Peter's Church, Albany, as far as our knowledge at present extends, was the I. Kev. Thos. Barclay. This gentleman was chaplain to the fort in 1708, and read the service and preached to the citizens in Dutch. He officiated also at Schenectady, and for the Indians, until Nov., 1712, when the Rev. W^ Andrews came out as successor to Mr. Moor. Mr. A., however, had not greater …

In Nov. 1716, the first English Church in Albany was opened for service. It was a handsome stone building, 58x42 feet. The communion service presented by Q. Anne " to the Chapel of the Onondagas," during this rectorate, was, it is presumed, retained for the use of this Church, where it is still preserved. The Soc. for Prop, the Gospel withdrew its allowance soon after, the …

Y., and died Nov. 26, 1774, aged 51. His portrait is in the Vestry of Trinity Church. An attempt was made in 1763 and 1766 to have a translation of the book of common prayer, (prepared by Mcss'"s Andrews, Barclay and Ogilvie) printed in New- York by Weyman, in the Mohawk language. But the difficulty to print such language was found almost insurmountable, as there was not at …

America, by the Bishop of London, 8th of July, 1764. He succeeded the Rev. Mr. Ogilvie, as pastor of St. Peter's, and served the church until 1768. He then moved to the south, and was appointed, 30 May 1772, rector of Dorchester, Maryland. He died 2d May, 1784, aged 49 years, leaving a wife and seven children ; the survivor of these, a daugliter, is still Uving in Albany. She …

Munro, in a statement before us, classes thus : -- Attendants, 156 ; Communicants, 44, of which 30 were gained by him or joined the cliurch since his appointment, and he " had all the rest" (he says) " to reconcile or bring back, his predecessor having had but three communicants, wdien he last administered." Baptised since his appointment in Albany, 345 ; Communicants lost by …

PETER's CHURCH, ALBANY. was much courted, for it is said of him, that he was "as much above a mean action as an angel is above a calumniator." The old churcli, in the centre of State-street, was demolished, and the present edifice erected in his rectorate. Anno 1802, on the 26 of April, of which year, Mr. Ellison died. Bishop Chase, ot Ohio, studied divinity under this …

Having obtained the pre-requisite order of presbyter on 26th Nov., 1813, he was " instituted" on 3d Feb. 1814. His connexion with this church terminated in the latter part of 1817, when he returned to his native town and taught a classical seminary there for three years with great success. In 1821, he became principal of Erasmus Hall, Flatbush ; in 1823, was chosen president …

It is impossible to take notice of all the Absurdities, Untruths, Mistakes, Shifts, Evasions and things foreign to the purpose, with the other Defects and Imperfections which are obvious in the Answer made by Mr. Moulinars and tlie rest of his Consistory to the Petition presented to his Excellency and the honourable Council of this Province, by several Heads of families of our …

That all what they alledge in favour of their Rights and extraordinary Priviledges, and all that they object against me for to blacken me, and misrepresent me to his Excellency and the Council, all the venomous strokes scattered here and there in their Answer • all this, I say, is nothing to the purpose, and doth not in the least relate to tlie true Point in dispute between us …

Since then the Artifice of tlie Answerers hath been to turn off the attention of his Excellency and his Council from the true state of the Question, to run upon considerations foreign and remote from the Subject, and into Cavils on matters which have not given occasion to our last Difference ; I tliink therefore that it is proper and necessary to bring them back to an enquiry …

Now as this Instrument, according to the Copy wliich it hath been thought fit to give me of it, containeth the Reasons and Motives wliich have engaged the present Consistory to undertake to turn me out of my office, and to take all tlie Steps which those Gentlemen have taken in pursuance thereof j it would have been right to have produced this Instrument, such as it is, genuin …

posing & intermeddling in our Differences, That " they acknow- " ledge no Jurisdiction in any Civil Court within this Province, " over the private Affairs of their Church, merely Consistorial, "and amongst themselves, &c." Indeed! this is astonishing, and what could not have been expected. Here are, if I am not mistaken, the true Principles of the Independents^ (fe) so …

To Refute this abominable Principle, and to shew how false it is, and how contrary to tlie true Principles of Religion and the Constitution of our Churches, I need only Refer to the 46 Article of the first Chapter of our DisciplinCj compared with the 39 & 40 Articles of our Confession of Faith, & especially with all our Books of Divinity, as for instance, that of M^ Pictet …

Our Foundation is laid upon Freedom and Liberty of Conscience^ &c. pag. 4. But what! Is Qot this Privilege of Freedom and Liberty which they brag of, as much for Us as for Them? Have not we the same Right with them? And if 20 or 30 Persons, as they are, have a Title to it, Hath not the rest of tlie Church, which makes up, by much, the Majority, the same Title, with more …

