing out the rot and corruption that scrofula breeds in this central pabulum of life. Purify-
ing, it renovates the blood, giving it a renewed vitality and force as of youth again. Hence
persons cured by it will feel younger and stronger, as well as freer fiom the infirmities of
a^e. It changes the action of the system ; its power is alterative, i. e., to change from dis-
eased to healthy action. Instilling fresh vigor into the vital forces, it gives them renovated
strength, while weakness is but disorder and decay. Weakness is poverty of vital power,
which, continuing to increase, must inevitably end in dissolution of the body, and much of
the feebleness so prevalent all around us among our people is attributable to the lurking con-
tamination of Scrofula.
Being composed of vegetable products only, this remedy is harmless as well as effectual —
a fact of immense importance to those who take it, for many of the alteratives in market have
mercury or arsenic as their basis ; and thus, although they may sometimes effect cures, still
they entail a countless train of evils upon their victims, often worse than the original
disease.
It is believed such i. medicine as this is wanted in the coijcmunity, and is sure to prove of
priceless value to the vast number in this country who suffsr from strumous diseases. It is
surely the best which our skill, with the study of years, can devise; and we shall spare no
pains or cost to make it the most perfect and effectual remedy within our ability to produce
for the prevention and cure of the everywhere prevailing distempers that require an altera-
tive medicine.
Price, $1 per bottle, or six bottles in one package for $5. Although smaller than some
others, it is so much stronger as to be actually the cheapest as well as best preparation of
Sarsaparilla ever offered to the American people,

Interesting to the Deaf. — For the benefit of our readers who may be
afflicted with a partial loss of hearing, we publish the following extract from
the pen of an eminent divine of our city. Speaking of the loss of sight and
hearing, the two most important senses, he says : " When men find their eye-
sight failing, they then resort at once to the optician and supply themselves
with artificial helps to vision — they are not willing to grope their way in dark-
ness, when science supplies them with the means of seeing clearly. Now it
seems strange indeed to us, that this promptitude to remedy the defects of fail-
ing vision is not witnessed when the ear is implicated and man's hearing is
impaired !
Deaf men, it is generally observed, are more sad than blind men ; and yet,
the deaf man can remedy his defect, in nine cases out of ten, with scarcely more
cost, and certainly not more discomfort, than the feeble-sighted. Why, then,
does he sit in silence, when he would not sit in darhness ? We asked this ques-
tion to-day while looking over the various ear instruments provided by modern
science to assist the hearing, and read in the book of Mr. Pugh Madeira, (No.
115 South Tenth street,) the numerous testimonials voluntarily recorded there,
of those who bore grateful testimony, from their own experience, that science
had succeeded in her task, and supplied the muffled ear with an instrument
that opens its obstructed passages to the incomings of sweet sounds and articu-
late enunciations. Let all afiected with deafness try the instruments thus
ofiered them, and we feel confident that one of the many scientific instruments
in the possession of Mr. Madeira will afford relief.

These Machines sew from two spools, as purchased from the store, requiring no re-wind-
ing of thread ; they HEM, FELL, GATHER, and STITCH in a superior style, finishing each
seam hy their own operation, without recourse to the haud-needle, as is required by other
machines. They will do better and cheaper sewing than a seamstress can, even if she works
for one cent an hour, and are, unquestionably, the heat Machines in the market for family
sewing, on account of their simplicity, durability, ease of management, and adaptation to
all varieties of family sewing — executing either heavy or fine work with equal facility, and
■without special adjustment.
As evidence of the unquestioned superiority of their Machines, the GnovER & Baker
Sewing Machine Company beg leave to respectfully refer to the following
"Having had one of Grover & Baker's Machines in my family for nearly a year and a
half, I take pleasure in commending it as every way reliable for the purpose for which it is
designed — Family Sewing." — Mrs. Joshua Leavitt, ici/e of Rev. Dr. Leavitt, Editor of N,
Y. Independent,
" I confess myself delighted with your Sewing Machine, which has been in my family for
many months. It has always been ready for duty, requiring no adjustment, and is easily
adapted to every variety of family sewing, by simply changing the spools of thread." — JLfrj.
Elizabeth Strickland, wife of Rev. Dr. Strickland, Editor of jY. Y. Christian Advocate.
" After trying several different good Machines, I preferred yours, on account of its sim-
plicity, and the perfect ease with which it is managed, as well as the strength and durability
of the seam. After long experience, I feel competent to speak in this manner, and to con-
fidently recommend it for every variety of family sewing." — Mrs, E. B. Spooner, wife of the
Editor of Brooklyn Star.
*'I have used a Grover & Baker Sewing Machine for two years, and have found it adapted
to all kinds of family sewing, from Cambric to Broadcloth. Garments have been worn out
without the giving way of a stitch. The Machine is easily kept in order, and easily used," —
Mrs. A. B. Whij>ple, wife of Rev. George Whip>ple, New York,
" Your Sewing Machine has been in use in my family the past two years, and the ladies
request me to give you their testimonials to its perfect adaptedness, as well as labor-saving
qualities in the performance of family and household sewing." — Robert Boorman, New
York.