Why did they make use of it to shut up the Churcli, as they did, on the 23d of September last, and to deny me the Liberty of performing there the ordinary Service of Prayer, and to deny the rest of the People tlie Liberty of assembling tliemselves there? Why do they make use of it still, with Obstinacy, to deprive above sixty or eighty Tamilies, who think themselves edified by …

FRENCH PROTESTANT CHURCH, NEW-YORK. 1163 " for every particular Congregation, voluntarily and freely united " together, and entred into an Agreement with their Pastor and " Minister upon a certain special mutual Contract, which when " either Party failed in Performance of their part of that Con- " tract, the other was at liberty, and freed there-from on the " other part, and …

The Jirst of these Limitations is, That if such a Principle ought to be admitted in some sort, it must be supposed likewise, that there is a competent and unsuspected Judge, who may determine between the two Parties, which hath failed and neglected to perform their part of the Contract ; For if it is left to each Party to have a Right to decide who is in the Wrongs and so be …

For if Pretence is taken from the least failure, or any sort of failure whatsoever, to break a Bargain made between Persons who are bound to one another forever thereby, at this rate, (taking every thing in tlie utmost strictness) we should r»pen the Door to all sorts of Breaches : All Marriages will 1)e dissolved, all Engagements between Parents and Children, and between …

(for I liave now touch'd upon the present Case) And hereupon each of the Parties might imagine …

The Third and last Restriction or Limitation which must be applyed to tlie Principle here advanced by the Answerers, is, That tlie Cognizance of ail these Differences, which often have an Influence on Civil and Temporal Concerns belongeth either to Ecclesiastical Judges, or to Civil and Lay Judges. So that where the Ecclesiastical .Judges, to whom generally the Determination …

But it belongs to them to shew in what I have failed in Performance of our Agreements : I have endeavored to fulfill them according to my weak Ability, and if every thing were examined in a strict equitable sence, I may one day let them see, that I liave done more than I had obliged myself to do, as well by the first as by the tliird of our Agreements • for as to the second …

And besides, who has ever heard that a Minister was deposed, and the payment of his Salary refused him, on account of ill grounded Suspicions, or words hastily spoken, and perhaps wrojigfully reported, and to which tliemselves may have given just occasion? Don't they fall thereby under the Censure which God liatli declared by the Propliet Isaiah against those that make a Man …

I find tliem very extraordinary in telling us, Tliat in such 1166 DIFFICULTIES IN THE case they do not pretend to have, use or exercise any Coercive Power to Restrain or Punish us for it, much less to Compel us to Return to them, 8fc. We know that very well, and we tliink it the interest of the English, both Episcopalians and Presbyterians to make their Reflections hereupon …

" They were not ignorant either (they say) of my Contrivances " to remove the Jurisdiction of this matter to another Judicature." W^hat is this Jurisdiction that I would decline ?

And on this occasion many things might be observed, which would not do them a great deal of honour, and which would revive some scandalous particulars, which it is convenient for them, should remain buried in oblivion; wherefore they would have done better to have said nothing of it, since likewise it hath nothing in common with the Affair we are now upon. For my part, I shall …

Peiret, who was a worthy Minister, lived in torment among them, as some very credible Persons who were his friends, have assured me; I know that they have put their Ministers out, and that they always pretended to a Power to do it, and that they will always attempt it, as often as the Fancy takes tliem. But the time is come, when they must learn, that they have not this Power …

Peter (1 Epist. ch. 5. v. 2, 3.) which instructs us all in our duty, and ought to make us think with humility of our own weaknesses and failings, their malicious Reflections will not hinder us Ministers from finding our Comfort in this Passage, while we find nothing in it, but what we study to do by the grace of God, according to our ability, and what we incessantly ask of him …

Instead of stopping at that verse of Ezekiel, and at the first part of tlie Chapter, where they have maliciously been searching, wherewithal to sting their Minister, and wherein M: turns his own Accuser, they had better have read on what follows from the 16th & 17th verses, to tlie 22d. inclusive, and to take good heed to what God saith by his Prophet, now no longer to had …

Eut not to speak of the Clergy, I say, that this general Complaint of the Corruption of Manners, cannot be better applyed than to tlie liorrible Scandals wliich we have seen all along break out in this Cliurch, and to the Disorders, Divisions, and other sins, against which I have so often cryed aloud, Esa. 58. 1. and which have, no doubt, drawn upon her the displeasure of God …

In opposition to this National Church they have entertained and fomented for several years a scandalous schism at Mew-Rochel, where the incapacity of providing for a Minister, obliged the Inhabitants ^o establish an Episcopal Church, thro' the Bounty and Protection of the Society in England, and tliey would still support this schism, if their M . . . . was not taken up in the …

But this must be examined and enquired into in due time. In the mean while, I give them notice, that they owe me One Quarters Salary, which is past, and tliat at Easter they will owe me Two. If I have not served them during all this time^ it is they who have hindred my doing it, by discharging me from my Functions, as they have done, and which they now dissemble through deep …

Moulinars doth me, in detaining my Chm-ch from me, by keeping the keys and by taking possession of my place, which is a remarkable Usurpation, for which I will demand Restitution and Reparation from him. They end with signifying, They presume that His Excellency and the Honourable Board loill Reject the Petitioners said Petition and Complaint, &c. But we hope that this …

Speaking of the French Protestants in the Kingdom of France^ they say, " So that it was not in their Power ever to Compel any " of the French Subjects to submit unto their Discipline and ^' Government, nor to Restrain or Punish any of their Number " who had submitted to their Form of Worship, Doctrine, " Disciphne and Government, who were minded to forsake " them, and alter …

Speaking of me, they say, " Such Contract we made with Mr. " Rou &c. and since he has been amongst us, whilst he behaved -' himself conformable to his Agreement, and for his Encour- ■ ' agement so to continue, did come to a second Agreement, &c." Here they would insinuate that I have not always performed my Agreement, and that there has been one time when I behaved myself …

no particular occasion of Anger against me ; And they have shewn to all People in the Town a great satisfaction of it, &c. So that it is their Passion and their Fanc}^ that makes them content or discontent about that, without reason in the last point, and we may apply to them what Horace says of himself, Ep. I. lib. I. Rides: quid, mea qiium pugnat scnlentia secum; Quod petiit …

Since when they have found me to fiagg in my Duty? if you will believe me, it is since this Governour has been liere, and they have found that lie did me tlie honour of granting me part in his friendship and Familiarity tho' I have no less performed my Duty in preaching since that time, than I did before j So that it is their Malice, Envy and Jealousie that has made them find …

That since they have found the way to my House, after they had passed this unjust sentence against me (of which I complain) to declare it to me in my face, why did they not take the same Method before they passed the same, to read it to me, or to send me, at least, those Papers which they had prepared to Condemn me, in order that I might have been able to defend myself, &c ?

What scrupulous Conscience can perswade them to deprive the Congregation who think (as I have said) themselves Edified by my Ministry, of the Pastoral Cares and Service of a Minister who belongs to them, whom they have called here from Europe, and have made perpetual Pastor of the Church ? We know that the Indulgence and Toleration granted by Law to scrupulous Consciences, is …

As much as I ean apprehend by the Answer which the Gentlemen of the Consistory have lately given to the Deputies who presented themselves before them, on my behalf, as well as on behalf of our Flock (which answer has been only verbally communicated to me, the Consistory not having thought fit to give it in writing, as in reason and justice they ouglit to have done) it appears …

As for my part, I don't believe they have been duly and lawfully elected, & I have laid the Reasons of it in two long Memorials that I have prepared upon this, and which, perhaps, will be produced one day or another. This being supposed, it is not just nor reasonable that I should be forced and constrained in my Opinion, or that I should declare any thing contrary to what I …

Upon the Third Article, I consent to hold my self inviolably attached to the Discipline and to the Constitution of our Churches, which I have always here-to-fore been, and as much as can be in this Country, where we have not the means which w^e have in France, to Regulate our Affairs. But I hope, that they themselves will hold them also attached to this Discipline and this …

Upon the Fourth, I have to answer, as I have here-to-fore answered on the same Subject, That willingly I will submit my self to the Decisions of the Consistory, so far as the Constitution and Discipline of our Churches require, and in all other things that are Just and Reasonable, and agreeable to the Word of God, to Truth, to Charity, and to Equity ; and I don't believe that …

It has been declared by some to be" the Washington Cent, but the probability is that it is a token manufactured at the time in England by some private speculator, and sent for circulation to America, and that the portrait of Washington, (which is very well executed,) was selected to give it greater currency. It is mentioned by Felt, Mass. Currency, p. 252, who adds that it is …

These specimens of antient colonial currency, belong to the collection of the Albany Institute. There is a notice in 3 Mass. Hist. Soc.

Our Sullivan friend's name for instance is written Hasbroque, Haasbrouck, Hasbroek, &c., &c., which is readily accounted for from the fact that a county of Dutchmen in the main were at the orthographical mercy of English clerks.

The famous " Old Dutch (Lutheran) Church," in days of yore located on " Horse and Cart-street," so called from an inn near by, bearing the representation of a horse and cart for a sign, but in latter days on William-street, has at last been prostrated before the march of improvement.

It is uncertain liow long this paper was continued; but it is supposed that the publication of it ceased before 1776, as in that year the printers are known to have joined the royalists in New York.
